Chapter 62: Heart-to-Heart Talk
She was an orphan, without parents, friends, or lovers, and was extremely indifferent to all emotions.
In pursuit of the pinnacle, she endured loneliness and lived her entire life as a loner.
Until her dying moment, all she could see was the hostility directed at her by the entire Qiankun Sect.
If she had one or two close friends, she might not have ended up dying by self-destruction.
Ye Fei took a deep breath. What she didn't have in her past life, she wanted to fight for with all her might in this life, whether it was family or friendship—
Li Yuan gazed intently at Ye Fei, whose expression was unusually melancholy, completely unlike the emotions of a thirteen-year-old girl.
According to the information Bai provided to him, although she was not doing well at the Ye residence, she had been secretly pursuing Su Haochen and hadn't yet reached the point of being completely independent...
But her expression didn't seem like she was lying.
After a moment of silence, Ye Fei composed herself and said, "I'm only saying these things to you. Just forget about them after you hear them. There's no need to dwell on them..."
"What else do you want to know about me?" Li Yuan suddenly interrupted her. Ye Fei was startled and raised her eyes to meet his gaze.
The girl blinked and chuckled, "You're talking with such a serious expression that it's hard for me to ask you anything."
Li Yuan frowned: "I always have this expression."
Ye Fei closed her eyes slightly and said, "There's so much I want to know about you... for example—your real name, and your identity."
Li Yuan narrowed her eyes slightly upon hearing this; she had seen through it after all.
Ye Fei opened her eyes and saw that he was silent. She smiled and said, "Everyone has secrets. There must be a special reason why you want to hide your real name and identity."
Li Yuan looked at her silently, without answering any questions.
"I'm waiting for the day you tell me your real name and identity yourself." Ye Fei didn't force him to say it; having said all that, it was best not to ask any further.
Li Yuan nodded readily, not refusing her: "That day will come."
"And what about you? Is there anything else you want to know about me?" Ye Fei asked him again. "Since we've been having a genuine heart-to-heart talk tonight, with give and take, why don't you ask me too?"
Li Yuan remained silent; in truth, Bai had already told him everything he wanted to know.
He thought for three seconds and said, "There's nothing I want to ask. I just need to get to know you as you are now."
Ye Fei tilted her head and looked at him for a while, then nodded with a smile: "Okay, whatever you say."
After a brief conversation, Li Yuan got up and left.
Ye Fei watched the boy's tall, departing figure, then suddenly remembered something: "I forgot to ask him what was going on with the purple light in his eyes that day!"
However… those eyes radiating purple light… she felt like she’d seen them somewhere before.
Ye Fei finally remembered that it was the man she met by the pool on the day she was reborn, and he had a pair of purple eyes!
Even now, Ye Fei still feels a little scared when she thinks of that man.
The man exuded an overwhelming aura of power; had he not been seemingly poisoned and injured that day, she certainly wouldn't have been a match for him.

The next day, Ye Fei and Li Yuan explained the situation to the First Elder and the Seventh Elder, asking for a few days off under the pretext of going to the Firefly Forest for training.
"You two are going to the Forest of Fireflies together?" Huang Rongyu, who was talking with the Grand Elder, was somewhat surprised when she heard the two's words. "Why do you suddenly want to go to the Forest of Fireflies?"
Ye Fei smiled and said, "I thought we'd go and gain some experience, so I chose the Forest of Fireflies. Don't worry, we'll be back in five days at the latest."
Su Haochen still owes her 500,000 gold coins. Since it concerns money, she definitely won't be away for long.
