70
In the sunlight,
The little girl looked at him, her eyes filled with soft, fragmented light, so dazzling that people couldn't take their eyes off her.
Shen Yanqing leaned forward slightly and stretched out his hand towards her. His hand gently brushed the corner of her eyes. He felt the warmth from his fingertips and could smell a faint warm fragrance.
Fresh and warm.
Shen Yanqing looked deeply into her eyes.
It was as if even the most hidden corners of his heart were illuminated a little brighter.
It was undeniable that Shen Yanqing was indeed tempted by her invitation for a moment, but that momentary excitement quickly dissipated like smoke, and he even felt a little amused at his own excitement.
Shen Yanqing's eyes were half closed. At this moment, he was more aware of the influence she had on him, and he looked up at her again.
“………”Ye Rong’s breathing was slightly stagnant, and her eyes were dark and lifeless, unable to reflect anything. They carried a sense of unknown danger, which was her true appearance after she had removed the disguise of self-cultivation.
While Ye Rong was stunned, Chen Yanqing had already withdrawn his hand that was stroking the corner of her eyes.
After a short while, Shen Yanqing returned to his usual gentle self. He said, "It doesn't matter to me where I am. I'll always be where I come from. It's good here."
“………” Ye Rong was not surprised by his refusal. For the pure-hearted and dying Chen Yanqing, it would be strange if he agreed.
Just now, when she saw a glimmer of light flash in those dark eyes, Ye Rong couldn't help holding her breath. For a moment, she had the illusion that he would agree to go with her. Unfortunately, after only a moment, the light disappeared and turned cold.
Ye Rong sighed, but didn't want to give up, so she followed him: "If you change your mind, you must tell me!"
Shen Yanqing said in a gentle tone: “Okay.”
It was as if, if she persisted a little longer, he might really change his mind.
Although Ye Rong was not surprised to be rejected by Shen Yanqing, she could not help feeling a little disappointed. In a secret base somewhere, the monitoring team members responsible for monitoring Shen Yanqing's favorability saw the numbers flashing on the light screen one after another, and almost thought they were seeing the light.
+11, +7.
After seeing the numbers on the favorability light ball, everyone was surprised.
Everyone in the Special Task Office knew that Shen Yanqing's favorability value had been rising tepidly all along, with few large fluctuations. But just now, it had risen twice in a row, and both increases were not low.
Looking at the number on the light ball representing Shen Yanqing's favorability, the leader of the monitoring team said, "Minister, the value of Shen Yanqing's favorability light ball has reached 59!"
The minister and the observer who were checking the information sent by the investigation team looked at the light screen above, glanced at each other, and saw a hint of relief in each other's eyes.
"Chen Yanqing seems to be kind and gentle to Miss Ye Rong, but in fact he never takes anyone to heart, even Miss Ye Rong is no exception.
. Shen Yanqing is a man of deep thoughts. After he realized that Miss Ye Rong's influence on him began to grow, his favorability did not change at all. I thought that Shen Yanqing's favorability would change only after the countdown ended..." The observer saw that the favorability light ball on the screen was no longer flashing, and his nerves that had been tense for the past few days relaxed a little. He smiled and said, "If Shen Yanqing has begun to face up to Miss Ye Rong's existence, it seems that the critical point of crossing 60 is also approaching."
Looking at the number on Shen Yanqing's favorability light ball, Minister Liang nodded slightly: "The change in Shen Yanqing's favorability value is indeed a rare good news for us."
As he spoke, a member of the investigation team came over with a new report and handed it to him.
Minister Liang took it and read it carefully, frowning slightly after reading it.
The observer noticed and asked, "What's wrong?"
Minister Liang tapped the table with his fingertips: "Some of Shen Yanqing's past experiences are still in doubt. It is possible that those who know the truth are suffering from mental illness. The key person, the old lady of the Shen family, is not a good point of intervention. Although we have checked the Shen family members who fled overseas that year, there is no valuable information at present. I think, if there is really no other way, we can only start with the old lady of the Shen family, even if this may arouse Shen Yanqing's suspicion."
"The old lady of the Shen family basically never leaves the Zang Zang Hall, nor does she contact outsiders. Our people are indeed difficult to approach." The observer paused: "Wait until Shen Yanqing's favorability is higher. Even if Shen Yanqing has some doubts, it will not have much impact on the mission."
Minister Liang also thought of this. He looked up at Chen Yanqing's favorability ball.
The number on the favorability light ball: 59.

After returning from the ancestral hall, Ye Rong went upstairs to wash off the smell of incense without Shen Yanqing saying anything.
When she came out of the shower and saw the cell phone screen light up outside, Ye Rong reached out and took it.
It’s a message from Sister Lin.
Sister Lin didn't say anything, but just gave them some time.
Ye Rong paused, then opened the system interface with great inspiration, and then saw that the number in the light ball of Shen Yanqing's favorability had changed greatly.
Ye Rong looked at the numbers in the favorability ball, thinking about what happened on the way back from the ancestral hall with Shen Yanqing, and roughly understood how Shen Yanqing's favorability soared.
“………”Ye Rong was a little surprised.
It has become increasingly difficult to increase Shen Yanqing's favorability these past few days, even the +1 that used to increase easily every day has disappeared, as if it was frozen.
Ye Rong was not in a hurry, he was just looking for a suitable opportunity.
However, she did not find the right opportunity.
So when she saw the number in the favorability light ball, she blinked, and blinked again. It wasn't that she was looking at him.
Ye Rong looked at Shen Yanqing's favorability light ball and recalled what happened on the way back.
There was nothing special about it. At first, Ye Rong just couldn't help but invite Shen Yanqing to leave. She thought it would touch Shen Yanqing's "boundary". Fortunately, he didn't feel annoyed by her "overstepping", which was an unexpected surprise for her.
So when Ye Rong saw the number in the favorability light ball, she thought of Shen Yanqing at that time and couldn't help but be distracted.
——"If I had met you ten years ago, I think I would have fallen in love with you uncontrollably."
Ye Rong would never think that Shen Yanqing's words were a warning. Shen Yanqing's words were just an assumption, but this assumption could not be established.
Of course, at that time, Shen Yanqing didn't look like he was teasing her on purpose, nor did he really like her. Instead, that sentence seemed like a half-true, half-false joke that he said out of the blue.
“………”
