Since this morning when Yang Xiao was taken away by the fat man, David and Qin Lu couldn't focus while playing chess. After playing two rounds, they stopped playing altogether.
Both speculated various possibilities, feeling uneasy and worried about Yang Xiao encountering any mishaps.
In the afternoon, David became even more restless, frequently stepping out of the inn to check the surroundings, and later simply sat with Qin Lu in the lobby playing chess, occasionally glancing outside.
When the spaceship landed in front of the gate, they had already rushed outside. As they saw Yang Xiao descend from the spaceship, a weight was lifted off their hearts.
After the fat man left on the spaceship, the two hurried over to Yang Xiao, excitedly asking:
"Yang, Master Yang, are you alright?"
Suddenly, David realized how much he cared about Yang Xiao.
Of course, this concern was more like fearing a borrowed treasure might not be returned.
