Li Yifei briefly explained the situation with the Worm inside his body to Aoki Reiko. Aoki Reiko listened with a half-understanding but managed to get the gist, her small face full of a pitiful expression. She held her hands to her chest and said to Li Yifei, "Yifei-kun, I believe you can definitely overcome it, keep going."
Li Yifei shook his head, sighed inwardly. Although he hadn't intended to get involved with Aoki Reiko, the sudden occurrence of the Worm's attack just now proved some things. Looking at Aoki Reiko's appearance, she seemed not to have realized it yet.
Aoki Reiko waited for Li Yifei to recover, and after making sure he was okay, she gathered her things and left Li Yifei's room.
She felt she was the reason why Li Yifei felt uncomfortable, without considering why Li Yifei suddenly felt uncomfortable.
Back in her room, Aoki Reiko still felt guilty.
