Xiaodong saw Xia Zhisu staying silent, thinking she was worried about Ling Tian'ao.
If they don't go out soon, Ling Tian'ao won't be able to wait much longer.
Xiaodong said, "There will be a way out."
Xia Zhisu responded with a soft "Mm", not knowing why, but with Quanquan nearby, she wasn't worried about this issue at all.
She felt that Quanquan was truly a knight sent by heaven to protect her.
Anything handled by Quanquan seemed to be easily resolved.
Xiaodong wanted to comfort her, so he said, "Azhi, let me tell you a story."
"...Is it the story of the old monk and the little monk?" Xia Zhisu asked speechlessly.
"..." Xiaodong said, "I think that story is very funny."
What's so funny about it?!
Xia Zhisu said, "Your sense of humor is really low. Let me tell you a story, once I was grilling fish in the Ling Family's backyard and burned down the entire Ling Family!"
Xiaodong gave an "Oh," "And then?"
