"Oh, once it comes back, send me a message." Yan Mo nodded and asked.

"Okay." Xia Yue nodded in agreement.

"You mentioned going for a swim in the ocean? The boat hasn’t arrived yet," Yan Mo said, looking at her.

"I suddenly remembered that the bloodline I awakened is a mix of the Dragon Clan and koi, which means I should be able to swim. So, I plan on going into the ocean in my transformed state," Xia Yue shared her plan with him.

Yan Mo: .... It makes sense, why didn’t he think of that?

"Without the system, I dared not go down by myself, so I’ll just wait." Xia Yue told Yan Mo.

"If I didn’t have to assist with their awakening today, I could have accompanied you." Yan Mo said.

"I’ve been curious. The first time I saw you, you were in a wheelchair. Why did you stop using it after we came here? Now you can even run around." Xia Yue asked curiously, looking at him.

Upon hearing her question, Yan Mo raised an eyebrow.

"If you don’t want to discuss it, it’s okay. I’ll just forget I asked. I’m heading back." Xia Yue quickly assumed that it was a tough topic and was about to leave.

"Why are you leaving so soon? I haven’t told you yet." Yan Mo immediately stopped her when he saw her about to leave.

Xia Yue promptly stopped in her tracks, looking at him and waiting for his answer.

"Let’s walk and talk." Yan Mo smiled at her and started walking towards the mansion.

Xia Yue followed his pace.

"The first time I met you, I was recuperating at home from an injury suffered during a mission, or you wouldn’t have gotten in contact with me. The wound hadn’t healed for long, so to avoid it rupturing, I used a wheelchair. After ensuring I was coming here, I had seven days to get ready, during which I healed at home. Therefore, there was no need for a wheelchair later. After the energy activation, all my hidden injuries were healed, and my health is in peak condition now."

While they walked, Yan Mo explained and then looked at Xia Yue saying: "Actually, if the energy hadn’t activated at the end, I wouldn’t have been able to do strenuous exercises for the rest of my life. This is why Commander Wei let me come here to help you complete the mission. Firstly, it kept me occupied and prevented me from falling into despair. Secondly, it gave me a chance to see if the rewards from completing the system mission had anything that could heal my injury."

"Oh, now I understand." Xia Yue nodded.

"So it seems that you’re my lifesaver. I guess I should thank you," Yan Mo said with a smile.

"How do you plan to thank me?" Xia Yue said with a chuckle.

"In return for saving my life, I should offer myself to you. What do you say?" Yan Mo briskly walked up to Xia Yue, stopped in front of her, and looked at her with a flirtatious, yet roguish smile.

Xia Yue looked at him, admittedly finding him quite handsome, which befit his reputation as a heartthrob during middle school and high school.

However, Xia Yue was clear-headed and knew he was only joking. So she responded likewise.

Xia Yue tilted her head and said with a mischievous smile: "Sure, but no take backs!

"My my, you are really clear-headed." Yan Mo pretended to be slightly disappointed and replied.

"Oh dear, I’m just being realistic. You come from a good family, look handsome, and are talented. Me, on the other hand, am just an impostor heiress of the Xia Family, average-looking, without grand ambitions or dreams, I’m content just idling, so it’s obviously not going to happen," Xia Yue said, looking at him.
