Cheng Feng shook his head, "I'd rather not. I much prefer staying alive."
Tong Yao touched her belly: Indeed! Living is good, she'd lived two lifetimes but had not yet become a mother.
However, after this experience, Tong Yao saw Cheng Feng in a new light. Previously, he had come off as a cunning business elite. Now, she realized that his real-world experience was relatively sparse.
This encounter could well serve as a start of Cheng Feng's growth; it might not be entirely bad.
Suddenly, there was a flurry of noise outside. The three of them exchanged glances and, seeing no one was guarding the outside, they went to check. However, just as they reached the doorway and before Tong Yao could stick her head out, she almost ran face-first into a disheveled woman.
Both Cheng Feng and Hu Haiyun jumped out of fright and quickly shielded Tong Yao behind them.
