Second Rebirth: I Want Another Ending!

The boy stood straight in front of Zhou Yun.

His eyes are coal black and his skin was fair.

His features were definitely top notch to Zhou Yun!

"What's your name?"

"... Shi Zhen, Imperial Guardian."

Zhou Yun nodded.

The last name triggered something in the back of his head.

Zhou Yun just hasn't recall what it is…

He waved for Shi Zhen to come closer.

"Pour me some more tea."

Shi Zhen didn't show any facial expression, he indifferently took the small teapot from the stone table and proceed to pour the tea in Zhou Yun's cup.

The tea was not cold despite the weather so there were wisps of fragrance floating on top of the cup.

Shi Zhen's actions were crudely simple and effective…

Zhou Yun's heart inwardly turned sour.

Shi Zhen's behavior didn't match up to the kids his age!

Zhou Yun turned quite bitter. He had plans, it was to introduce Shi Zhen to Xueyu!

Xueyu would finally have a friend her age!

But... Shi Zhen's personality…

Zhou Yun doesn't know if he would make Xueyu's quiet personality worsen, as Shi Zhen was just as quiet as Xueyu!

Zhou Yun passively wanted to send Shi Zhen back…

Alas! He knew it too late for a refund…

In his conditions, he still couldn't afford to catch up to the other man… He spent all his time trying to replenish his soul energy, not his qi.

There wasn't much he can do, soul energy is crucial for the living, so it was right of him to prioritize it over qi.

He should have done his research before asking for the boy.

Zhou Yun sighed, but pick up his teacup nevertheless.

Shi Zhen was by the sidelines as Zhou Yun sipped his tea. He silently took in the surroundings.

The first thing he noticed was the shack next to the stone table set they were at.
