"Um... Brother Ye, shall I go in and tidy up first? I forgot to pack some things earlier."

At the doorstep, Jiang Mian stood in front of Ye Chenyang, her eyes somewhat unfocused, and she spoke hesitantly, looking embarrassed.

Ye Chenyang looked down at her slightly reddened ear tips and couldn't help but let his thoughts wander.

It probably involves some private matters, so you're shy, right?

He smiled gently and said:

"Okay. Take your time packing, no rush."

"Uh-huh."

Jiang Mian gave a vague reply, opened the door, and then hurriedly slipped inside, slamming the door shut behind him.

Inside the room, Jiang Mian glanced at the underwear hanging on the balcony, neatly gathered it all up, and stuffed it into the wardrobe.

After all, these are the only things she can see, so she'll subconsciously choose what she thinks looks good, resulting in a wide variety of styles.

If someone accidentally sees it, that would be a disaster...

Although she could use her abilities to dry them quickly, these clothes were still close to her skin, and it always felt strange to wear them without letting them air out.

Therefore, she still separates the items for her clones from those for herself.

She didn't care about her other pajamas or anything else; everything was pretty normal.

Jiang Mian raised her hand and waved it lightly. A gentle breeze swept through the room, quietly carrying away the dust and making the air feel fresher.

She then turned around and reopened the door.

"Please come in."

Ye Chenyang nodded and walked in.

The room wasn't large, but it wasn't stuffy, probably because she had just "cleaned" it with her abilities, making breathing exceptionally easy.

The decor can be described as simple and unpretentious, but the furniture and everything looks new and clean, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.

The blankets on the bed were a bit wrinkled, probably because they had just been folded.

"The house is a bit small, please sit here..."

Jiang Mian pulled out a chair from under a small square table and sat down on the edge of the bed, though her posture was somewhat restrained.

Because she never expected anyone to come over, this chair is practically the only one in her house.

Ye Chenyang moved his chair closer and sat down next to her, breaking the silence first:

"Did Senior Xiao look for you when you came back yesterday?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Mian nodded slightly.

"Yes, we were talking about the training program, and..."

She looked at the bracelet on her wrist.

"I feel like he keeps staring at this. Is there something wrong with that?"

Sure enough, they found it by following the bracelet.

Ye Chenyang had suspected this before, but he didn't regret it; her safety was the most important thing.

Even though his identity has been exposed, he still has some room to maneuver.

but……

Judging from what she just said, it seems that she was reminding him because she knew he had a secret?

"It's okay."

Ye Chenyang said calmly:

"It doesn't matter if you see it. This bracelet is meant to protect you. Nothing else matters."

Jiang Mian was stunned when she heard this.

no……

What do you mean by "no one else matters except me"?

Did she just say those words so sweetly and innocently?

She had already felt a bit confused, and this sudden incident made her head spin even more.

No, no, don't let him lead her astray. She's not some innocent little girl...

Something seems off?

Jiang Mian crossed her arms, placed them on her thighs, and whispered:

"But... Senior Xiao should have already figured it out, right?"

To Ye Chenyang, the tone of the words was gentle, seemingly carrying a hint of worry.

A thought struck him, and he shook his head, offering words of comfort:

"I'm not some kind of calamity, I just have my own things to do for the time being. It doesn't matter even if Senior Xiao finds out."

These words, however, brought Jiang Mian to her senses.

Calamity...

Ye Chenyang is indeed not a calamity, but rather the pinnacle of humanity.

She's the one who should be careful. If she's exposed, the consequences...

It seems that he hid himself to facilitate his actions in secret, so that even if he were exposed, he would have some leeway.

Jiang Mian already had some vague guesses about Ye Chenyang's purpose.

Perhaps something really did go wrong over there?

How did he know that?

Foresight? Or...?

No, if that were the case, surely they would have some ability to recognize their own identity?

Unless you've never had any interaction with them before.

"That's good."

Jiang Mian lowered her head, looking somewhat relieved.

Now that Ye Chenyang is in the open while I am in the shadows, I don't need to worry about being exposed.

This inexplicable emotion is a bit troublesome; I don't know what's wrong with me, or why it's happening to me...

She had a vague sense of unease.

Are we going to get burned by this guy?

I don't want that kind of thing!

The room fell silent for a moment, but it was noticeably different from the previous awkwardness; it seemed to have become warmer.

Once again, Ye Chenyang spoke first.

"By the way, since Senior Xiao talked to you about the training plan, how did it go?"

He still keeps this matter in mind.

In her past life, perhaps she wasn't involved; she stayed here for some reason. This time, it should be different, right?

"I...I agree."

After thinking it over, Jiang Mian decided to try and extract some information from Ye Chenyang.

Otherwise, it will be difficult to handle if we don't know anything at the time.

As for the matter of "eating", she had some ideas.

The Calamity Core is an essential ingredient for crafting alien weapons.

Some remote aliens also require the Calamity Core as a "battery," which shouldn't be too difficult to obtain.

Just treat it as a pre-made meal.

As for other information, I'll have to figure it out myself.

She opened the bedside table and took out the train ticket.

"Senior Xiao gave me this train ticket. But I've never been to such a far place before, and I know nothing about it. I don't know if I can adapt..."

Jiang Mian stroked the card in her hand, her eyes lowered.

It seems that even after her internship and practical experience, she is still confused about the future.

"Don't worry about that. Your talent is top-notch. Besides... you're the [Eye of the Storm]."

"Huh?"

Jiang Mian showed a hint of surprise.

So certain? It's like you've been there yourself. Could it really be true?

"Brother Ye, is there any explanation?"

Ye Chenyang gave a brief explanation.

Although [Eye of the Storm] is only Rank 48, it is already an all-around support character in the early game, combining enemy detection, speed boost, control, damage increase, and shielding.

It can be said that it has all the necessary support abilities besides healing, and also has a certain degree of combat capability.

Everyone's smart enough to know the importance of such an all-around support player.

Moreover, abilities vary from person to person, and only a few dim-witted individuals would make a conclusion based solely on the ranking of the sequence.

"So, just let things take their course. I'll be there when the time comes."

Jiang Mian looked up and saw his serious expression. Feeling inexplicably uneasy, she lowered her head again.

Now that she's fully awake, she certainly won't do anything foolish.

perhaps.

Who knows what's wrong with her today? She seems to have inexplicably become stupid, constantly making silly mistakes...

"Gurgle~"

"Um?"
