Outside the room, Hanguang Zhe was staring at the door with a complicated expression.
The moment Shen Yan entered, he had become invisible again.
Not in appearance, Invisible in existence. Like the world itself refused to acknowledge him.
He couldn't enter, couldn't cross the threshold, couldn't even properly hear the conversation inside.
The strange suppression returned, yet the moment he moved farther away, it weakened.
Hanguang Zhe frowned.
Something clicked. Then another thing clicked and he froze.
"Oh."
The realization hit him like lightning.
"It isn't just Shen Yan."
For months he had assumed he couldn't approach Shen Yan. But that wasn't true.
Earlier downstairs they had stood face to face without any issue but he had been too caught up in his own head to pay attention to it at that time.
The problem only appeared when Shen Yan and Qin Yue were together.
Hanguang Zhe slowly turned around.
