"Sha Sha!" When no one was left in the living room, Nan Fei finally gave He Shasha a hug, "Are you okay? Did anyone trouble you after I left?"
He Shasha smiled like a cat that got the cream, full of contentnt, "No! I’m doing great, Huo Beijiang’s people are very reliable."
"That’s good."
"By the way! There’s sothing I want to tell you."
"Is it about Leng Ran?"
He Shasha was surprised, "How did you know?"
"Just a guess." In fact, Nan Fei already knew from Bei Jiang that Leng Ran was Yu Fengji’s informant, and she felt a bit relieved for her. But up until now, there were still so things she couldn’t figure out.
She understood Leng Ran’s precarious situation in the enemy camp, where she had no choice but to do what she did. Yet her intuition was always precise, and over the past half a year, she had keenly observed every point and detail during her etings with Leng Ran, and sothing still felt off.
It wasn’t about her actions, but the feeling Leng Ran gave off.
"Have you t her?"
"No! I wanted to see her, but she wouldn’t et ." He Shasha frowned, pondering for a mont before saying, "After all, she’s from the Leng Family, involved in many of their businesses. Even though she’s Yu Fengji’s informant, certain situations probably still need clarification."
A trace of hesitation flashed in He Shasha’s eyes as she looked at Nan Fei’s familiar face, knowing that this was the person she trusted the most. There were so things she couldn’t say to anyone else but Nan Fei, so she deliberately lowered her voice, leaned closer to Nan Fei’s ear, and was about to speak, but unexpectedly, Nan Fei leaned back, avoiding her.
He Shasha’s face imdiately fell, looking both bewildered and hurt, and she stood there dumbfounded, unable to react.
Nan Fei also realized that her unintentional action might have been inappropriate, and quickly explained, "Don’t overthink it, it’s my ears." She pointed to her own ear, "I’m not sure why, but ever since my eyes got worse, my hearing has beco exceptionally good. I can hear very distant sounds. Even the faintest heartbeat can be heard clearly."
It’s a good thing, but so noise affects her as well. While in Kannaya, because of the desert environnt, the whole country’s atmosphere was oppressive, and people spoke cautiously, so the impact was relatively small. After returning, the influence suddenly increased, leaving her feeling dazed all the ti.
He Shasha was stunned, eyes wide open, "How far can you hear clearly?"
At this, Nan Fei showed a sly smile and pointed towards Maple Garden across from them and in the direction of the kitchen behind them, "The conversations of Zuo Xinyao across from us and Jiang Yang in the kitchen, I can hear them all."
He Shasha didn’t know what to say anymore! Should she say that the heavens are fair? Nonsense! She’d prefer to have a pair of eyes rather than this heaven-defying hearing ability.
"Shh! Not many people know about my hearing ability. Even if so do, they won’t guess the specifics, so keep this a secret for now."
"Got it, got it." He Shasha nodded repeatedly, "I’ll buy you so more earplugs tomorrow, I heard there are many high-end products abroad that are both practical and good-looking."
"Alright." Nan Fei didn’t want too many people to know about her hearing ability, otherwise, she’d definitely be watched with strange looks. It would always give people the odd feeling of having their privacy secretly eavesdropped on.
She sighed slightly in her heart. When she first lost her sight, she worked tirelessly to adapt to the dark world, desperately covering up her blindness. She feared others discovering she was blind, but now she’d rather people find out she was blind than have them think she was a snooper.
