After the banquet to welcome Chu Wanning back from seclusion after death, Chu Wanning goes to the hot springs to take a bath, feeling quite let down that Mo Ran didn’t make it to banquet in time.

At the hot springs, he notices there's only one person besides him but it's too steamy to see who is it so Chu Wanning swims closer, giving in sight of this person tanned muscular body.

Chu Wanning ears turns red from embarrassed because he never saw such a hot body, the man frowns and hurriedly turns to leave but suddenly slips and falls into the water making a big splash. He quickly tries to stand up from the water but a strong arm supports him and helps him stand up.

"Are you okay? The stones here are very slippery, be careful." the man asked in gentle voice.

"I'm fine." Chu Wanning answers coldly, both angry and ashamed.

When the man heard his voice, he suddenly trembled a little and wanted to say something but Chu Wanning already walked away, wanting to go away as quick as possible. The tall stranger quickly started following him, wanting to catch up for some reason.

Thinking that he is a pervert, Chu Wanning summons Tianwen and strikes him on the chest making a cut but the light reveals that this person is no one else than Mo Ran who groans lightly in pain.

"Mo Ran?"

Mo Ran probably wanted to appear in front of Chu Wanning immaculately and tidily so he decided to take a bath first then go to greet him. The result? Not only was it not proper, it was also ridiculous. Utterly ridiculous. But he also felt somewhat happy that Mo Ran is here.
