“Why not today?” Ye Fei suggested.

Ye Fei felt that if he made an appointment a few days later, Xiao Yi’s family would have enough time to prepare and it would be easier for them to hide or cover up certain things.

So why not go now and take advantage of the fact that the Xiao family was not prepared to see what the real situation was like?

Xiao Yi did not expect Ye Fei to actually go right there and then. He was slightly stunned for a moment before he laughed and said, “Of course it’s good! I can’t wait for you to have a look!”

On the way back, Xiao Yi and Ye Fei talked about the world and he told Ye Fei all kinds of strange and interesting things that he had heard from the elders in the family.

He also told Ye Fei many new things that he had seen and heard along with his parents when they went out for training in the past few years, as well as the local customs.

Ye Fei could not help but sigh in his heart. The elders in Xiao Yi’s family had really traveled far and wide.

As the future heir of the Xiao family, Xiao Yi had been by the elders’ side since he was young. After so many years of accumulation, his knowledge and horizons could not be compared to those of his peers.

Ye Fei’s impression of Xiao Yi had changed greatly.

In the past, Ye Fei thought that Xiao Yi was just a playboy who did whatever he wanted with his money.

But now he realized that Xiao Yi was actually a pretty good person. Although he had a lot of flaws in his character, overall, he was not bad.

He was a friend that he could make.

Soon, they arrived at the Xiao family.

To Ye Fei’s surprise, Xiao Yi’s home was not a villa and mansion that he had imagined but was instead similar to a courier station.

As soon as he entered the gate, he saw all kinds of riding and transportation pets.

Xiao Yi had already explained to Ye Fei along the way, introducing to him the origin and habits of these pets, as well as their strengths and weaknesses.

He acted very professionally.

When he passed by a silver wolf, Xiao Yi suddenly became a little sad.

He did not introduce the origin and habits of the silver wolf as he did with other pets. Instead, he opened the cage door, walked in, squatted in front of the silver wolf, and gently stroked its head.

Full of love and pity.

Full of sorrow.

Ye Fei realized that this silver wolf was different from the other ordinary pets to Xiao Yi.

It held a very special position in his heart.

The Silver Wolf felt Xiao Yi’s touch and woke up from its deep sleep. It raised its head and rubbed Xiao Yi’s hand with the tip of its nose. Tears flowed silently from the corners of its eyes.

The gaze it gave Xiao Yi was also full of sorrow.

This was the first time Ye Fei felt such strong emotions from a pet.

Although he did not know what the Silver Wolf had experienced, Ye Fei still could not help but feel pity for it. He also quietly walked into the cage and squatted down to touch it.

The Silver Wolf did not resist, nor did it take the initiative to approach Ye Fei. It was simply immersed in endless sorrow.

Ye Fei finally could not help but ask, “What’s wrong with it? Why does it look so sad?”

Xiao Yi said, “I don’t know either…”

“Ever since it came back from the lost forest three years ago, it has been unable to eat. It doesn’t move at all every day, and it often cries…”

“I think something must have happened to it in the lost forest, but Little Silver here doesn’t know how to speak, and I can’t communicate with it either. I can only watch it become more and more depressed as time goes by.”

The silver wolf was so thin that it was basically skin and bones.

Even when it was being taken care of by someone, its condition was still getting worse every day. Until now, it was barely breathing, as if a wisp of wind could blow away its remaining life force.
