Wu You'ai had once come over, carefully trying to discuss completely unrelated topics with Jing Shu. It was then Jing Shu realized he was worried she had gone deaf. He didn't dare to shout, fearful of affecting Jing Shu's mood, and had even sought help from his mentor, Chu Zhuohua. He was already prepared to try his mentor's method if Jing Shu didn't respond to their 'code'.
Wu You'ai, thumping his chest, said, "You scared me to death! At lunch, you seemed like you'd lost your soul. I mentioned 'airport' a few times, and you had no reaction..."
Remembering this, Jing Shu couldn't help but laugh silently. Fortunately, the ringing in her ears had lessened by then. If Wu You'ai asked her now, he might really treat her as if she were deaf.
Jing Shu made this bold decision, a form of 'self-torment,' to excessively use her Illusion Technique through continuous training. Practicing the Magic Cube amidst headaches and the roaring in her head was a decision made after deep consideration.
