Unlikely Aid

Nanyang's complexion was terrible, and her aura was much weaker than before. I stopped a few steps away from her.

Nanyang walked forward, and I stepped back. I raised my hand and gestured, "Stop! Let's talk like this here."

Nanyang's eyes were filled with tears. "Nanxing, are you afraid of me? Afraid that I'll harm you?"

I nodded.

There was no reason to sugarcoat things. Since I was young, I had suffered so much at Nanyang's hands.

In her current state, she was perfectly vulnerable. If anything were to happen to her, I would definitely be blamed.

Nanyang stopped. She seemed to have made up her mind. "Nanxing, don't worry. I'm not here to harm you."

I looked at her. I still couldn't put my guard down. "Alright. I'll listen." My body was on full alert.

Nanyang looked at me, tears falling down her cheeks. "Nanxing, I know you hate me. You hate me for how I treated you in the past. Will you forgive me if I apologize?"
