Luna, always primed for confrontation, found herself at a loss for words. Wang Xiao's accusation hit a nerve, suggesting vulnerability where she had always projected strength.

Luna's composure cracked, her face a mask of defiance turning to stone. "What are you talking about?" she demanded, her voice a mix of anger and disbelief as she swatted away his hands.
