Were you also spying on me? Sneakily simping like the others?

"Mhmmm..." Aurora's lips pressed tightly together as she weighed her options, her resolve hardening. "I don't back down," she declared, her eyes steely.

"..."

Silence descended in the air like a heavy fog.

"Haha...." In a sudden break from his usual demeanor, Wang Xiao burst into a hearty chuckle at the sight of Aurora's unwavering determination, causing her to narrow her eyes in annoyance, her frustration growing.

"Is it funny?" She asked, her irritation barely contained.

Knowing his tendency to rarely show amusement, she couldn't help but wonder what had sparked such a reaction from him.

"Why are you constantly coming closer to me?" Wang Xiao finally blurted out, unable to contain his curiosity any longer.

For a while now, he had been observing the strange behavior of the creature before him.

Her movements seemed to have a purpose, her body inexplicably drawing nearer, her every action seemingly deliberate and calculating.
