Helian Chengyan suddenly stood up, his fists pounded against the table surface, with his cold voice looming above her, "Chi Xingye, you're lying!!"
"...I'm not."
Hearing her continue to defend herself, Helian Chengyan kicked the chair behind him and marched toward Chi Xingye.
Upon the violent sound bursting in the dungeon-induced the maid and guard stationed outside to hurry over and investigate.
However, as soon as they popped their heads in, before they had a chance to observe anything unusual, the esteemed man angrily roared "Scram," immediately scaring them away, causing them to scramble out of the dungeon.
The dungeon was silent once again.
Only the steady, forceful footsteps of Helian Chengyan echoed within, each step pounding against the ground, issuing a cold and imposing sound.
Chi Xingye watched him stand still in front of her, her heart lodged in her throat.
Her fingers tightly clenched.
