Fake It Till You Make It

The once ignorant Lady Ren spoke as if she were Mengzhen. She knew everything about Weisheng without him ever discussing it with her. She even knew about his lifespan! 

Weisheng scoffed, "What use is keeping a front before you?" 

"I thought you were going to fake it till you make it!" Lady Ren chuckled in amusement when his character broke down to being the Supreme Demon Lord. 

"At this point, faking it might not help me make it," Weisheng explained, "You understand what I mean, don't you?" 

Lady Ren snapped her fingers and summoned her pipe, taking a big puff. Her face remained calm as she deeply thought about what Weisheng just said. Weisheng gave her time to think. He knew wise people needed time for calm analysis. 

Lady Ren's nail guards tapped against the pipe as she calmly thought about his proposal, also waiting to see if her silence would frustrate him or not. To her surprise, he sat calmly and waited for her response.
