"Big!"
"..."
The woman did not turn her head, but Xu Yuan could feel a faint gaze rest upon him, slowly moving downward before falling silent.
"You..."
After a moment, the woman managed to squeeze out a few words, "The second question,"
the implication of which bore an undertone of frustration and defeat.
He wasn't wrong; it was indeed very big.
A light laugh emerged in Xu Yuan's heart.
As expected.
I have to admit that the trial of the Ancient Covenant, which aims straight for the heart, is indeed formidable. But suppose, just suppose, under Lin Qingque's training, I could even deceive myself. How then would you deal with that?
The woman's cool voice held a hint of annoyance.
She hadn't expected Xu Yuan to dare to tease her.
Xu Yuan's guess was correct; she was indeed deliberately making things difficult for him.
She could see that Xu Yuan's earlier remarks were a deception to the Guardian.
