Wise people speak without needing to clarify everything explicitly.
Zhang Suqin was bewildered at close quarters, but Cheng Tie was different. He could see clearly that Xiao Han was very yielding, but that was not at all the style of the Heavenly Evil Doctor's lineage.
The closer he got to Zhang Suqin, the worse Qi Chuhai, given his personality, would treat her.
Even now that Zhang Suqin had come to her senses, there were already some grievances between the two of them, making it nearly impossible to return to how things were before.
This was exactly the result that the Sect Hierarch from Dragon Tiger Mountain wanted. Xiao Han understood this, and he did not explicitly say so. Cheng Tie understood as well and wouldn't explicitly state it either; instead, he would covertly aid Xiao Han in accomplishing all of this.
The two strikes earlier could have been avoided, but he had chosen to act. Consequently, Qi Chuhai's proud yet inferior heart absolutely couldn't endure it.
