Ye Hongyu was speaking nonsense, and that was the reason why Ning Que did not understand her.
Although Ye Hongyu spoke with a southern accent, it was in the standard Central Plain language. Ning Que said that she was speaking nonsense not because he did not understand, but because he had to pretend so at this point in time.
He was very calm, and even a little bit confused. In fact, his body had stiffened like a block of wood when he heard the words 'joined the Devil' and his heart had almost stopped beating.
Ye Hongyu closed the book on the table, keeping the paper sword in the book safe from the autumn breeze. She looked at Ning Que who sat quietly under the tree and said, "You would be able to earn money if you pursue acting."
Ning Que thought that she was being lame, so he waved his hands at her in denial, not wanting to respond to what she said.
