Lanling furrowed his brow.
Yin Ji's heart trembled as she said, "Have my pleas made you impatient?"
Behind these words was the implication: Is my status in your eyes so insignificant? Just pleading for Nini'an has already made you impatient.
"Your name," Lanling suddenly said. "What is your name in the Human Kingdom? Tell me, and I will spare the life of Nini'an."
"You, you bastard!" Yin Ji said.
Her anger was not because Lanling forced her, but because she felt that her weight in Lanling's eyes was too low.
Nini'an's life was insignificant in Lanling's eyes, and he was using Nini'an's life to trade for Yin Ji's true identity.
This represented that Lanling was merely curious about Yin Ji's identity, without placing much importance on it.
Thus, Yin Ji was indeed very clever, easily able to see through the human heart.
"Lanyin!" Yin Ji gritted her teeth and said, "Daughter of the ruler of the Night Orchid Duchy."
Lanling's heart trembled, but his face showed no expression.
