"Do you think I will do anything to harm you?" Luo Huian didn't answer the mer's question; instead, she asked another question. She naturally could not tell the truth to Qi Yongrui because she knew that the mer would definitely judge her. Forget about judging; it would be better to say that he would grow even more fearful of her.
And honestly, Luo Huian didn't understand why she cared about Qi Yongrui getting scared of her. In the past, she had never cared about anyone fearing her. If there were someone who was scared of her, she would have made fun of their pain.
That was how it had been.
But something about Qi Yongrui made her hold back.
Maybe it was because she was guilty, but somewhere Luo Huian knew that it was not just guilt at play.
Qi Yongrui parted his lips, but when he saw how serious Luo Huian looked, he pursed his lips, and after a short pause, he asked, "Does this have something to do with that metaphysical stuff that you cannot tell me about?"
