"No! That's not right!!"
"Don't try using those evil arts to control my mind again!"
Somehow Mei snapped back, quickly pulling her blood-stained finger from her mouth. Heat rushed to her cheeks as she panted heavily, but her charming eyes still burned with humiliation.
Best to stay quiet. Yino had learned that lesson the hard way. In this situation, with Mei contradicting herself so blatantly, anything he said would only make her angrier.
Even before Mei captured him, Yino had begun secretly working to restore his cultivation. Just need a few more minutes until he fully recovered, provoking Mei early would bring him no good.
"Yino, say something! Stop acting all aloof!!!"
Her voice cracked on the last word. Mei seemed to be breaking down completely. Truth was, she didn't even know what she really wanted. These past two months had been hell, one month of force-fed drugs and Liuli's evil magic, the other month of Yino's nightly training that shattered both her pride and body.
