Actually, Luo Yang somewhat hopes Hua XiYi sees him as having a negative IQ, because then he would have more confidence in securing the Blood Devil in future competitions.
Currently, Hua XiYi is getting more and more feelings for Luo Yang; she really has begun to like him.
This leaves Luo Yang very conflicted.
Winning the heart of a beauty, that's supposed to be a good thing.
The problem is, Luo Yang wants the Blood Devil, and Hua XiYi also wants the Blood Devil.
In this way, the two of them are essentially competitors.
Though they may be in love now, they might clash fiercely for the Blood Devil in the future.
If that were to happen, Luo Yang would rather Hua XiYi never liked him at all.
Otherwise, loving and fighting each other would be truly heartbreaking.
Hua XiYi hasn't noticed Luo Yang's true intentions; she somewhat underestimates him, thinking she's got him figured out.
As the saying goes: being overconfident may lead to losing.
