Xiyan froze, her mind went blank with a loud bang.
In her ears, Ou Jue's words seemed to echo continually: "Don't dodge me."
Xiyan's heart raced wildly. She quickly turned around, "What nonsense..."
Why would he suddenly say something so heart-stirring? Is this guy doing it on purpose?
"There's one more thing." Ou Jue's face suddenly darkened, the atmosphere shifted dramatically.
Xiyan swallowed nervously, her small hands clenched tightly, "W-What?"
"Who were you just on the phone with? Twenty minutes on the line—so chatty, why didn't you talk yourself to death?"
"..." Xiyan stared at him speechlessly, "Why do I have to tell you?"
Ou Jue kept his flawlessly handsome face stern, "Spit it out."
"It was my best friend. She'll be transferring to our school next week. We haven't talked for a long time, so the chat ran longer."
She truly doesn't understand why she's explaining so much to this Demon...
After finishing, Xiyan pushed the door open and walked in.
