But now, since he already knows so much, I'm afraid it would still implicate Shaochen!
Perhaps...
"Actually... that's because, because... I..."
"What are you trying to say?" Nangong Yaoling stared deeply, raising an eyebrow.
"I'd like to hear, what else can you possibly explain? You used drugs for Situ Yan and took a sword for Liang Shaochen. But to me, you are completely indifferent!
Xia Xiaonuan, is it because you are too kind or do you want all men to be hung up on you?"
Xia Xiaonuan's whole body shuddered.
Was he calling her promiscuous?
Xia Xiaonuan's nose tingled as she had never expected such words to come from Nangong Yaoling.
She bit her lower lip, opened her mouth but felt her throat tightening with emotion.
Still, she spoke: "It's not like that... that's because, I am Qiqi."
Nangong Yaoling stood there, stunned for over ten seconds.
However, after those few seconds, he suddenly burst out laughing.
