Yu Xi's chest tightened. If Jian Ci saw this, if he realized what was happening… who knew what storm would follow?
He turned quickly, mind racing. They had to change direction. He had steer Jian Ci away from this place.
Meanwhile, Jian Ci was speaking with the attendant, oblivious. "What's wrong?" he asked, noticing Yu Xi's sudden shift.
The attendant bowed respectfully. "You left the psychic pool early, your highness. I just wanted you to know that you and your partner's psychic powers lit up the chamber. You are a perfect match."
Jian Ci chuckled, baffled. "You must be mistaken. There must have been another couple who came after us."
