"Brother Chen, tell me. In a situation like this, shouldn't I feel hatred?!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Yi just looked at him quietly.
After a moment of silence, he finally spoke. "Indeed, you should."
The ferocious look on Liu Jing's face faded slightly, his expression easing. "You think so too, right?"
Chen Yi nodded, his gaze falling upon the darkness outside as he spoke calmly,
"Hate all you want, but it was foolish of you to come find me."
"Foolish?"
Liu Jing faltered, his face instantly darkening. "Brother Chen, I was only indulging you with a few extra words because you seemed to know your place, letting you live a moment longer."
"But your words... they chill my heart. I feel like my earnest goodwill has been thrown to the dogs."
Chen Yi let out an incredulous laugh. "'Earnest goodwill?' Coming from you, Brother Liu, that's truly hilarious."
"You?!"
