Li Qingqing expressed her desire to start a relationship.
Zhan Hanjue frowned in silence, neither rejecting nor agreeing.
Li Qingqing said sadly, "I have no other extravagant demands. Can't you satisfy this small request of mine? As long as you agree, I am willing to give you half, or even all of it."
"Let me first see if the Thousand-year-old Tai Sui is indeed in your possession," Zhan Hanjue said.
Li Qingqing hesitated, saying, "Hanjue, I don't want to refuse you. But this is something I can't promise. If I agree and you run away with the Tai Sui, what am I supposed to do? I've dealt with you for so long, even if I've learned from you, I've gotten a bit smarter myself."
"I'm not as devious as you think. I just want to verify its authenticity. What if I agree to start a relationship with you, and you actually don't have the Tai Sui? What then, if you deceive me? I've known you for so long, I need to learn to be smarter too," Zhan Hanjue replied.
