With a complex gaze, Qin Yiren glanced at Chu Xinian, secretly assessing the influence he and Ji Manman combined would have, ultimately arriving at an answer she completely didn't want to face.
Thinking of this, her attitude slightly softened, as if recalling the sweet past between the two of them.
"Chu Xinian, even if you never liked me, I've been a diligent plaything. Watching me foolishly fall for you must be amusing, right?"
Chu Xinian frowned, seemingly not expecting Qin Yiren to say such heart-softening words.
Seeing that he didn't refute, Qin Yiren felt reassured, lowering her gaze to display her exhaustion, her butterfly-wing-like lashes lightly trembling with unease, her breath shallow as if it would disappear the next second.
Displaying weakness to the enemy, even though it was the last thing she wanted to do moments ago.
