Liu Ji was even more perplexed.
Though knowing his daughter's friend has an aunt who is an empress is quite shocking.
But still!
Who is Qin Yao?
She's the kind of woman who doesn't bat an eyelid when killing, as unshakable as a mountain even if the sky falls, one who contemptuously regards mere mortals like them!
Is there anything or anyone in this world that could make her palms sweat?
"Did the Holy Empress scare you?" Liu Ji asked skeptically.
Besides that, he couldn't think of another reason that could have made her palms sweat.
To Liu Ji's surprise, he expected her to scoff disdainfully and then ridicule him for overthinking.
But to his utter astonishment, Qin Yao actually nodded solemnly, "Yes, she scared me."
If she guessed correctly, she also scared Xu Wenqing quite a bit.
The tremor from deep within the soul made her hair stand on end.
Having locked eyes, she confirmed that Xu Wenqing isn't from this world either!
