"Alright, that's enough." Han Suwen gently pushed Luo Lan out of the hug.
She stepped back and shot Hong Qing a plain smirk. She had stopped being sad some time ago. She had simply wanted to hold on longer than necessary, because who knew when this demon would decide to be gentle again.
Luo Lan looked him up and down, trying to make sense of it. Wu Han's face, now Han Suwen's name. "What should I call you?"
"Han Suwen, for now."
She tilted her head. "For now? You're going to change again?"
"Yes."
Both girls went quiet, turning it over. Was he planning to die again?
"Is that why you wanted me to kill you?"
"Not exactly." Han Suwen considered how to put it. "I didn't intend to lose. I just wanted to see how far you were willing to go."
Luo Lan listened without interrupting, her eyes tracking every word.
