"That's right, we are supposed to kill him..."
Song Lianhe's conviction faltered.
Seeing that she didn't dare to look at him, Zhou Cangyan scoffed. "What's the matter? Getting sentimental?"
"No!"
She tilted her chin up, her eyes wide. "I just... I just..."
'A human life, and the protagonist's life at that. How could I not be panicking?'
But Zhou Cangyan had no intention of letting her off the hook. He closed the distance between them, his imposing height creating a crushing presence. "Didn't you say you wanted to save your own life? Or is his life more important than yours?"
"Of course not..."
Song Lianhe steeled herself, clenching a fist and giving it a little shake. "I'm the one who's more important!"
'In this whole wide world, who else gets a second chance at life? It just goes to show that the heavens favor me!'
'And with the heavens on my side, as for the protagonist... if he has to be killed, he'll be killed... right?'
