Just then, a melodious voice rang out.
Fang Yue spun around to see Yun Qing emerging slowly from the shadows of the room, a faint smirk on her face.
"Yun Qing, you really are something else," Fang Yue said coldly, on high alert. "Did you plan all of this?"
Yun Qing gave a slight smile, not answering Fang Yue's question directly. "Fang Yue, you're very clever to have tracked me here. But some things are best left unknown."
"Fang Yue, you don't understand. This world is far more complicated than you can imagine. Knowing certain things will do you no good."
"So, you were just going to let me be kept in the dark, used by you all, and possibly even get killed because of it?"
Fang Yue's tone was filled with scorn and indignation; he couldn't accept being used as a pawn without even realizing it.
Yun Qing fell silent for a moment, her gaze deepening.
