Yuan Lin looked at Qiao Zhen, whose eyes held a hint of sarcasm. He was half-believing, half-doubting, because Qiao Zhen spoke with such certainty. "I'll kill him right now."

Yuan Lin drew the sharp Azure Dragon Sword from its scabbard and thrust it fiercely towards Yuan Zhao.

Chu Chu stood up and used her black and white striped arms to grab Yuan Lin's arm, squeezing out a childish, coquettish "Mmm!"

Yuan Lin was ultimately influenced by deeply ingrained ideas that had been ingrained for decades. In their country, this thing was a national treasure, both cute and precious. Who would have the heart to harm it?

In the few moments he hesitated, Yuan Zhao had already gotten up from the ground. He looked at the disheveled Qiao Zhen on the ground and asked, "You saved me, not because of me?"

"I'm about to die and you're still worrying about this kind of thing?" Qiao Zhen thought the person she was tasked with was crazy.

Yuan Zhao's cold, piercing gaze shot towards Yuan Lin. "The current me is the complete Yuan Zhao. All the accounts..." His gaze swept over Qiao Zhen.

Qiao Zhen thought Yuan Zhao would say, "Let's settle this together today," or "It's time to settle this," or even "I'll take your life in return." Her frail body concealed an excited heart.

But Yuan Zhao meant, "Let's call it even."

Qiao Zhen: WTF?? What does it mean to wipe all the debts clean?

"Are you serious?" Qiao Zhen asked incredulously. She felt like an idiot, using her limited intelligence to scheme against everyone, only to have Yuan Zhao give up so easily. "Are you kidding me?! I've spent months and all my savings arranging this and that for you, do you think I'm playing house with you?!"
