He was usually very careful and vigilant, always keeping an eye out for any women with ill intentions, but who would have thought that such a moment of carelessness would allow such a vixen to succeed.
Thinking of this, Murong Liyue felt a slight pang of jealousy. The sour feeling spread through her heart, making her feel really uncomfortable.
But she also knew that she couldn't be too direct in front of Qin Luo, otherwise it would only annoy him, which would be a loss.
So, pretending not to see Dan Bingli, she slowly released her grip on Qin Luo's arm, then gently rested her body against Qin Luo's chest. A hint of barely perceptible loneliness flickered across her elegant face as she softly said:
