Su Er felt a chill run down her spine upon hearing this. "Please speak," she said.
He casually remarked, "My reputation."
"What?" Su Er thought she had misheard and glared at him.
Jiang Siyan said in a serious tone, "It's only been half a month, and I don't know how I've become a person who is blinded by lust."
