Ye Yu never thought that she was a coward or anything, but after what Xuan Yi had said, she felt goosebumps rising within her immediately.
If it weren’t that she couldn’t see any murderous intentions in the black eyes staring straight at her, Ye Yu almost would’ve thought she would die in a horrible way from this man.
——
After all, normally with people on opposing sides, when one person was to lay their cards to the other party, this meant the person being laid the cards would be nearing death.
Thinking of this, Ye Yu gripped her hand that was still free and forced a smile on her. While doing so, she tried to tug her restrained hand free.
“Your majesty, what is the meaning of this? I don’t quite understand.”
Xuan Yi still clutched her wrist tightly, not letting her back.
“After interacting with me for a while, I think sister Ye Yu should be able to figure out everything that I have been thinking about, right?”
“…” Ye Yu’s eyes slightly widened.
She almost instinctively said, “How do you know I can…”
She swallowed her words once she snapped out of her trance and reason took over her.
All sorts of thoughts ran in Ye Yu’s mind.
——
Just based on what happened this afternoon at the stall, no matter how intelligent Xuan Yi was, he would only be suspicious of her at most. There was no way that he would’ve been certain that he was able to “tell fortune” based on interaction.
In other words, before this afternoon, Xuan Yi should’ve known that she was able to tell fortune based on interaction.
Yet, before today, she had only mentioned it to this person once.
Or rather, she had only mentioned it once in this life.
“…!”
When she thought of a certain possibility, this made Ye Yu’s heart skip a beat.
If the pitfall system wasn’t virtual, she would’ve choked it to death by now.
“This is what you mean by that the “world had reseted 100%?” This is what you mean by that he will never have the memory of his past life?!”
At this moment, the system was also extremely shocked by the situation, unable to say anything. For a while, the system was unable to respond to Ye Yu’s interrogation.
In reality, however, Xuan Yi wouldn’t pause due to the interaction between her and the system. Instead, he inched closer to Ye Yu.
“At this point, sister still doesn’t want to admit it?”
Ye Yu clutched her fingertips tightly.
At this moment, because Ye Yu had relied too much on the system, she didn’t expect for herself to land in a situation where she was completely at a disadvantage.
She was unable to tell fortunes for Xuan Yi. she was unable to figure out how much he knew, what he knew, and how he knew it.
After a few moments of silence, Ye Yu slowly sighed.
She glanced up at Xuan Yi and she curled her lips, saying, “Your majesty wants me to make a choice?”
Xuan Yi was lost in thought after glancing at the woman’s smile and he was no longer familiar with her anymore.
“What choice?”
The power returned to the center, but Ye Yu was still smiling. “I guess…I either follow your decision or get killed?”
Xuan Yi’s gaze deepened.
He naturally didn’t want her to choose that, but he could guess the motive of why Ye Yu was saying this.
Ye Yu wanted to change the topic.
She wanted to shift the attention from the center of the issue towards a marginalized issue. Towards her, the issue wasn’t important.
Seeing that her plan was about to succeed, Ye Yu’s smile deepened. “Since your majesty knows that I have the ability to tell fortune, I will naturally choose to stand by your side.”
Xuan Yi glanced unhappily at Ye Yu and his black eyes seemed like a predator about to prey on her.
Ye Yu felt slightly guilty and then sighed with feelings.
She was unable to find any traces of similarities between the Xuan Yi and 500 silvers from her past life.
After all, within a few years, this person was great at hiding his true intentions and an expert at scheming. He could even see through her status and her past life. Who knows how long he had been holding this piece of information…it was indeed too frightening.
Thinking of the final chapters of 《Night isn’t evil》and how ruthless and cruel Xuan Yi was written as, Ye Yu felt her heart trembling.
