The cold moonlight from outside spilled across her body.
She did not walk to the door, just staring at Arthur who was leaning against the door, arms crossed over his chest. The long, black cloak was draped over his shoulders, giving him a casual and unkempt look.
“Why didn’t you kill your enemy?”

Arthur asked doubtfully.
Bai Weiwei turned to look at him coldly. She suddenly broke into a laugh. “Aren’t you insulting me? I’m completely unable to kill him.”
Blood Kin could constantly recover. With her strength she was completely unable to kill one.
Arthur sighed. “I’ll help you kill.”
As long as she lifted the sword, he would help her get rid of him.
Bai Weiwei eyed him expressionlessly, the suspicion in her eyes deepening. She scoffed. “What’s with you, didn’t you think that I disobeyed you? Weren’t you so upset you wanted to kill me? Showing this kind of attitude now, people who don’t know might think you like me.”
Arthur fell silent before nodding his head. “It’s a little true.”
Bai Weiwei: “What?”
Arthur: “Liking you.”
Two people stood beneath the cold, hazy moonlight. The silence dragged on.
Arthur suddenly couldn’t hold back: “Why aren’t you responding [1].”
Bai Weiwei retreated with a look of disbelief. “Respond?”
Arthur abruptly flashed in front of her. He cupped her face in his hands and kissed her roughly.
Bai Weiwei was so frightened she didn’t move.
After the kiss, he tightly pressed his lips together. After a long moment, he spoke. “Don’t you like me? Don’t you like me a lot?”
He had read all the materials from the interrogation.
The scribe also described what happened that time.
Humans couldn’t fight against the effects of the truth serum due to its magic properties.
It wasn’t a power humans could resist.
So everything she said was the truth.
She didn’t betray him.
She only stumbled upon that location.
He later heard her conversation with those rebels. Maybe she did want to join at that time.
But because he interrupted, she didn’t succeed in joining them.
And the reason she hated Blood Kin and even wanted to join those rebels was that she had enmity with a Blood Kin.
When Arthur first read in the report that she liked him, his brain went blank.

Immediately after, he felt ecstatic, but he suppressed that emotion.
He was afraid of being wrong.
So he found her enemy. She only needed to take revenge.
Then would she admit that she liked him?
Bai Weiwei was dumbfounded. She repeated blankly, “I like you?”
Arthur had never been so nervous.
If it weren’t for the lack of sweat glands, he probably would have looked like a loser of a human, his hands slick with perspiration.
He restrained himself. “You like me, didn’t you say that?”
Bai Weiwei’s gaze was blank, then flustered. She suddenly backed away, trying to flee.
“No, I don’t like you, who did you hear that from!”
Arthur gradually closed in. One person stepped back, and the other continued to pursue.
“Naturally, it came from your own mouth. Did you forget during the interrogation?”
Bai Weiwei anxiously blew up. “Who said that? Not me!”
There was a side effect of the truth serum; humans wouldn’t be able to remember what happened while they were under the influence of its effects.
Arthur recalled this, and his expression grew unsightly.
She couldn’t remember. Didn’t that mean she didn’t know what she’d confessed?
Then wouldn’t he be suffering too much of a loss saying that he liked her?
Arthur immediately flashed forward. He gripped her shoulders tightly, not allowing her to avoid him. “Say it. You like me.”
Bai Weiwei drew her head back. “Go away, I don’t like you.”
Arthur grew angry. “I said I like you. Why won’t you respond to me?”
Bai Weiwei felt her worldview being expanded. “You like me, so I have to like you?”
Arthur: “Obviously.”
Bai Weiwei broke free from his fingers and turned to leave.
But the man behind her clasped her waist. He lowered his head in silence, seeming to be struggling.
“Is it so hard to admit you like me?”
He complained in a soft, even aggrieved, voice.
“You clearly were the one who confessed first.”
He mumbled, seeming discontent that she remained indifferent to his confession.
Bai Weiwei finally couldn’t bear it. Annoyed, she hissed, “I like you ba, the whole world likes you. Satisfied?”
Arthur was speechless. Then he answered softly, “I don’t need the whole world, just you.”
