(Lian Li POV)
I surveyed the scene before me.
What used to be a proud and tall manor for the Xi Family is now nothing but burnt rubble.
A crowd had gathered to watch the city's law enforcers sift through the rubble, trying and failing to look for survivors.
"Quite thorough, aren't you?" I whispered.
"Ufufufu~ I'll take that as a compliment~" Manami giggled beside me.
We left the scene quietly, no one even suspecting that the cause of this incident was standing right beside me.
"So what are your plans today?" I asked offhandedly. "Master gave us the week off to do our things and I haven't the faintest idea on what to do."
Manami smiled at me, "Ara? I remember someone who was panicking at the news, asking if Master didn't want her anymore?"
I felt my cheeks flushed, "Ugh… I… I overreacted ok? Don't pretend you didn't panic a little when he said that too!"
