He Jingyao was about to turn around when he halted at the words.
He smiled slightly, "That works."
Xia Xinyu was startled.
"Why don't I just stay here, and you can talk to me directly when you've thought things through?"
As he spoke, he looked toward the door guarded by his subordinates, raised his eyebrows, and walked over nonchalantly.
Xia Xinyu just stood there, staring blankly as He Jingyao passed by her side.
There was a moment when He Jingyao slightly furrowed his brows, seemingly because he was too close to her.
The men with scarred faces and the others watched him approach, on high alert, each aiming their guns at him, but He Jingyao seemed to ignore them completely. He calmly walked to the door, pushed it open, and went inside.
All the dozen men looked at each other, at a loss for words.
Was He Jingyao… walking into a trap of his own?

Su Zixi heard faint noises from outside.
