Believe me, he was left with a few scratches on his face from that. With the noisy crowd gone Ji Yao turned his gaze to Huishe Yue who was standing behind him staring at him with a probing gaze.
Ji Yao disregarded this look and asked, "Are you sure you are not going to go all crazy on me after I activate my aether?" as he folded his arms across his chest with a nonchalant tone.
Huishe Yue found this amusing and suddenly had the urge to probe Ji Yao. "I swear I won't," he answered as he leaned against the wall watching him, "Do you have a girlfriend or someone you like?"
Ji Yao, "....."
He was taken by surprise because what did this have to do with getting this Nocru out of here? "That's such a random question and I don't think that's any of your business," replied Ji Yao with a stern look on his face. His entire body had tensed up like a porcupine that had its spikes standing up in defence.
