"Mess around and your life spirals into ruin." The warning behind Xinzi's words couldn't have been clearer, making Tieshan realize how badly she misunderstood the specimen standing before her. It would be a lie to say that Tieshan didn't have her own petty ideas. Nothing as drastic as murder, but surely she wouldn't mind using some vixen tricks to possess Xinzi with the "honeypot."
But unlike Haoyue, Tieshan was experienced enough to know how to pick her fights, and firmly believed that any attempt to play Xinzi would only result in her getting played more splendidly. A part of Tieshan wondered if there was no hope for Haoyue, and how her connection to Haoyue would impact her relationship with Xinzi? Another part argued that it was all for the best. That the longer she allowed her desires to fester for Xinzi, the more likely things were to end poorly for all parties involved.
