Li Caiyi's body tensed all over. He wouldn't have asked such a thing unless he suspected her of something.
'Don't tell me. Does he think I'm a threat or something?'
Her fear had become a reality, even after taking care of Ye Zhong. Li Caiyi could feel her palm dampen with sweat as Dai Zhiqiang took a few steps closer.
"It will only take a second. I just want to confirm something."
The teenage boy reached out to touch her mask, and Li Caiyi evaded instinctively. Once she did that, her gaze and Dai Zhiqiang clashed, and that was when she knew she had messed up.
"You seem very against the idea of showing your face. I wonder if there's any special reason for it?"
Dai Zhiqiang's voice got even colder when he said the following sentence, "If you keep refusing like this, I might become suspicious of you. Are you sure that's what you want?"
Chill ran down her spine. Li Caiyi couldn't lift her face, let alone make a sound.
