Jin's pupils, slitted like those of a predator, narrowed their focus on her.
Her heartbeat echoed loudly in her chest as she recognized that Jin was not one to easily forgive his enemies, especially when they had once attempted to take his life.
"What should I say? For the future?" she pondered, her mind racing for the right words. But outwardly, she maintained her smirk, but little did she know the corner of her mouth twitched involuntarily.
"What's the matter?" Jin inquired again, his gaze growing increasingly suspicious this time. She couldn't help but notice his once-relaxed hands slowly clenching into fists.
An aura of intimidation and fear seemed to radiate from Jin's very being, pressing down upon her. She knew well this skill, and there was only one meaning if this skill applied to her.
Had he now deemed her an enemy? Li Mei inwardly wore a wry smile, though she couldn't blame him entirely.
