Sincerity?
Lyra was taken aback.
She quickly realized the meaning of his words and immediately lifted her head to look at him.
He gazed down at her bright eyes: "No sincerity?"
"Yes."
She was afraid he might change his mind, so she immediately stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the cheek. This sincerity was not absolute, but it was a sincere way for Lyra to express her feelings.
However, now the man began to tally up what just happened, "You don't want to see me?"
Lyra quickly shook her head: "I was just talking nonsense."
"Nonsense?"
"Yes, I won't say it again."
She behaved very well because of what Morris said earlier, which gave Lyra a glimpse of new hope. She had thought about it; maybe he was just trying to fool her, but even if there was only the slightest chance, she would grab it.
"Seeing that you're behaving so well..."
Before he finished speaking, a sparkle had appeared in her eyes.
