——Do you think he'll fall for you?
Qin Yu: "..."
This mockery is pretty harsh.
Jealous of the sword, eh?
"I know you're lying in wait to mock me for being narcissistic, right? But this time, I really wasn't. I just feel like I'm improving too fast. Haven't you noticed that he's becoming increasingly harsh with me? It shows that he's adapting to my progress and making adjustments. If this drags on for a few more days, he'll have to consider me a danger."
Either kill it in the cradle, or probe further. The more attention she gets, the more trouble she's in.
Having made her decision, Qin Yu went back early to bathe and sleep, preparing to say goodbye the next day.

What a beautiful early morning, clear skies and fresh air. Qin Yu washed her face, changed her clothes, put on her mask, and first went to visit the old man at the Secret Scroll Building.
