The rain intensified, and the silver candles burned quietly on the desk.
Under the flickering light, two people stood facing each other in the room.
After a long silence, Lu Tong spoke, "How did you recognize me?"
She should have realized earlier; with Pei Yunmeng insisting on pouring wine, watching the zither performance and dancing, and even offering a shoulder rub, it was clearly deliberate teasing. Yet she had thought this was just Pei Yunmeng's nature, flirting intentionally with the summoned dancers.
However, she was wearing a veil and her makeup was elaborate, not to mention she hadn't uttered a sound. How did Pei Yunmeng recognize her?
The young man sighed and shook his head, "Other girls have eyes brimming with affection, but your eyes... they can radiate a murderous aura within a ten-mile radius."
He laughed, "Who could you possibly fool?"
Lu Tong: "..."
She truly wanted to blind this man right in front of her with a handful of ash.
