"Master, I... we..."
Xiong Yingxiong's face turned red as he stammered, a grown man actually blushing like a young girl.
On the other hand, Xie Min, the girl, was much more straightforward. She calmly and confidently recounted her romantic involvement with Xiong Yingxiong.
After Xie Min had attempted to commit suicide in a lake due to heartbreak, Hero had rescued her and carried her to the infirmary for treatment. He stayed by her side ever since, continually comforting and counseling her. Over time, sparks flew between the two kindred spirits, and they fell for each other. Moreover, the relationship developed quickly. In less than a month, they were inseparable and intensely devoted to each other.
This was also why Xie Min was so determined to accompany Hero to seek justice from Dongfang Yue. She worried that Hero, upon seeing Dongfang Yue, might act recklessly and get into yet another conflict with him. With her present, she could intervene at crucial moments to dissuade Hero.
