Ah Yao picked up the Lotus Jade Pendant, staring at it in her hand as a whirlwind of fragmented scenes flashed through her mind. Her eyes suddenly reddened, her lips tightly pressed together, gradually revealing a look of hatred.
Could she actually be from the White Lotus Sect?!
"Ah Yao?" Perhaps due to the prolonged silence, Mingshu's voice came from inside, filled with confusion.
Her nails dug deep into the flesh of her palm, Ah Yao took a deep breath, glanced towards the screen inside, pursed her lips and struggled to keep her expression neutral.
She closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, they were calm and detached, her hand unable to stop trembling.
"I'm here." She hurriedly stuffed the Jade Pendant into her clothing and walked in.
Hearing her footsteps, Mingshu looked up at her, her cheeks flushed with warmth, her eyes upturned at the corners in an innocent look, and she complained casually, "Why did you take so long?"
