"Shen Yuan, I'm sorry, I really didn't expect things to turn out this way."
Lih Xiao had completely calmed down now, and while she was blaming herself, Shen Yuan noticed that her Feel-good Index towards him was changing.
60..61..62.. Finally, the Feel-good Index settled on 72, which was even 3 points higher than the original 69.
"No worries, as long as it's all clear now."
Shen Yuan was in a good mood now, waving his hand magnanimously before immediately showing his true colors, pointing inside the room and saying, "I'm a bit thirsty, let me in to have some water first."
"Shen Yuan, not this again."
Lih Xiao no longer believed Shen Yuan's words; his previous misdeeds were still fresh in her mind.
"I really am thirsty. I rushed here right after lunch, and my throat is parched. Just let me drink some water, and then I'll leave."
