Arrogant, domineering.
The man dressed as a samurai displayed strong self-confidence. Yet Ye Zi knew it wasn't overconfidence, but true strength that he possessed.
Ye Zi was eager to join forces with Ye Qiu to deal with this guy, but Ye Qiu stopped her.
"Leave it to me," Ye Qiu said indifferently.
"But... I'm afraid..." Ye Zi hesitated.
You don't trust me, or do you think I'll definitely be defeated by him?" Ye Qiu's tone changed.
Ye Zi shook her head quickly, saying, "No, I'm just worried about you..."
"Don't worry, this is a battle among men. Just watch from the side," Ye Qiu stepped forward, shielding Ye Zi behind him.
At that moment, Ye Zi looked at Ye Qiu's silhouette, wanting to say that she was no longer the powerless little girl of the past. Now, she could protect him even if she couldn't do anything for him – at least she could contribute her strength.
