In one breath’s time, Chen Xiaolian ran out of the corridor. Turning around, he saw the emotionless and indifferent expression on Bai Qi’s face.
His heart tensed before easing up.
At least his initial assumption was correct: Bai Qi was not showing any indication that he will attack Chen Xiaolian.
It seems… with the Tiger Tally in my hands, Bai Qi will not attack me?
Looking forward, he saw that he had arrived at the gates of the side palace building. Chen Xiaolian smiled bitterly as he pushed open the gates and rushed into the central open square area.
“I did not expect that… I would return here.”
Chen Xiaolian strode outwards and stood atop the stairs. Turning around, he saw that Bai Qi was following right behind him. The gates behind them closed with a bang.
Bai Qi extended his hand out. “Return it to me.”
“Do you have any other fixed lines of dialogue other than that?” Chen Xiaolian deliberately smiled and retreated.
