Lu Yi loudly retorted, his tone high but his commanding voice hid a hint of panic, which Pei Yansi keenly caught.
Pei Yansi saw the pale look on Lu Yi's face and couldn't help but sneer lightly, pulling the corners of his lips in derision.
"I'm just proposing my guess, you don't need to react so strongly. Or is it that you have a guilty conscience?" Pei Yansi's deep eyes stared at Lu Yi.
Lu Yi met his gaze, feeling his whole being trembling slightly.
"I haven't!"
"Enough!" Shen Heyu couldn't stand it anymore; she walked up to Pei Yansi, stood in front of him with her arms spread to shield Lu Yi behind her, her eyes resolute.
She was actually defending Lu Yi?
The smile on Pei Yansi's face disappeared at lightning speed; he frowned deeply as he observed Shen Heyu's determined look.
