Wei thought about it and nodded. He knew Lihua cared about him, yet he doubted her. Of course, she would panic to hear the news. But somewhere in a tiny part of his heart, he had really wondered if it would affect her, especially when he had killed Jia.
Wei looked at her hand and hesitated. Then he slowly intertwined his fingers against hers, carefully gauging her reaction if she would get angry and shook it away. But she didn't.
'Just agree to whatever her hormones are making her say,' was Mingshen's second message.
Wei inwardly nodded.
"Y-You are right. I am sorry…" he guiltily hung his head.
Lihua stared at him, and a dam gushed out of her eyes. "Y-You...you... really think I am dumb…No matter who said that I was silly, you always denied it. But-but…" she gasped, "now you also…"
Wei blankly looked at her. He couldn't fathom just when he called her dumb.
"I never called you that!" He hastily said, "you know I don't think like that-"
