This wasn't sinking into desire; it was a sacrifice made to strengthen the Hero, for Jie Luo, for the commoners of the world, and thus she could not resist giving herself to Qin Chu.
Catherine tried to maintain her fragile self-esteem in this manner.
Yet, Qin Chu wickedly sought to utterly destroy her will, at least, in his presence, her self-respect was superfluous.
The smile at the corner of his mouth gradually faded as Qin Chu looked at Catherine.
Because Catherine leaned on Qin Chu's shoulder, this movement almost brought their lips together.
"Miss Yekaterina, could you step back a bit?"
"You're disturbing my cultivation of Fighting Energy."
Qin Chu's voice was indifferent.
Catherine's face suddenly turned pale for a moment, she hadn't expected that after all she had done, she would be met with Qin Chu's cold rejection.
