8.100 Not Enough*

"I…" Ellen's lips parted in shock, unable to come up with any answer for a moment. "...Of course I am fine." He quickly regained his bearings and snorted in disdain like all the problems in the world were beneath him to care. "What could have happened to me?"

"Is that so?" Lu Yizhou answered lightly.

Those dishonest lips… How he wished he could shut them up and force them to spit out only the truth. If not for the information he had received from Cyrus and Luan last night, he would have believed Ellen's words for how convincing he was. Lu Yizhou clenched his fists tight although his face betrayed nothing of the frustration in his heart. He was actually asking the first question to test Ellen and as he expected, there was still something the man was hiding from him. 

He had no idea why Ellen suddenly decided to divulge this much information to him. Was it to make him lower his guard? Or… was he planning something grand?
