Liu Qiu's eyes dimmed as she understood what Lai Mingjie was saying. It was too dangerous for her to get involved, and he wouldn't like it if she continued to get worried about them both. However, she couldn't bring herself to tell Lai Mingjie that she was already deep in it. She could only ask for his patience when everything hit him straight on the face.
If Lai Mingjie were to read her mind, he would even laugh. He knew that ordinary humans would never handle the fact that he was the legendary demon king who killed millions of humans in his prime. Moreover, that was just the beginning.
Since Liu Qiu only smiled at him, Lai Mingjie knew it would be too much to ask for her to stay normal around them. He only reached out and patted Liu Qiu's head. He really liked this auntie; such a shame she had to be involved.
