My Indifferent Heart Wavers for Lance

"How could I let a little thing essential to your job be destroyed by my power and not try to repair it?"

That echoed in her mind over and over. 

The blown glass sculpture was not essential, she had made it clear earlier that afternoon. That was the reason she didn't pursue the matter over.

But for Lance Hua to show such sincerity and seriousness to repair a small matter, inconsequential to her nonetheless, even the coldest heart of a practitioner of the Path of Indifference would likely still be shaken.

She didn't know why her face was suffused with redness, but she welcomed the sudden warmth that flowed in her veins as she realised the meaning of the gesture.
