"Was seducing me over our video call also intentional? Did you see right through me even then?"
Ji Linyuan refused to admit he had failed so miserably.
"No." When the video call began, Lan Lingdu had not suspected he was an impostor. She had simply been in a playful mood, wanting to tease the man she hadn't seen in so long. She had simply wanted to watch the expressions of forbearance and restraint he struggled to maintain. However, there was no need to tell that to a snake like Ji Linyuan. She hadn't expected to realize something was wrong halfway through the teasing. Of course, when the call ended, Lan Lingdu had only been suspicious. It wasn't until he delivered himself to her doorstep that she knew for certain. She didn't even need to look; the moment he stood before her, she knew the man lacked the Wood Element she was so familiar with. Kissing him had been a ploy to lower his guard—otherwise, how could "Lu Yuanxiu" have obediently lain down as told?
