"That's not going to work. Her mind is all on you. If I force her away, she'll just keep pining for you and won't say a word." Li Jian was stubbornly lounging around, even helping himself to half of Yaen Chi's water.
Yaen Chi was at the end of his tether. "You've got plenty of people who could get information out of anyone. It's not hard."
"Just because you have the ability doesn't mean you forget about human decency, right?"
Li Jian looked at the scene in front of him, scripting a melodrama of a lovelorn woman and an unfaithful man. He switched his gaze to Yaen Chi, clicking his tongue disdainfully. "Who knows what you did to her over there!"
Yaen Chi wished he could cut him down, but he couldn't win in a fight now. The scar on his back was itching and aching lightly; if he got too worked up, the pain would make him hallucinate, thinking the wound was splitting open again.
