Fear, a bone-deep and all-encompassing terror, completely consumed Xiang Nai. In that moment, she even contemplated death. Maybe death is the only way to end this.
She had meticulously planned her approach to Lin Xiao, even betraying her own people to win his trust. She had believed that with his trust, she could slowly capture his heart, making him kneel at her feet. She had thought everything was under her control.
But she had never imagined that she was the real clown, that Lin Xiao had already seen through her charade.
