Although she still had not gotten the "response" she wanted from Tiandao.

Chen Xing quickly adjusted her state of mind and returned to her usual cold, expressionless demeanor.

As if nothing had happened.

"It's good as long as you don't dislike it."

The more one cared, the more one had to pretend not to.

Although Chen Xing wanted to continue the "heart-to-heart" they had just begun.

She understood that if she really did so, Tiandao would most likely pretend not to understand and steer the conversation away again.

But it did not matter. She believed that if things continued like this, that dense "block of wood" would eventually reach the day when he could no longer keep pretending.

And she had more than enough patience to wait for that day to arrive.

Provided that a certain troublesome green-haired person did not show up too soon.

Otherwise, given how much Tiandao cared about that person, everything she did would be futile.

With that thought, Chen Xing made up her mind.

Though such methods were somewhat despicable.

There had only ever been victory and defeat on the battlefield; there was never so much talk of fairness and honor.

Since that Mechanoid Cat was still in the dark for now, and Tiandao was temporarily unable to tell her the truth because of the current circumstances.

Then Chen Xing had to seize this heaven-sent opportunity and do her best to preserve this "bubble" that could be pierced at any moment.

And strive to secure victory in one stroke before the bubble burst.

It was simply not yet time. She could not lay her cards on the table too early.

Otherwise, this "shadow" she had finally managed to catch might quietly slip away again.
