The Night Watcher seemed unwilling to disturb the peace of this place.
Although the conclusion I'd just drawn sounded a little like wishful thinking.
But that was how clashes of presence worked. Only those involved could appreciate the subtleties.
This time, after a long deliberation, Lady Kelin couldn't help making the first move.
She'd even done it in a style that could be called tactful, far from the Night Watcher's usual forceful approach. That was why Fu Qian had arrived at the conclusion so easily.
