Lu Yin could not speak. He saw the stubbornness, grievance, anger, and indescribable emotions in Ming Yan's eyes. What could he say? I'm sorry.
Ming Yan's gaze dimmed. "Leave. Don't come near us again, or my Father King won't let you off."
"He doesn't know who I am," Lu Yin said.
Ming Yan shook her head. "You're underestimating Father King too much, whether it's you or Yue'er."
Lu Yin's eyes widened. "You know?"
The corners of Ming Yan's lips curved into a radiant smile. "Lu Yin, to you people, am I a very foolish native?"

Ming Yan shook her head, then glanced back at Lu Yin. She subtly pointed at Moon Fairy and stuck out her tongue, looking exceptionally adorable.
Lu Yin was stunned. A single backward glance and smile could enchant a hundred beauties. How
