"I just knew, that's why I came looking for you." Xiao Ai dropped her face, exuding a faint aura of lifelessness. "I pretty much know what you're trying to do, but Chrollo is really not someone to mess with, and I don't want to provoke him."
Yezi specifically wanted an apology gift from her, and needless to think, she knew it was meant for dealing with Chrollo, but didn't she think Yezi was overestimating her capabilities a bit too much?
Whether past or present, Chrollo was never an easy opponent to provoke. Besides, if she really went up against him, what would she do if he were petty and held a grudge to mess with her?
Luo Ye glanced at her sideways, twitching the corner of his mouth. "With such high strength, you're still afraid of him?" It really completely wasted this combat prowess.
Xiao Ai wore a bitter expression. "But my brain doesn't work well." She wasn't afraid of a real, physical fight; what she feared was scheming and plotting, and Chrollo was most famous for his intellect. She could beat him in a fight, but she couldn't outsmart him!
She couldn't actually kill Chrollo either, so inevitably she found herself bound hand and foot, not daring to go too far.
Luo Ye choked for a moment. That was indeed the truth; Xiao Ai really was hopelessly foolish, but just let Chrollo off like this? Wouldn't that make him feel far too aggrieved?
Seeing his expression loosen somewhat, Xiao Ai hurriedly struck while the iron was hot. "How about this? You really were wronged, so I'll help you enchant that ring with HP Lock, take this as a gift from me, and give you a Greater Healing as compensation, how about that?"
She knew Yezi was furious about Chrollo
