Jiang Zhen narrowed his eyes. "Are you provoking me?"
"Why would you think that way if you are so confident?"
"Well, maybe you got bored in this house, and you are trying to pass some time. In that case, I can grant you the freedom to visit the garden. The fresh air will really reset your brain."
"My brain doesn't need to be reset. It's yours, and I am gonna do it. If you are not scared, that is."
He yawned. "Why should I go along with your crap? Maybe you don't mean to challenge me at all. Maybe you would be looking for a way to escape as you are outside."
"I am sure I won't have the liberty to roam around on my own. You can place as many guards as you want to watch me. Don't worry. I am not a coward like you. So, I won't run away once I have committed something."
He stared at her in silence.
"You seriously think you can stop my businesses? What gives you confidence?"
