"Oh, nothing, just asking." Cheng Ziang shrugged.

"You, you're doing this on purpose to make me look foolish, aren't you!" Luo'er sighed.

"Is Melia planning to go solo?" Cheng Ziang turned to Luo'er to ask.

"Seems so, she appears to be planning to form her own army as leverage to seize power." Luo'er looked back sneakily at her, then turned back and admitted, "Honestly, I admire her."
