章 786: Stop Deluding Yourself

Looking at the sorry figure of the man before her eyes, Liu Nuan's suspicion turned to reality. This time, she had no doubt that she was finished. However, she didn't plan on going down just like that!

"You know him?" questioned Xiao Li with no emotion in his voice.

"I don't," Liu Nuan denied it outright. "Who is he?"

Xiao Li pinched her chin and looked into her eyes, "So you don't know who he is?" 

She didn't back off, "I don't know. Why are you asking me? How would I know him?"

"So you're not the one who hired the mercenaries through this man?" Xiao Li's voice was chilly, now tinged with a furious undertone. "To kill Xiu."

Liu Nuan was scared out of her wits but she didn't accept defeat. She knew if she did, it'd be the end of her.

"W-Why would I hire someone to kill Xiu?" she retorted. "Don't try to blame me for something I didn't do. The attack on Xiu has nothing to do with me."
