"Smart people should know when to quit while they're ahead, not poking and prodding..." Bai Kou looked at him, "Do you have a beef with the Guile Sound Knights?"
"Sort of," Xu Huo said. "But I haven't lost my sense of self enough to think about challenging Rank-B and Rank-A Players as a Level D."
"But you're going to," she said.
Bai Kou put down the gun she was halfway through assembling, her purple pupils fixing on him, "Why?"
"Mr. Fan Xiao," Xu Huo chuckled, "he treats you like his daughter, I can't just take his things and act unconcerned while watching you risk your life."
"You're just a Level D Player," Bai Kou said, her voice slightly heavy.
"I know, so what?" Xu Huo tapped his finger on the desk, "With all these weapons, isn't there one for me?"
Bai Kou looked at him steadily for two seconds before breaking into a smile, "Pick whichever you like, take your pick."
Xu Huo knew she intended to drag him into this mess, better to take the initiative than be passive.
