"Eh? What do you mean just recently?" Han Taiyi was confused.
"I lost touch with him for a few years after I left the Academy." Lillie casually admitted like it was no big deal. She proceed to tell Han Taiyi her fabricated reasons that she had formulated beforehand.
Every words that comes out from Lillie and Ethan were either complete lies or half truths.
In her guise as Shengming, Lillie indulged her new friend with answers and information that she wouldn't normally share if they were true.
Lillie wouldn't carelessly run her mouth off like what she was doing right now unless there's a deeper purpose for it or that it would be beneficial to their cover.
