"Hehe, why? Afraid your wife will find out about your dealings with that Dragon Clan little princess?" Huyue laughed even more gleefully.
"Scram, what do I have to be afraid of? I haven't done anything to betray Yan'er!"
"Then why were you so nervous just now?"
"Was I nervous? I don't think so!" Xue An retorted righteously.
"Not nervous? If you weren't nervous, why did you change the subject so quickly? Isn't that the guilty conscience of a thief?"
