He deliberately raised his voice, as if he wanted everyone around to hear: "We should end this now, announce the results, and let everyone go back to rest early. The result is already clear, isn't it?"
Xue Wei's tone was full of provocation, his eyes sparkling with the glow of victory.
Those smug smiles blossomed on his face, shining exceptionally bright.
He slightly tilted his head, gazing at Xue Zhao, as if enjoying any trace of wavering and unease she might show.
"You should just give up," Xue Wei continued, his tone full of mockery, "These years you've been away, you don't understand the situation within the clan at all. Now that you're back, what can you change?"
He deliberately stopped in front of Xue Zhao, whispering, "Look at the vote counts now, you've already lost."
Xue Wei's words pierced Xue Zhao like a knife, but Xue Zhao remained calm, her gaze unwavering, still firm and confident.
