Xi Shaoqi did not respond to the opposing party's question at all; he merely conveyed a warning through his cold gaze: "A grown Man, why are you so cowardly?"
Frightened by him, yet mocked for being timid, Lan Luo felt even more wronged than Dou E. However, he dared not retort, knowing his brother so well after all these years. From the other's every move and word, he could perceive this person's mood, like now; he sensed Xi Shaoqi was in a particularly foul mood. Although the reason was unclear, he felt it best to play along and not provoke him easily—it was the wisest option.
Feeling stifled inside, Lan Luo obediently answered the other party's query: "It's still An Yuya talking by herself. Mu Bai's also acting strange today; he's been silent from the start, not saying a word. Could he be upset?"
Regarding Lan Luo's speculation, the ever-silent Xi Shaoqi merely cast a sidelong glance, showing no inclination to explain.
