"You're right." After hearing Su Qing, Tian Qiu couldn't help but smile. "Since I'm sincere about becoming his apprentice, it's only right that I'm completely open about my situation."
After he finished, a blush crept onto Tian Qiu's face. "If I may speak from the heart—and please don't be offended, Su Qing—this is the first time I've ever formally introduced myself to a young woman like this. It almost feels like a blind date, especially with someone as beautiful as you. It's honestly a bit embarrassing."
Watching Tian Qiu's embarrassed act, Su Qing sneered inwardly. 'This Qiutian Sanlang is quite the actor. Putting on a face like that for me… does he take me for some naive little girl who knows nothing of the world?'
In truth, after confirming last night that Tian Qiu was a member of the Qiutian Clan, Su Qing could have dropped the pretense. She could have simply used the gray liquid in the dead of night, forced him to confess everything, and eliminated this threat for good.
