164 Fight Fair & Square (1/2)

At night, everyone had returned to their own rooms. The next morning, Bai Han awoke and left his room to eat breakfast, when he saw Yun Suyin and An Sun speaking to one another in the hall.

”Thank you.” An Sun smiled warmly at the girl.

Yun Suyin's heart pounded, and she bobbed her head happily before skipping away. Although Bai Han hadn't heard their entire conversation, he could see that An Sun's behavior suddenly changed.

He seemed to be acting friendlier.

What the hell was going on?!

When An Sun watched Yun Suyin's back disappear from the corner, his half-amused eyes gradually disappeared as he stared at her. Turning around, he was confronted with the glaring eyes of Bai Han.

Arching a brow, An Sun frowned slightly. ”What is it?”

Bai Han looked at him with crossed arms, his eyes narrowed as he shot an icy glare.

In a deep, chilling tone, he questioned, ”Since when did the two of you become close?”

By now, An Sun had realized there was something wrong with Bai Han. However, he still didn't know how he had triggered him this time.

”She's a nice girl.” An Sun replied indifferently.

Bai Han continued his one-sided, fierce staring contest, even as An Sun gave him a blank look.

”You are aware she likes you, right?” Bai Han's eyes narrowed even further.

In response, An Sun snorted contemptuously. ”Do you think I'm blind? After encountering all kinds of women around the empire, do you think I don't know when someone is interested in me?”

An awkward expression appeared on Bai Han's face. However, he still couldn't put away the unpleasant emotions within his heart.

”Then why lead her on?”

An Sun stared at the old man with a dark look in his eyes. He sighed and lazily leaned his body against the wall.

”Just because she likes me, does not mean I need to accept her feelings. Besides, she useful. I'm sure she's been around all the towns to know where the escaped women are. Why else do you think I would agree to their invitation?”

Upon getting this answer, Bai Han's eyes widened in shock. ”You…”

So that's what it was? He was purposely being nice to get information from the girl?

An Sun knew from the moment Yun Suyin laid eyes on him, that she had immediately fallen for him. As a man used to women trying to climb into his bed for protection in the army, he could recognize when someone liked him. Especially a feeble-minded, noble girl like Yun Suyin.

By manipulating the girl's infatuation, he could easily grab information from her along with shelter. Although it seemed cruel to play with the girl's emotions, Bai Han had to admit it was a clever idea.

While Bai Han processed this information, An Sun continued staring at him, his thin lips pressed tightly together and his hands curled into fists at his side. The small trace of warmth in his eyes disappeared and his expression turned cold and dark.
