"Is there a chance she's putting on a show, casting an Enchanting Array to dissuade us from linking it to Mai? Or maybe she's already figured out the secrets on my phone, and she's deliberately saying that to evade us?"
"We can't rule out that possibility, but she genuinely seems unaware of the surveillance device on your phone."
Yu Minglang trusts his instincts.
"That's odd, I haven't crossed anyone besides Mai recently, so who would be spying on me—hey, why are you looking at me like that?"
Yu Minglang is scanning Qian with an accusing gaze that makes Qian uneasy.
"Have you been enticing any undesirable attention lately? Like, inadvertently making someone fall head over heels for you?"
"What kind of nonsense are you talking about? When have I ever attracted undesirable attention!"
"You've attracted plenty!"
"It's just Mai, doesn't he look like an idiot standing there? Was I paying attention to him?"
