His Secret

Kana stared at me for a while.

Then she broke into another eerie smile,

「Oh, so that’s how it is.」

She really was trying to trick me. Perhaps she’d read Lu Xiao’s mind when he couldn’t help but think of me.

She wasn’t sure what was going on, so she came to test me.

This girl truly wouldn’t let go of even the slightest clue.

Chen Qiao’s voice rang out: 「Mengmeng, where are you?

「My brother asked if you have plans tonight, he wants to treat you to dinner.」

Chen Qiao’s words probably completely dispelled Kana’s doubts.

I saw her quickly tuck something she was holding into her pants.

「Well then, big sister, see you if fate allows.」

The girl, seemingly smiling innocently and naively, turned and left.

My legs were so weak I could barely stand.

The hairs on my body stood on end and stayed that way for a long time.

For a split second, I saw what she tucked into her pocket:

A small silver knife.
