"I understand," Lin Fu promised meekly.
Her fingers trembling, she looked back at Fu Xing, whose indifferent face and furrowed brows, tinged with faint anger, made him all the more daunting. At last, she realized that no matter how hard she tried, she would never truly stand shoulder to shoulder with him.
Their thoughts, lives, and concepts were all different.
They... were simply people from two different worlds.
In her eyes, murder was a grave sin. Despite not regretting it and firmly believing that Lady Nora deserved to die, she still felt the need to take responsibility for stripping away a precious life.
Being punished, she felt it was only right.
But Fu Xing didn't see it that way. He never referred to Lady Nora by name because, in his eyes, Lady Nora wasn't even considered to have life, let alone value.
She realized that she was still a lonely soul from the Ancient Earth Era, three thousand years ago.
She could never truly blend into their world.
