"N… no, that's not it." Qi Yue was thrown into utter confusion by the breath of him pressing so close; she hurriedly shook her head, pushed Situ Yan away, and took a step back.
She had always thought Situ Yan was dead, and that everything she once had was already gone like smoke.
But she'd never imagined she would actually get to see him again…
"Good, if you do recognize me, there are some things I want to ask you."
Situ Yan sat back down in the chair and spoke lightly.
Qi Yue was slightly stunned.
The man in front of her was indeed Situ Yan, no mistake.
Even though the way he dressed now made him look like a proper businessman, that icy aura on him hadn't lessened at all—if anything, it was even stronger.
It was just that that coldness seemed to be hidden beneath a safe exterior, but the moment she got close to him, she felt the air around them drop a few degrees.
She remembered Xiaonuan saying he used to be an assassin.
