Seeing Lex chasing after him, Dian immediately swam even faster.
But Lex was stronger, and it did not take long for him to catch up. He blocked Dian's path and said in a low voice, "Dian, do not go. This is my own matter. What does it have to do with Nina? From beginning to end, she knew nothing about it."
"But you did all this because of Nina. Shouldn't she know the truth?" Dian argued, clearly unwilling to agree. "Brother, if you tell her, maybe she will see you differently. Maybe you will finally have a chance."
Lex's gaze dimmed. "Dian, if one day you became unbearably ugly, would you still stay by Nina's side with that face?"
Nina's mates were all exceptionally handsome. If he became hideous, how could he possibly have the courage to remain beside her?
"I…"
Dian fell silent. For a moment, he could not answer.
He cared deeply about his appearance too. Every time he went to see Nina, he carefully dressed himself up beforehand.
