“Stay away from me,” Bella warned, but her voice was too dry and weak to carry any real force.
“Don’t be like that, sweetheart,” the man called out, his words followed by a burst of mocking laughter behind her.
Summoning her courage, Bella planted her feet apart, trying to recall the few self-defense moves she knew despite the fear gripping her.
After prolonged interaction, he had come to understand that Liu Bowen valued caution and gradual progress, while Zhuge Liang sought opportunity and favored bold, risky maneuvers. Each had their strengths, nearly evenly matched.
