Chapter 174 - 126 City Beauty Love, Would You Like a Drink? (2)
Everyone had left, only Rose Vesper remained, silently watching Qin Chu’s departing figure.
The resolute, unturning figure made Rose Vesper feel somewhat alienated—as though she could reach out and touch Qin Chu’s clothing if only she followed, but the unfamiliar distance seemed to grow more profound.
Recalling the words Qin Chu had said just a moment ago, Rose Vesper’s expression turned somewhat grim. She knew that her subconscious actions when Augustus was questioning Karsas had deeply hurt Qin Chu.
Although Rose Vesper felt it was a very trivial matter, this man seemed to be far more delicate and sensitive than she had imagined.
Of course, Rose Vesper didn’t care whether this man was hurt or not.
What worried Rose Vesper was whether this man, heartbroken, might distance himself from her, no longer being as close to her as before, which would be quite disadvantageous for her plans to use the Hero to elevate her status and resurrect Jie Luo.
Although there was Catherine, an insider planted beside Qin Chu, who could provide information about the Hero at all times and even influence the Hero to some extent, this was both good and bad for Rose Vesper, as it might elevate Catherine’s status and increase her influence within the Hero Team.
Moreover, Catherine was too dim-witted, and Rose Vesper seriously doubted whether this muscle-brained woman could perfectly fulfill the role of an insider.
Although the clever Asina had returned, only Rose Vesper knew how fragile the sisterly bond between herself and Asina was. This woman was cunning and full of schemes, not likely to be foolishly led by her like Catherine.
