Qiao Li raised one eyebrow and looked straight into Shi Qin's furious eyes.
"Oh? So tell me—was it me who told you to sleep with a greasy old man?"
Shi Qin's face turned red with anger. She glared at Qiao Li like she wanted to scream.
"If you weren't so powerful," Shi Qin snapped, "I wouldn't have to use such disgusting methods! You forced me!"
Qiao Li let out a soft sigh. "Shi Qin," she said, shaking her head, "you had so many paths to choose from. You could've gone to another school. You could've become a teacher. You even have superpowers. You could've joined any special course."
She paused, her voice calm but serious.
"But instead, you chose to throw everything away. Just so you could get back at me. And for what? Power?"
Shi Qin clenched her fists. Her body shook with rage.
"My powers are fading," she growled. "And guess what? Yours will too. All of us from our generation… we lose our powers eventually. You think you're special? One day, you'll be nothing, just like me."
