well you gotta admit the guy is hella suspicious. MC is being cautious in a fun and lively manner since that's how he rolls. not the first time he's played the instigator.
I know but I’m just saying he’s a nice guy even if he got hidden motives underneath
exactly, NL trusts no one other than his family and group of brothers
apparently there's a twist about this character in the light novels
What’s the twist
Why Nie Li is bullying him like that makes me mad even if he’s the MC ┑(￣Д ￣)┍
