The relief he feels at this statement surprises even Luo Binghe. It's just that no one else has understood. "I believed this mansion to be a trap designed by one of my enemies. Naturally I was attempting to find whoever it was I was meant to court. And you must know yourself to be striking.¹ I'm still not sure it isn't." When he suppresses his powers like this, his tolerance for alcohol is very low. His head spins. "It is either a gift from fate, allowing me a different life than what I was born into, or the cruelest trap I've ever known, and I am falling for it utterly."

¹Without the vocabulary to say it, what he means to express is that Janet also has important character energy. Like seeing a famous actor in an episode of CSI and knowing instantly they must be the murderer.
