Alice can feel herself growing more and more tense by the moment. Thankfully she's learned to recognize the signs of it in this place, and although she still can't always control her own temper, there are moments where she tries. Like right now. Breathing in and out, trying to get rid of the cropped up anger in her chest until she feels calm enough to speak.
"There is no need for you to apologize. You were also a victim."
Which is why she has such a hard time believing that Xue Yang really feels regretful, honestly. If he attacked someone before back home, and then did the same here.. That's not a good track record so far. Who knows when he may attack someone else.
"I merely have a hard time believing that anyone who would harm innocent people, let alone children, could be a good person or capable of regret. If he is claiming to have regret, perhaps he is just trying to fool us all. Do be on your guard around him. If.." .. er. It's only now that her voice falters a bit, realising the condition of the man she's talking to. Considering the blindfold and all.. ".. If you are capable of doing so, that is."
It's not a statement meant to poke fun at him. It's a bit too soft for that. Maybe instead there's the faintest hint of worry.
