Bai Zhi’er was startled.
She turned her head and saw Feng Fuce already standing beside her.
"You... how did you know I was here?"
Feng Fuce chuckled: "Don’t you know that I’ve always been perceptive?"
Bai Zhi’er lowered her head: "I was just passing by, and you happened to see , that’s all. I’m leaving now."
She turned to leave, but Feng Fuce grabbed her wrist.
Bai Zhi’er was shocked: "Let go! Be careful, my father might see us."
Feng Fuce found it amusing, his handso eyebrows teasing lightly.
"But before, you hugged in front of the Emperor, and he didn’t say anything, did he?"
Bai Zhi’er’s eyes widened: "If I had known you had ulterior motives, I would never have hugged you!"
Feng Fuce’s smile faded slightly: "Are you repelled by my affection?"
Bai Zhi’er’s struggles softened.
She licked her lips: "No..."
Feng Fuce’s eyes brightened up a bit more.
"So, were you here to secretly watch ?"
"No!" Bai Zhi’er denied imdiately.
Feng Fuce furrowed his brows slightly: "Then you dislike my affection."
Bai Zhi’er hesitated, stomped her foot, and admitted: "Fine, I ca to see you. So what?"
"This doesn’t an I dislike your affection, nor does it an I accept it."
"I’m just afraid my father will scold you, because of the Long Xiyuan accepting as a goddaughter. He will definitely bla you for not stopping it."
Feng Fuce laughed gently, quietly pulling her a bit closer.
He lowered his eyes and said: "You understand the Emperor well, he did bla, but wasn’t too angry."
"He talked to privately about sothing else. Tomorrow I have to go far away, probably—"
Feng Fuce pondered for a mont: "About five days, then I’ll be back."
Rushing to Peng County takes only one day and night at the fastest, handling the Second Young Master’s matters on the sa day, then return.
About five days.
Bai Zhi’er was curious: "What is it? Why do you have to go tomorrow? You just ca back, won’t my father let you rest for a few days?"
Feng Fuce said indifferently: "You tell your answer first, then I’ll tell you why I’m going out."
Bai Zhi’er was stunned, then pouted angrily, her beautiful eyes widened: "Why are you still setting conditions!"
"If you don’t tell , fine, I’ll ask my father tonight and find out anyway!"
Feng Fuce chuckled: "Then when I co back, can I get your answer?"
Bai Zhi’er’s eyes flickered, and for so reason, her face turned red again.
"Maybe... maybe..."
Feng Fuce’s cool voice carried a warmth and patience special to Bai Zhi’er.
"Actually, you can take your ti to think about it. I’m not rushing you, it’s just that my feelings for you naturally make anxious."
"But I know, as long as you didn’t refuse back then, it already shows that you’re not opposed to ."
"Take your ti, just don’t avoid because of this."
"I won’t force you, nor will I eat you. Next ti you see , don’t run so fast."
Bai Zhi’er’s face suddenly turned red: "Who’s running away! I was just walking a bit fast."
"So for this journey, be safe, and co back soon."
With that, she covered her face and ran off quickly.
Bai Zhi’er felt that Feng Fuce must have cast so spell on her.
Otherwise, why would she blush when she heard him say "eat"?
Ever since he confessed his feelings, whenever they t, it seed like they might hug at any mont.
The burning gaze of his eyes, she could feel it, and they weren’t opposed to touching each other.
Bai Zhi’er hadn’t answered because she wasn’t sure if this ant she also liked Feng Fuce.
Sadly, her mother wasn’t there, and no one could resolve her confusion.
