“You don’t want to?” Feng Tianlan looked at her puzzled, gazing at her slightly annoyed expression.
Her face, as delicate as snow and jade, was adorned with a subtle and alluring blush caused by her anger. Her eyes, akin to blooming peach blossoms, radiated a brilliance even brighter than the stars in the sky.
Feng Tianlan’s fingertip twitched as he restrained the impulse to touch her, his brow furrowing as he asked, “Why?”
Gu Qingluan laughed in exasperation.
Why?
Did she really need to answer such a foolish question?
They had no emotions between them, and their past was merely an accident. Being together like this, what happiness could there possibly be?
Seeing her getting angry without answering his question, Feng Tianlan asked again, “Why don’t you want to?”
So many women wanted to marry him. Did she know how many women would envy her for marrying him?
Gu Qingluan rolled her eyes. “I don’t like you!”
Feng Tianlan was taken aback. His cold eyes widened slightly as if he hadn’t expected this to be the reason.
However, he could also understand.
Considering how he treated her before, it was normal for her to be angry.
Anger would eventually fade away. As long as he didn’t treat her so harshly and coldly in the future, she might eventually develop feelings for him.
He stared at Gu Qingluan, his thin lips parting, “I will make you like me.”
“Huh?” Gu Qingluan reached up to her own ear as if cleaning it out. “Make me like you? You might as well go back and take a nap. This wish will come true very soon!”
After speaking, she turned around with a displeased expression and started to leave.
Just a few steps away, she suddenly remembered that she hadn’t asked about the whereabouts of the child. She immediately turned back, glaring at him irritably, “Where is that child, after all?”
“Wait until you marry me, and you’ll know.” Feng Tianlan’s eyes gleamed faintly.
“You…” Gu Qingluan’s frustration was evident. Suddenly, a playful spark ignited in her eyes. She turned back to him, a subtle touch of flirtatiousness in her peach-blossom gaze. Her captivating eyes locked onto his, and she encircled her delicate jade arms around his neck. With a slight upward curve of her crimson lips, she asked, “Do I truly need to wait until I’m wedded to you to discover the truth?”
She blew a breath of air toward his eyes.
In the moment her arms wrapped around his neck, Feng Tianlan’s entire body stiffened like iron!
The fragrance of a woman mixed in the air, landing on his eyes. He involuntarily blinked, his eyelashes fluttering like delicate b.u.t.terflies, trembling their wings.
His heart thudded like thunder.
His blood boiled.
A rush of heat surged to the top of his head.
His hand rested on her waist, wanting to push her away.
At the moment of exertion, he suddenly stopped.
Through the thin veil of her dress, he could sense the delicate softness of her waist, and a scorching sensation flowed into his fingertips.
His jawline tightened instantly, forming a taut line.
“You…” As he spoke, his voice, deep and mesmerizing, sounded suddenly husky.
Feng Tianlan’s breath hitched, his pupils contracting.
Seemingly, he hadn’t antic.i.p.ated even his voice to change.
Gu Qingluan saw his unusual reaction, a mocking snort echoing in her heart.
This sc.u.mbag, I didn’t expect him to be quite pure-hearted.
But since he treated all women as enemies, it was normal for him to be so lost in the face of a little temptation.
This would make it even more advantageous for her to act.
Gu Qingluan’s smile grew even more enchanting, and her delicately quivering long lashes held a hint of seductive allure. Her clear eyes remained fixated on him, never wavering. “Alright, I agree to marry you!”
Boom!
It was as if fireworks exploded in Feng Tianlan’s mind.
Immediately afterward, his body tensed.
A brilliant golden thread, as fine as a strand of hair, securely restrained him!
Gu Qingluan took two steps back, clapping her hands together, a proud expression on her face as she looked at her masterpiece.
This guy, daring to challenge her, still had some way to go.
Feng Tianlan looked down at what was restraining him —
A thin, hair-like golden thread..
