Chapter 368 - You’ve Mistaken Me for Someone Else (2/2)
It was only upon this visit that Alva realized that this place was incredibly shabby.

How could a female live in a house like this?
Alva wished he could carry her to his own house. This place was total proof of how he had been mistreating Bai Qingqing.
“Qingqing, I talked things over with Bella just now. From now onwards, the two of us have nothing to do with each other,” Alva said.

Wrapping herself with animal skin, Bai Qingqing looked up with her reddened eyes and cast an incredulous glance at Alva.
The peacock tribe placed more importance on appearances than the other tribes. But the fact that even the males were so fickle made Bai Qingqing felt incredulous.
“That’s your matter and has nothing to do with me. Go out now. I don’t wish to see you.” Bai Qingqing’s voice sounded stuffy as she started to pack what little luggage she had.
The anxious Alva knelt by Bai Qingqing’s side on one knee and said as he grabbed her hand, “You’re leaving? No, don’t leave the village.”
“Let go of me.” Bai Qingqing instantly withdrew her hand.
Alva stared at her painfully. With her hand in his, he gently kissed the back of her hand, like a noble prince proposing marriage to his beloved princess.
“Will you give me a chance? I won’t ever mistreat you again.”

Bai Qingqing’s mouth twitched as she cast a disdainful glance at the back of her hand. She said, “You merely like me for my appearance. If one day I become ugly, will you still like me?”
Alva replied without a thought, “You would still be you. In my heart, you will remain the way you look right now, forever.”
Bai Qingqing sneered. “Then what if one day you find someone more beautiful than me?”
This time around, Alva gave the question serious thought before answering her solemnly, “If we’ve become mates, I naturally will stick with you forever. If not, I will choose the better-looking one.”
