Chapter 310: I Either Fall in Love with You or No One

“I…” Feng Tianlan opened her mouth. In the end, she said nothing. With Si Mobai staring so intently at her, the words simply refused to leave her lips.

Si Mobai raised his eyebrows eagerly. Even though he knew that she was most likely going to repeat that she did not return his feelings, he still clung to a glimmer of hope. What if, this time, she gave in?

Si Mobai’s doe eyes made Feng Tianlan avert her gaze slightly. She swallowed what she was about to say and bade him goodbye, “Take care.”

Si Mobai relaxed then frowned. He was relieved because she did not refuse him this time, and he frowned because she was still keeping her heart locked away from him. He should take it easy. At least not being rejected for the millionth time was a tremendous improvement.

Feng Tianlan watched Si Mobai leave, and her lustrous eyes dimmed. She had wanted to tell him that she would either fall in love with him or no one. However, she feared that if she gave him hope, disappointment awaited them both.

She did not know how much time she had left. A promise that she might not be able to keep was better left unspoken. Instead, she made a promise to herself. She would either fall for Si Mobai or no one.

The massive team led by Qi Shujie was eye-catching, to say the least. With their entire fleet of demonic beast mounts, they’d earned a lot of double-takes in and around South Peace City. People looked at them with envy. Here was the Top-Level Sect of Guiyuan Continent, the Flying Frost Pavilion! They could never compare in terms of cultivation, not even external disciples.

A soft but pained whine could be heard coming from an extravagant carriage pulled by two demonic beasts.

Qi Shujie has been guarding Tu Xiupei all this while. He sat up when he heard the sounds, and began to ask nervously, “Pei’er, how are you feeling? Are you hurting anywhere? Are you thirsty? Hungry?”
