Chapter 197 - Prince charming (2/2)

Ying Sheng blinked away the tears and found herself being pulled into a bone crushing hug from Liam. Her nose felt sour.

”It's okay. I understand. I'm sorry too. I wasn't there when you needed me the most. I broke my promise. I'm really sorry.”

Liam said as he caressed her scalp.

”Even the mighteset and strongest soldiers get tired too. So don't say you're weak. We would get through this together. Okay? Remember I said I will never let go of your hands.”

Ying Sheng felt warmth boiled in her veins and she nodded.

”Alright.”

Liam smiled, ”Let's not talk about this. Hmm….. tell me apart from Ice cream what else do you like?”

Liam said changing the depressed topic.

Ying Sheng eyes sparkled with an unknown light.

”Disney princess cartoons!” She blurred out.

Liam pulled away and stared at her silently for a few seconds before he let out a pearl of laughter.

”What?” He asked amused.

”What-what?” Ying Sheng's lips curved into a smile.

”I like happy endings. How the princesses or ordinary woman like Cinderella always get their prince at the end of the day and they live happily ever after!”

Ying Sheng pouted as she explained.

Liam smiled and flickered her nose.

”So you want to find a prince charming?” Liam teased her.

Ying Sheng avoided Liam's gaze as a blush taint her cheeks.

”Who doesn't?” She flashed Liam a smile and leaned back on the bed while Liam sat on the edge of the bed.

”Hmmm...so I want to be your prince charming would you accept me, Princess?” Liam grinned widely at her as he asked.

Ying Sheng stared at Liam and busted into laughter.

”What?” Liam asked as he stared at her laughing. His lips couldn't help but also stretched into a smile.

Liam leaned forward and touched the edges of her cut hair.

”Short hair really suits you.” Ying Sheng looked up and they eyes met. Wait their eyes seems to be meeting alot today. Ying Sheng thought amsued.

Liam's eyes were filled with so much unknown emotions making Ying Sheng's heart skip a beat.

Guilt

Sadness

Pain

Relief

Affection and love?

These were the emotions brewing in Liam's eyes.

Ying Sheng frowned. Why were he looking at her the same way her cousin looks at his wife?

Maybe...did he like her?

Ying Sheng laughed at her own thoughts and shook her head aggressively.

”What are you thinking?” Liam asked her when he saw her shaking her head.

”Nothing. I'm hungry.”
