Chapter 1282 - The DNA Paternity Test (1/2)

He said he loved her.

Xia Ling pupils shrunk in shock. They had only just met. Did he even know her?

How could he love her?

And yet, somehow… she could feel his affection for her.

But she did not dare to believe.

Now he was saying that he wanted to marry her.

Was he… serious?

Xia Ling was no longer a naive and young girl. She came from nothing and didn’t even have parents. She had even given birth to Mu Mu at such a young age and had no merits for people to select her at all. She wasn’t delusional. This man was the Silver Mask King of such high status. How could he possibly have fallen in love? Why would he want to marry her?”

This couldn’t be real. The pounding in her heart was roaring from her chest.

“Lingling… Lingling.”

The lights were switched off and the living room was in darkness. Xuan Ying spun her around gently and pressed her against a dark corner of the room.

He took something out from his pocket, grabbed her hand, and slipped it onto her ring finger.

The cold touch startled Xia Ling, who drew her hands back quickly. “No, I don’t want your ring.”

He had taken a ring out.

The diamond on the ring glowed faintly in the dark.

He had actually placed the ring on her finger.

How could this be happening? It didn’t make any sense at all. Her thoughts were in a jumbled mess. How could she have prepared for something like this?

“Lingling, what’s wrong? You really don’t want to be with me?” Xuan Ying kissed her red lips.

Xia Ling pushed him away slightly. His masculine scent was completely enveloping her, making her legs go weak. She could feel his burning breath on her, making it hard for her to breathe. She couldn’t think straight anymore.

“I don’t know… this is too sudden. Do you really not care about my past? I gave birth to Mu Mu when I was 18. I’m no longer pure… no longer a virgin. I’ve already had other men before you… Based on your status, you can go for a better woman. Maybe you’re just infatuated with… my body. Once you get sick of it, you won’t want it anymore…”

As he listened, Xuan Ying steadied her head with his hands and kissed her red lips, her nose and finally her forehead. He frowned and said in a husky voice, “Lingling, I would be lying if I said that your past didn’t bother me at all. The woman I loved the most was deflowered when she was 18 by another man and gave birth to someone else’s daughter. Of course I’m jealous. Every time I see the two of you together so lovingly, I think about the man who was in your life, and I get crazy with jealousy.

“But more than that, I love you and I love Mu Mu. I want you to depend on me instead of this man, I’m not just lusting for your body. All I crave is time with you. I want to spend the rest of my life with you.”

He had ordered his men to look for the man from three years ago but to no avail.

He still couldn’t figure out the man who had taken her innocence, the man who was Mu Mu’s father as well.

If he ever found that bastard, he was going to chop the man to pieces.

He couldn’t even bear to touch Lingling. How could she have been ruined by someone else?

But it didn’t bother him that she had lost her first time, neither did it bother him that she had given birth to Mu Mu at 18 years old. He wanted to love her, even more, when he thought of all the hardships she had suffered in the past. And he loved Mu Mu as well.

Xia Ling’s mind was a complete mess and she couldn’t think anymore. He seemed to be sincere and loving.

“I need some time to think about it…”

“Alright, I’ll give you time to think about it. I will always wait for you.”

With that, a joyous smile burst out on his face. She had said that she was going to think about it. This meant that she was giving him a chance.

As he wrapped her in his strong embrace, he took in her soft fragrance. It only made him want more like he was drunk on it.

“Lingling, my Lingling…” He continued kissing her body.
