Chapter 327 - Got It Tattooed (2/2)

Han Jian Yu tilted his head to the side. That white fox belonged to her?

''It originally did not belong to me. I found it from somewhere...'' She said.

''I met it...'' He recited the incident where he found that white fox but there was still some doubt in his heart. Everything she was saying seemed to be logical but there was something amiss in it and he could not quite put a finger on what it was.

''You did?” Mia acted surprised. Of course, she saw the doubt in his eyes. She slowly lifted the silver bangs from her forehead, ''See this...''

Han Jian Yu turned to look at her face. There was a crimson lotus mark on her forehead. His brows tugged together slightly. This familiar mark... He had seen it on the little fox before. Some thoughts flashed in his mind but they were so fast that he could not get a grip on them.

''Isn't it cool? My pet had this birthmark on her head so I got it tattooed,'' Mia said as she smiled.

The last bit of doubt in his heart vanished. She knew the fox's gender and she even knew about this birthmark and her words were quite believable without a single flaw in them. ''It's good,'' It looked good on her face.

Mia was a bit stunned as she never expected him to compliment it. Back in those times, birthmarks were taken as scars, and even if one had a minuscule scar on their face, they were mocked and ridiculed as it was taken to be inauspicious.

Even as a Princess, her birthmark was talked about but once her father punished a woman for the offense, and after that nobody talked about it.

''Aren't you worried about your fox?” His curious voice snapped her out of her trance.

''Didn't you say she was with you?” Mia acted like she was unaware of it.

''She ran away,'' There was a hint of worry in his eyes.

And she noticed it. The corner of her lips tugged up, ''I am not worried for her because she is more intelligent than humans. Maybe she has found her real home or she has gotten herself a male fox to sleep with. What are you worried about?''

Found a male fox to sleep with? The corner of his lips twitched. It was true that she was extremely smart but...

Han Jian Yu picked up the glass of wine before taking a few sips.

Mia inwardly sighed in relief. It was not that she did not trust him but for some reason, she did not want to tell him her truth. She was uncomfortable just at the thought of it.

What would he see her as?

''Well, I should get going. It's time for bed,'' She stood up from the chair and stretched her hands.

He noticed how her dress went a few inches higher, revealing her milky thighs. His gaze darkened slightly, ''Isn't it too early to sleep?” His words came out in a whisper.
