”This Lordship does not know.”
XuanRong's eyes flickered when she heard his answer. She suddenly felt a tiny pain inside her heart.
”Then, do you fancy me?”
”I do.”
”…..”
XuanRong was astonished by how fast the man answered her question. She could not help but blush. It was the first time that someone admitted that he liked her. She would be lying if she would say that she was not happy.
”Then, do you want to marry me?”
”I do.”
”…..”
Once again, XuanRong was surprised by Xu Fei Yi's answer. She did not expect that he was willing to marry her even though they only met a couple of times. Basically, they were both strangers with each other. But, XuanRong would not erase the possibility that he said those things in order to get what he wanted. She was already tired with these uncertain feelings they had with each other. All that she wanted was to end her confusion.
”If you marry me, you will no longer have the right to bring another woman and cross the threshold.”
”Mmm.”
”You will entirely devote yourself to me.”
”Mmm.”
The two talked calmly as if the events that occurred a while ago never happened. XuanRong continued asking questions. She had already forgotten that they were still half-lying on the bed. Their ambiguous position was very suggestive. Although her hands were already released above her, she was still lying on the bed while Xu Fei Yi was half-leaning, half lying onto her. If one would see them, one would immediately think that something sexual was currently going on, but XuanRong was oblivious to it as if she had already forgotten about that.
”Then… are you willing to let me see your face and reveal your identity?”
XuanRong's eyes shone after asking the last question. She was only trying to test her luck. She wanted to gamble. She wanted to give herself another chance and try to love another person again.
Although XuanRong knew that her benefactor had a reason why he was wearing a mask and did not want to show his face, but she was a stubborn person. The more other people tried to hide something from her, the more she wanted to know about it. If he really loved her and was planning to marry her, he would never hide his identity.
XuanRong raised her right hand and reached for Xu Fei Yi's golden mask. When her fingers touched the cold metal, she could not help but shiver. She subconsciously traced the hole that was intended for Xu Fei Yi's eyes.
Xu Fei Yi did not reply but his eyes stared intensely at XuanRong. Although he did not allow her, he also did not reject her. XuanRong's fingers slowly moved towards at the back of Xu Fei Yi's head where the string of the mask was tied securely.
”I… I want to know who you are.”
