In the Jing Wang Manor, Gu Qingning felt a surge of questions bubbling within her as she glanced at Pei Zhiqing. She wanted to ask but hesitated, her words caught in her throat, stammering and unsure.
Pei Zhiqing caught sight of Gu Qingning out of the corner of his eye. He propped his chin on his hand, deep in thought, then shook his head and bit his lip. The woman before him, lost in her own thoughts, appeared to him as a vibrant landscape, one he could gaze upon endlessly.
What was she thinking about? Unable to endure the curiosity any longer, Pei Zhiqing finally spoke in a low, hoarse voice.
Gu Qingning turned to him and asked, "Who is the 'Qing' you mentioned, my lord?" She waved her hand dismissively and added, "Don't misunderstand! I'm just curious. If you have someone you admire, you can marry her; I wouldn't mind."
They had previously agreed that their relationship was merely a transaction. Now that she knew he had someone he liked, it would be wrong for her to occupy another's place and prevent two lovers from being together. That would be a grave sin.
Pei Zhiqing paused for a moment before replying, "Does the princess not know who it is that I admire?" His tone was tinged with jealousy and a hint of bitterness.
With such an obvious display of emotion, Pei Zhiqing found it hard to believe that Gu Qingning couldn't see through it. A sudden flame ignited in his chest, burning fiercely.
"How could I possibly know who you like?" Gu Qingning retorted, her mind momentarily blank.
Lost in thought and unable to find another answer, she felt confused. Among the people she knew, the only one with 'Qing' in their name was herself; there was no second.
Pei Zhiqing stepped closer to Gu Qingning, cupping her face gently in his hands before placing a soft kiss on her cheek.
"Listen well, Gu Qingning," he said earnestly. "The only woman I truly admire is you—Gu Qingning. It has always been only you."
In that instant, it felt as though time itself had come to a standstill; even their breaths seemed to echo clearly in the silence. The sudden confession left Gu Qingning stunned and at a loss for words.
like? only? Just you? When did Pei Zhijing start falling in love with her? She never knew. Whether it's the past, the future, or the present, Pei Zhijing here. Pei Zhijing took her hand and put it on her beating heart, and continued to say, there will always be only you, and I can only pretend to be you. Others have no place at all. boom! Dying! Gu Qingning, whose heart was beating fast, raised her eyes to look at Pei Zhijing. A trace of warmth flowed from the strong chest to Gu Qingning's palm, which was very rhythmic and warm. Gu Qingning was so aroused by him that her whole body became hot and her cheeks turned red. "My lord, can you let go of your hand first? I have something to say." Pei Zhijing's magnetic and mellow voice sounded: I'm listening. What should she say at such a close distance? Gu Qingning slowly raised her eyes shyly: When did you fall in love with me? After pondering for a moment, Pei Zhijing's dark eyes seemed to be stuck in memory: Is it enough to marry with the fingertips? Pei Zhijing thought about it for a while, and if he really wanted to say it, marriage with the fingertips was the best answer. Pei Zhijing. Gu Qingning stood up and softly called his name. Believe it or not, when I learned that I was going to have a baby kiss with you, I was a little bit looking forward to it. But I want to tell you, I am a mysophobic person about feelings and I don’t like others to get involved in what belongs to me. If you really like me, you will love me for the rest of your life. Are you okay?
