Ever since she could remember, Linlang's favorite thing was to curl up in the Cold Moon Pavilion and quietly wait for Ming Yuehan to return at night... Little did she know, she was just like her name: a homebody at heart!
That day, she smiled like a blooming flower and asked with hopeful anticipation, “In Uncle Yuehan's heart, have you ever felt even the slightest affection for Linlang?”
People aren't plants or trees. Who can be without feelings? Ming Yuehan parted his cool lips slightly. “I have!”
As Linlang turned away, she nodded firmly. “That's enough for me!”
They met again when the Liu and Ming families were arranging a marriage alliance. Ming Yuehan's voice was ice-cold. “There are countless young men from prominent families. Why does it have to be him?”
Linlang smiled gently. “Don't you know, Uncle Yuehan? The Liu and Ming families already have a marriage agreement...”
Ming Yuehan looked at the prospective groom in the distance and gritted his teeth. “Is he the only unmarried man in the Ming family?”
Linlang extended a slender finger and traced the first button of Ming Yuehan's suit, smiling casually. “Then, Uncle Yuehan, would you marry me?” She knew the answer would be no, yet she insisted on asking for an answer, even if it was the wrong one!
