Chapter 201 - Do You Care if I Get Engaged to Her?
Zuo Weiyi was stunned facing his sudden words.
Did he mean the last sentence that she said in the pantry?
The reason why she confessed to him at that time was that she thought they were both going to die there. But now that she was safe and alive, she could not say it again.
Zuo Weiyi lowered her head and dodged Shi Yuting’s eyes. “No, no…”
Shi Yuting narrowed his eyes. “No?”
“Yes.” She nodded. She could not say those words again.
Especially when she knew that he and Tengtang Xi were about to get engaged.
Suddenly, there was a flush of blush on her fair face.
He grinned and did not expose her. He then switched the conversation to another topic. “What did you ask me just now?”
Zuo Weiyi only thought of it after listening to him.
She wanted to ask about his engagement with Tengtang Xi.
She pursed her pink lips and raised her eyes. “You and Tengtang Xi… are you getting engaged?”
She asked indifferently, but there was a trace of pain in her eyes. She looked carefully at the man’s jade-like face.
Shi Yuting gently bit his lower lip and remained calm facing her question.
After a while, he lowered his head and looked at her with his deep and inquisitive eyes. He wanted to see through her heart.
“Can you answer me first before I answer your question?”
Zuo Weiyi was dumbfounded.
“Answer what?”
“Do you care if I get engaged to her?”
She was startled listening to his words.
Of course, she cared about it.
She then lowered her head and looked a little sad.
“If you don’t want to say, even…”
“Answer me.”
It was a command—unquestionable and overbearing although his tone was light and soft!
She glanced at him. This man was really…
Too domineering!
“Mhmm!” She nodded reluctantly.
But Shi Yuting was not satisfied yet.
“Mhmm?”
“Yes, I care!” She had no choice but to say it again.
Shi Yuting finally smiled with satisfaction this time.
Zuo Weiyi looked at him. “Now, it’s your turn to answer me!”
“Yes, next month.”
He answered too suddenly leaving her somewhat unprepared.
Next month? Was he really going to get engaged with Tengtang Xi next month?
Zuo Weiyi felt that her chest was being stabbed by something while thinking of this.
“But, I won’t marry her.”
Shi Yuting suddenly spoke as he could see the pain in her eyes.
The pain in her eyes made his heart ache.
Zuo Weiyi was puzzled.
Not marrying Tengtang Xi?
However, they were getting engaged. How was it possible to not marry her?
She was wrong.
It was none of her business whether he married Tengtang Xi or not.
Because even if he did not marry Tengtang Xi, he would marry another woman with equal status and rank, right?
She—Zuo Weiyi had no prominent identity and did not have a strong family background. She would never be the woman who would spend the rest of her life with him.
The thought of him spending the rest of his life with another woman made her heart ached as if her heart was pierced by the icicles.
“Zuo Weiyi.”
Just as she was immersed in her thoughts, his sexy and low voice suddenly spoke above her head.
She slightly raised her head and looked at him blankly.
Looking at her clear and bright eyes, Shi Yuting had never been this serious.
“Just stay by my side. Don’t leave me.”
Zuo Weiyi was stunned while looking at his serious face.
What did he mean?
‘Stay by his side and don’t leave him? But isn’t he going to be engaged to Tengtang Xi?’
