I laughed dismissively: “Not allow? Then may I ask, Young Master Xi, with what identity are you saying you won’t allow this? As my master, or as my fiancé?”
Xi Lin Yan’s hand on my shoulder instead punched the nearby pillar, a hurt expression in his eyes: “Damn woman, how long are you going to cause trouble? Isn’t I good enough to you?”
I couldn’t help but coldly laugh: “Your so-called ‘good’ to me is deliberately marrying another woman to provoke me?”
A trace of pain crossed Xi Lin Yan’s beautiful face: “Then what? How do you want me to act? This endless game of chase is exhausting for anyone. I’m starting to doubt whether you ever truly intended to marry me.”
I bit my lip in response: “Even if I was wrong before, you can’t punish me like this! If I didn’t want to marry you, why would I come back from a thousand years in the future? If I didn’t want to marry you, why would I care if you married someone else?”
I lightly curled the corner of my mouth, looking at her provocatively: “Then it depends on whether you have the ability to keep me here!”
Xi Lin Yan gritted her teeth: “You are forcing me!
“No!” I sneered and shook my head: “I’m just proving my determination to you! I said, I, Fei Xin Ran, would rather not have you than share a husband with another woman!”
Xi Lin Yan tightened his fists, finally helplessly saying: “There are no other women at all!”
“Huh?” I blinked in disbelief, suspecting that either my ears were malfunctioning or he was distorting the facts to keep me.
To clarify, I immediately asked: “What did you just say?”
He glared at me fiercely: “I said, there are absolutely no other women. Everything is just your imagination! From the thousands of waters, I only take one scoop to drink – this is my principle!”
I asked in disbelief: “But everyone is spreading rumors about the grand wedding of Young Master Xi Lin. What’s going on? If you weren’t busy accompanying your beloved wife, why did it take you so long to find me?”
He answered impatiently: “Xiliu Castle did hold a wedding, but the one getting married wasn’t me!”
What? What?
I asked eagerly: “If not you, then who?”
He rolled his eyes, reluctantly answering: “The maid Xiao Fu and the servant A Yan. The wedding arrangements were already set, just missing the groom and bride.”
“As for why I came to find you so late… I admit, I did it on purpose!”
