"CEO Ji, do you like me, then?"
Pei Ge stared unblinkingly at him, as though afraid of missing a single change in his expression.
Alas, even then, his expression still did not give her a clue of his thoughts or emotions.
"I like you?" He looked coolly at her. The statement was clearly phrased as a question, yet no sense of doubt could be gleaned from his voice.
Of course, one was also unable to catch the emotions incorporated in his words when he spoke them or what he was thinking at all.
"… Mhm," she hummed to confirm.
"Why would you think that?" asked Ji Ziming in a very neutral voice while staring at her.
"If you don't like me, then why do you want to marry me? We… are not compatible at all. Isn't that right?" she spoke her true thoughts and then pursed her lips.
If it's not because of him liking me, then what reason does he have for wanting to marry me?
