Feng Ling felt that this hypothetical situation was not valid. The man was pressing close to her and she really wanted to increase the distance between them.
However, she knew very well that if she backed down right now, she would be admitting defeat to his words, as though she truly minded the things that had happened between them.
"There's no what-ifs. I'm very grateful for Miss Wen's help back then. It's natural for me to open my heart to her right now," Feng Ling turned her face away to avoid being kissed by him.
However, she felt that there was almost no point to her actions. Although their skin had yet to touch, the sensation of the man's breath and his husky voice left her feeling as though she had already been thoroughly kissed by him.
"Aside from the time I was locked in the Li family's ancestral hall, when have I failed to show up? Why won't you try opening your heart to me?"
Feng Ling closed her eyes: "I've opened up to you once."
