Shui Xian had never felt this helpless in years. She was beyond his understanding and maybe that's why she managed to catch his attention so easily. He didn't feel attracted to her although she was a beautiful young woman. What he felt was a sudden urge to understand her. Because he certainly loved the confidence she exuded.
"If you're not expecting love, what exactly are you expecting from this marriage?"
Raelle had just come back after getting herself another coffee when she heard his question. She stared at him blankly before replying, "Is it weird if I say nothing?" Seeing his expression, she nodded, "Right? It does sound weird. However, that's my honest answer. I'm not expecting anything." Before he could open his mouth to say anything, she continued, "Don't be offended, it's just that I don't have any expectations in my life. When you expect nothing, it leaves you with endless possibilities in life."
