Bai Zhishi held Quin Lei's hands tightly before he pursed his lips and put it down. He also stepped away from Quin Lei before taking a deep breath.
"Quin Lei, the truth is… I cannot be with you. Last time, in the Zou Kingdom, you talked about the war between the Zen and the Zou, so I have to go back and help my hometown… Also, I have to help Third Young Princess Huatian. Her marriage with Sir Jin Yuan, I must help her get her happiness," Bai Zhishi said and slowly let his hands go but Quin Lei held his hands instead.
"I don't care about the others right now, Bai Zhishi, tell me, you have to tell me, do you really not love me?" Quin Lei asked him. Bai Zhishi looked away from him, he knew that if he look at this man before him, he would only waver and fail his missions.
"Bai Zhishi, face me properly and tell me what you really desire," Quin Lei said as he pulled Bai Zhishi closer towards him.
