Pei Xingcheng's smile faltered when he heard her say, 'Once someone said the very same thing to me.'
He couldn't help the twinge of jealousy that crept into his heart. Who was this person that had made her smile so brightly? Was he someone from her past? The thought of someone else making her happy made him feel a pang of jealousy that he couldn't quite explain.
"Really?" he asked in response.
She nodded with a gentle smile.
He couldn't help but feel a twinge of possessiveness towards her. He tried to hide the hint of jealousy in his voice, but curiosity got the best of him as he asked, "Who was it?"
"Someone special," was all Miss Ghost said.
This made him suspicious, and he couldn't help but clench his jaw in frustration. He remembered that Miss Ghost had previously mentioned having no memory about her life. This made him skeptical.
