"When I say something, I mean it!" Helian Chengyan emphatically added.
"Chengyan, don't act on impulse!" Chi Xingye seemed desperate.
"Impulse? Do you think I'm being impulsive?" Helian Chengyan's hand, which was on her chin, tightened, "So what if I have no feelings for her? I've known her since childhood, inside out! I probably know her better than I know you!"
Indeed, Helian Chengyan knew Gu Naimei very well, both her strengths and weaknesses.
And her?
To him, Chi Xingye was like an enigma. The more he tried to understand her, the more he realized that he actually knew very little about her. He knew almost nothing other than the fact that she existed!
In a chilling tone, Helian Chengyan continued, "Leaving aside the advantages and disadvantages of a political marriage, Gu Naimei has longed to be my queen since childhood. At least for her consistent commitment, I should give her the opportunity to be my queen!"
His words were steadfast and showed no sign of impulsiveness.
