Leng Tong: ...
A touch of bewilderment emerged in her icy eyes fixed on her doll-like face.
As she stared at Ning Xie, he felt a pang of unease stirring deep within his heart, before hearing her ask, "What... what is it that you like about me?"
Upon hearing this, Ning Xie was taken aback for a moment.
What did he like about her?
After a brief pause, he replied, "I don't know exactly, I just like you... all of you."
Leng Tong was left speechless.
Ning Xie had pursued her relentlessly, and she had never asked him this question.
And now...
She bowed her head and let out a bitter smile.
To everyone's eyes, as a bachelor from a rich family background, Ning Xie courting her, an ordinary girl with no established status, was a blessing. Her constant rejections, pretending to not understand were all interpreted as ingratitude.
Just last night, she had a drugged apple juice sent by her second brother.
Did her second brother too think that she was ungrateful?
