"Cousin, do I really have no chance at all?" He stopped in his tracks and asked Feng Xuxu, who stood before him.
"Cousin, even without Dugu Chen, it would be impossible for us." They were closely related, and even thinking about it made it unacceptable to her.
"Why?" He could hardly believe what he was hearing.
"Cousin, I only see you as I would my own brother. You and Feng Xi occupy the same place in my heart. Tell me, how could I fall in love with my brother?" She raised her eyes to look at Jueqing, staring unblinkingly at him.
"But... but I'm not your real brother, and there's still our engagement!" He blurted out the fact of their engagement without thinking.
"But in my heart, you are a brother." An engagement? Feng Xuxu resolved to have a serious talk with her grandfather another day.
"What if I want to honor our engagement?" Clenching his fist, he looked at Feng Xuxu with the last shred of hope.
