For some reason, when he made that gesture, it gave her a sensuous feeling.
Her face flushed, her heart began to panic, and the back of her hand that he had licked felt scorchingly hot.
Lin Xinlan felt like she had been pricked by a needle and suddenly pulled her hand back, gripping it tightly with a slight frown between her brows.
"I just said that when you need me, I'll continue to be the Young Madam of the Rong Family. However, I will never acknowledge that we are husband and wife!"
Rong Shaoze lifted his eyes, his enchanting thin lips curving into a slight smile.
"What do you mean you won't acknowledge that we are husband and wife?"
"Rong Shaoze, you should be very clear that we are only married by contract, and our marriage doesn't count. I'm just temporarily acting as a stand-in, and I could never be your wife for life. So, it's better if we clarify everything from the start."
