Liu Zheng became immediately alert when he felt something was off about his own state of mind, the last shred of reason within him helping him snap back to reality.
If he really did such a thing, wouldn't he be letting his brother down too much?
With that thought, Liu Zheng quickly suppressed the restlessness in his heart, put his hand on Wu Min's shoulder, and pushed her away from his embrace.
"Sister-in-law, I need to head back into the mountains to gather some more herbs while it's still early."
As he spoke, he picked up the basket that was lying beside him.
After being pushed away by Liu Zheng, Wu Min's face turned pale in an instant.
To offer herself so willingly only to be rejected by Liu Zheng felt to her like being stripped naked and thrown onto the street for public exhibition.
The feeling was almost suffocating, leaving her with a sense of not wanting to live another day.
When Liu Zheng glanced over and saw Wu Min's face change in color, his heart sank.
