Xu Wang paused for a long time before finally saying in a calm tone, "You ancient Earthlings are really troublesome."

He didn't understand. She clearly felt aroused towards him, which meant she liked him. He could simply accept this arousal signal. Why did she insist that he could only mark her if he liked her?

Feng Guang felt her body slowly returning to normal, and she guessed that he had withdrawn the pheromones that had aroused her desire. Just as she felt relieved, he unexpectedly kissed her lips again.

Perhaps this wasn't even a kiss, because between their lips and teeth, only he was releasing his desires, devoid of any tenderness. She couldn't resist at all, and in the end, she felt a sharp pain.

Xu Wang stepped back slightly, licked away the bloodstains from the corner of her lips, and said softly, "Miss Xia, while I still have patience, you should try your best to make me like you. Otherwise, I will have no choice but to mark you with the most primitive method. Just think, to let your body be stained with my scent, it seems to be something I can't wait to do."

"you……"

"Am I a bastard?" he interrupted her with a laugh. "Or a pervert? It doesn't matter. The scent of you is truly captivating, so captivating that... I just want to have you under me day and night."

Feng Guang's face flushed red and then turned pale, her heart pounding.

He stroked her long hair that fell over her shoulders, as if soothing a disobedient kitten. "I'll only give you three days. If you haven't made me like you by then, I'll have to mark you."

No, no, no... If he likes her, he will mark her with a knot; if he doesn't like her, he will still mark her with a knot. So what difference does it make whether he likes her or not?

This was Feng Guang's thought, which suddenly became extremely chaotic in her mind. Her face was blank. "Anyway, you're going to mark me anyway."

"Hmm...that's right."

Her expression... was quite a sight. She pursed her lips, which he had bitten, and suddenly, a wicked thought crossed her mind. She grabbed his hand and said, "Come on, let's go to my room!"

"……do what?"

"Didn't you want to be marked?" she glared at him fiercely. "Since we're going to the execution ground anyway, rather than letting me live in fear for three days, I might as well just take you there now!"

"But you said it had to be mutual love..."

"To hell with mutual affection! My sentimentality is completely useless in front of someone like you. Are you going to my room or not? If not, then forget it!"

Xu Wang was taken aback by her domineering attitude of completely abandoning herself. He raised an eyebrow, chuckled, and then picked her up in his arms. "Miss Xia, you are quite an unexpected surprise."

A beautiful accident.

Feng Guang nervously clutched the hem of his uniform, her face bearing an expression of heroic sacrifice, so fearless that it seemed she was going to sacrifice herself for all of humanity.

Just as Xu Wang was carrying her step by step down the corridor and was about to reach her room, an alarm suddenly sounded in the castle.

Xu Wang paused, his handsome brows furrowing slightly, and his usually gentle voice crackled with irritation, "Damn it!"

Before Feng Guang could finish her questioning, her surroundings suddenly changed. She was still being held in his arms, but now they were in front of a group of soldiers.

Surrounded by soldiers was a man in white. He was tall and thin, with a frail physique, yet he did not appear weak. His picturesque face possessed a divine quality of compassion for all humanity. The moment one saw him, one felt an uncontrollable sense of holiness and sanctity... making one want to worship him.
