Lu Jing thought she was afraid of Lu Huai, so his voice and eyes softened even more: "I am Jing."
Nan Zhi wasn't as happy as she had expected; she looked at him warily.
Lu Jing finally realized that something was wrong.
He pulled her close and hugged her, saying, "Who bullied you? Tell me, and I'll go and get revenge for you."
Nanzhi leaned on his shoulder and asked softly, sobbing, "A-Jing, do you like me?"

But when he heard Nanzhi's second question, he was stunned.
"Then will you marry me?"

For a moment, he couldn't tell whether it belonged to Lu Huai or to him.
A hint of coldness appeared in his eyes: "Did someone spout nonsense in front of you?"

But their identities destined them to never have a happy ending...
