“I admit, I’m very interested in her.” Qi Mu finished speaking and felt a glare at him, so he added, “But that was before I really met you.”
"What about her interests you? Is it because she has a better personality than me, or is she more talented than me?" Feng Guangda seemed determined to make things difficult for you until you explained yourself properly.
It seems Qi Mu has no choice but to explain clearly. "One day, she suddenly approached me and said she was willing to lend me a hand."
"What do you mean she approached you? It was clearly you who saw Qi Duan getting close to her and deliberately went to provoke her first."
"Alright, alright, I provoked her first." He nodded helplessly. During the time when Feng Guang's soul was out of his body, he stayed by his body every day, so he knew everything that happened. He couldn't lie to her, so he had to accept his fate and confess. "At that time, it was the most intense time when Qi Duan and I were fighting for the position of heir. When I saw that he was suddenly indulging in personal feelings, I thought that maybe I could start with the woman he loved."
Although this method is despicable, in the battlefield, all underhanded means are justifiable.
"So you were just attracted to her like that?" she questioned, thinking angrily, especially since she was being used with her body.
"Let me finish." He kissed her forehead to prevent her from getting jealous. "I never thought that she would come to me after just one meeting and actually carry out my plan. She said she was curious about human emotions, so I became curious about her."
She scoffed, "And then?"
Although she knew how things unfolded, she didn't know his thought process.
"After you returned to your body, I hadn't even thought of the substitution plot. I invited you out to enjoy the scenery, but I found you incredibly boring again." Few things could pique Qi Mu's interest. Once he found something interesting, he would get his hands on it. As for An Lu, he couldn't say he liked her, but he found her amusing. A woman who had taken the initiative to step into the situation and personally influenced its changes, yet she acted as an observer. It was truly an amusing irony.
Feng Guang glared at him, though he might not have been able to sense her glare. "I'm so sorry, I've made the young master feel bored."
"Don't get angry right away, let me finish speaking, okay?"
She reluctantly gave a soft "hmm".
"After hearing you remind the maid, I suddenly thought that maybe I was wrong. I've never been wrong about a person before, but you made me uncertain." So Qi Mu, who should have treated Feng Guang as a casual passerby, couldn't help but say that he would invite her again next time when he saw her off. "As it turns out, I was indeed wrong."
Feng Guang was more than just interesting; without realizing it, she had occupied too much of his mind. He began to find Qi Duan's presence increasingly obstructive because he was her fiancé. Even in the past, even when Feng Guang's body was possessed by a fox demon, Qi Mu had heard from his spies that the two of them had held hands and embraced... Before, he only thought Qi Duan was ridiculous for loving a woman so deeply, but now, Qi Mu wanted to cut off Qi Duan's hand.
Feng Guang asked him cautiously, "So... do you think I'm interesting right now?"
“No.” He shook his head slightly, a glint of light flashing in his dark eyes. He said, “There has never been anyone or anything that has ever amused me and made me want to chain myself up tightly. Feng Guang, you are the first and the last.”
Is this... a confession?
