Ming Xiaoxiao's eyes were slightly moist, but she stubbornly refused to let the tears fall.
She lowered her head, revealing her fair and delicate nape. "It's nothing, I'm sorry you had to see this, Young Master Han."
He paused slightly, hesitated, and finally lowered his head, seemingly embarrassed and wanting to escape as soon as possible.
"Wait!" Luo Zhihan spoke up. The young man stood in the night, yet his complexion was as beautiful as spring flowers, and his smile seemed to warm up a bit.
Ming Xiaoxiao's heart started pounding uncontrollably. A few days ago, she went to see Ming Chengjun, who took her to meet the Luo family. They were clearly very pleased with her, and even mentioned marriage. Ming Chengjun immediately expressed his willingness to adopt her as his daughter.
If the Ming family were to form a marriage alliance with the Luo family, and Ming Chengjun had no daughter, then the marriage would inevitably fall to her.
The implication of those people's words was that the only suitable candidate for marriage alliance from the Luo family was Luo Zhihan.
She suspected that Luo Zhihan must have already heard some rumors and knew it was her, after all, Ming Chengjun had specially arranged for her to perform for a VIP at Wushan Square before, and that VIP was Luo Zhihan.
"Is something the matter?" Ming Xiaoxiao turned her head, her expression a mixture of vulnerability and strength.
“Your clothes are dirty.” Luo Zhihan paused, then looked at Ming Xiaoxiao’s hands. “Yes, your wrists are scraped, and your hair is covered in mud.”
Ming Xiaoxiao: "Thank you for your concern, but I don't need it..."
Young masters from wealthy families like her usually dislike being disobeyed, and the more she does this, the more she stands out from the crowd.
To everyone's surprise, Luo Zhihan looked puzzled after hearing her words: "Did I care about you? Sorry, I was... mocking you."
"With that grotesque appearance, you still expect me to look up to you? If you're out of your mind, go back and get it fixed. With this face, I really don't want to bother you."
Ming Xiaoxiao's expression froze completely. What was wrong with her? She looked so delicate and pitiful, yet exceptionally strong and stubborn. Any man looking at her should feel aroused and want to protect her!
Why does Luo Zhihan look so disgusted?
She could hardly believe it. She never expected that Luo Zhihan would have no sympathy at all. Wasn't he supposed to be the most easy-going and gentlemanly person in the Luo family?
Ming Xiaoxiao was somewhat unwilling: "You, you are attacking others based on their appearance, which is very impolite."
She straightened her back and argued her case, but she was a little unsure of herself. Had she really fallen too badly?
Luo Zhihan: "Then you've got it wrong. I'm not attacking your appearance, but your actions."
"You deliberately provoked a fight and then deliberately fell down. What are your true intentions?"
Ming Xiaoxiao's face flushed red, and she was both embarrassed and angry. "I didn't!"
“But you almost fell into my arms just now, causing me trouble.” Luo Zhihan raised her eyes slightly, her gaze icy cold. “Please apologize.”
Ming Xiaoxiao: "..."
She was absolutely furious. Who was the one who was really in trouble? If Luo Zhihan hadn't dodged, would she have fallen so badly?
She took a deep, deep breath, her eyes welling up with tears, making her look even more pitiful.
"Young Master Han, why are you targeting me like this? I know you're unhappy with me for not meeting you directly at Wushan Square last time, but..."
She hesitated, then glanced at Luo Zhihan with her watery eyes, saying, "That's because I didn't know you were engaged to me."
She deliberately tested the waters with the marriage contract, and there seemed to be an ambiguous atmosphere between them as they spoke.
