But Ning Feng's reaction surprised Ariana; he showed no excitement, only calmness.
"I don't think it's very good."
The voice was perfectly calm, without any ripples.
"Huh? I don't understand why you would refuse. This is clearly beneficial to you in every way."
Tilting its head, the black cat lowered its head and met Ning Feng's eyes.
Meeting her gaze silently, Ning Feng asked softly:
"You give me a task, so I'm supposed to go against my own will and try to seduce someone?"
"Am I a fish that bites at the sight of bait? Or am I a puppet that you can manipulate and control at will?"
Ning Feng showed no arrogance or sarcasm; he seemed genuinely seeking her opinion as he spoke:
"Ariana, what am I in your eyes?"
"Like you call a contractor? Or just a toy for your amusement?"
"You're being rather arrogant."
Ning Feng had experienced this kind of arrogance in the literature.
The gods have been just as arrogant towards ignorant believers.
Hehehe~
Smiling nonchalantly, Ariana seemed to find Ning Feng's disdain amusing, wagging her tail as if she had seen something interesting.
"Is she not pretty? Or do you not like older women? Or is there some unspeakable reason you're having trouble telling me?"
Ariana did not answer, but also did not bring up the matter of giving him the task again.
She wanted to avoid the topic, but this time Ning Feng didn't go along with her and try to gloss over it with jokes. He continued:
"No, I admit that I have a good impression of Dr. Lin, but that's all just superficial."
Do I understand her? Do I know her personality? Do I like her inner qualities or her appearance?
The so-called love at first sight is not about love, but about appearance.
“I told you, I don’t like a life where I’m being controlled. You’re making me feel like a puppet being manipulated by you.”
Ning Feng gently removed the black cat from her head, placed her on the bed, and offered her a paw, whispering:
"If our relationship is really as close as you say, let's respect each other."
Without further laughter, the black cat gently placed its paw in his palm and suddenly scratched it:
"You really don't regret it?"
Holding the tiny cat's paw, Ning Feng smiled, a genuine and open smile:
"It would be a lie to say I don't regret it, but... I don't like it."
Frankly, Ning Feng never concealed his true desires.
"But I don't like that feeling of being arranged for; it makes me feel like a lot of things have gone wrong."
Whether you pursue a character because you like them or just for the mission rewards, the feelings are completely different.
Ning Feng was weak, but he didn't want to become someone else's puppet.
He said:
"Even if one day I really do kiss her, it won't be to complete your task."
"It's only because I really like her."
