A conceited mer (2)

*****************

"It's because of me, isn't it? You must have thought that I deserved better than being your hidden lover. So you decided to become an official and marry me," Fu Qi Hong didn't hear a thing that Mo Qiang wanted to say. He held her hands in his and said to her with a touched expression, "But there is no need for you to be in such a hurry, I told you that I was going to wait didn't I? Don't worry, I am not going to run away." 

Mo Qiang: … No, on the contrary, I want you to run away. 

 Mo Qiang parted her lips to say something but Fu Qi Hong stopped her. He raised his finger and pressed it against her lips before saying to Mo Qiang, "There is no need for you to say anything. I understand everything." 

Inwardly Mo Qiang screamed that Fu Qi Hong did not understand anything but she had no way to put her thoughts into words as the mer did not let her say a single thing.
