Chapter 23 Are You Sick?

Xiao Mengyi's words left Qin Chuan stunned.

"What did you say?"

Qin Chuan wondered if he had heard wrong.

With a delicate blush on her beautiful face, Xiao Mengyi bit her lip and said again, "I want you to marry me!"

It was not until this moment that Qin Chuan confirmed he had not misheard, and his expression instantly froze.

He did have a fondness for this woman who had saved his life, but it was just that—a fondness.

He had always wanted to find Xiao Mengyi, to repay her for saving his life, with no other intentions.

Gathering her courage, Xiao Mengyi looked directly into Qin Chuan's eyes, her own eyes vividly red, waiting for his answer.

After a brief silence, Qin Chuan gave a bitter smile, "I don't believe that just because of what happened that night, you fell in love with me."

Xiao Mengyi's face regained its coldness as she said, "You just need to answer me⁠—are you willing or not?"

Qin Chuan shook his head without hesitation, "Sorry, I refuse!"

"What?"
