Was this... a proposal?
Xu Rouguang balled his fist and started crying louder. He then opened his hand again and picked up the ring with his shaky hand. Lord Dao picked up the ring on his behalf and slid it up his left ring finger before kissing him again. Unlike the last time, their kiss wasn't filled with lust. It was the first time they managed to speak to each other's souls.
From this very day, Xu Rouguang knew that he would never let Lord Dao go anymore. Whether he was a spy or a demon even, he would hold onto him as long as he had a breath to give. They pulled back, and Xu Rouguang wiped his tears off of his face. He then chuckled as his hands held onto the lapel on his robes.
"Lord Dao... I'm so sorry for lying to you... but I love you so much... please forgive me..." Xu Rouguang slowly started disrobing himself while Lord Dao only watched. He kneeled before the demon and looked down as if avoiding the look on Lord Dao's eyes.
