"Have you relaxed?" Han Li asked.
Liyue curtly nodded.
"So, I will get straight to the point since you seem to be questioning yourself," he said looking into her black eyes that looked like the night sky. "I want to take you in as mine and one thing I am sure of is, that is much better for you than being a wife to a random man you might find here in the city."
Liyue hesitated but then bit her lips and nodded.
Han Li looked at her. "Tell me what you think about this," he said.
She looked back at him for the first time but then shook her head inside. Nevertheless, she asked in curiosity: "Does my opinion really matter though? You and father came to a deal and I am now yours. Isn't that a decided matter?"
'I see,' he thought. Seeing why she looked gloomy.
Yue Li frowned in slight disbelief. Did Xiao Li really want to marry someone by making a deal with her father? That was not how she taught him to be.
