Bewitching the Heart and the Soul, Part II

"Because in my heart, you're like the pretty yet mysterious princess living in a castle. Not many people would have the chance to run away with a princess, just like a fairy tale.

Mu Ningxue fell silent.

A moment later, she spoke, "You're strange, just like them."

"I think so, too." Mo Fan shrugged. The smile on his face remained the same. It was hard to tell if he were being serious, or fooling around.

"Then there's no need to say this now." Mu Ningxue was more concerned about the current situation.

"But I'll always keep the promise I made."

"Is there any meaning to it? You know that it's naive, just like a fairy tale. The Mu Family is no longer the same. Don't make it harder for yourself. Besides, I'm no longer interested in you," Mu Ningxue said frankly.
