'Should I say yes?'

He was curious to know what made him so excited that night that he pulled Han Xin closer and kissed him like a hungry beast. 'Should I say yes? Won't that old man kill me,' he thought. Thinking he could just blame Han Xin later he called out to the Divine Emperor to check if he was there, but there was no answer. It seemed the old man had done his disappearing act again.

Just when Han Xin thought he had been rejected a single word escaped her lips almost soundlessly, "Okay." He felt elation surge through him akin to sunlight breaking through storm clouds. If he had a tail, it would be wagging wildly behind him right now.
