At that question, Feng Jingyi's heart skipped a beat. She never expected Xu Qi to bring it up at all as it was quite inconsequential to his mission.
However, as she remembered the intimacy that had been slowly brewing between them, she almost stuttered at her answer, "Uhm, Young Master Xu, I've had my fair share of admirers, but nothing...nothing serious."
"Hmm? Really nothing? With your beauty and talent, I find that quite hard to believe," With slightly raised eyebrows, Xu Qi probed with his voice filled with genuine curiosity.
Feng Jingyi nodded. "My focus has always been on my cultivation. I don't have the luxury to entertain such distractions."
With her voice firm and carrying her conviction, Xu Qi couldn't help but nod in approval.
However, he's not just going to drop it there. He wanted to hear more of her inner thoughts. Partly for his mission and partly for his own interest.
