C6 Chapter 6

"If one day you fail Tinghan, no matter where you go, I will make you die a horrible death."

What Lian Muqing despised the most was Xue Aofeng's appearance of a love saint. No matter how much he paid, he wouldn't get any response, yet he was still willing to do something that would make things difficult for others.

He knew Xia Tinghan too well. As a person who didn't want to trouble others with anything, any of Xue Aofeng's efforts were a burden to Xia Tinghan, because he couldn't give a response.

Lian Muqing took Xia Tinghan's shoulder provocatively and possessively. He took away the champagne from Xue Aofeng in Xia Tinghan's hand and replaced it with a glass of water that he had brought over. "You probably don't know Tinghan well enough. He doesn't drink, and it's not good to drink too much. It's not appropriate for such an occasion."

Xia Tinghan raised his eyebrows slightly, but did not say anything. Xue Aofeng looked at Xia Tinghan, but did not have the intention to expose him.

This was because those who knew Xia Tinghan well knew that he was someone who would not get drunk even after a thousand cups.

And since Xia Tinghan did not want to expose Lian Muqing, then Xue Aofeng naturally would not make things difficult for Xia Tinghan.

Xue Aofeng had already said what he wanted to say, but he did not care about Lian Muqing's plan. Instead, he raised his cup towards Xia Tinghan and drank it all in one gulp. "I drank it all. I heard that one gulp represents deep affection. I wish you happiness. Remember my words and come find me at any time!"

Lian Muqing looked at Xue Aofeng's back and could not help but raise his eyebrows. This person always appeared by Xia Tinghan's side, and even his wedding day was not comfortable.

"What did he tell you?"

The corner of Xia Tinghan's mouth curled up, and his voice was indifferent. He didn't want to say anything. This was probably their first secret, and it would always be a secret. "Nothing."

Lian Muqing couldn't understand Xia Tinghan's attitude. It seemed that his attitude towards him had changed a few days ago. In the past, whenever Xia Tinghan saw him, he couldn't help but throw himself into his arms. There was a smile on his face, which made people feel happy just by looking at him. Although the two of them hadn't developed to the last step, they allowed him to do whatever he wanted. Every time he saw Xia Tinghan blush because of him, his blood would boil and he'd feel happy.

Though the faint sense of happiness troubled him, he could not deny that he was fascinated by it.

However, Xia Tinghan had changed recently. Even though the two of them had already married, Lian Muqing didn't feel Xia Tinghan's joy.

"Did something happen to you recently? Or did I do something that made you unhappy? If I'm not good enough, I can change it."

If this was in the past, Xia Tinghan would've thought that Lian Muqing loved him so much that she was willing to change herself for him.

But now, even if he was given a chance, he still felt disgusted. A person who had sold himself out for money. As expected, he began to regret his decision to get married.

Xia Tinghan was confused. Was he taking revenge on Lian Muqing, or was he mistreating him?

Xia Tinghan held the goblet filled with water between his fingers. His hands climbed onto Lian Muqing's neck, and just like before, his head leaned against Lian Muqing's chest.

"Muqing, do you love me?"

When Lian Muqing heard this, his heart couldn't help but beat violently. He couldn't tell what kind of feeling it was, but he felt a little nervous.

"You know, I love you!"

"Really?"

"Yes."

"Then are you willing to do whatever I ask you to do?"

"I'm willing!"

"Then do you know about Platonic love? Spiritual love transcends physical union. Are you willing to have a Platonic love with me?"
