A wave of irritation rose in Sunxiao's heart when he heard Qiao Xixi say she had a beast husband.
"Don't worry. Even though Qiao Lie is your cub, I definitely won't force you to become my beast husband."
Sunxiao's eyes darkened. "You don't want me to be your beast husband?"
Huh.
'Why does it feel like we're talking past each other?'
Qiao Xixi looked at him, confused.
"You aren't planning to force yourself to become my beast husband just so it's more convenient to take care of Qiao Lie, are you?"
At this thought, Qiao Xixi waved her hands dismissively.
"No, no! Someone as powerful as you shouldn't have to lower themselves like that."
Sunxiao saw through her. Everything Qiao Xixi had said before was a lie.
His long legs instantly transformed into a snake tail that coiled around her, pulling her before him.
"Hey! What are you doing?"
Their eyes locked. His icy breath washed over her face.
"You said before that you liked me a lot."
