Si Mobai frowned upon hearing this. After all, he was afraid that she was in pain and also reluctant for her to shed tears, so he took his hand back and no longer pulled her. Instead, both his hands just hung at his sides as he said with a cold face, “Speak quickly. Don’t think that you can muddle through this by coming with this nonsense.”
He must find out the truth behind the story no matter what the reason was!
Even if she stripped herself naked, she could not stop it!
He absolutely would not be tempted by her. Absolutely not!
“Mobai, don’t you like me?” Feng Tianlan put her arms around his neck and raised her beautiful eyes to gaze directly at him.
Si Mobai briefly glared at her in admonishment and said, “Hurry up and talk.”
She was trying to get away with it by bringing up his affection. He was determined not to let her change the topic!
“Mobai, I like you very much. I like you desperately…” she said.
“Let’s talk about the matter at hand first.” Si Mobai interrupted her words. However, his stony voice softened slightly. Realizing this, he felt useless for beginning to give in after just one sentence from her.
No, he had to be tough!
He must not let her get away with the matter!
“Mobai, I will talk. But can you let me finish first?” Feng Tianlan hugged his neck and pouted her lips. She used a normal girl’s lovable voice to act coy with him.
Si Mobai asked, “Isn’t it so you can bluff your way through this?”
Feng Tianlan shook her head vigorously and said, “How can that be? I will certainly talk. Besides, take a look at the sincerity in my eyes. Does it look like I’m doing that?”
Si Mobai nodded very seriously and said, “It does appear that way.”
“Then are you going to listen?” Feng Tianlan stared at him. She was clearly very sincere, right?
Si Mobai’s face was stony as he briefly nodded and said, “Yes.” As long as she did not evade the issue, everything was fine. Not to mention the way she was making him feel.
Feng Tianlan was satisfied and kissed him on the lips. She continued to speak earnestly, saying, “Mobai, I like you very much. There is no doubt about that. I never care whether a person will be angry or not, whether they’ll be happy or not. I do not care much about a person’s joy or sorrow.
“But ever since I found you, Mobai, I care very much. I am afraid you will be angry. I want to share your unhappiness; I want to see you laugh. I love you and I will use my whole life to love you.”
“Is that enough?” Si Mobai interrupted her gently.
Feng Tianlan frowned and said, “I’m being serious with you.” The nice atmosphere was disrupted.
“A lifetime is not enough. It must be throughout all of our lifetimes.” Si Mobai placed his arms behind her back to protect her.
“So greedy, but I’ll allow you to act like that.” With that, Feng Tianlan dropped another kiss on his lips.
“Go on,” he said.
Feng Tianlan obediently gave him another peck on the lips; one of the hard, smacking kinds.
The corners of Si Mobai’s lips twitched. The anger inside his heart subsided a little because of her kisses. He said, “I meant to say to go on talking, not continue kissing.”
“Then let’s finish kissing before talking.” Feng Tianlan pouted. If she did not kiss him a couple of times to first steady his anger, he really would kill Xi Jin in a while. But looking at Mobai’s gorgeous and soft lips, she really wanted to kiss him.
Si Mobai frowned and said, “I’ll give you 15 minutes.” He could not let her procrastinate any longer, or she would really get away with it later.
“Mobai, you are more important to me than anyone else. If you and the people I care about are in danger, and I can only save one, then I’ll save other people…” she said.
Si Mobai’s slightly calmed anger flared up again from that jab. Was this what she meant when she said he was more important than anyone else?
