"Huh?"
Qiao Xixi was dumbfounded.
Jin Ling gently pulled her into his arms.
"Xixi, I want to be your beastman husband. Can I?"
The sudden confession threw Qiao Xixi completely off balance.
She had been planning to tell Jin Ling tonight that their security agreement could end today, that he was free.
"Jin Ling, I..."
"Xixi, please don't reject me yet."
"I..."
In that instant, Qiao Xixi could feel his profound disappointment.
Her heart ached a little, too.
The truth was, in her current situation, it would definitely be safer to have a powerful protector like Jin Ling with her.
But she didn't want to be a burden to him.
Thinking of this, Qiao Xixi's racing heart gradually calmed down.
"Jin Ling, I'm not ready to find a beastman husband right now. Can you give me some time?"
The moment Qiao Xixi finished speaking, the light in those molten-gold eyes visibly dimmed.
But soon, his expression became determined once more.
