Ning Guiwan was startled. "Isn't that too soon?"
Quan Yu pinched her chin, lifted it gently, and bent down to kiss her lips. After a long while, their foreheads and noses touching, he asked, "Don't want to marry me?"
Ning Guiwan smiled. "I haven't thought that far ahead."
Quan Yu looked at her, his glassy eyes deep. "Because of Quan Xiangru?"
Ning Guiwan paused for a moment, then replied with a light laugh, "It has nothing to do with him."
"Let's wait a bit longer. I have many things that I haven't figured out yet."
Quan Yu said no more.
When they returned to the Quan Family's old mansion, the old madam had already retired for the night. Quan Yu escorted Ning Guiwan to her room's door. Ning Guiwan couldn't help but chuckle. "I'm already here. You should go back and get some sleep early."
Lai Yang had moved in with Zhang Ziyan, so this room had become Ning Guiwan's alone. She entered the room and saw the empty bedroom, suddenly missing Lai Yang's noisy presence.
