"The only person who can affect my emotions is you."
The garden outside the Plum Courtyard was silent after Xi Ying finished his words. Li Rui silently stared into Xi Ying's black eyes that were filled with intense love.
A moment later, she looked away.
Xi Ying sighed as he also turned his head. He never noticed how Li Rui's fist was clenched tightly inside her sleeves.
Every time she would look into Xi Ying's eyes …especially when he would let her see all the emotions he was feeling, she would feel her heart skip a beat, and then it would beat so quickly that she would fear that it would jump out of her chest.
This feeling…it was very new to her and hence somewhere it scared Li Rui.
To divert her attention away from her confused thoughts, Li Rui asked Xi Ying in a low voice.
"Then why are you angry with me?"
