Plans

Getting permission to get out of there was quite easy, His powers were influencing them and he was able to get out of there. Getting out will and Ziyun were walking together toward her yard. Once they got near there he started talking in order to destroy this awkward atmosphere.

Will: So, You were forced huh?

Ziyun: Ha... a...no it is not like that.

Will: really? because i think you don't like me that much.

Ziyun: no, its not that.

just as they were going to reach her yard, Ziyun's foot was held by something and she nearly fell on the ground, but before that happens Will held her from her waist and hand. then pulled her toward himself. He was holding her close to his body and her hand in his hand. She was turning red, this was the first time someone aside from her father and grand father had touched her, and even for them it was when she was small. So this was basically her first time being in contact with the opposite sex.

Will: are you okay, asked will with concern.

Ziyun: Yes i'm okay. Thank you for that.

Will: No it was what was expected of me.

Will: so, you didn't answer my previous question?

Will asked her, while still holding onto her. She was flushing red and couldn't answer him since her mind was in a race, first because she being held and second was that she didn't dislike their position, and wanted to stay like that more, she was even holding on to him, as if she was afraid she would lose his warmth. His hold where she felt safe, the same feeling she last had when her mother was alive.

After a few minutes of silence, will asked once more, but this time his question was different as if he was teasing her.

Will: so how long will you keep holding on to me like this.

Ziyun:: ah, im sorry, i didn't mean to do that,

Ziyun was not able to answer completely, her heart was beating very fast and her mind in a disarray.

Ziyun: i wanted to say that, i had already accepted the engagement proposal.

Will: huh, really, but may i ask why, since i haven't met you yet, and it can't be that you accepted just because of family pressure right. if that is so, tell me and i would tell your father that i would not make this engagement.

Ziyun: no it is nothing like that, i had already seen you when you first came here, and a week ago i was able to meet Ninger, and how she came to know you, she talked about you and said a lot of things about you, so i wanted to meet you, to see if you were a good guy. You see she was childhood friend and back then we had decided to marry the same person. a few days ago she also accepted me and accepted the fact that i would be together with you. and i have also seen that you are a good person, and would take good care of me as well, call it women intuition if you want, but i could sense that from you, it was like your hug was the safest place in the world.

Will: huh, she did now huh. (while he was gleeful inside, of course he knew about it, nothing could escape his prediction, he had seen every route into the future, every decision every mistake. That was the reason that why he never lost). and everything seem to go his way.

Will: well then, if you have thought that much about it, then who am i to stop you.

then they went and back in the main hall, accepted the engagement with each other, that was when Ye Zung asked something from will.
