Chapter 1648: Sincere Feelings
Situmu Murong caressed Liu Ying's cheek, taking pleasure in the smooth and soft skin of her face. The way they were interacting romantically, gave him the illusion that they were close to each other.
Yes, just an illusion! He snapped back to reality suddenly. Between them, it was indeed just a figment of his imagination. They were neither in love, nor close. In fact, there was quite a bit of tension. If only Liu Ying was a bit more obedient, he thought, then he wouldn't have to be so weary. If only Liu Ying was willing, he could give her a rightful place in his life. No one, not even his own mother, would be able to stop him. However, if Liu Ying was unwilling, then perhaps there really was nothing between them. Lost in his thoughts, Situmu didn't notice the mocking expression on Liu Ying's face. He only realized she had brushed his hand away.
