Wen Ran was caught completely off guard by the sudden proposal.
A question like this left her at a loss for how to respond.
Several seconds later, Wen Ran collected herself and, with a slightly awkward smile, reminded him, "Didn't the contract stipulate that we could only stay married if we fell in love with each other? Are you proposing this because you've fallen for me?"
"I've never disliked you," he replied.
She twitched the corner of her mouth.
The same answer again.
Like is like, and dislike is dislike.
Why did he always say things like "I guess I don't hate you" or "I've never disliked you"?
Wen Ran's interest faded a little. As she lowered her head to pick at her food, she pressed on, "So, do you like me? Two words for 'yes, I do,' and three for 'no, I don't.' Pick one."
