Chapter 172: A bitter sweet confession

"This Linfeng in front of you, who was he to you, young miss?"

It was Xiong Zhi's turned to be stunned.

If it was another time, she could answer without hesitation that Linfeng was the only man in her heart. Her only light and her fuel to live. Her reason for living for a second time.

But she could not get out those words in her mouth in front of those inquiring eyes. They were so serious and watchful that whatever she said would be turn out a lie. Not it was a lie for her but it would be for him.

"Linfeng. The Linfeng in front of me is very special to me. A man I dearly hold in my heart." Xiong Zhi answered back with utmost seriousness. The playfulness and mischief earlier were gone. She was answering truthfully.

Linfeng watched her. He unconsciously clenched his hand. 

His heart was beating wildly.

Is this what he wanted to hear?

Does he really want to hear it?
