Chapter 917: Question of reputation (2)

Sun Ah Cy flinched upon hearing the words that Fu Qi Hong spoke to her. 

"What's wrong?" Fu Qi Hong asked Sun Ah Cy with a calm expression without much agitation shown on his face. "Did you think that I do not understand the reason behind your pursuit? I might be a mer but I am wise enough to know who truly sees behind this face of mine." 

His expression turned solemn as he continued, "No one knows what lies in the future. My face, which is prettier than the rest, might get injured or old one day. When that happens I am afraid that women like you will leave me alone but Miss Qiang? She will stay with me." 

"Because she can see more than just my face," Fu Qi Hong turned his face away and said, "This is why I will choose her, I will choose her again and again over you." 

He left those words and left the room.
