章 87: Chapter 87: An Accident

"What do you mean by this?" Zuo Xiangning's face changed slightly, she gently patted his back and asked softly, "What happened?"

Lingxiao held her but said nothing more.

Zuo Xiangning guessed, "Is it because your family doesn't agree to marry me?"

Lingxiao pushed Zuo Xiangning slightly away, staring into her eyes, he asked, "Are you still willing to marry me?"

Zuo Xiangning hesitated.

"You are not willing?" Lingxiao's face turned a shade paler.

"A marriage not approved by parents and family won't be a happy one," Zuo Xiangning's heart felt as bitter and astringent as if she had swallowed Coptis, "I don't want you to quarrel with your elders because of me. Your status and position deserve someone better by your side."

"I will marry you, no one can stop me!" Lingxiao's eyes reddened, he asked in a deep voice, "I just want to know, if one day, I am abandoned by everyone, would you still be willing to marry me?"

Zuo Xiangning met his gaze, and tears suddenly flowed down.
