Chương 128: Chapter 127: His Bluntness Caught Her Off Guard

Because she was so close, Xiao Ruo looked up at him with her head slightly tilted, just watching him like that.

He too looked down, returning her gaze from inches away, allowing her to examine him as she pleased.

A moment later, he was the first to break the silence, "Is there anything you want to ask?"

Since he had decided to move to the county town with her after the New Year, he hadn't intended to conceal the Yuan Family Brothers' matter from her, today simply resulted in her meeting Yuan Xiao a bit earlier than planned.

She bit her lip and countered, "Is there anything Brother Fu would like to tell me?"

Actually, Xiao Ruo was ambivalent; on the one hand, she hoped he would tell her the truth, while on the other hand, she worried that the secrets he carried were too shocking and something she might not be able to accept.

Seeing that she was almost biting through her lip, he reached out, lifted her chin, and his slender fingers gently caressed her lower lip.
