Chapter 987: Tyrant!

It was merely a couple of sentences, but it felt more draining than a full-out battle. All the strength was lacking in her body, even her body couldn't help but sway unsteadily...

This time, there was no reservation and she simply blurted out her feelings in a forceful confession... Now that her wish had been accomplished, Miao Xiao Miao felt embarrassed as the realization hit her. Things were over already over, but she felt confused. Where did I get all that earlier courage from?

Biting her lips and rolling her eyes, she looked at Jun Mo Xie, suddenly feeling a wave of frustration. This fool, I have already made it so clear already. Why aren't you coming to comfort me? Even a light hug would be good...

Yet her face began to turn red from this thought. Pei, Pei, what am I thinking about ah... How can I be so shameless... But... I wonder how would it feel to be hugged in his arms...

"What are you thinking about?" Miao Xiao Miao gathered all her courage to say something, but this was the sentence that left her mouth.

"I'm thinking... what should I do..." Jun Mo Xie sighed.

"What 'what should you do'... Don't worry, you are the owner of the legendary Free and Natural Physique. All the old seniors of the Misty Illusory Manor hold you in high regard; as long as you work hard in your cultivation, your achievements will definitely be remarkable and you'll undoubtedly advance rapidly... Although you do not have any foundations and relations currently, no one will neglect your potential growth... Even compared to me, your status is not that much lower... I really don't understand what you are worrying about; since you have the guts to offend the Zhan Family, what's the problem with dating me... You don't have to undervalue yourself..." Miao Xiao Miao comforted.

In her heart, of course she assumed that Jun Mo Xie was worried about her high status. He felt that his current position was still not worthy enough to be her match... So she did everything she could to comfort him. I must not let him look down upon himself or make him undervalue himself...

"That is not what I am thinking about; you don't understand..." Jun Mo Xie mumbled. "And I still can't understand why you would make a decision like this..."

"Does this really need a reason?" Miao Xiao Miao cheekily questioned him back, her beautiful eyes glistened as she recounted. "Since I first met you, you've given me a completely different feeling... You felt like a complete country bumpkin, but when faced with a young master from an influential families like Gu Fei Yu, you forced him into a disadvantageous position step by step, ultimately causing him to suffer injuries and vomit blood... At that point in time, Gu Fei Yu could've killed you with a finger alone, but you still managed to push him to that state... It was really admirable..."

Jun Mo Xie rubbed his nose and laughed bitterly. You really think too highly of Gu Fei Yu! Is he capable of killing me with a finger alone? And you also really think too highly of me! I can easily crush him with my finger in reality; how can I not be confident!

"And the poems you come up with randomly... Every single line is so enchanting. This made me realize what an erudite you are..." Miao Xiao Miao raised her eyes, admiration and adoration in them.

Young Lady, you have once again thought too highly of me; all those are plagiarized, ah...

Jun Mo Xie lamented helplessly in his head...

"Afterwards, you bravely faced the challenge and turned every single round into a victory despite all the difficulties... And forcing the opponent to be unable to show their face... Be it in chess or music, they were all full of surprises... It's as if there is nothing that you do not know... Do you know how irresistible these are to a woman..."

All those were also plagiarized... Why did I do it... Could it be that I've dug my own grave... Jun Mo Xie whined internally.

"At that point in time, I promised you that... If you were able to win, I'd let you remove my veil... Actually, at that point in time, I was still uncertain and doubtful..." Miao Xiao Miao laughed at herself. "Until the moment just now, when you were faced with that attack, on the brink of death, I... I... I only realized that there was a sudden ache in my heart... and I was genuinely sad..."

"At that point in time, I asked myself: if you had died... what would I do? Then I heard myself saying: if you died... then I don't want to live either... So I rushed out... Actually, even until now, I still do not understand what is it for, but either way, I just charged my way out..."

"And the way you maintained that cheeky and teasing attitude when faced with enemies that you could barely fight, not even viewing them seriously and not paying great attention to your own safely... This sort of carefreeness and magnimousity... was really very enthralling..."

Jun Mo Xie finally let out a long sigh. What else could it be? It's just because I am confident that I'll absolutely win, ah, you lass... All the things you've mentioned, it is all ultimately because I have trump cards in my hands...

Jun Mo Xie was a little at a loss about what to say. He did not expect this... What is going on... I just randomly captured a maiden's heart like this?

Young Master Jun may be someone from two worlds and was extremely clever, but he had never understood the hearts of maidens in both lives. The feelings of a maiden were a complete mystery. A young maiden may not develop feelings of adoration after spending several years with a man, but she may just fall in love without any complaints with a man she had just met... And never change her mind on it!

A maiden's heart was the most difficult thing to comprehend in the world...

"I still feel that our meeting... is really too brief. Miss Miao, I'd advise you to... reconsider carefully... after all, it has only been a day... And we do not understand each other that well; we don't even understand each other..." Jun Mo Xie said.

"Ah...?" Miao Xiao Miao cried in surprise, as if she had snapped out of her dreams. "If you didn't mention it, I'd have forgotten about it... So we've only met each other today... But I feel as if... we've known each other for three eternities already..."

Then her expression turned flustered. "Then... did you think... did you think that I... I... I'm a... very easy girl...?" Her expression was very nervous, as if she was very concerned about this.

"... I didn't." Jun Mo Xie sighed and comforted.

"That's good, that's good..." Miao Xiao Miao heaved a sigh of relief. Thinking back on the issue earlier, she pouted. "The duration of time spent knowing each other... what can it represent? I have known people like Zhan Qing Feng and Zhan Yu Shu for years... but so what? Didn't I only learn of their true colors today?"

Jun Mo Xie was completely speechless. Could this be the legendary 'woman in love'? To be this blinded...

Actually, Miao Xiao Miao was feeling extremely nervous. From the exchanges with this Mo Jun Ye, she could tell that this youth was the person she had dreamt of entrusting her lifelong happiness to.

But this Mo Jun Ye seemed to have a huge flaw. Or perhaps to say, a strong point: other men would either be drooling or stumped when they saw a great beauty, but this guy with the legendary Free and Natural Physique? He was capable of all flowery languages, but when he really saw a beautiful girl, he completely disregarded her and found all sorts of excuses...

If she was hoping for someone like him to take the initiative to confess, all the flowers would have wilted.

Does he really want me, a girl, to take the initiate? This is truly so embarrassing!

I don't care anymore! A good man like this, if I don't put my reservations aside, and take the initiative, who knows when he'll be snatched away by someone else. Fastest finger wins! Hasn't my veil already been removed by myself today? What harm is there in being proactive once more...

Miao Xiao Miao may seem like a quiet and graceful girl, but she was a girl that dared to love and hate! What she liked, she would do everything in her power to obtain it! Because this was her lifelong happiness! No one else could replace her to do it!

Towards other matters, Miao Xiao Miao definitely had many reservations. But when it came to her true love, she was unusually courageous about it! Because... her environment also forced her... there was indeed not much time left for Miao Xiao Miao to make her choice...

If she was unable to make up her mind quickly, perhaps she would become the sacrificial object for her family's benefits within the next few days!

Especially when there were only five days until the opening of the Spiritual Herbal Gardens. If the Rainbow Holy Tree didn't choose her, then she'd have to face the problem of marriage the moment she came out!

There was no doubt about this! All the so-called dream meetings were just her one-sided childish thoughts. It was completely impossible!

So Miao Xiao Miao didn't have any time left to drag it out...

If fact, if Jun Mo Xie had agreed readily from the moment she confessed, Miao Xiao Miao might doubt her own choice. But the more Jun Mo Xie rejected, the more determined Miao Xiao Miao was about her decision...

This was a peculiar way of thinking. Not just Miao Xiao Miao—any human would have this sort of mentality. The more you got refused, the more you'd desire it. What you could not have would always be the best...

Miao Xiao Miao could finally be relieved after saying everything she wanted to say.

She couldn't help but turn red from the thought of her own act. It was as if she was forcing a marriage. She was like a tyrant who snatched a bride to force her to marry himself... As her mind wandered, a thought popped in her heart. It doesn't matter whether you agree or not; either way, I have my eyes set on you. You are destined to become mine now. If I say that you are, then you are, even if you aren't! Whatever! You have to agree, and even if you disagree, you'll have to agree...

Her mind was wandering all over the place, and she didn't know what she was thinking about anymore. She only felt as if she were floating on a cloud, speaking whatever was on her mind. She unconsciously spilled her thoughts. "It doesn't matter whether you agree or not; either way, I have my eyes set on you. You are destined to become mine now. If I say that you are, then you are, even if you aren't! Whatever! You have to agree, and even if you disagree, you'll have to agree..."

The moment she said it, she shrieked in embarrassment, squatting onto the ground and covering her face. The embarrassment was too much! Goodness... Why did I say something like this? Things like this can just be kept inside... why did I accidentally spill it subconsciously... And it is even heard by him... It's all over ah...

Right now, Jun Mo Xie was completely stupefied.
