"What's the matter?" he asked, puzzled.
"Nothing, I've just realized..."
"Realized what?"
"Hehe, I can't quite put it into words." Qu Tan'er indeed couldn't articulate it. That feeling was strange, a bit warm and soft, flowing and swirling in the depths of her heart, making her comfortable, content, and fulfilled, with a sense that being alive was truly wonderful.
Mo Liancheng's eyes shimmered slightly as he gently embraced her to prevent her from jostling about, and whispered, "Come on, tell me, is Qu Xinning next?" He had guessed as much from the moment she agreed to meet with Qu Xinning.
"She gave me the opportunity herself, of course I have to seize it well."
"Hmm..."
Suddenly recalling something, Qu Tan'er asked, "Do you really want the Heart Suppressing Pearl from the Qu family?"
"You remember?" Mo Liancheng raised an eyebrow.
"Of course, I remember. Tell me, do you want it or not?"
"I do."
"Why? What's it for?"
"I don't know."
