"Do you mean you want me to refuse?" Qing Zhu looked at Ye Xuan, wondering what he meant. Did he want her to agree or not? Was this really okay?
"No, I never even dreamed that you would agree! How could I want you to refuse? Once you agree, you can't go back on it; otherwise, I'd rather be dead." Ye Xuan had never been so vulnerable before; upon hearing Qing Zhu's hesitation, he refused to relent.
"Nonsense." Qing Zhu immediately covered his mouth. How could he say such things so rashly?
