Chapter 172 - In what way did I seduced him? (1/2)

Hearing Xie Ming's words, the atmosphere around him suddenly became chilly and distant.

His jaw tightened and his palms turned into fists.

He was trying to hide his displeasure as he does not want her to be scared of him but her question bothered him.

' Does she think of me that way? Is she think that I am cheap and only wants to sleep with her.' he misunderstood her words and that angered him.

He couldn't believe that she could think of him in this way.

Xie Ming looked at him and noticed the change in his attitude and expressions.

She looked into his distant eyes and realized that she said something wrong.

Because she asked him this question as Zhao Ming but he has no idea about it. So it's natural for him to misinterpret her words.

Xie Ming felt slightly scared when she saw his angry and cold expressions.

This expression was the same when she met him for the first time in the hospital when he asked her for the divorce.

At that time she didn't bother with his behavior as he was no one for her. But now, she realized that she... likes him.

Don't know if it is love or not but she definitely couldn't imagine to apart with him. And if she were to stay in this world, it would not be bad to spend her life with him.

She couldn't imagine her life without him.

Xie Ming looked at him with her gentle and innocent eyes, and before he could say anything, she raised her hands and held his face in her hands, while going on tiptoes.

She raised her head and kissed him on his lips.

The kiss was not hurried but slow and gentle.

Liwei was stunned with her sudden kiss. He was angry at her for asking him such a question but the next moment she went on her tiptoes to kiss him?

He couldn't understand what goes on her head.

But seeing her baby like an innocent face from so close, he forgot his anger and let her do what she was doing.

He enjoys whenever she takes initiative.

Xie Ming parted with his lips and looked into his eyes and said, ” I am sorry. I shouldn't have asked you this question. It's just... I am still not able to believe that you like me. It's all feel like a dream.”

” I have faced many betrayals in my life, I don't want another one and especially from you. Because if that happens then I don't know if I could get over with it for my whole life or not,” she said as a tear made it's way to her cheeks.

Her voice became heavy. She doesn't want to cry especially at this moment but she suddenly remembered all the painful memories and her father's bloodied body and his helpless face when she met him for the last time.

At that time she realized that she has done the biggest mistake of her life. If she didn't marry into the palace, her life would be something else.

She might go to other villages with her father to treat patients and could even achieve heights in medicine like her father and her name will also be recorded in the history.

But life has chosen something different for her.

...

Liwei was startled with the sudden change in the atmosphere. He didn't expect her to become so emotional at this moment.

He looked at her and held her tiny face in his large hands and looked into her eyes and said, ” Xie Ming. If I wanted to betray you, then I would not have been married to you. If I married you then I will fulfill my duties as a husband and will always remain loyal to you for my whole life.”

” This I promised you when we got married. At that time I don't even love you. But still I promised something big to you, so what do you think that I will do when I love you so much now? Hm? ”

He asked her as he raised his eyebrows.

He doesn't know why she was so scared and why she doesn't feel secure with him. But he realized that he needs to make her relax and give her time to feel the sincerity in his words and actions.

Xie Ming's insecurity dissipated with his words. Tears welled up in her eyes.
