Chapter 47 – The Ice Lord’s Life (part 5)
Bai Xi stupidly stared at the man eating elegantly in front of her, who looked like he didn’t think that what he just said was shocking. He was interested in her? Surely, she was hearing things, or maybe she didn’t hear him correctly. How could this man…
She coughed. “You… You said you are interested in me?”
“Yes, I am very interested in you.”
The porcelain bowl in Bai Xi’s hands hit the ground with a clatter. “You mean… Does that mean that you like me?” Is this the legendary confession? But why didn’t she feel happy?
He met her astonished gaze. “Like? What do you mean by like?”
“Huh?” Bai Xi was shocked again.
Feng Ming put down his chopsticks and picked up an embroidered white handkerchief. He wiped his mouth gracefully before looking at Bai Xi. “What do you mean by like?” he asked seriously.
“This…” What? This man doesn’t understand what it means to like someone? So he didn’t confess? He scared her to death! Then what did he mean by he was interested in her? Besides, why did she suddenly feel that it was a bit of a loss in her heart?
Feng Ming looked at Bai Xi intently, as if waiting for an explanation.
“Hmm…” How should she explain this to him? There are a lot of meanings for the word ‘like’. She can’t explain all of them, and would he even understand them? Suddenly, she had an idea.
“For example, the women who are infatuated with you really like you. They really like you.”
Feng Ming nodded after hearing her words. He lowered his eyes and looked thoughtfully at the cup of sweet osmanthus wine on the table. He didn’t respond.
He should understand her explanation. Bai Xi breathed a sigh of relief. After drinking 3 cups of osmanthus wine, she continued enjoying the food in front of her and temporarily forgot about what just happened. She felt that this man’s so-called interest indicated that her presence was merely a distraction from his ordinary life and that was why he was interested. It wasn’t the legendary confession.
Bai Xi finally finished her food and drank most of the osmanthus wine on the table. She didn’t think that she’d turn out to be an alcoholic! She drank so much wine after her meal. Who made the osmanthus wine so delicious, with the perfect balance of sweet and sour? The fragrance was also tempting.
“Bai Xi,” said Feng Ming.
Bai Xi blinked her beautiful eyes, her black pearls staring straight at Feng Ming’s handsome face. Perhaps it was because she had drunk a bit too much, but her cheeks were a little rosy. There was also a faint mist in her eyes, which added a touch of beauty to her ordinary appearance.
“Then do you like me?” His gold eyes were brilliant. While he looked indifferent, his eyes were a little softer than usual, making it so that people couldn’t look away.
That sentence sobered up Bai Xi and her eyes widened. What was wrong with this man today?
“Is it difficult to answer me?”
“Are you the Ice Lord, Feng Ming?” She really didn’t think that the person in front of her was really His Excellency, The Ice Lord, who was awe-inspiring and infamous.
“It seems that it is difficult for you to answer me, but it doesn’t matter. If the meaning of ‘like’ is how you have explained it, then I like you. It doesn’t matter if you like me since I will make you like me.” He smiled slightly and his expression softened further. He no longer looked indifferent, nor like a god people looked up to. Instead, he looked like a fairy who seduced people and bewitched their hearts. No, he had bewitched Bai Xi’s ordinary heart.
Bai Xi was dumbfounded. What did she just hear? She heard him say that he likes her and that she would like him? Wasn’t he only ‘interested’ in her? How could he like her?
“I’m drunk. I must be drunk. Or, I’m dreaming. Yes, I must be dreaming.” Bai Xi blanked out.
Feng Ming’s expression didn’t change after hearing her words. “Mm, you are indeed drunk. Go to sleep.”
Bai Xi relaxed and her drowsiness caught up to her. She fell asleep on the table, her breathing even.
The moment Bai Xi closed her eyes, his expression returned to indifference. The temperature of the room dropped sharply. “What is it?”
A dark shadow suddenly appeared and knelt in front of him. “Master, three elders sent a letter.”
As soon as the shadow finished speaking, he handed over the letter. Feng Ming didn’t open it immediately. “If it happens again next time, stop it by yourself.”
“Yes, this subordinate will follow Master’s words.” He paused. When he heard that Master was eating with a woman, he couldn’t help his curiosity and came over to take a look secretly. Unfortunately, he wasn’t able to take a look inside the room as a strong force struck him. He almost died! His curiosity almost killed him! “This subordinate will leave now!”
The room quickly became quiet once more. Feng Ming did not pay attention to the letter. Rather, he looked over at the sleeping Bai Xi. It was unclear what he suddenly thought of, but there was a smile in his gold eyes. His appearance was much softer, and even the temperature in the room rose.
“I am really not myself.”
