Si Nuanqian rattled off a whole litany of complaints.
Shangguan Lingqi, however, did not retort with his usual sharp tongue but instead fell into sudden silence.
Si Nuanqian had just blurted it out without thinking, not realizing anything amiss at the moment, but after the air turned quiet, she finally caught on.
Crap!
What on earth was she rambling about!
The more she thought about it, the more it sounded like she wanted to be Shangguan Lingqi's wife!
The calm and peaceful night seemed to grow a touch warmer and more ambiguous thanks to Si Nuanqian's unintentional words.
Si Nuanqian was mentally howling in regret, wishing she could find a hole to crawl into, when Shangguan Lingqi finally spoke.
"When you're dead, you're gone, what use is having lots of stuff?"
"..." Si Nuanqian.
"It's getting late. You should go to sleep; I'm going to sleep too," Shangguan Lingqi said as he stood up and slowly made his way upstairs.
