Yue Yue opened her mouth to deny him, but the words died in her throat.
The moment she tried to pull away, Feng Yanshen's expression became even more heartbroken.
He looked down, his long, silky eyelashes casting dark shadows under his silver eyes. He looked so sad and pitiful that Yue Yue felt her heart clench painfully.
She didn't know what to do. This was the most powerful man in the world, yet he was acting like she had just shattered his soul into pieces.
Suddenly, he lifted his gaze and looked her directly in the eye. "Yue Yue... do you really not want me to be your beast husband?"
Yue Yue almost choked on her own breath. In her mind, she was screaming, "Yes! I'm still terrified of you!"
She was honestly afraid that if she rejected him, he might snap again, go crazy, and bury her right here in this forest so she would not be alive to tell the tale of his disgrace.
But then, Feng Yanshen said something that completely shocked her.
