"I'm only seventeen."
Ling Xiao glanced around evasively. Though he seemed quite carefree usually, when it came to women, he was still a novice. How could he resist a pretty girl's flirtations?
"What does seventeen matter? On the White Tiger Continent, marriage and childbirth at sixteen are common."
Liu Lian bit her lip lightly and said, "Unless you look down on me, think I'm beneath you."
"I already have a woman I like."
Ling Xiao said simply.
"I don't care."
Liu Lian shook her head very decisively, without a trace of hesitation, as if she had already made up her mind long ago.
"But I care."
Ling Xiao shook his head.
Just as Liu Lian was about to say something else, there was suddenly a commotion below.
"Something's wrong, Sun Wu Shuang from the Sun Family has brought people here, probably intending to forcibly take Miss away."
