Lin Xuan was truly stunned; he didn't expect Bai Qian Qian to make such a request.
"Tell me, when did you start liking me?" Lin Xuan asked.
Bai Qian Qian's face instantly flushed crimson. She stomped her foot and said, "Aiya, it's not like that! It's just a pretend relationship."
What, pretend? Lin Xuan was dumbfounded once again.
Ignoring her blushing face, Bai Qian Qian raised her head and spoke quickly. "My family has arranged a marriage for me. The other party is a young master from an Alchemy Clan."
"But this person has a terrible reputation. He frequently harasses respectable women and commits all sorts of evil deeds. He's a notorious bully."
"How could I possibly marry someone like that?"
"But the other party's status is extraordinary, so my family won't agree if I refuse him directly."
"That's why I need to find a partner, to show everyone that I'm not single anymore."
"This way, my family should stop trying to force me into a marriage alliance with him."
