With that, he suddenly turned his head, his gaze locking directly onto Cui Lingyao. He smiled and said, "How about we make a bet?"
"If you win, this Prince will grant you a promise. If this Prince wins… you need only answer a single question."
Cui Lingyao was about to refuse without a second thought.
"Think carefully before you answer,"
The superficial smile on his face faded as Xie Jinbai's eyes darkened. "You're the one who said, 'fortune favors the bold.' Is a promise from this Prince not worth the risk?"
To wager the answer to a single question for one of his promises.
It was an absolute steal.
The onlookers, putting themselves in her shoes, were all rather envious.
Cui Lingyao did hesitate.
It wasn't that she particularly coveted his promise, but rather the warning implicit in his words.
Clearly, he hadn't dismissed his suspicions and was still relentlessly testing her.
'Constantly avoiding it won't solve the problem.'
