Xie Jie however did not reply to her, instead, he came to a stop in front of her. He raised his head and looked at Mo Qiang before asking, "Do I look good?"
Mo Qiang's brows furrowed instinctively. She did not understand why this mer was asking her whether he looked good or not, however, when she thought of how powerful this mer was, Mo Qiang did not dare to say anything that would hurt him. In fact, even if she wanted to lie, her eyes and mouth were not willing to do so.
She nodded and said slowly, "You look good but what about it?"
When Xie Jie heard Mo Qiang's response, he smirked at her. Usually, when he looked at her, he was always expressionless, but even then, he looked angelic and beautiful. Now that he was smirking at Mo Qiang, his face lit up with a glow that made Mo Qiang be in a daze.
'He looks excellent,' Mo Qiang thought in her head. If not for the fact that this mer hated her, she would have been tempted to keep him married to her but as she was someone who wanted to keep her life more than beauty by her side, she did not think of keeping Xie Jie by her side by using the fact that he was married to her.
Even if it meant that this beauty would one day belong to someone else.
Though this thought unsettled Mo Qiang, she did not say. After all, this was something that she had decided long ago.
"Mo Qiang, are you sure that you will be able to bring my brother back?" Xie Jie asked with his hands in the pockets of his pants.
Mo Qiang was slightly dazed because of Xie Jie's beauty. As the mer was standing so close to her, she felt a bit drunk. This was her first time realizing that the wise men who used to say that men often got drunk on the beauty of a woman were, in fact, speaking the truth.
Was there a need to even have a good wine when a beauty like this could make her drunk with just his presence?
She had never thought that there could be a mer as beautiful as Xie Jie, if she was not wrong, then if there was someone who could compete with Xie Jie in terms of masculine beauty, it was Fu Qi Hong.
The third prince of the Imperial Family.
"Yes," Mo Qiang replied, trying to shake off the haze that was filling her head, she did not want this mer to think that she was staring at him for far too long. The last thing Mo Qiang wanted was for Xie Jie to get offended because she took a few more glances at him.
As much as he hated her, there was a good chance that he would be upset with her.
However, just as she turned her head away from him, he reached out and caught the collar of her shirt.
'Damn, was I too slow? Did I offend him already?' Mo Qiang thought worriedly in her head. She raised her hands in the air before saying, "I am sorry, I just thought that you looked——"
She did not get a chance to finish her sentence as Xie Jie pulled her down until their faces wrestled inches away from him.
