Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 1056

Zuko's words took Lina aback. "Repay?"

Zuko grew more triumphant. "Yeah. Do you think I'd help you for nothing?"

Lina's eyebrows furrowed. "So, now you're helping me but expecting something in return?"

Zuko's heart sank, realizing the misunderstanding.

The girl on the screen had a serious expression. "I see, Zeke. So, it turns out that your help always comes with a purpose! You weren't like this before. When you used to help me, you always said you were happy to do it! Ah, it seems that a man's words are really unreliable..."

Zuko panicked. "No, no, they're reliable! I was just kidding earlier. I don't want you to repay me!"

Lina burst into laughter, revealing that she was teasing him.

Zuko was momentarily stunned, realizing he had fallen for her playful act. The fluttering feeling in his heart returned, like a kitten pawing at his emotions.

With mischievous and lively doe eyes on the screen, Lina asked, "So... how are you going to help me?" She was enjoying their banter.

Still caught up in the moment, Zuko momentarily forgot to answer her question.

Lina sweetly smiled, knowing he didn't have a concrete answer. The background behind her displayed the grand palace, a place off-limits to regular people. She just wanted to tease him and continue their conversation.

Snapping out of his daze, Zuko chuckled. "Look up."

Lina raised her eyes to the navy night sky, which resembled luxurious velvet adorned with sparkling stars.

"What do you think? Beautiful, isn't it?"

Lina, rarely admiring the starry sky, couldn't help but be captivated by the natural magnificence. "Mm... It's really beautiful."

Zuko smiled and shared his findings. "I checked online, and they say the stars in Southeast Aciatic are magical. If you make a wish upon the stars, your wish will come true."
