409 Mutual Love

Rean scratched the back of his head as he followed Qia. While they walked, she began to talk through Spiritual Sense Message.

"What's wrong with you? I have the feeling that you've been avoiding me for some time already."

Rean immediately denied that notion.

"Why would I do that? We already confirmed that we would accept this fake marriage thing since it would benefit both of us. If we didn't find each other in the last few days, that was just a coincidence."

Obviously, that wasn't. But Rean wouldn't say that.

Qia narrowed her eyes before looking back at him.

"Was it because of what I did?"

"What you did?"

Rean pretended to think about that question.

"What did you do exactly?"

"That day before I left, I k-k-kissed you, remember?"

Rean nodded as if he had been enlightened.
