637 I will give you a legitimate title. (2)

His eyes turned cold and his face contorted with rage. "I've never said that you're a pawn!"

"You're willing to be engaged with your so-called 'pawn', but you can't even give me a legitimate title; am I not even worth a pawn in your eyes?!"

She laughed coldly. Her retort made his face even darker.

He was frozen in that instant.

"What do you mean?"

She smiled as she tried to remain calm, but a tremble could still be perceived in her voice. "Mu Yazhe, I like you. What about you? Do you like me, too?"

His lips parted, but no words came out.

The word 'like' was stuck in his throat, unable to be voiced out.

He was a proud and arrogant man, so he could not easily utter the word 'like' before the woman he had feelings for.

At his silence, the smile on her face slightly cooled.

"I'll tell you this, too! Since I like you, I can acknowledge you and even give you my heart, so what about you? Can you do the same?"

He could.
