Hu Feng raised an eyebrow, but the smile on his face didn’t lessen. The flame in his eyes even burned with more passion: “What are you thinking?”

The blush on Bai Zhi’s face spread like a burning fire in the grassland. She blushed up to her ears and at the back of her neck. She even suspected that her fever comes back again. Why does she felt so hot?

Who would have thought that BaiZhi, who have always been strong and bold, will also have this kind side? Hu Feng smiled and said: “Alright. I’ll stop teasing you, but there is a written agreement, you can’t deny it. This account will be settled sooner or later.”

Hu Feng stood up to go. Bai Zhi hurriedly grabbed his clothes and looked at him with a red face: “Hu Feng, why are you doing this?”

Hu Feng looked at her eyes, which seemed to be twinkling like stars: “Because I want to do it, that’s why I will do it.”

Bai Zhi really wants to bite off her tongue. Why did she ask such a question?

“But I’m only 12-years-old. You’re already in your 20’s. Don’t you think you’re like a cow eating young grass?”

Hu Feng’s brows slightly frowned, and then he shook his head: “No, besides, you will be 13 next month.”

“What about it? Thirteen is still underage.”

Hu Feng looked at Bai Zhi and hold her hand that was grabbing his clothes. Her hand was white and thin. He put her tiny hand on his palm and said: “According to the rules of the Kingdom of Chu, a thirteen-year-old girl can be engaged and get married after she turned fifteen.”

His hand was very big and his palm was warm. When he held her hand, she felt a sense of security that she had never felt before. Looking at that hand, she even forgot to take back her hand.

Seeing that she didn’t refute, Hu Feng smiled and said: “It seems that you agree.”

When Bai Zhi returned to her senses, she quickly pulled back her hand and said: “I never said that I agree with you. Hu Feng, I will ask you seriously, you answer me seriously too.”

Hu Feng sat back again but sat next to her. There was only a palm distance between them.

The blush on her face didn’t decrease a bit, but the doubts in her heart disappeared. She seriously looked at his face and said: “I know that you have recovered your memory. I also know that your identity is not simple. You will leave here sooner or later to go back to your home. While I- I am just an ordinary farmer in Huangtou Village. I don’t think there is a possibility between us. I think your heart also knows this very clear, so why? Hu Feng, why are you asking me to do such a thing when your not a frivolous and impetuous person? You know this is impossible.”

Hu Feng didn’t look at her, his eyes swept over to the half-opened wooden door, and looked at the ground outside that was drenched in sunlight.

“There is nothing impossible in this world. I know what I am doing. I know what I want to do. You are right. I am not a frivolous and impetuous person. Therefore, I am serious.”

Three years ago, he never thought that there will be a chance for him to live like this today. After all, it’s very impossible for the likes of him.

But when this impossible thing become reality, he understood that there is no definite conclusion in this world. No one can predict what will happen in the future, and there is no absolute possible or impossible thing.

Bai Zhi was startled, yes, what he said was right. What is impossible?

Isn’t her very existence in this world prove this?

When she thought of this, she suddenly smiled and felt relieved.

“What are you smiling about?” Hu Feng asked as he looked at her.
