mu feiran said, "sometimes, i feel that youre a really strange person."
black hawk looked at her. "how am i strange?"
"other people would definitely mind. but you dont care about anything."
black hawk said, "they care about too many things, so instead, they cant get the best."
black hawk held her hand. "they dont know what happiness looks like. but i know."
mu feirans heart warmed.
he said, "they think that a perfect woman is one who is complete and whole. one who is virtuous respects the old and young, brings the children up, and is also obedient. but i dont think so."
mu feiran looked down and asked, "then, what do you think a perfect woman is?"
black hawk said, "i think a woman like you is perfect."
""
mu feirans heart was completely intoxicated.
how could this man say such pleasant words?
when he saw mu feiran blush, black hawk also started laughing.
mu feiran said, "you only know how to tease me."
black hawk said, "i meant what i said."
mu feiran responded, "why would you think that a woman like me is perfect? im clearly not perfect."
black hawk said, "if i like someone, even her flaws become merits. her merits are also merits."
mu feiran said, "you who taught you this? you have such a smooth tongue."
black hawk said, "since i like you, i want you to be happy. since i want you to be happy, of course, the things i say must sound pleasant."
mu feiran blushed once again. she had bowed her head so low that it could not go any lower.
was this a confession?
if no one had taught him to say these things, then he really had the gift of the gab.
he held her hand gently and pulled her softly into his embrace with one arm.
with their bodies pressed close, he gently stroked her back. his fingers were pressed lightly on her skin as they slowly came closer
however, just then.
he suddenly retracted his hands and gripped them surreptitiously.
mu feiran had sensed that he seemed to have shut his eyes before letting go of her.
she looked up and gazed at black hawk.
black hawk said coolly, "i cant do this now."
he could not do what
mu feiran felt even more embarrassed.
black hawk looked at her. "i must wait for an appropriate time when i can truly have you. i cant do this now."
of course, mu feiran was still too embarrassed to say anything. she could only feel her face still burning.
black hawk said, "i just want you to know that im serious about you. im absolutely serious. so i wont touch you now. perhaps ive had women and ive done bad things in the past. but i hope that the relationship between us can be the purest form of affection, without any lust involved. so, i wont touch you now."
mu feirans heart was still pounding as she listened to him.
black hawk said, "so feiran, ill endure it for now and wait for the appropriate juncture."
for such a long time, she had genuinely wondered why he had never gone any further with her.
was he averse to her?
was it because he still felt that she was unchaste?
but now, his explanation made her feel as if her heart had suddenly been filled.
he said, "on that day, i will turn you into the happiest woman."
she had never heard such romantic words before in her lifetime.
when she had been with mo ding back then, their relationship was more of a pragmatic one. it had not been romantic at all.
