"Why?" Mo Beichen pressed further, feeling something was amiss, but he couldn't quite pinpoint what it was.
Gu Qian didn't answer him. "Second, never ask me why. Even if you ask, I won't explain. But since I've come back, what I can promise you is that I will remain loyal to you in both body and mind."
Mo Beichen squinted his eyes, clearly surprised. "Are you saying..."
"Third, you can't force me to do anything I don't want to do, especially marital duties." Gu Qian quickly added the third condition before he could ask, "If you agree, I'll stay. If not, I'll leave right now."
Mo Beichen gritted his teeth. "Qianqian, are you making me see it but not have it?"
Gu Qian's heart skipped a beat. She turned her head, avoiding his eyes. "I've said it, if you agree, I'll stay. If you can't accept it, then I'll leave now."
