After coming to his senses, even the usually taciturn Luo Ji couldn't help but ask Ning Xuan, "Aren't you afraid your family will beat you to death?"
Ning Xuan shot back with a look of astonishment. "It's my own marriage; I should be the one to decide. Why would my family want to beat me to death?"
Luo Ji looked as if he had heard the most incredible thing. "You can actually decide on your own marriage?"
"Don't tell me you can't even decide on your own marriage?" Ning Xuan was equally surprised.
Luo Ji fell silent.
"It doesn't matter. You're not like me; I have too many who like me and too many I like. You go be the Emperor's Son-in-Law; it's the best of both worlds! Don't worry, I'll support you all the way!" Ning Xuan cheered him on.
"Who said I don't… don't have anyone…" Luo Ji subconsciously protested, his voice dwindling.
"If you had someone, you wouldn't be attending this gathering. You'd be unfair to…" Ning Xuan blurted out but quickly clamped his mouth shut.
