Yu An paused. "Forgotten? Vanished?"
"That's right," Lan Ying said, his eyes burning with intensity. "The elders tried everything, but they could only put me into a deep sleep. Only you, my Female Master, can decide whether we live or die."
"An'an, I'll definitely treat you better than him. I won't go around with a sullen look on my face all day like he does. Please, choose me, won't you?"
He put on an expression like he was on the verge of tears. "I want to know what it feels like to be chosen, just once. He has his clan who loves him. All I have is you."
There was an element of performance to it. After so many years, Lan Ying no longer cared about being abandoned back then.
But as he waited for Yu An's answer, he suddenly felt a surge of nervousness.
His palms began to sweat, and his heart pounded in his chest.
What he didn't know was that Lan Yin, whom he had temporarily suppressed, had also awakened. He, too, was waiting for Yu An's answer.
'If Yu An chooses Lan Ying…'
