Mu Ning's eyes instantly widened. She pointed at him in disbelief.
"Are you crazy? You have a fiancée! If people misunderstand our relationship, she'll definitely spread all kinds of ridiculous rumors!"
She crossed her arms and huffed.
"Maybe I used to have the tiniest bit of interest in you before, but now? Not even a little. I still want my reputation."
Liam looked at her calmly. "For whom?"
Mu Ning answered without hesitation. "For my future husband, obviously."
Liam stared at her for several seconds before nodding. "I see."
Mu Ning immediately sighed in relief.
Thankfully, he seemed to have understood. However, Liam's next sentence nearly made her explode.
"Then make that six months. I'll announce it over the academy broadcast."
Mu Ning froze. "...What?"
Liam smiled leisurely.
"Weren't you worried about your reputation? If everyone knows you're simply repaying your mentor by being a slave, no one will misunderstand."
