Minerva had never known that he cared so much about her, not to mention that he was so serious.
She couldn't help laughing in a low voice. "What are you doing? I'm just joking with you."

Minerva nodded and replied, “Yes, of course, it’s just a joke."

"What, what's wrong?” she stammered.
Did she just say something wrong? She had already explained that she was joking? But Maddox still had a serious look.
Maddox stared at her silently. After a long while, he said, "Is it because the time is too short?"
Minerva, "What?"
“Because of the short period of time, you don't have deep feelings for me. so you can take this matter as a joke.”Minerva didn't know what to say.

Minerva was even more anxious. She had no choice but to grab his hand.
"Are you angry? Then I'll apologize to you. I was wrong just now. I won't say it again in the future, okay?"
