Yuan Ye felt a surge of heat rush to his head.

His face flushed red instantly.

Why is this woman so bold? Why does she say everything?

But he couldn't deny that her words gave him a secret sense of pleasure.

It wasn't about comparing her to anyone else—it was about him being the one who brought her happiness.

This is an affirmation of a man.

Yuan Ye was furious, embarrassed, and annoyed. After a long while, she didn't know what to say.

Jiang Tian's gaze remained sincere as she stared at Yuan Ye: "You're all I have left. I don't really care how long I live, but if you suffer because of me, I definitely won't be happy."

A soft, boneless hand rested on his chest, gently stroking it.

"Just consider this a fleeting romance. I won't treat you like a prince, and you shouldn't treat me like anyone else. You and I are just an ordinary couple in this world. We only need to care about each other."

"Let's forget those hatreds for now. I hope there is only happiness between us, just like the unbridled happiness you gave me."

Jiang Tian gently kissed his lips, her eyes filled with affection; no one could easily refuse her.

Yuan Ye should have told her at this moment that she had taken advantage of him, and now she wanted to wipe the slate clean, saying it was all a scam.

But when faced with her gaze, he couldn't utter a single word.

Thinking about it, she wasn't wrong.

The antidote was in his hands, and so was her life.

This woman couldn't escape his grasp at all.

Rather than carrying the burden of hatred and feeling awkward, it's better to start a relationship with this woman cleanly and end it cleanly.

After all, romantic love was not a big deal to him; he had the throne and the country in his heart—those were what he was fighting for.

He poured far too much emotion into Jiang Tian.

Instead of constantly entangled with her—one moment hating her, the next unable to let her go—it's better to honestly face your own heart.

This world will be his sooner or later, and Jiang Tian will be his too.

He didn't think he would love this woman for very long.

The two are ten years apart in age, and he will definitely pursue his own empire.

"Have you practiced any evil magic from the Miao region?"

Yuan Ye suddenly asked a somewhat abrupt question.

If this woman hadn't cast a curse on him, how could he have repeated the same mistake time and time again?

Now, he actually agreed with her idea.

He should make love to her as soon as possible, so that she won't keep distracting him.

But why her of all people?

Why does he feel such a flutter in his heart when he sees her?

On the night of the Lantern Festival, her heart was filled with budding romance, and she couldn't understand it at all.

All he knew was that this woman's attraction to him was fatal.

“No, I didn’t. I grew up in the capital and have never left. How could I possibly learn those evil arts? Why would you ask this question?”

Jiang Tian answered him seriously.

Yuan Ye remained silent.

It took him a while to organize his thoughts: "I don't know why, but I've always been so tolerant of you and have gone easy on you several times. You're right, it's true that you betrayed me, but I've been so addicted to this that I can't extricate myself, which is also a kind of self-destruction."

"It's better to be more open-minded. I won't give you the antidote. You have less than a year to live, so stay with me. When I get tired of you, I'll give you a proper burial."

Jiang Tian hummed in his arms, then looked up at him and said, "Then you should take out the antidote and destroy it. I don't want to live much longer. If possible, I don't want to be born. Destroy the antidote, and you can be with me without any reservations, without worrying that I'll trick you for the antidote. After all, you won't believe everything I say. If the antidote is destroyed, you won't have to worry about me having other ideas."

Yuan Ye looked at her expressionlessly, his tone cold: "The antidote is in my hands. If I don't want to give it to you, you won't get it. Why should you worry about tricking me into giving you the antidote? Whether I want to destroy it or not is none of your business."

"I just want our relationship to be more pure," Jiang Tian explained.

Suddenly, for some unknown reason, Yuan Ye abruptly covered her mouth with his.

This woman always talks nonsense when she shouldn't, which is really annoying.

A violent storm swept over the entire bed.

After serving as a general for several months, Yuan Ye's physique was further strengthened.

He was already at the peak of his physical condition, and after experiencing the baptism of the battlefield, he became even more valiant.

But if this ferocity is used in unspeakable situations, it will only make people beg for mercy.

Yuan Ye seemed to have gone deaf and mute, unable to hear anything.

The sudden rain has just stopped.

Jiang Tian's hand, feeling weak, rested on his body. She seemed not to understand what the man had been thinking, and couldn't help but utter those two words again: "Antidote..."

The next moment, the downpour returned.

By the third time, Danko was too weak to even lift her head.

"Yuan Ye, stop fooling around—"

A weak and listless voice.

Yuan Ye suddenly looked up at her: "What did you call me?"

"I don't have much time left. From now on, you and I will just be an ordinary couple in this world. I don't want to call you General, nor do I want to call you Crown Prince. I only want to call you by your name."

Jiang Tian stared at him intently and called out again, "Yuan Ye."

Yuan Ye felt the fire in her heart reignite.

Aside from his father, only she dared to call him that!

Then, Jiang Tian was hugged again...

As Jiang Tian was drifting off to sleep, she heard Yuan Ye's voice in her ear: "Don't call me that in front of outsiders."
