Harigana asked Kangxi a question in return, and the latter nodded.

"Xuan Ye, you said there are so many things in this world that I don't know or understand. If I try to understand and be curious about everything, wouldn't I be very tired?"

Besides, what's meant to be known by others will eventually be known; if you don't want others to know, why pry into their privacy?

After speaking, Harigana squeezed Kangxi's hand, then looked into his eyes and answered him very seriously: "Xuanye, the relationship between the two of us is different from that between my mother and Abu. No matter what, they can have no secrets because they have always been each other's only one."

Upon hearing Harigana's words, Kangxi wanted to refute her, but Harigana covered his mouth and said, "Listen to me first. I am only stating the facts. I am not angry."

“Xuan Ye, from the day I accepted you, I set a rule for myself: unless you tell me on your own initiative, I will not ask about it.”

Because you have a past, a past I wasn't a part of.

Harigana released his hand from his chest and placed it on his stomach, continuing, "I have no secrets from you. You placed bodyguards around me from the very beginning, and I was practically under your surveillance."

"No! Jiaojiao, I have to refute this. Although I do ask you things occasionally, it's only occasionally. For example, after I make you angry, I want to know if you've calmed down or are still angry. I really haven't asked you anything else."

Harigana nodded; she believed him. He had no reason to lie.

Besides, even if he lied, what could she do about it? Why say something pointless?

"I believe you, and even if you ask about every little detail, I won't get angry!"
