The girl lying on the bed bit her lip, unsure of what to say.

It's not that I'm conflicted, it's that I'm shy?

"Xuan Ye, come here."

She reached out and pulled back the blanket covering her, gesturing for Kangxi to lie down with her.

The man was very obedient. He put down her feet, straightened the blanket and covered himself with it, then held her in his arms.

Even so, she still didn't forget to tuck her little feet, which had finally recovered a bit, between her thighs.

She broke free as soon as the clamp was put on.

"Xuan Ye".

Just as Kangxi was about to ask what was wrong, before he could even ask, the person in his arms rolled over and pinned him down.

Her hands were pressed against his chest, and her cheeks were flushed, which made him even more confused.

"Jiaojiao, what's wrong?"

"Xuan Ye, I love you!"

Two voices rang out simultaneously.

Emperor Kangxi was stunned.

After Harigana finished speaking, he tried to run away, but before he could even turn over, Kangxi grabbed him by the waist and held him in his arms.

"Jiaojiao, say it again."

Looking at the excited man, Harigana swallowed hard and whispered, "Xuan Ye, I, I love you."

No sooner had the words left his mouth than the world spun around, and the two of them switched places.

Kangxi was indeed very excited. Harigana kept saying he liked her, but it seemed he had never said he loved her.

Even when pressed by him, she only said that she cared about him.

Only at this moment did he realize why he had been so anxious and insecure before.

It turns out, all he wanted were those few simple words.

However, he waited three whole years for those few words.
