Chapter 121 She only wanted to be the Crown Prince's mistress?

"Nonsense! My feelings for you are unwavering, how could I lack sincerity? Is it that I am unworthy of your attention?"

Pei Siyan's expression suddenly changed.

Dou Wenyi stared at him intently, then said casually, "Your Highness, you're just acting on a whim, lusting after me. If you can so easily discard your savior, what chance do you have of me? Once you truly have me, it won't be long before you get tired of me! And how will you treat me when you have someone new?"

Pei Siyan stiffened and released his hand from her waist. He inexplicably thought of his mother, the most noble empress, who was always depressed and only showed a smile when facing him. She was just trying her best to play the role of a qualified empress, but not a qualified mother.

Even on the first and fifteenth of the lunar month, days when the emperor and empress would gather, she would invariably refuse to let the emperor into the house.

As a child, he had no idea about the emotional entanglements between them; all he knew was that his mother had always disliked Emperor Muzong.

“Pei Siyan, we’ve only known each other for a few months. You don’t understand my temperament at all, let alone what I’ve been seeking all my life.”

"Moreover, as the Crown Prince, even if you are willing to withstand the pressure for my sake, the court and the Emperor will never allow you to not take two women as concubines. According to ancestral rules, you can have two to four concubines and ladies-in-waiting, as well as countless maids, wives, and palace maids who serve you in bed."

"How much sincerity can I possibly receive? How long can this meager sincerity last? Three years, five years? Ten years, or twenty years? Even if you force me to stay in the Eastern Palace, won't we eventually grow to hate each other for various reasons?"

"If that's the case, then why does Your Highness have to make things difficult for me?"

In her previous life, she suffered greatly in love. In this life, she no longer craves a man's true love. Besides love, there are many other meaningful things in the world worth pursuing.

Her voice was very soft, but Pei Siyan was startled and annoyed by it!

Dou Wenyi has always appeared docile, but in reality, she constantly challenges his bottom line, forcing him to use force to coerce her and even threaten her with the lives of others.

She never fiercely resisted him, allowing him to do as he pleased. Even when he abducted her to offer incense in the middle of the night, she cooperated fully.

Pei Siyan knew perfectly well that she had been tolerating him all along, doing everything as he asked, as docile as a cat slave, but her sharp claws would occasionally tear him apart, leaving him bleeding profusely.

He didn't deny that he was attracted to her at first sight and was completely infatuated with her body, whether it was a slight touch, a hug, a kiss, or anything more intimate...

He longed to completely possess her heart.

Her words were undeniably bold and outrageous!

Isn't this just making it clear that he can use force to take her body, and if he can't conquer her stubborn heart, he has to exchange sincerity for sincerity?

In his mind, most respectable women are good wives and mothers, and they would show their virtue and generosity. No one would portray themselves as a jealous woman!

Not only did she say it openly, but she also took it for granted to restrain him?

This realization made him extremely irritable, embarrassed, and gave him a strong sense of defeat.

He was neither a dissolute man nor a heartless and ungrateful one. Tianning City was full of noble ladies, with all kinds of beauties, plump and slender. What kind of woman had he not seen?

He had absolutely no interest in any of these women. The only people who could stir his heart, besides her, were Lian'er. Even during the time he spent with Lian'er, he rarely felt any physical attraction.

He didn't really care much for this world, and he couldn't stand seeing Prince Rui and Consort Tan getting ahead.

However, he saw a vibrant, tenacious vitality in Dou Wenyi, which was like a poison, deeply attracting him.

Pei Siyan pondered for a long time before slowly speaking, "Are you afraid I'll fall for someone else? In this world, I'm afraid no man would dare to guarantee you anything for the next few decades. Of course, those who speak recklessly and break their promises are an exception!"

"Can't you even trust me just this once?"

Dou Wenyi smiled faintly, "I know! So, I never actually planned to get married; I only wanted to establish myself as a woman in my own household."

Even a gentleman as upright and virtuous as Shen Yanzhou could only admire her from the bottom of his heart; she never dared to hope to marry him.

Trusting men comes at a price too high!

Pei Siyan's jaw tightened, and he suddenly felt uncertain.

He couldn't imagine that the two of them would one day end up like his mother and Emperor Muzong!

His thin lips were almost pressed into a line, and he instinctively felt that she was making excuses. "Dou Wenyi, don't try to argue. I've said that I won't allow you to leave me. Do you want to be my mistress?"

Dou Wenyi's heart sank: "..."

I'm truly amazed by his unique way of thinking.

All that talk was for nothing!

Dou Wenyi's voice was low and hoarse, tinged with bitterness, "Your Highness, why are you forcing me?"

Pei Siyan could not suppress his anger and resentment; it was a cage that even he himself did not want to return to.

Let alone her?

She was like the moon in the sky, rekindling his love for the world and giving his life a different kind of color.

When fate brought them together, he was not consulted.

He absolutely forbids her from coming and going as she pleases!

Pei Siyan's fingers curled slightly as he gently wiped away her tears, stroking her face with deep affection. "Dou Wenyi, aren't you very brave? Why don't you even dare to try? Why don't you take a gamble?"

I'm betting he won't betray her!

She couldn't take her anger out on him because of other scumbags, punish him, and deprive him of the right to have her.

He believed he could win her heart!

Let's stay entangled forever; even if we hate him, it's better than ignoring him.

Regardless of the outcome, he cannot let fear of the future stop him from moving forward.

Otherwise, he really will go crazy!

Pei Siyan lowered his eyes and gazed at her intently. "Dou Wenyi, tell me what you want for me to stay with you forever? I'll agree to anything!"
