I looked down at my clothes, and apart from being a little messy and wrinkled, everything else was fine.

But no matter what.

Something must have happened between us last night. Thinking of this, I threw off the covers and prepared to run away.

However.

I haven't run away yet.

Ji Yun suddenly opened her eyes, sat up, and said in a accusing voice, "Princess sister, you bullied me, and you're just leaving like this?"

That kid.

Perhaps feeling a little guilty, I started to stammer, "I... what did I do to you? I was drunk last night and I don't remember anything about what happened."

"Princess sister, does forgetting mean it never happened?"

Ji Yun said in a low, melancholy voice.

Before I could say anything...

Ji Yun started talking again.

"Last night, towards the end of the night, you were even more drunk than me. I had to rest for a while before I could help you find an inn. But as soon as we came in, you wouldn't let me leave. You kept me company and talking to me, and before long, you started touching me inappropriately and even verbally abusing me..."

I:"……"

What kind of nonsense is this?!

Drinking alcohol can ruin your life!

Ji Yun bit her lip and said, "Although we didn't do *that*, we were just one step away from it..."

I:"……"

Ah, I don't remember anything!

Ji Yun blinked and continued, "Princess, if you don't like me, then I'll have no choice but to become a monk..."

Is he threatening me?

I yelled angrily, "Ji Yun, what are you saying? You're a man, not a woman! Do you have to be like this?!"

Ji Yun pouted, looking somewhat aggrieved, and said, "My parents taught me from a young age that I must not do anything inappropriate with any woman, otherwise I would be punished, forced to become a monk, until I realized my mistake..."

So, does that mean I can leave the monastic life?

I was thinking about it.

Ji Yun whispered, "When I was little, people laughed at me for having bad hair. Now that I've finally grown it out, I have to shave it..."

"Are you stupid? You didn't know and didn't say anything?!"

I rolled my eyes at him.

Ji Yun said, "I'd like to keep quiet, but I didn't go home last night. If I go back today, my parents will definitely ask me all sorts of questions. I'm not a good liar; my ears turn red as soon as I lie..."

If he were to explain himself clearly, his father would take this matter to his older brother…

It would be strange if my older brother didn't make me take responsibility then.

There's no escaping it, either way.

I thought about it for a moment and asked Ji Yun, "Ji Yun, do you like me? No, do you have someone you like?"

"have."

"you."

Ji Yun stared straight at me.

Seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, and recalling what had happened before, I glared at him and said, "What happened last night, was it you who orchestrated it, hoping to make me marry you!"

"Princess, how could you think of me like that? You ordered the drinks, not me. If I'm wrong, it's that I shouldn't have come here with you, but given the circumstances, I couldn't exactly take you home or leave you in the restaurant..."

Ji Yun looked completely innocent, as if what he said was true.

I stopped dwelling on it, because I wasn't entirely without feelings for him either. After a moment of silence, I said, "I'll go back and tell my older brother about us."

When my older brother heard about it, he scolded me, but he still agreed.

then.

My elder brother has arranged a marriage between me and Ji Yun. The wedding date will be calculated by the Imperial Astronomical Bureau. Once the date is determined, we will get married, since I am not young anymore.

I got married before I could even get a wife in twenty days.
