His eyes were filled with anticipation and longing as he stared at her intently.
That look in her eyes was so humble that Li Yunyan suddenly felt a little sorry for her.
Ultimately, it all stemmed from her! If she hadn't barged into his room that night, none of this would have happened.
Since she brought him into this situation, she should be responsible for his feelings.
At least when she's with him, she'll try her best to love him.
Li Yunyan's eyes flickered as she looked into his eyes, a faint smile appearing on her face.
She said softly, "Then you have to ask for my permission before you do anything in the future, or I'll get angry."
Her eyes sparkled as she looked at him, a light shining in them, no longer the coldness and indifference of before.
This was the first time she had shown him such a tender and vulnerable side, and Gu Yingzhi suddenly became so nervous that he didn't know what to do.
His heart was pounding wildly. Did this mean that Yan Yan had accepted him?
He was a little flustered, his deep eyes reddening slightly, and he asked excitedly but uncertainly, "Yanyan, do you agree?"
Li Yunyan tilted her head back, smiled at him with her eyes crinkling, and then nodded gently, "Mm."
He pulled her into his arms tightly, and in the instant when fireworks filled the sky, the usually domineering and powerful Prince Qingyang shed hot tears.
"Yanyan, I promise I'll never be a jerk again! I'll do whatever you say!"
Li Yunyan raised her hand and slowly wrapped it around his waist, leaning against his chest, her eyes gradually becoming moist.

Winter goes and spring comes.
As the weather warms up and the countryside grows lush and vibrant, it's the perfect time for a spring outing.
Gu Yingzhi kept his word and really took Li Yunyan and the children out the door.
He was accompanied by a large number of guards, as well as a large number of maids and servants, who surrounded their carriages tightly.
Although Li Yunyan stayed inside the carriage the whole time, and Gu Yingzhi wouldn't even let her lift the curtain, she was still very happy.
If he can accompany her on a spring outing this time, then next time he can accompany her shopping, and in the future, maybe he will be able to let her go out by herself.
Li Yunyan sat in the carriage, held in Gu Yingzhi's arms, watching the children excitedly playing with the kites in their hands.
She raised her head and smiled gently at Gu Yingzhi. She had to perform well today so that he would take her out more often in the future.
She thought she would be running around flying kites with the children, or at least sitting on the grass watching. But to her surprise, when they arrived at a place with green hills and clear waters, Gu Yingzhi told the servants to take the children to play, while he carried her into a beautiful forest.
Before she could even admire the scenery, he gently pinned her against a towering tree, and a deluge of kisses rained down upon her.
"Ugh!" Li Yunyan pushed against his chest forcefully. "What are you doing! There are other people here!"
Her voice was soft and shy, making Gu Yingzhi's Adam's apple bob. He had wanted to kiss her in the car earlier, but the children were there, so he had held back until now.
Gu Yingzhi gestured for her to look around, and Li Yunyan realized that in the vast forest, there were now only the two of them left.
"Where are the guards and servants?"
"Everyone, get out!"
His hot breath lingered in her ear, "I just had them leave, Yan Yan, don't worry, it's just the two of us here!"
Her lips were sealed by his again. Li Yunyan's resistance was negligible, and her movements were firmly controlled by him. Gradually, only sobs remained.
"No!" she refused.
His voice was low and deep, "Sweetie, I just want to kiss you!"
He lowered his head and kissed her, a long and persistent kiss.
Li Yunyan's head was forced to be tilted back, and her hands gripped the bark of the tree beneath her tightly.
After the kiss, Li Yunyan felt weak in the knees, so Gu Yingzhi picked her up and carried her to a misty, rocky mountain.
It turned out to be a natural hot spring!
He placed her in the warm spring water, surrounded by layers of ripples, and Li Yunyan sighed comfortably.
Gu Yingzhi brought over a cloth, his magnetic voice sweet and tender, "Yanyan, you must be tired from climbing the mountain today. Let me help you bathe and clean yourself!"
Li Yunyan lazily opened her eyes and saw him wearing a pure white undergarment, also soaking in the water. The belt of the undergarment was not tied, and when it was wet, it became semi-transparent and loosely clung to his body, revealing his extremely eye-catching muscular chest.
He's always maintained a great physique; I don't know how he does it!
Li Yunyan's face turned even redder.
Her gaze shifted downwards, trying to catch a glimpse of his strong, muscular abs through the misty spray. He drew closer and closer, and gradually she could clearly see his well-defined V-line. Suddenly, she was pulled into his burning embrace.
A smile played on Gu Yingzhi's lips as a pure white cloth was hooked around her long, slender fingers and slowly disappeared into the water.
He gently and carefully wiped her skin, his expression devoid of any allure, making Li Yunyan want to push him away, but she was afraid she was just overthinking things.
She trembled slightly, her hands unconsciously gripping his arm, her voice trailing off with a hook-like tone, "Thank you! But no need, I can do it myself!"
He chuckled softly, deliberately nuzzling his nose against her pink neck, his sexy breath escaping from his throat, "Yanyan, you've had a hard time just now, it's only right that I serve you."
Li Yunyan gritted her teeth as she felt his increasingly excessive hand, her body growing weaker and weaker. She glared angrily at his seemingly serious handsome face and bit his chin hard in anger.
Gu Yingzhi took the initiative, sealing her restless cherry lips with his own, his hands slowly tracing her smooth back before finally lifting her up.
The hot spring pool has flowing water, with wave after wave rippling and pushing the water into layers, eventually flowing away to who knows where.
Li Yunyan finally managed to go out for a trip, but she didn't see many sights and her energy was completely used up. In the end, Gu Yingzhi had to carry her onto the carriage.
The accompanying servants all lowered their heads and pretended not to see, but the three children, who often saw their father holding their mother, did not think much of it.
They had a particularly good time today, chattering and making a ruckus, and telling Li Yunyan about the funny things that happened that day.
Li Yunyan was so tired that she could barely keep her eyelids open, but she forced herself to stay awake and answered in a half-hearted manner.
Her eyes opened slightly, her face showing exhaustion, which aroused Gu Yingzhi's pity.
He made a "shh" gesture to the child, changed Li Yunyan into a more comfortable sleeping position, and gently patted her to help her fall asleep.
Li Yunyan was ultimately no match for him, and gradually drifted off to sleep with his gentle comfort.
