The light touch on the lips is warm and gentle.

Wei Hanzhang blinked without reacting, until his teeth were gently pried open, then he whimpered and tried to turn his head away.

But the hand on her chin moved to the back of her neck and gripped it with a light but irresistible force.

The girl's delicate neck tilted back, Xiao Junzhan swallowed, afraid that her neck would be sore, so he simply bent down and pushed her against the bed and kissed her.

It's true that I love her, and it's also true that I only want her.

But the little girl didn't seem to believe it, even...

It doesn't matter, he will make her believe it.

With her back against the couch and the man's body covering her, Wei Hanzhang's drunkenness was mostly dissipated by fright.

He almost stuck to her, holding the back of her neck with his hands and kissing her without allowing her to retreat. Wei Hanzhang didn't have the strength to struggle, and helplessly let him kiss her for a long time, until she was almost out of breath, and then he let her go.

Xiao Junzhan lowered his eyes and looked at the girl who was panting and had a rosy face in his arms, and said, "Are you awake now?"

Wei Hanzhang stared at him in astonishment, pursed his lips, and said, "Lecher."

Before she could speak, he reached out and touched her lips.

"Lecher?" His fingertips slowly caressed the girl's red lips that were kissed. Xiao Junzhan lowered his head and moved closer, saying word by word, "Except for Ranran, I have never treated anyone like this."

"You were the first girl I wanted to marry, you were the first girl I hugged, and you were the first girl I kissed. There was no one else before, and I promise there won't be anyone else in the future."

At this point, he paused slightly, moved closer, put his forehead against hers, and looked into her eyes. He said softly, "Ranran, what about you?"

???

What do you mean?

Wei Hanzhang was stunned by this question, and when he realized what was going on, he felt a sinking feeling in his heart.

She paused for a long time before she stretched out her hand to push the person away and said calmly, "Do you also think that I have lost my reputation?"

Xiao Junzhan's expression changed slightly, and he held her hand in his palm and said, "Who dares to use your reputation to make trouble?"

"Too many," Wei Hanzhang suddenly felt sad. She sat up again, tidied her slightly messy clothes, and said slowly: "This world is harsh on women. I am a girl whose engagement was broken off. Even the elders think that I am inferior to others..."

But she didn't expect that he thought so too.

He thought that she and Gu Yunran had kissed each other... otherwise he wouldn't have asked such a question.

"Don't talk nonsense. I never thought you were inferior to others." Xiao Junzhan tightened his hands and said, "I asked this question. It has nothing to do with having the same name. It's me..."

He didn't continue talking, but just lowered his head and kissed her hand, saying, "If you don't want to say it, then don't say it. I won't ask anymore."

He is much older than her, how can he confess his jealousy to a little girl?

She grew up with the man next to her, they were childhood sweethearts, and they had been engaged before...

She also said that when she was young and ignorant...

Xiao Junzhan's eyes dimmed, his heart felt sour and painful, so he simply pulled the person into his arms, hugged her tightly again, and lowered his head to kiss her.

Wei Hanzhang quickly covered his lips with one hand, pointed at the two small tufts of hair on his head with the other, and said with wide eyes: "I am not yet of marriageable age, still a child. Even if you are the prince, you can't be so wanton and frivolous to a child, right?"

But what she said was absolutely right. She was not yet an adult and was still a little girl. He really shouldn't let himself get so close to her.

Xiao Junzhan sighed secretly, reluctantly let go of her, and said, "It's less than half a decade until your coming-of-age day. Have you decided when to marry me?"

When will you marry him?

Wei Hanzhang was slightly startled and her heart beat faster. Even though she had made preparations these days, she was still a little nervous when the time came to nod.

"You haven't made up your mind yet?" Xiao Junzhan didn't rush her. He just lowered his head and smiled at her hesitant face, and said softly, "Don't worry. You are still young. It is normal for you to feel at a loss when talking about marriage. I can wait slowly."

Thinking about what her maid said, the little girl was in a bad mood today and drank to get drunk. She also claimed that she had "lost her reputation" and "was inferior to others" before...

Xiao Junzhan frowned slightly. What kind of gossip did he hear? His Ran Ran never left the Wei family's main gate, who could let her be wronged? How did Wei Ping manage the family?

Xiao Junzhan's eyebrows twitched. Whenever he thought about this little girl being bullied right under his nose, he couldn't suppress his anger.

"If not, let's decide on your status first?" He stretched out his hand to hold the girl's shoulder, and said in a gentle voice: "After your coming-of-age ceremony, I will issue an edict to inform the world and make you the Crown Princess, okay?"

He first marked the person with his mark, so that the girl wouldn't have to suffer injustice in a corner where he couldn't see her, and others wouldn't dare to think about her.

His gaze was gentle and restrained, as if it could make the person being stared at feel confident that he or she was loved. At least that was how Wei Hanzhang felt at the moment.

She raised her head and looked at him seriously. They stared at each other for a long time. Xiao Junzhan was the first to give in. His eyelashes trembled slightly and he lowered his eyes, saying in embarrassment: "Ranran, be good, don't look at me like that."

Seeing his almost immature appearance, Wei Hanzhang was slightly stunned, pursed his lips, and said: "I have a question I have always wanted to ask you, can you help me solve it?"

Then, without waiting for his agreement, she asked directly, "When did you fall in love with me?"

She asked seriously, and Xiao Junzhan gave a perfunctory answer without even noticing that she seemed half drunk.

He thought for a moment, a smile flashed across his gentle brows, and he said, "When I first met Ranran, you were different from others in my eyes."

The little girl who came out of the hole in the wall, with her veil lifted, stood under the spring crabapple flowers. She was more beautiful than the flowers, so bright and dazzling that all the spring colors in the garden were overshadowed by her, leaving only her in people's sight.

Maybe that's what it means to be impressed at first sight...

Xiao Junzhan looked very serious: "Before I met you, I thought the world was supposed to be so lonely, cold, and routine. It was not until I saw you that day that I realized there were such bright colors and such lively girls in the world."

It's like light entering the world of a blind person...

What he said was sincere, but Wei Hanzhang's heart skipped a beat.

Lonely, cold, routine, unchanging, doesn't this mean that the characters in the story should follow the set plot?

In the original novel, he is an emperor who lives a lonely life, and loneliness and coldness accompany him throughout his life.

And now she appears. She is an accident, an accident that was not in the original book...

She broke into his world, entered his eyes, and became the only bright color...

"What are you thinking about?" Xiao Junzhan saw that she looked dazed and asked worriedly, "But you are still drunk, where are you feeling uncomfortable?"
