He kept an eye on her, not because he was afraid she would hurt him, but because he was afraid she would be too upset and he was afraid to see her cry.
Thankfully, she kept smiling.
"Congratulations to the Crown Prince and Crown Princess! May you live in harmony and grow old together in happiness."
