"Your Majesty, Xie Huaixing is certainly not as good as you." Xu Lingyi stood up straight and soft, revealing her fair and delicate neck.
"But I've been engaged to him since I was young. Everyone told me that he would be my husband in the future and I would marry him. So I've liked him since I was young, and I've liked him for more than ten years. Perhaps liking Xie Huaixing has become a habit for me, and I just can't let him go."
