Alas, I lost to her.
"What else can I do? Just read some books, practice calligraphy, and help the Queen Mother with those memorials. That's all." Helan Ruizhe raised his eyebrows.
"Is that all?" Jin Suting asked, her tone a little surprised.
"That's all." Helan Ruizhe affirmed her, wondering if she was imagining something again, or if she had listened to someone's words.
"But didn't you say you were going to the northwest?" Jin Suting asked, "I heard the troops heading to the northwest have already set off. Why aren't you going?"
He thought it was something else, but it turned out to be this.
"Because I want to stay and marry you." Helan Ruizhe smiled helplessly, looking at her with doting eyes.
Jin Suting felt embarrassed, her face flushed, and she said, "Oh, I see."

Jin Suting walked over obediently, and Helan Ruizhe gently pulled her slender waist into his arms and sat her down.
"Don't listen to what others say," Helan Ruizhe said gently, "and don't let your imagination run wild.

He didn't dare to ignore Jin Suting's safety, let alone leave her to someone else's care.
Because he trusts no one except himself.
"You should stay in the East Palace these days and don't go out. Okay?" Helan Ruizhe looked at her with heartache. He really didn't want her to have any more accidents.
"Okay." Although Jin Suting was a restless person, she also knew the importance of this matter. "I will stay in the East Palace and won't go anywhere."
"Be good." Helan Ruizhe gently kissed her forehead.
