"Furthermore, whether it is a woman or a man, once they have found someone they love, they should remain faithful to that person and not be fickle or entangled with other men. Otherwise, it would be unfair to their beloved."
Princess Rongyang nodded.
"I know."
“However, the Crown Prince no longer wants Sister Jingchun, so Sister Jingchun has not wronged the Crown Prince. On the contrary, it is he who interfered with others, and it is clearly his fault.”
Luo Ziqian: ...
After realizing he couldn't win an argument with Princess Rongyang, he changed the subject:
"And what about you?"
"You keep saying you love me, so if you love me, why do you look at other men?"
Princess Rongyang was even more shocked upon hearing this.
"Am I not even allowed to look at other men anymore?"
Luo Ziqian hesitated for a moment, then shook his head.
"Of course not. You can look at them, but you can't have any other thoughts about them, otherwise I'll be sad."
Princess Rongyang blinked innocently.
"I just glanced at them, and I didn't have any particular thoughts about them. I just thought they were pretty. Don't you take a second look at pretty women?"
"I just looked at them and didn't do anything, and you're already unhappy about that?"
Luo Ziqian was speechless again and fell silent for a moment.
Princess Rongyang, however, began to take the lead and started educating Luo Ziqian.
"Brother Ziqian, you know I've always liked you."
But until now, you've never said you like me, nor have you ever said you'd marry me.
Luo Ziqian paused, his face instantly turning red.
He's just not ready yet.
But Princess Rongyang paid no attention to his expression and continued:
"As a princess, I have countless men around me, and countless others want to marry me in order to gain power and status."
"Is it because I like you that I can't even look at these people anymore?"
"This is neither fair nor right."
Princess Rongyang paused as she spoke, seemingly organizing her thoughts.
"I like you, but not to the point that I would lose myself for you."
"I can not look at other men because I like you, but I will not be required by you not to look at other men because I like you."
Do you understand?
"I must first be myself before I can like you."
"Otherwise, it wouldn't be me who likes you, but another you, a puppet who likes you according to your preferences."
"Do you think this kind of liking is meaningful?"
Will you like it?
Luo Ziqian subconsciously shook his head.
Princess Rongyang nodded, patted Luo Ziqian on the shoulder, and sighed.
"So, Brother Ziqian, neither Sister Jingchun nor I did anything wrong. We were just being ourselves."
Luo Ziqian nodded again, and only after watching Princess Rongyang get into the carriage and leave in front of him did he vaguely realize that something was wrong.
After Princess Rongyang and Luo Ziqian left, Gu Jingchun returned to his room.
She couldn't help but chuckle as she recalled how Shen Hechuan had hurriedly dodged away.
Actually, if you think about it carefully, ever since she met Shen Hechuan, it has always been Shen Hechuan who has been constantly getting closer to her.
He walked towards her step by step, while she kept backing away.
Perhaps I should be braver and take that first step; the outcome might be different.
Thinking about this, her mindset broadened considerably.
Since leaving the palace, the tightness and stuffiness in my chest has improved considerably.
Let's wait a little longer then.
Let Gu Jinxi get used to it.
She will go back then.
When that time comes, she will definitely stand by his side and stay with him, and she will never leave again.
As Gu Jingchun pondered this, he drifted off into a deep sleep.
In the palace.
After returning home, Shen Hechuan became increasingly angry.
She was especially angry after seeing those men with bare chests and backs.
Recalling Gu Jingchun's blissful and contented appearance at that time, he felt the veins on his forehead throb.
She really is a heartless woman.
He was so heartbroken by her departure that he couldn't eat or sleep, but she, on the other hand, still had the mind to look for other men.
This is absolutely outrageous!
This is outrageous!
Shen Hechuan grew angrier the more he thought about it, just then Tianji knocked on the door and came in.
"Your Highness..."
"What is it!"
Shen Hechuan shouted angrily.
Tianji immediately lowered his voice.
"Miss Gu is already resting."
"Rest, rest! I'm so angry I could die, and she can still sleep!"
Shen Hechuan was even angrier.
He could see that Tianji was still staring at him expectantly.
He immediately shouted angrily.
"From today onwards, do not tell me any more news about her."
That way, he won't get angry when he hears her indifferent attitude towards him.
Upon hearing this, Tianji nodded hurriedly and immediately went out, trembling.
Ever since Gu Jingchun left, His Highness's temper has been getting worse and worse.
That night.
Gu Jingchun was still asleep.
He was then woken up by Lanxin.
"Girl, girl, wake up."
Gu Jingchun slowly opened his eyes.
What happened?
Her voice was a little hoarse, but she still sat up immediately.
She knew Lanxin well; if it weren't for an extremely urgent matter, she certainly wouldn't have woken her up at this time.
