Lu Wei looked at the Crown Princess and held her gaze. A group of servants walked outside the hall and saw the scene.
As most of them were aware that the Crown Princess and Emperor Lu Wei was about to be engaged, they thought that the Emperor of Qian Rong and the Crown Princess were flirting with each other by playing a round of the staring game.
"I never wanted this throne anyway. If it were not for my brother, I would never return to Qian Rong to take this position. You know very well why I went against my brother and got myself in this position," Lu Wei said. His lips tilted up into a playful smile. "In a way, you should take responsibilities of me."
Princess Lingchen stared at the man before her with aghast. What responsibilities? He made it sound like she had done something wrong against him.
The Princess's gaze turned darker as seconds passed by. "I never asked for your help. You were the one who wanted to go against your brother."
