"B-but… I've admired Your Majesty for many years. If I still don't say it this time, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to do so next time."
After finally voicing out his inner thoughts, Zhao Zicheng instantly felt much better, but his handsome face was stained with a tinge of red. He looked at Chu Liuyue with eyes filled with hope and uneasiness as if he were waiting for her reply.
