As expected, Han Yu doesn't take well to Xi Zirui's words and redoubles his efforts to topple him. Even with the rope around his neck.
Xi Zirui's patience is hanging by a thread.
Once he gets back his memories Han Yu needs to make it up to him for all the trouble he has been putting him through in this world -- and in all the other worlds before, now that he thinks about it.
Just then, he hears a knock at the door.
"Announcing her Royal Highness, Princess Bai Mi," a maid's voice says from outside Xi Zirui's door.
Han Yu stops fighting. Xi Zirui glares down at him. "You're going to stay quiet, unless you want a quick one-way trip to the executioner's block!"
He doesn't reply and just keeps his hateful gaze fixed on Xi Zirui.
"If you attack me while the princess is here, there will be no way for you to survive, I won't be able to protect you again, do you understand?"
At great cost, Han Yu nods.
