Seeing the tiny smile on the crown prince's lips, Xue Yu-Yan felt strange. "Xue, you are appalling me?" Sheng Li raised his brow with inquisitiveness.
Xue Yu-Yan immediately lowered her eyes. "I do not dare to. I said that I will end my life because it will have no meaning if I cannot be beside you. Since the age of 14, I have accepted his highness as my husband. But, his highness married someone else. I am just angry at myself for not getting a hold of you, your highness. Forgive me if I sounded rude to you," Xue Yu-Yan pronounced, keeping her gaze down.
Sheng Li kept staring at her for a while, trying to understand why Xue was behaving like that. Indeed, somewhere the crown prince was hurt too when he found out about Xue's truth whom he admired always, but he could not risk the throne by marrying Xue Yu-Yan. The crown prince had declared in front of his majesty that he would not marry any other woman and be loyal to one woman only.
