"Will the Prince not go back to the palace?" Song Jia inquired after she finished the porridge.
"I will stay here… with you," Tianjie replied and gave her a pill. She took it with water and asked Tianjie to return to the palace.
He refused and sternly said, "I have decided to stay here tonight."
"The fever is down. His Highness doesn't need to worry about me anymore," she said and again requested him to go back.
"I already told Shi Rang to inform the Crown Prince that I would be with Song Jia and would return in the morning," Tianjie stated.
"What?" Song Jia was stunned for a second. "Why did the Prince do it? What will the Crown Prince think of us?" She murmured.
"That a husband taking care of his wife," Tianjie answered.
"But we aren't married yet," Song Jia said.
