"Your Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, does not need to look at me like this. Since you want to send another noble lady back to her home, I will also take my leave."
It was more important for Xue Lu to make the Crown Prince feel guilty for herself to gain his affection than to embarrass him and herself in front of everyone when the Crown Prince himself would put his actions into words.
"Xue Lu, it's my fault this time; I will definitely find a way to apologize to you the next time we meet again."
Even if Ming Chen felt sorry for Xue Lu, there was really no other way for him to proceed this time around.
When Ming Chen was about to step away to leave, he turned his head to focus on the two completely different figures left on the grounds—one red and one white—which complemented each other perfectly.
But the touch of red is definitely more eye-catching than the one in white.
