After a long night of thinking. Thian Lan finally decided to tell Li Guan about her origins. At first she was afraid that if Li Guan found out about her origins, then the young man would run away in fear, and leave her.
But she was determined. If Li Guan really sincerely loved her. Of course he would choose to stay with her. But if Li Guan left her, then his love was one-sided.
Li Guan seemed very surprised at first, after learning of Thian Lan's origins. But the young man told Thian Lan that he really sincerely loved the girl and was ready to accept any risk.
Thian Lan felt very grateful. Because that young man, too, really loved her.
Li Guan even suggested that the two of them settle down somewhere, and live secluded from the crowd. So as not to be discovered by people sent from the palace looking for Thian Lan's whereabouts.
