"Why won't the prince see me?"
Faced with Xia Yunxi's question, Ruyi felt somewhat embarrassed. Should he tell her, "I'm sorry, please go back! Our prince won't be interested in women other than the princess, so please give up on that idea!"?
If it were Jixiang, these words would have been spoken without hesitation. But Ruyi couldn't say such words, and with the princess in front of him, tears constantly swirling in her eyes as if he had bullied her, Ruyi felt helpless. He chose to remain silent.
Ruyi's silence did not bother Xia Yunxi. Ruyi was just a messenger, and he only conveyed Feng Cang's intention. However, Xia Yunxi didn't want to give up so easily. She had traveled all the way from Donglu Country just for Feng Cang. If she gave up after just one or two rejections, her love would not be very strong.
