Yet at this moment, she was glad he hadn't backed out. He really had come to marry her.
The unprecedented grand occasion which the palace maiden spoke of, the ten-mile bridal journey, all prepared for her.
"Will you wait for me to return?"
"..." Jing Yiren shyly nodded her head.
"What if I were to die?"
"I'll accompany you, and marry you again in the next life!"
Upon hearing such words from her, so sincere without a trace of falsehood, Qiu Mubai couldn't help but feel his eyes getting moist.
He held her tightly to his chest.
"Foolish girl! If I were to die, you should remarry!"
"..." Jing Yiren looked at him: "What if I die before you?"
Qiu Mubai's face darkened, and he quickly covered her small mouth.
"Nonsense! How could you die when you're perfectly fine here?"
"If I return and they bully you, and something does happen to you, I will smash this palace and let blood flow to seek vengeance for you!"
