"We have promised each other that no matter when and where, protecting ourselves is always the top priority, because we both know that if one gets hurt, it's the other's heart that will ache, isn't it?" Zhong Lingling said.
Xiang Yimo nodded firmly. "It's good that you remember it too!"
"Lingling, after we leave the Imperial Palace, are you really willing to live with me in a place where no one knows us? Maybe, a place so remote that we might not even see another soul, backed by mountains and facing the sea!" Xiang Yimo caressed Zhong Lingling's hair.
