The Emperor took a glance at Rong Chu as he was still upset at him earlier and said, "Fourth Prince, I thought you said you wanted..."
Before His Majesty could finish his sentence, Rong Chu chimed in quickly, "Father, you wanted to arrange for Miss Xijiu to sit by my side just now; you should not change your mind now. With the current status of Miss Xijiu, it is more suitable for her to sit with me."
He was afraid that Gu Xijiu would reject him and came over himself and wanted to hold her hand.
Gu Xijiu swiftly and quickly stepped backward. Hence, Rong Chu could not even touch her clothes, not even close enough to hold her hand!
Unfortunately, she was moving towards Rong Che and slightly staggered and sat directly beside Rong Che.
Rong Che held her with his arm and smiled, "Thank you Miss Gu for coming, please have a seat."
His palm was warm, and it warmed her wrist.
Gu Xiijiu retrieved her hand calmly and smiled in return, "Thank you."
