Qi Heng stood up and rubbed his nose as he explained, “Isn’t it time for breakfast? I came here to invite you for breakfast because you were in the room for such a long time.”
Hexin looked at him suspiciously. “Is that true?”
“Absolutely!” Qi Heng nodded with a sincere expression. “Since both of you are here, hurry up and join us for breakfast.” With that, he turned away nonchalantly.
Hexin did not believe him, but there was nothing she could do about it.
However, the thought of all three of them overhearing what she and Long Yin was doing in the room made her feel a little awkward. She could not help but look at Long Yin to ask, “Did you notice the three of them while we were in the room?”
Long Yin had noticed them but their presence had not bothered him.
“Nope.” He shook his head.
Hexin frowned. “Don’t you have strong internal strength? Why couldn’t you notice any commotion coming from outside?”
“They wouldn’t have made a sound because they wanted to listen in to us. Besides, I didn’t sleep the entire night before and I feel a little tired. It’s only normal that I didn’t realize they were out there.” Long Yin replied calmly.
Hexin darted a suspicious look at him. “When has the Crown Prince developed such a lethargic body? You slept quite a while just now and you haven’t recovered?”
Long Yin hugged her around the waist and his deep, dark eyes looked deeply at her. “You’ll find out when the time comes if my body really does get lethargic so easily.”
Hexin caught his hint and she blushed. She pushed his hands away. “I haven’t agreed to marry you. Don’t be too confident about it yet.”
“Who else could you marry but me?” Long Yin raised an eyebrow.
Hexin glanced at him. “That’s where you’re wrong. If I wanted to get married, the people wanting to marry me would line up from the capital city all the way outside of the city gates. Get in line if you want to marry me.”
“Are you telling me this to force me to marry you quickly?” A small smile appeared at the corner of Long Yin’s lips.
“You’re the only Crown Prince of your country. It’s best for you not to act so thick-skinned. I’m still mad at you.” Hexin pouted and responded a little angrily.
Long Yin suddenly lowered his head when he saw this. He quickly gave her a peck on her pouting lips. “I have to be thick-skinned for your sake.”
Hexin was taken aback. She blushed slightly and pulled on the silk belt around her waist as she said, “You sound like I have aggrieved you. Did I force you into anything?”
“No, you didn’t. I’m the one who is in a hurry to marry you.” Long Yin held her hand. “Come on, let’s have breakfast. After we’re done, we’ll return to the capital city and I’ll ask your parents for your hand in marriage. After that, I’ll write a letter to my parents and get them to send someone from the Ministry of Rites to arrange for your betrothal. I have to marry you by the end of the year.”
Hexin could hardly believe her ears when she heard this. She stamped her feet and said, “I haven’t agreed to marry you yet. How could you…”
Long Yin rubbed her head and said gently, “Xinxin, it’s true that Great Shang is really far from the Yan Kingdom and I can’t stay too long, which is why I want to marry you as soon as possible. Otherwise, I’m scared that I won’t be able to do anything else and can only miss you every day. It would be fine if I was in the Yan Kingdom too. I would let you do whatever you want and take things slow between us, but the fact is, there is a great distance between us.” Hexin’s head was in a mess when she heard this.
“But I can’t bear to leave my parents and younger brother. I’m not mentally prepared…’
“I know. Marrying to such a far country requires great courage and determination for a girl. It’s only right that you’re worrying about this, but I swear on my life that I will treat you well for the rest of my life.”
“If you miss your family in the future, I’ll accompany you back to the Yan Kingdom. Besides, your parents are still young and they can come to visit you in Great Shang. There is also my mother, who treats you like her daughter. She likes you so much and if you marry me, there won’t be any problems between both of you. She would definitely treat you as her own. There are so many benefits to your marrying me, so, please stop worrying, alright? All you need to do is think about marrying and I will arrange everything else..”
