One hand hooked her waist, with slender finger bones and bright rubies.

Pulled into his arms, he clasped his fingers tightly to prevent her from escaping, and spoke close to her ear: "How can you live with me if you don't enter the palace?"

"I have thought about it. When the time comes, we will go our separate ways. I will take Xiaoli to find a remote place to live. When you remember me, come and see me."

"Have you thought about it all?"

"Yeah." After thinking for a while, he added, "I made the decision."[

The fourth prince lowered his eyelashes and his voice was as soft as a feather: "Are you negotiating terms with me?"
