"That won't do. Even if the end result is being devoured whole, I would be the one to swallow you first."
Yu Nianzhao instinctively uttered something aggressive, unaware of its impact, but it made Xie Jiuxiao slightly uncomfortable.
He smiled warmly, "Alright, only you can devour me."
"..."
Yu Nianzhao wasn't sure why that felt off.
The atmosphere in the carriage inexplicably heated up.
But ever since she became King Yan, her heart has been filled with great love, without desire for small loves and affections.
Seeing Yu Nianzhao's bright big eyes, clear and devoid of any passion.
Xie Jiuxiao's heart sank like a stone; he hesitantly said, "Zhaozhao, the imperial order for marriage has been announced, and my royal brother's intention is to have the Grand Astronomer select a date for the wedding soon."
Yu Nianzhao casually replied, "Oh, that's good."
Seeing her indifferent attitude, a flame of anger rose within Xie Jiuxiao, "Are you sincerely willing to marry me?"
