Prince Jing keenly noticed the changes in Zhu Yu's eyes and the emotions conveyed by her violent movements. He sighed secretly, thinking that she didn't even want his body anymore. It seemed that he was really a failure.

He stopped taking off his robe, his eyes flashing with hurt, "A Yu, what should I do with you?"

Zhu Yu: Ah Yu? ? ? Ugh! ! ! If it weren’t for the system, I would have believed it.

Besides, you think you are acting in an idol drama, taking off clothes and showing off your body all the time, um... Speaking of which, your body is indeed good...

"Your Highness, please let me go first, and we can talk it out." The man is strong and the woman is weak, and Zhu Yu is not so tactless, so his voice is not so harsh.

"Okay, I'll let you go, but you can't run away." Prince Jing softened his voice and coaxed.

Zhu Yu nodded and complained in his heart: Even if I want to run, I can’t outrun you…

"Okay." The room fell into awkward silence again.

"Ayu, can you give me a chance?" Prince Jing was helpless and spoke again.

Zhu Yu lowered his eyes, thought for a moment, and said nothing: "Your Majesty, you don't really understand me. I am a bit lustful, and you already know this, so I won't hide it from you. However, I will never become the object of stamp collection for others."

Prince Jing asked with a puzzled look on his face: "What is stamp collecting?"

Zhu Yu tapped his head and explained, "Well... let's put it this way. Some people like to attract all kinds of women to their side, lock them up in their backyards, and use these women as capital to show off to others. These women are of all kinds, such as those with strong personalities, those who are gentle and docile, those who are lively and playful, and those who are good at singing and dancing, etc."

“And I don’t want to be one of them.”

Zhu Yu straightened up and continued, "Look at me. My father holds great power and my family is not short of money. With my conditions, there is no need for me to curry favor with men, let alone to intrigue with a group of women just to please them, and then be trapped in that small backyard for the rest of my life. Don't you think this makes sense?"

It was the first time that Prince Jing heard such a novel statement. After all, in his environment, women had always been required to follow the Three Obediences and Four Virtues, obey their fathers’ teachings at home, and follow their husbands’ lead after marriage. However, Zhu Yu’s concept of pursuing self-independence and self-improvement was different.

Prince Jing still tried to persuade her: "Your father and brother cannot accompany you for your whole life, and inanimate objects such as money and property cannot guarantee your safety in times of crisis. But I can do it!"

Zhu Yu rolled her eyes in her heart and tried to calm down her tone and said, "Your Highness, you are wrong. If I marry someone else, my father and brother will naturally not be able to continue to protect me. What's the use of having a fortune? If a man wants to kill me, he can just find a reason to achieve his goal.

"Let's not talk about other things for now. If I marry you, you are the prince. Since I am the principal wife, I will definitely have concubines to accompany me, not to mention concubines and aunts. In addition, there are concubines, maids, etc. I dare not even think about it. Just for these, I'm afraid it won't be your turn to come forward in person, and others will be eager to send women to your courtyard. Besides, you keep saying that you love me, but deep in your heart you have never let go of Liu Yinyin. Even if you don't want to hear it, I have to say that the little girl is full of bad water. If she is by my side, I will be annoyed to death. For these messy things, I don't want to marry her!"

Prince Jing looked at Zhu Yu with a heavy heart. He could clearly sense her resistance and rejection of marriage from her words. He took a deep breath and said seriously, "What if I promise to be with you forever?"

After hearing this, Zhu Yu did not show any emotion, but an expression of disbelief, as if she had heard the biggest joke in the world. She shook her head and responded with a chuckle, "Your Majesty, please don't make fun of me. You are a high and mighty prince, the most beloved prince of the current emperor, with an extremely respected status. In the future, there will definitely be many women around you.

Even if you are willing, who among the Emperor and those who want to curry favor with you can tolerate you favoring only me?

Besides, as time goes by and experiences change, a person's state of mind will also change. The oath made at this moment may not stand the test of time.

What's more, how can I, a rotten person who studies eating, drinking and having fun every day and shamelessly tells you that I am greedy for your body, be worthy of your favor? You can have other better and more choices. Why give up a vast forest for me?"

Prince Jing could understand Zhu Yu's suspicion and distrust. This world was indeed very unfair to women, especially since he was born in a royal family. How could anyone be together for a lifetime? If he wanted to do so, there would probably be pressure from all sides. As a man, it would be okay for him. In the end, all the pressure that did not dare to come towards him would fall on Zhu Yu.

I was so confused that I blurted out, "If that's the case, then why did you seduce me?" I regretted it as soon as I said it.

Zhu Yu sighed, "That's why I said I'm a bad person. I can't even control myself. Prince, let's not talk about who seduced whom. Today's incident is only known to the two of us. After we leave this door today, let's just pretend it never happened. I beg you, is this okay?"

Prince Jing stared at Zhu Yu and asked, "Are you planning to never marry again in your life?"

Zhu Yu shook his head slightly, with a hint of confusion in his tone: "Life is too long, no one can predict what the future will be like. But at least for now, I really have no intention of getting married."

Prince Jing lowered his head slightly, his eyes revealing a trace of loneliness and sadness that was difficult to conceal. He was really not very good at communicating with others. How did it become like this? He paused and said softly: "You don't want to marry me, right?"

Zhu Yu didn't know how to respond for a moment. What should she say? Prince Jing, you are really not a good man. You can't forget Bai Yueguang in your heart. Then what am I? It's like she's jealous and throwing a tantrum. Forget it.

After a moment of silence, Zhu Yu finally spoke: "Your Highness, now that things have come to this, why don't we give each other some time to calm down, maybe then we can figure everything out. What do you think?"

Prince Jing saw that he could not force it, so he had no choice but to retreat and said slowly: "Well, I will keep this jade pendant for the time being. Three months, when the time is up, I will return it to you personally."
