The queen is so good at teasing that she makes the abstinent prince tremble

His voice was low, and every word was like a heavy hammer, hitting Jiang Tangxi's heart.

Jiang Tangxi looked up and met his deep eyes, which contained emotions she could not understand.

There is guilt, expectation, and a hint of imperceptible fragility.

Her heart softened and all her defenses collapsed at this moment.

She shook her head gently: "You are very good...really very good...but I am really afraid...I can't see our future..." After saying this, Jiang Tangxi asked frankly: "Xiao Yuchen, you treat me like this recently, is it because you really like me?"

Xiao Yuchen chuckled, a playful arc appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he deliberately stretched out his voice and said, "Me? Like you? Haha, you think too highly of yourself."

There was a hint of joking in his words, but his eyes were fixed on Jiang Tangxi, never leaving her for a moment.

Hearing this, Jiang Tangxi curled up the corners of his mouth into a smile.

This man is really good at making trouble!

But it was undeniable that this look of his made her feel inexplicably cute, and she even felt a strange emotion in her heart.

She shook her head gently, trying to get rid of this inappropriate thought from her mind.

I'm not a masochist!

Jiang Tangxi thought about this place and thought about his modern home in his heart!

The Qin family who just returned!

Where is my biological father!

and so!

Love or family?

Choosing between the two is so cruel!

Although her parents treated her badly in modern times and her mother had long disappeared, she had already gotten better before she traveled through time.

My father also took me back to the Qin family.

to be frank.

During the years since I was brought back to the Qin family.

Most of the time, she was sulky and ignored her father.

In her heart, she still wanted her father to apologize to her in person.

She wants an explanation!

Why did you abandon her since she was a child!

Even if she knew the truth later! She didn't want to accept the fact!

That's why I always go against him in everything!

After a while, the room was so quiet that only the sound of each other's heartbeats could be heard.

Jiang Tangxi's silence was like an invisible wall, separating her from Xiao Yuchen.

Xiao Yuchen finally couldn't hold back any longer and asked softly, "Yiyi, don't you want to talk to me?"

Jiang Tangxi did not respond directly. Instead, she slowly lay down and curled up in the soft quilt, with only half of her face exposed, her eyes filled with a bit of anger and grievance.

She snorted and said deliberately: "What is there to talk about? Didn't you say you don't like me?"

Seeing this, Xiao Yuchen's heart softened, and he quickly sat down on the bed, leaning over to look her in the eye, his eyes full of tenderness and apology: "Okay, it's my fault, I shouldn't have teased you like that. If I say, I like you, will you believe it?"

Jiang Tangxi looked up, his eyes flashing with complex emotions.

She bit her lip lightly, as if considering how to respond.

After a while.

She whispered, "Then tell me, do you like me or do you love me?"

Xiao Yuchen was stunned, obviously not expecting her to ask this question.

He frowned slightly, as if seriously thinking about the difference between the two: "Is there any difference between liking and loving?"

Jiang Tangxi sat up straight, looked at him firmly, and said slowly: "In my world, liking someone means wanting to possess them, it's the heartbeat when you first meet them, it's the impulse to keep them by your side. Love, on the other hand, is a deeper emotion, it's restraint and accommodation, it's the willingness to give up something for the other person, it's the willingness to give your whole life to the other person."

She paused and continued, "In my time and space, if two people really love each other, they will choose to get married, which means that from now on, the man will only love this woman and only have this woman in his heart. They will go to a special place to get a marriage certificate and announce their love to the world. Friends and relatives of both families will gather together to witness and bless the newlyweds."

Speaking of this, Jiang Tangxi's eyes became soft and yearning, as if she had returned to the world she once knew.

As Xiao Yuchen listened to her description, a hint of shock and novelty flashed in his eyes, as if a door to a world he had never seen before was slowly opening in front of him.

These things are just fantasy in his world.

Only one woman?

But shouldn’t men have three wives and four concubines?

Although there were many concubines and beauties sent to his house, he didn't like any of them.

But whether he likes it or not is one thing!

Having three wives and four concubines is another matter!

He was silent for a long time, with complicated emotions surging in his heart.

He had never imagined that there would be such a world.

Love can be so pure and deep, and require so much commitment and responsibility.

Jiang Tangxi nodded, spread his hands, and a look of disappointment flashed in his eyes: "You see, this is the gap between us. Maybe you have been with me for a long time recently and have a little affection for me, but I hope that you can find your own answer between liking and loving. After you think this issue through, we can continue to talk."

After saying that, Jiang Tangxi turned around, leaned her face inside, turned her back to Xiao Yuchen, and closed her eyes.

She could feel that Xiao Yuchen was still sitting there in a stiff position, probably thinking carefully about the question she raised.

Can.....

The question she asked Xiao Yuchen just now was also a question to herself, wasn't it?

Do I have a crush on Xiao Yuchen or do I love him?

If one day you have to choose between two options, what will you choose?

Jiang Tangxi felt that he also needed to think carefully about these issues.

Just as Jiang Tangxi's thoughts were tangled like a tangled mess and she was about to fall asleep.

Xiao Yuchen's low and slightly hesitant voice came from the side.

"Yiyi, I know there are many women in my house, but they are just appendages of power. You are different, you are special! Those women... those women that the emperor stuffed into my house, there are also many women that he brought in to conceal his identity and create a deception for the dandy boys, but these women are different from you. I only love you. As for whether it will be a lifetime, do we have to try to live together for a lifetime before we can give an answer?"

There was a hint of seriousness and a subtle tenderness in Xiao Yuchen's words, trying to narrow the distance between the two of them.

Tang Xi was speechless for a moment. She asked him to think of the answer, but this man wanted to trick her into spending her whole life with him? What a joke!

Xiao Yuchen couldn't wait for Jiang Tangxi's answer, so he continued to ask, "Are you willing to spend the rest of your life with me?"

Jiang Tangxi's body stiffened, and her already tense nerves were almost broken by this sudden question.

She suddenly opened her eyes. Although her back was still facing Xiao Yuchen, the unwillingness and astonishment turned into a hint of anger, quietly creeping up to her eyebrows.

"What did you say? To spend my whole life with you? Xiao Yuchen, I asked you to think about it carefully, are you kidding me?"

She turned around suddenly, her eyes as sharp as a knife, shooting straight at Xiao Yuchen.

"Xiaoxiao, you don't want to?"
