To prevent Gu Beichen from being immersed in the water again, Shen Wanwan let him lean against the shore with his back, and she sat next to him, letting his head rest on her shoulder.

She put one arm around his waist and the other around his arm.

The surroundings were very quiet, but spiritual energy poured in like a tide, making Shen Wanwan feel relaxed and comfortable, with her muscles and veins unobstructed. She felt so comfortable that she couldn't help but close her eyes to rest.

Maybe it was because she soaked in the water for too long or for some other reason, but Shen Wanwan actually fell asleep.

Gu Beichen rested his head on her shoulder, and her head rested on his, but neither of them fell into the water.

After an unknown amount of time, Gu Beichen slowly opened his eyes. There was a moment of confusion on his face, which was then replaced by inexplicable joy.

He was in Yaoyao's space, taking a bath with her?

Gu Beichen raised the corners of his lips slightly, and couldn't help but raise his hand, wanting to touch Shen Wanwan's face, but she suddenly opened her eyes, and then raised her head to look at him.

"Are you awake? How do you feel now?"

As Shen Wanwan spoke, she reached out and grabbed Gu Beichen's wrist, wanting to take his pulse, but Gu Beichen pulled her into his arms.

"Yaoyao, I regret it."

"what?"

"I said I regretted it. I shouldn't have left like that that day. Even if you were a fairy in the sky, as long as you didn't explicitly reject me, I shouldn't have let you go.

"After going through so much, I finally got you to agree to give it a try, but I was so stupid as to back out after hearing your true identity.

"Yaoyao, you know what? When that old monster took over my body, I truly realized that I could let go of anything in this world, except you."

Gu Beichen's voice choked slightly as he finished speaking, "Yaoyao, I know you want to go back to Jingsi Island. Take me with you, okay?"

"But you are..."

He is the God of War Prince of Nanyao Kingdom, the only legitimate son of the current emperor, and the most suitable candidate to inherit the throne. If she really takes him away, Emperor Tianchen will probably want to skin her alive.

"Yaoyao, I once told you that I must be myself first, and then the prince. I have done enough for the Nanyao Kingdom. For the rest of my life, I want to be selfish for once and live according to my heart."

Gu Beichen raised his hand and slowly stroked her cheek, "Yaoyao, you don't have to feel any psychological burden. I will arrange everything before I leave."

He had already made up his mind that if he could defeat the soul that had taken over his body, he would quickly deal with the matters at hand after he came back to life and go to Jingsi Island with her.

"Beichen, have you thought it through? Are you sure you want to go with me?"

Shen Wanwan felt mixed emotions.

When she heard him say that he wanted to go with her, her heart leaped with joy, but this also meant that he would have to give up everything in Nan Yao Kingdom, which was not fair to him.

Gu Beichen nodded repeatedly, "Yaoyao, I'm twenty-one."

Shen Wanwan: “???”

Shen Wanwan looked at Gu Beichen in astonishment, really not understanding what he meant.

Gu Beichen suddenly lowered his head and kissed Shen Wanwan on the forehead.

"I lost my mother when I was young, and my father was too busy with state affairs to care for me. The only people who care for me are the eunuchs and palace maids. They can naturally give me the care that a prince should have, but I need a wife."

Shen Wanwan's face turned red instantly.

"Yaoyao, I love you. You can only be my wife."

Gu Beichen's gaze towards Shen Wanwan was extremely scorching. Shen Wanwan quickly looked away, not daring to meet his gaze.

"Well, we've been in the water for quite a while. If you're okay, let's go out."
