This finally made the princess disperse her anger due to the situation clearing up. She’s mistaken the guy in front of herself and realizes the lady behind herself was in fact the very fox she saved yesterday.
“So it was you?” Puckering her lips to one side, Di Xiao Wan could understand why this lady would behave in such a fashion since she’s not of the Demon Realm. However, the pitiful image she portrayed still made her unhappy.
In contrast, she prefers her sister-in-law’s character who doesn’t always act frail like a white flower.
“Princess, I didn’t stay in the manor yesterday.” Pressing his hand onto Di Xiao Wan’s shoulder, State Teacher’s firmly makes his case so she doesn’t get the wrong idea.
“But… Just now, did my stomp hurt you?” The demon princess asks, her eyes showing regret over her own rashness.
Shaking his head: “It was my fault in causing your misunderstanding, you do what you think is right, there’s no need for an apology.”
“Why would you say that?” There’s a confused light in the girl’s eye over this.
“I did not arrange everything properly, that’s why you got me wrong. You saw her coming out of my room, that’s also my fault for not being more attentive.” Caressing the sweet dumbaclutz hair like a lover trying to console his sweetheart, “In my eyes, everything that you do is right, this includes your mischievous nature. I also like that about you. A little hurt by you only warms my heart.”
Flushing red like an apple, Di Xiao Wan promptly took a step back to keep herself from showing that beating heart. She’s almost losing herself due to the swelling emotions due to that heartfelt confession.
“State Teacher, why are you so nice to me?”
For all these years, regardless of what she did, this man would always shelter her and clean up any trouble she made along the way. If in the past she resisted his approach due to not knowing his love for herself, then right now Di Xiao Wan could say she’s no longer of the same emotion and could somewhat accept the possibility of being his wife.
Pushing forward since he could see there’s an effect to his words: “Because there is only one of you, only one Di Xiao Wan. If I’m not good to you then who else am I supposed to be good to? Before I was too stringent, causing myself to painfully love you from behind in secret. Now I don’t intend to hide my emotions anymore. Xiao Wan, when your brother the king returns, I will ask him to marry you to me, is that alright?”
Skipping a beat at the marriage proposal, the demon princess could literally sense the butterflies tingle from within: “I haven’t promised you yet.”
“Xiao Wan, you like your nephew Prince Xiachen a lot right? Children at that age are the cutest, we can also have one of our own. At that point your son can stick to you day in and day out.”
“Really?” Looking surprised in the eye, the girl swiftly got all excited in the face with hopeful light, “Okay, I also want a child like Xiachen who is obedient and good!”
Unbeknown to this sweet dumbaclutz, her personality and gene would never be able to produce a child like the steambun. Unfortunately, by the time she realizes this point and the deception by State Teacher, her own child had already been born and became a bratty troublemaker that likes to pick on her instead of helping her.
