He has never been a person who fears pressure. Even though he was disabled in both legs, his lifelong decision was not something that a mere emperor could determine.
The reason for marrying Baili Hongzhuang was never because of pressure from the emperor. He really wanted to marry Baili Hongzhuang.
As she listened to Di Beichen's words, Baili Hongzhuang was taken aback. Surprise and astonishment flashed in her clear eyes, but a trace of joy quietly spread in her heart.
She had never heard Di Beichen say these things before. Even when she was practicing outside earlier, Di Beichen had always been by her side. She felt a little surprised, but she didn't pay much attention to it.
It wasn't until Di Beichen thought she had been killed in the tide of demonic beasts and rushed back specifically for her that she felt that Di Beichen was different.
After that, when Di Beichen became a student of Canglan Academy, her feelings became even more apparent. And this was the first time Di Beichen had expressed his thoughts to her.
"There are many outstanding women by your side, those who are better than me in terms of status, position, or strength," Baili Hongzhuang said slowly.
Di Beichen shook his head and directly held Baili Hongzhuang's hands. "No matter how good others may be, they can't compare to you in my heart."
Baili Hongzhuang raised her phoenix-like eyes and looked into his serious and nervous starry gaze. She could only see a heart full of sincerity, without any falsehood.
"My wife, are you willing to be with me?" Di Beichen asked.
Baili Hongzhuang fell silent. In fact, they were already married, and they had come this far in their relationship. It wouldn't be a bad choice to turn pretense into reality.
However, she might still carry a deep vendetta and her parents' whereabouts were unknown. Her future was uncertain...
"Master, don't think too much. I can see that Di Beichen is determined and not someone who fears death. If you like him, why worry so much?" Little Black's eyes flashed with tenderness, different from its usual cunningness. After spending such a long time with the master, it had a certain understanding of the master's thoughts.
Di Beichen was truly an exceptional and rare good man. If the master could have a mutual understanding with him, it would be a good thing.
"Little Black is right. In my opinion, the master and Di Beichen are a perfect match. As for the future, let's take it one step at a time!" Little White exclaimed excitedly.
Between the master and Di Beichen, they had only failed to break through that thin layer of barrier. Although Di Beichen's feelings were evident in his actions, he always showed a hint of testing and had never directly expressed it.
However, since the moment the master held Di Beichen's hand and walked into the miasma forest, the situation had changed.
Di Beichen saw Baili Hongzhuang remain silent for a while and felt his heart sinking.
He could clearly see that Baili Hongzhuang had feelings for him. Could it be... that she changed her mind because of what happened afterward?
An indescribable sense of loss spread in his heart. For such a long time, every expression and smile of Baili Hongzhuang had been imprinted in his heart, becoming the most important part of it.
Just as Di Beichen was about to accept the outcome, Baili Hongzhuang's calm voice reached his ears.
"Okay."
When these words came out, Di Beichen suddenly raised his head, staring at Baili Hongzhuang in a daze. He felt like he had misheard.
