Wanxin glanced at Miss Han beside Xiao Jinyu, and when she looked at Xiao Jinyu again, her eyes were brimming with tender affection.
"Does Prince Yu have something to discuss with this common girl?"
Xiao Jinyu finally mustered the courage to confess, "Miss Han, the Empress Dowager has instructed this prince to marry Miss Wanxin."
Miss Han replied indifferently, "And then?"
Xiao Jinyu was momentarily stunned. Why was Miss Han's reaction so calm? Shouldn't she be angry?
"This prince is being forced, and so is Wanxin. You're not angry, are you, Miss Han?"
Miss Han swept a cold glance at Wanxin, her lips curling up slightly, "Why should I be angry?"
Before confessing, Xiao Jinyu had imagined countless reactions from Miss Han upon learning the truth, from angrily storming off, to throwing objects in a fit of rage, or even slapping him across the face, berating him for not being a real man, since he had promised to marry only her.
