Princess Consort An became increasingly uneasy as she saw that Shangguan Ruixi remained silent.
"Ruixi, won't you say something? Your father didn't mean what he said, right?"
Deny it, please! As long as you deny it, your mother consorts will believe you! Princess Consort An hurriedly pleaded in her heart.
"Well, it's a long story. I don't know when I started losing interest in women. I tried to approach a maid, only to find that I had no reaction at all..." Shangguan Ruixi blushed and spun a tale.
In essence, he was saying that he wasn't attracted to women, only petite males.
Shangguan Ruixi blushed firstly for speaking about his lack of reaction, and secondly for lying.
To marry a wife, he would discard all of his reputation! He, who previously detested lying, was now spouting untruths.
However, his embarrassed demeanor did seem to add credibility to his words.
