Coming clean about her mother

Yin Zhu heard Situ Xun continue speaking, "You want the world to give others the same respect and dignity that they expect from them. But that's not how the world works princess. Of course, if it is you—"

She turned her head to look at the half-naked man, before turning her head to the front as Yin Zhu could see the marks that she had left on his body last night. 

"You will do anything to make people live in equality, you want the world without any differences," said Situ Xun, a soft chuckle escaping his lips as his gaze fell on the wounds on her back. "But how will you do that when the world works on those differences itself? You might want to quibble with me about the unfairness of how the poor and weak are treated but let us be honest…without the power differences it wouldn't take long for the world to be in chaos." 

"The strong protect the weak, while the weaker ones rely on the strong to survive. That's how it has been and will always be."
