"Don't cry, Qiudi. Since you have become my woman, your troubles are my troubles. I will certainly find a way to rescue your father and brother. Once we return to Iron Stone City, I will make arrangements for us to travel to Nanming Province!"
Perhaps exhausted from finally unburdening herself of such a heavy secret, Murong Qiudi collapsed into Hua Tianxiong’s arms and drifted back into a deep sleep. Feeling her steady breathing, Hua Tianxiong realized there was nothing amiss. It seemed that his ties to the Prince of Yan were even deeper than he had imagined; it was becoming increasingly urgent that he make a trip to Nanming Province.
Half an hour passed, and Murong Qiudi woke up once more. Feeling Hua Tianxiong still holding her tightly, she leaned in to plant a kiss on him, then whispered, "Your Highness, I don't even know if my father and brother are still alive. Perhaps the Prince of Yan has already killed them. I have experienced so much these past two days that I couldn't help but feel sorrowful. Please, don't take it to heart. I am yours for the rest of my life, and I only hope you won't spurn me. Once we return, I will resign from the Continent Chamber of Commerce to focus entirely on serving you."
