The man in the black robe came out of the room, his expression returning to its usual calmness. On seeing the person waiting, he asked, "Why aren't you leaving?"
"Leaving? To where?" Shao He was confused by his words.
"Why aren't you escaping?"
Shao He chuckled lightly, "On your turf, how could I escape? Besides, I would not abandon Pei Huaian to flee alone."
"You two really have a love stronger than gold. It's just that I wonder if your affection can endure forever, considering men often prove unfaithful, not to mention he might very well become an emperor in the future."
"Yes, the matters of love are indeed hard to predict, and changing hearts is common, but at least for now, we are in love with each other, seeing only each other."
Shao He didn't want to think about the future; it was still too distant. It was better to focus on the present, even if it meant savoring just a moment of tenderness.
