In fact, it was not too difficult for her to accept the fact. She had been hurt to the core by love in her last life and she had been reborn for revenge, so she did not care who she would marry.

If she could survive after revenge, she wished that she would marry an ordinary man, instead of an extremely moody and dangerous person, like Prince Yi, Ao Chenyi.

"Prince Yi, I'm so flattered. I dare not expect to marry you." Seeing a trace of bloodthirsty flashing in his eyes, Ning Xueyan sighed secretly. She shifted the topic and continued, "Prince Yi, I'm very happy that I have you as my back."

She knew that she could not change Prince Yi's mind. She had thought that the Lord Protector's Manor would consider about her marriage in two or three years at least. By that point, she would be strong enough and even Ning Zu'an and Madam Dowager could not push her around at will. But now she was still too weak, and without any mental preparation, Prince Yi had already made his decision to marry her.

"Do you really want to marry me?" Ao Chenyi did not think it was necessary to ask this question, but he still asked, half smiling. The girl's fragrant and soft body in his arms warmed his cold heart a little. He loosed his hands slightly and touched her hair gently with his left hand.

"Yes, I do!" Ning Xueyan did not know what she could say except for agreeing to his request.

Ao Chenyi let Ning Xueyan go and leaned back, looking at her from the corner of his charming eyes. "Since you agreed, I'll assume you mean it. Then give me a love token!" he said with a smile, trying to hold back his excitement.

"Love token?" It was a token given between lovers. Ning Xueyan was surprised that the proud Prince Yi would have made such a request. "Is he playing tricks again?" She took out a perfume pouch from under her pillow and handed it to Ao Chenyi. "Prince Yi, please take it."

She had made the perfume pouch in the past few days when she was free. She had learned the technique from her mother in her last life, and it was a little different from the way people of the capital made them. This was the only one that she had made to kill time. She had not decided if she should put it on or not, so she had only stuffed it under her pillow.

Ao Chenyi took the perfume pouch from her hand in surprise. He observed it carefully, but did not see sewing trace. Obviously, Ning Xueyan had sewn it beautifully and carefully. Being pleased, Ao Chenyi patted Ning Xueyan on the head with an idle smile.

"Well done! You can make the underwear for me after moving to my manor."

Seeing a surprised and depressed look appearing on her fair face, Ao Chenyi became more excited. He played with the perfume pouch in one hand and propped his face with another one. "Since you are so sincere, I will marry you as my co-consort."

"What? Co-consort?"

Ning Xueyan widened her eyes and did not know what to say. She blinked, staring at him blankly.

She did not care if she would be his principal wife or not, but she thought it strange that this prince had knocked at her window and entered her room at night only to officially inform her that he would marry her as his co-consort. Besides, he had stayed in her room for such a long time!

"His Majesty will definitely choose a woman as my principal wife, and I don't want to disobey his order for the moment. After all, he is the emperor, and I'm only a prince. What's more, he is my elder brother. So I will agree with him to choose the principal wife for me. But I will choose the co-consort by myself,"

Ao Chenyi reached out, pinched Ning Xueyan's chin slightly and said, half smiling.

"Is he explaining to me?" Ning Xueyan was surprised that the arrogant, aggressive and cold-blooded prince would have explained to her. She blinked her bright, moisture eyes, looking at Ao Chenyi's incredible handsome face. There was still a sneer on his lips, but it made him look more charming and enchanting.
