Chapter 260: Chapter 261: Compensating with a Lifetime

Her ink-black eyes were filled with concern as she gazed into his, and the man’s heart swelled with joy.

"Don’t worry, I won’t come to any harm."

"I think you should go back to the Royal Palace to live." She reached up to support his shoulder, "It’s safer there."

Compared to here, the security measures at the Royal Palace were countless times more rigorous; he would definitely be safer there than on his estate.

"Will you come with me?"

"Of course I can’t."

"Then I won’t go."

"Huangfu Jue, can’t you be a little less stubborn, please?" Her fingers tightened on his shoulder, "Do you realize how much danger you’re in right now? You’re out in the open while the other person hides in the shadows; the situation is very unfavorable for you. Go back to the Royal Palace tomorrow, and unless it’s an emergency, don’t leave the Royal Palace. Be sure to take safety precautions when you do go out... right, you’d better wear a bulletproof vest... And the people around you, make sure they’re ones you trust yourself with; don’t rely on newcomers... Whether it’s food or drinks, even just a cup of water, you must be extra careful..."

She advised him earnestly, line by line, while Huangfu Jue simply watched her, silently listening.

Indeed, she did care about him!

"Also..." Noticing the man’s attentive gaze, Gan Yuan suddenly became aware of her slip of the tongue. She had said too much tonight, "Actually... I’m just... These are things I’ve seen in movies... Anyway... you must take good care of yourself..."

"I will."

The man spoke gravely, each of the three words laden with formality.

She smiled in satisfaction, "So, you’ll move back to the Royal Palace tomorrow?"

"No." Huangfu Jue immediately refused, "Wherever you are, that’s where I’ll be!"

She frowned, "Huangfu Jue!"

"Unless you agree to go with me."

"You know I can’t."

"No, you can." He wrapped his arms around her, drawing her close, "I’ll make our relationship public as soon as possible. Then, you can be by my side openly. Wherever I am, you’ll be there too."

"But..."

"No buts." His tone was imperious, "If I say you can, then you can."

She nestled into his embrace, for once using a pleading tone.

"Just a few more days, please?"

Little did he know, the moment he really decided to announce their relationship would be when she would have to leave him. She couldn’t depart without resolving the trouble afflicting him first.

Even if she couldn’t be by his side for a lifetime, she had to sort out his troubles before walking away especially when she knew he was in danger.

"Just a few days!" She raised her face to his, her eyes earnestly pleading, "I will prepare as quickly as I can."

The man smiled affectionately.

"Fine."

Grateful, she smiled back and reached out to gently encircle his waist, "Thank you!"

With that, she had the opportunity to help him out of his troubles and also to stay by his side for a few more days.

He smiled, holding her close, "Silly woman, why be so formal with me?"

Holding him, Gan Yuan gently pressed her face against his chest, "Back then... when I left, were you really angry with me?"

"Yes." The man didn’t deny it, "I was very angry at the time."

"I’m sorry."

"You don’t need to apologize to me." The man lifted her face in his hands, "Because from now on, you’ll spend a lifetime making it up to me."

Her heart ached suddenly, and she inhaled sharply, keeping her emotions under control. She reached up to pinch his chin.

"Then let’s start tonight!"
