Chapter 280
The Crown Prince dropped to his knees and bowed towards the Emperor, his face beaming with a huge smile.
“This child would like to thank Imperial Father for bestowing this marriage! To have such a virtuous wife is really the biggest blessing in my life!”
After expressing his thanks, he did not forget to turn towards Huang Yueli.
“Li’er, I’ve been fond of you for a long time, but being the Crown Prince, I have my responsibilities, which was why I agreed to marry your sister before. Now that I have you, I promise that I’ll be devoted to you and will not marry any concubines!”
When the Crown Prince said this, it was not because he had fallen in love with Huang Yueli but for a more realistic reason.
He was not stupid. With such a talented wife of such a high calibre by his side, although they were still in South Yue, when they left for Sky Cloud City and entered a proper academy, she’ll slowly start to see the world. It wouldn’t be easy to keep her then.
What the Crown Prince was doing now was to seize the opportunity to use sweet talk to first to mend and stabilize their relationship. It was best to marry her when she was still young and ignorant, letting her be fully reliant on him, so that he did not need to be afraid that she would leave him for a more talented genius that had more prestige than him in the future.
Of course, Huang Yueli wasn’t a girl who held such sentiments. In her previous life, there were countless geniuses who were willing to kneel before her to just get her to take a look at them. Even Li Mojun was no different! He wasn’t even fit to pick up her shoes.
She clearly knew what this man was thinking about.
