Chu Yue was momentarily dazed.
After a moment, she looked away and tried to calm herself down.
"If your mind is not at peace, why do you insist on suppressing yourself?"
Lu Beimo suddenly leaned down and stared at her face: "Ali, you have feelings for me."
"No!" Chu Yueli was startled and immediately let go of his hand, looking up at him.
I never expected him to be so close to me.
As she looked up, her forehead accidentally brushed against his lips again.
So soft, and fragrant!
My heart beats like a drum.
Chu Yueli gasped, quickly released his hand, stood up, and took several steps back.
“Lu Beimo…”
"You only call me by my full name when you're flustered," Lu Beimo said with a slight smile. "You've seen my true face, and you're captivated by me, aren't you?"
"Isn't Prince Mo being a bit presumptuous?" He said such a thing with such a serious expression, without feeling ashamed at all!
"Too many girls have fallen for my face. You're not the first, Ali. Don't be shy. Even if you admit it, I won't laugh at you."
Lu Beimo leaned against the headboard, looking at her with a hint of a smile in his eyes.
Chu Yueli glared at him, her brows furrowing slightly: "So, many girls have confessed their feelings to you, Your Highness?"
"Hmm." He nodded, surprisingly not denying it.
For a moment, Chu Yueli didn't know whether he was serious or joking.
However, another question came to her mind: "If you weren't disfigured, why do you always wear a mask? Everyone says you were disfigured in the battle in the northern frontier, and I felt guilty about it for many years..."
"Isn't this even better? Since you feel guilty, why don't you repay me by marrying me?" Lu Beimo's smile deepened.
"But Your Highness, your face is perfectly fine. You have been deceiving the world all along."
However, Chu Yueli wasn't angry at the moment, but rather curious: "Why do people think I'm disfigured?"
"I have never spread rumors that I was disfigured. Aren't these all just people making wild guesses?"
"Then why do you always wear a mask?" If your face hadn't been disfigured, who would wear such an ugly mask for so many years?
Lu Beimo answered the question seriously: "In the past, there were many female soldiers in our army. The situation in the northern border is different from here. Most of the girls in the northern border are very fierce, and women can also join the army and go to the battlefield."
“But those female warriors often forget where they are because they are looking at my face… Ah Li, do you think I’m joking?” He snorted.
Chu Yueli really wanted to laugh, after all, anyone who could say such things was probably not mentally sound.
Either he's joking or he's too narcissistic.
But Lu Beimo remained calm, and even frowned slightly because of what he had said, as if he was not very happy.
He... he was telling the absolute truth! He was stating the facts!
Chu Yueli's heart trembled violently; such a thing was truly unheard of.
"So, in order to let them focus on their own things, you... always wore a mask?"
"It's not just to make them focus. I found that wearing a mask saved me a lot of trouble. Gradually, not so many girls secretly sent me love letters or even took the initiative to get close to me."
It was probably because the news of his disfigurement spread like wildfire, and the girls believed it.
"In this way, life became simpler, and the mask was worn continuously. The news of the disfigurement spread throughout the entire Eastern Mausoleum."
