She was naturally overjoyed.
Even ecstatic.
She never thought that she could become the Princess of the Chu Kingdom.
She had always assumed she would be a concubine when she first entered the Duke Mansion; she had made up her mind that even if her family opposed it, she would press on to the death. Yet, unexpectedly, such luck came so suddenly, she actually became the Princess—a glory so exalted, everyone at Duke Mansion had to show her the utmost respect.
Thinking about the future glory and wealth, thinking about marrying the man she loved, her face could hardly hide the joy.
However, when she saw Xiao Jinsen's cold eyes, her heart chilled.
She could clearly feel that Xiao Jinsen was unwilling to marry her.
Marrying her was nothing but a forced compromise.
There was not a trace of joy in her heart.
Xie Ruiyao restrained her smile.
At this moment, she also reminded herself not to be blinded by excitement.
