After being reborn, he was doted on by his scumbag brother.

Ye Hengjing was originally planning to say goodbye to Li Yaxuan before leaving, but he didn't expect that Li Yaxuan would take the initiative to come to him.

Seeing Li Yaxuan, Ye Hengjing smiled unconsciously, "I was just about to say hello to you, but you came to me first."

Li Yaxuan was worried about being seen by others, so she didn't have time to say anything more. She just whispered, "I have something to tell you. Come with me."

Ye Hengjing looked confused, but he still listened to Li Yaxuan and followed her silently.

Li Yaxuan brought Ye Hengjing to a remote corner of the backyard. Few people came here on weekdays. In addition, it was getting dark at this moment, so even if someone passed by, they might not be able to easily spot the two of them.

Seeing that Li Yaxuan looked a little nervous, Ye Hengjing couldn't help but ask, "What's the matter? Why are you so serious? Why don't you even smile? This is not like you normally."

"I...I have something very important to ask you. Please answer me truthfully. You don't need to have any concerns. I want to hear the truth."

Ye Hengjing had never heard such serious words from Li Yaxuan before, which made him unconsciously put away his smile.

Ye Hengjing nodded seriously and said, "Although I don't know what it is, I will tell you the truth as long as you want to know. Just ask."

Seeing that Ye Hengjing was very obedient to her words, the little spark of hope in Li Yaxuan's heart brightened a little more.

Li Yaxuan took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to ask, "I...I want to know what you think of me. What do you...what do you think of me?"

Li Yaxuan struggled internally for a long time, but ultimately failed to ask the question directly.

The words came to his lips but he took a detour and in the end he could only hint at it in a tactful way.

Li Yaxuan's question surprised Ye Hengjing a little. What surprised Ye Hengjing was not why Li Yaxuan asked such a question, but that Li Yaxuan actually cared about his opinion of her. Did this mean that she also had a good impression of him?

In fact, over the past few days, Ye Hengjing's affection for Li Yaxuan has continued to grow and take root in his heart.

Li Yaxuan seemed to have a magical attraction to Ye Hengjing, which made Ye Hengjing constantly want to get closer to her and get to know her better.

The more he gets to know her, the more Ye Hengjing finds himself gradually falling into Li Yaxuan's charm, and he is falling deeper and deeper, unable to extricate himself.

In fact, Ye Hengjing couldn't help wanting to express his affection several times, but he didn't know Li Yaxuan's feelings and was worried that expressing his affection so suddenly would scare her.

Ye Hengjing now understands Li Yaxuan's experience very well. As a young girl who has not experienced much of the world, she is not that sensitive to these things and it is very likely that she has never thought about it in this regard.

But her question just now made Ye Hengjing see hope instantly. Maybe he was so lucky to find the person who loved him.

Ye Hengjing couldn't help but get a little excited when he thought of this. After trying several times, he finally calmed down.

"I... I think you are innocent, lively, kind and sincere. You are the most beautiful girl in the world. Your every smile and frown touches my heartstrings. I am deeply attracted to you. Didn't I tell you before that I stayed here to find my princess in person? I have found this person and she is standing in front of me now. In fact, I have wanted to tell you these words for a long time, but I didn't know what you were thinking and was afraid of scaring you. Until you asked this question just now, although you didn't say it directly, I understood it. You like me too, right? I... didn't misunderstand you, right?"

Ye Hengjing was afraid of missing this great opportunity, so he spoke out everything that was in his heart.

But after saying this, he became a little worried, afraid that he was just wishful thinking and had misinterpreted Li Yaxuan's words, so he finally tried to test her cautiously.

Li Yaxuan was a little bit incredulous at the moment. She didn't expect that her indirect words gave Ye Hengjing a positive signal, making him speak his mind.

Ye Hengjing's words were sincere, revealing all his feelings in front of her. Li Yaxuan was shy and a little excited at the moment.

Li Yaxuan blushed and nodded, "You...you didn't misunderstand me. I...I do like you. The reason I asked you this is to know if you feel the same way as I do."

Ye Hengjing was delighted when he heard that. He was also a little flustered and at a loss. He quickly responded, "Of course I like you. You don't need to have any doubts. I... I'm a little excited now. You actually like me too. Xuan'er, can I... can I call you that? I'm really happy now."

Li Yaxuan nodded when she heard this, but her expression dimmed a little.

Although she was very happy to confirm Ye Hengjing's feelings, it also meant that the practical problems her cousin had just mentioned had become an obstacle between them, and she had to think it over and make a choice as soon as possible.

"Of course, but Hengjing, now is not the time to be happy. Although my feelings for you are instinctive and I cannot control them, the reality is very cruel. I think the two of us know this better than anyone else. After all, we are not from the same country. If I want to be with you, I will have to leave with you. But you should be very clear about how deep my feelings for my family are. I can't choose between you now."

Li Yaxuan's words were like a bucket of cold water poured down on Ye Hengjing, soaking him from head to toe.

Ye Hengjing calmed down completely at this moment and thought carefully about what Li Yaxuan had just said.

These days, his mind was full of Li Yaxuan. He was completely immersed in every detail of his time with her and had not thought about these issues at all.

These realistic problems were not within his consideration in the past. After all, he had never thought that he could have such a relationship.

In the past, he had only come with a mission of marriage, just to marry a princess and bring her back to report.

When it comes to a marriage between two countries, there is no question of willingness or not, and Ye Hengjing naturally has never thought about it.

But now that they both truly like each other, these problems have become the mountains between them that they need to cross before they can stay with each other.

When he realized the problem facing the two of them, Ye Hengjing also revealed a somewhat complicated expression.

"Xuan'er, I have never thought about these issues before, but now they are indeed obstacles between us. You and I understand each other's situation, so this is a big problem for both of us."

Li Yaxuan nodded when she heard this, expressing her understanding.

Over the past few days, she has clearly understood all of Ye Hengjing's stories. No one knows his difficulties and helplessness better than her.
