Lin Tingwan looked at Pei Jinan for a long time without saying anything.

Pei Jinan's mouth corners raised up unnoticeably, a smile appeared on his eyebrows, and he coaxed softly, "Who has offended our Yangyang? Tell me, and I will help you vent your anger."

Lin Tingwan rolled his eyes at him, "Who else could it be except you?"

Pei Jinan couldn't help but smile a little wider, "I made Yangyang angry, so how about not allowing me to eat for three days as punishment?"

Lin Tingwan snorted coldly, not taking his words to heart at all, "Okay, three days is not enough, so I will punish you by not allowing you to eat for five days."

Pei Jinan nodded slightly and said, "I understand. Yangyang said five days, so it will be five days."

Lin Tingwan thought Pei Jinan was joking and nodded calmly, "I heard that you will be going to the border soon."

"Why, Yangyang is worried?"

Lin Tingwan pursed his lips, turned his back, and said with an unnatural expression, "Who is worried about you? You are really shameless."

Hearing this, Pei Jinan smiled grimly, with the smile reaching his eyes. He liked Lin Tingwan's hypocritical look, which was really adorable.

"I will be leaving in a few days. The Imperial Astronomical Observatory has not yet calculated an auspicious date for you and me. It seems that I have to go to the border first and come back to marry you. It seems that my Yangyang will have to suffer for a while."

Lin Tingwan shook his head. "It's nothing to be wronged about. This matter concerns the people living on the border. If the people are all well, then there's nothing wrong with you and I getting married later."

"I didn't expect that Yangyang cares so much about the people of the world. It is really my blessing to marry Yangyang." While saying this, Pei Jinan kept looking at Lin Tingwan's profile, with only her figure in his eyes.

After a pause, he slowly said, "But I'm worried that this matter is related to the Crown Prince. As soon as the news that I wanted to marry you got out, His Majesty ordered me to go to the border. No matter how I look at it, I feel that something is wrong."

Lin Tingwan was slightly startled when she heard this. "Don't worry. I didn't want to marry the Crown Prince before, and now I don't have the intention of marrying up to a rich and powerful man."

Pei Jinan quickly shook his head and said, "Yangyang, that's not what I meant. I just..."

Pei Jinan paused and hesitated for a moment before slowly speaking, "I'm worried that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will pursue you relentlessly."

Lin Tingwan couldn't help but burst out laughing when he heard this. "Just keep your mind at ease. The Crown Prince is arrogant. Now that we are engaged, he has come once, so he won't come again."

Pei Jinan narrowed his eyes and stared at Lin Tingwan blankly. After a while, he slowly said, "I didn't realize that Yangyang knows His Royal Highness the Crown Prince so well. It's no wonder that you two have known each other for more than ten years."

Lin Tingwan felt that Pei Jinan's words were a bit strange, but she did not refute them because what Pei Jinan said made sense.

What's more, she and Pei Yanli have been married for more than ten years, so they naturally understand each other.

Lin Tingwan shook her head gently. "Don't worry. Now that I am your fiancée, I will wait for you to come back in Shangjing, no matter how many months or years it takes."

After saying this, Pei Jinan didn't know how to describe the feeling in his heart. There was a hint of warmth, as if the ice in his heart had been warmed.

Pei Jinan's voice was faintly filled with smiles. "Okay, Yangyang, don't worry. I definitely won't let you wait too long."

"I understand..." Lin Tingwan's voice became smaller and smaller, "Safety first, be careful."

Pei Jinan nodded, "I know, don't worry, Yangyang, I will definitely return you a complete Duke Gong, and I will definitely not let you become a widow."

Pei Jinan smiled faintly and comforted Lin Tingwan, fearing that she would worry.

"Ptah, pah, pah..." Lin Tingwan looked at Pei Jinan with disgust, "What's wrong with you? How can you say such nonsense?"

Pei Jinan looked at Lin Tingwan lovingly, "Okay, okay, it's my fault. I should be punished."

Pei Jinan took Lin Tingwan's hand and patted it on his face, "Let Yangyang vent her anger."

Lin Tingwan was stunned. No matter what, Pei Jinan was Prince Gong and a member of the royal family. She didn't expect Pei Jinan to go to this extent.

Lin Tingwan withdrew her hand in a daze. Pei Jinan did not use any force. She gently pulled it back and said, "Don't do this again in the future."

"Why?"

Lin Tingwan hesitated for a moment and said, "If others see this, they will at least judge me as unruly and insubordinate, which is never good."

Pei Jinan reached out and touched Lin Tingwan's head, and said softly, "This is our boudoir fun, who would say anything? Besides, there is no one else here except you and me."

Pei Jinan paused and said helplessly, "Yangyang, you and I will be one in the future. Only when husband and wife are of one mind can they achieve success."

Lin Tingwan was stunned, but his mind couldn't help but recall everything from his past life.

She thought so at first, until Yuzhu was captured by the Nanman spies instead of her. Everything Yuzhu suffered was because of her. If it weren't for her, she wouldn't have been like that.

"Husband and wife are birds of the same forest, but unfortunately...when disaster strikes, they fly away separately."

When Lin Tingwan said this, he was plunged into deep sadness.

Pei Jinan didn't know what happened to Lin Tingwan.

But deep down he felt only deep pain, wondering what had happened to make Lin Tingwan become like this.

"Yangyang, no, I will always stand in front of you to protect you. You are the person I will protect for my whole life." Pei Jinan's eyes were full of affection for her.

Lin Tingwan couldn't help but be stunned. With such a serious look, she couldn't believe that everything he said was false.

The two fingers he raised represented his oath to the heavens, "If you break this oath, I will be struck by five thunderbolts and die a miserable death."

Pei Jinan's voice was full of determination. "Yangyang, I know that whatever I say now is too bland. Time will prove everything. I will always be by your side."

Pei Jinan took out a jade pendant from his waist and said, "No matter what happens to you, you can go to Prince Gong's Mansion to seek their help. Even if they risk their lives, they will complete what you ask."

Lin Tingwan lowered his head and after a moment of silence, he finally reached out and took the jade pendant from Pei Jinan's hand.

For some reason, she always had a bad feeling in her heart this time.

Before waiting for Pei Jinan to come back, she had to ensure her own safety first.

"Thank you, Prince Gong."

"There's no need to be so polite between you and me. You can call me Eleven or Jin'an." Pei Jin'an looked at Lin Tingwan with a faint smile.

"As long as Yangyang is doing well, I'm happy." His smile reached his eyes.
