Plotting Chivalry

Bao Zhun could not sleep and so was pacing about his guest room in the manor situated the middle of nowhere - he assumed it must be one of Prince Houyi's secret residences, most likely one of his maternal grandfather's secret residences that Prince Houyi was "borrowing".

At this point, Bao Zhun was finally coming to the true realization that his affection was unwanted. He had heard from the guards talking about how Prince Houyi has been "doting" on Chun Hua, they even addressed her as "her highness".

After all, to the men, it looked as if Prince Houyi had gone through all this trouble of hunting down the "fugitives" just to find her so he could protect her. Because instead of taking her back to his father as he was supposed to, he was holed up here with her here in the middle of nowhere, spending night and day at her side.
