363 Chapter 350: Why Not Enjoy It

"Could it be because Miss Ruo's name is not in this list?"

"Precisely." Chu Yunzhao nodded, his face full of regret, "The reason is that Miss Luo's destiny clashes with mine. If we were to forcibly marry, I'm afraid it would harm her family, especially the elders."

"The Luo family's elders are already mostly gone, but the Empress has been in poor health since this summer. Her days spent bedridden have considerably increased compared to previous years."

"Forgive my impudence, but if I were to marry Miss Luo and something were to happen to the Empress's health, I'm afraid all the blame would fall onto Miss Luo and me."

"For Miss Luo, it means her destiny is harmful to others. For me, it means I'd be knowingly breaking the rules of loyalty and filial piety. In that scenario, I'd be considered a fool blinded by lust, and since our father values filial piety more than anything, he would certainly chastise me, and it would be a stain on my reputation."
