Bai Zhishi looked at the Third Young Princess when she started to speak.

"Bai Zhishi... after all this time, you tell me, Are you interested in me?" Princess Huatian asked him, and he only looked at her with a surprised look on his face.

"I-I... I...I... Don't know, Your Highness! To have such an ambiguous relationship with a royalty- I am also a commoner I-" Bai Zhishi was in a state of panic. What is this weird way of confessing? He's being pressured to say yes but he doesn't want to be tied down.

"Yes or No, Bai Zhishi," Bai Zhishi paused and looked down to his lap. What is this situation?

He doesn't want to be married to the Third Princess since that would limit his movements to deal with the Zen Kingdom, but then he remembers the real goal of his transmigration.

To save the Villainess from her impending doom, to deviate her from the trouble that will come her way.
