Want to Be the Fifth Prince's Consort?

Ji Beiyuan's eyes deepened. "Don't you enjoy playing the zither? Then play for me once more."

A jolt ran through Gu Shiyan's heart. She stared straight at Ji Beiyuan. He knew. He must have found out.

"Sorry, Third Prince, but I've lost interest now. If you wish to listen, you can find a musician." She stood up to leave. She wouldn't let anyone force her to do something she didn't want to.

Ji Beiyuan's eyes dimmed, and he raised his right hand slightly. Two guards quickly stepped forward and blocked Gu Shiyan's way. Gu Shiyan dropped her innocent act, her gaze turning cold. "What are you planning, Third Prince? I am a daughter of a subject."

Ji Beiyuan half-exposed his chest as he slowly rose, step by step approaching Gu Shiyan. He lifted her chin with one hand. "Don't want to be the Third Prince's consort? Would you prefer to be the Fifth Prince's consort?"

Gu Shiyan smiled. He indeed knew now.
