"They also said I was going to marry you and move to the northwest," Gu Yangjin whispered.
"Hmm?" Qiao Zhi raised an eyebrow. Was her Yangjin spurred on by a strange desire to win?
"Didn't Master say we could stay in the Central Plains? And didn't we agree that if we had time, we'd go visit other places and see what the local government and martial arts alliances were like?" Qiao Zhi reminded her.
"With me here, the Alliance Leader and mother won't have to worry about your safety. I'll protect you."
After hearing Qiao Zhi's comforting words, Gu Yangjin's mood improved slightly, but she still felt a little uneasy. "Qiao Zhi, will you marry me?"
"Of course," Qiao Zhi agreed without hesitation.
Gu Yangjin blinked. "Did you hear what I just said?"
"You and I are both women. As long as we can be together, what difference does it make whether we marry or not?" Qiao Zhi said with a smile, pinching her face with her free hand.
