Princess Junwan and Lu Chen had not bet for even two hours when she regretted agreeing to the wager with Lu Chen; she soon realized why Lu Chen dared to stake the schematics of the cannons.
Lu Chen was too powerful; she simply could not fend him off. On several occasions, she almost called him darling; once she did, it would mean she had lost.
Princess Junwan couldn't understand how there could be such a terrifying man in this world.
In a mix of anxiety and exhilaration, Princess Junwan gradually lost herself.
Fortunately, in the end, she managed to hold onto her bottom line. She did not call Lu Chen darling, nor did she say words like 'I love you.'
Another morning dawned.
Princess Junwan looked at the light outside the bedroom, her whole being lost in thought. Even as a Grandmaster, she was no match for Lu Chen without her skill.
