Married To The Cruel Crown Prince-Chapter 654 - Wang Hao's Confession

"Fated life? Can Princess Bai explain that word to me?" Wang Hao asked her.

"There is nothing to explain," Bai Yaling replied. "I request General Wang to not convince me for another marriage," she said coldly.

"So, Princess Bai does think that I will ask her to consider it again. I want you and your child to have a happy life. You both do not deserve to live in seclusion," Wang Hao proclaimed.

"As I said to General Wang that I have accepted my life. I cannot handle any more comments about my child. It hurts," stated Bai Yaling.

"What if there will be someone who wants to marry you and wants to spend his life with you? Will you still refuse?" Wang Hao asked, peering into her eyes.

"It will make me look like a disloyal woman. Also, people will throw backlashes at the man, who will want to marry me. I cannot afford that. I don't want anyone's life to get maligned," Bai Yaling asserted.

"What if the man is ready to fight for you? Will you accept him? What if he shuts the mouth of everyone by holding your hand? Will you still think that way?" Wang Hao asked her a few questions which perplexed her.

"Why is General Wang talking this way?" She frowned and fidgeted with her fingers. Wang Hao took a deep breath and took a step closer to Bai Yaling. She immediately stepped back and lowered her eyes. Wang Hao again took a step towards him and put his hands on her shoulders.

"I want to marry Princess Bai. Will she marry me?" He asked her straightforwardly. He did not know how to express his feelings.

Bai Yaling instantly lifted her head and with her widening eyes gazed at him. "General Wang, wh-what are you saying?" She pulled herself back, but Wang Hao did not let go of her.

"I like…no, I love Princess Bai Yaling. I have feelings for her. Will she marry me?" Wang Hao got clearer with his statement by confessing to her. Bai Yaling blinked a few times, unable to grasp why Wang Hao was speaking that way.

"Why does General Wang like me?" She asked him, knitting her brows.

"I don't think I will be able to explain. These past few days, my heart ended up falling for Princess Bai," he said and slowly moved his hand down and held her both hands.

"I have told His Majesty too about this. However, he will not let me marry you unless you confirm it. I also told my father and refused to marry the Prime Minister's daughter. You don't need to worry from my family's side. They all support me. My father has no problem with it," Wang Hao started to convince Bai Yaling.

After knowing why Bai Yaling was refusing to marry, he thought to try his best to convince her.

"Why did General Wang do that? I am not the woman he should be with! I am a widow," she said worriedly as the tears formed in her eyes. She could not believe that Wang Hao broke off his marriage with the Prime Minister's daughter.

"Because I love Princess Bai. I cannot marry a woman to whom I can never return my feelings," Wang Hao replied. Bai Yaling pulled her hands back and stepped back.

"I don't have any feelings for General Wang," She stated.

"But I think she will develop those feelings slowly towards me," Wang Hao asserted and smiled. "I am good at waiting," he stated.

"I will give the name to your child. I will become his father. Also, I will be a good husband to you. I will take care of everything. I won't mistreat you ever," Wang Hao affirmed.

Bai Yaling averted her gaze from him and then turned her back towards him.

She rested her palm on her belly and said, "General Wang, I am glad that you thought so much of me. But I don't want to go forward with a second marriage."

Wang Hao came forward to face her eyes. "Think about it carefully, Princess Bai. Do not think that people will speak against me and my family. No one has the dare to say anything to me. I am ready to fight with everyone. Also, Princess Bai shall not make decisions based on people's decisions," Wang Hao opined.

He saw the tears in Bai Yaling's eyes. "I will wait for your response. I mean, don't tell me now. Just think about it carefully. I really want to spend my life with Princess Bai," Wang Hao affirmed and put his hand over Bai Yaling's head. He caressed it for a while.

Pulling it back, Wang Hao said, "I will escort the Princess to her chamber."

Bai Yaling nodded her head and started to walk while Wang Hao followed her silently. She was not able to contemplate what just happened. They soon reached near the chamber of Bai Yaling when Wang Hao held her hand, thus stopping from going ahead. Wang Hao came in front of her.

She confusedly peered into his eyes and then lowered them. Slowly he closed the distance between them and rested his other hand on the side of her neck. Their eyes met again, and before Bai Yaling could understand what was happening, Wang Hao kissed her lips. It was a chaste one and did not last even for seconds as he did not want her to feel uncomfortable.

Bai Yaling brought her fingers to her lips and heard him, "Princess Bai, whatever your decision will be, I will wait for it. If you want to take days or even months, I will wait. You are the first woman I have kissed. I never felt attracted to any woman all these years. Have your meals on time and please do not take any stress."

He bowed and quickly left her sight. Bai Yaling turned back after a few seconds and brought her hand down.. A tear rolled over her cheek and she looked towards the sky which had the illuminance of the moon.
