The Emperor's passing came quicker than expected. Under the arrangement of the Sixth Princess, the Fourth Prince ascended the throne smoothly, and the court finally stabilized.
"Ding! Final task completed! The system is ready to send you back!" The system's voice suddenly rang out.
My heart tightened: "Wait! Can you... give me one more day?"
"Why should I give you an extra day?" The system's tone was ambiguous. "Could it be that you're reluctant to part with a certain cold-faced commander?"
"I just..." I bit my lip. "I need to make things clear with him. I can't just leave without saying goodbye."
"Tsk tsk," the system sighed. "Given how well-matched you two are, I'll grant you an extra 24 hours. But you better seize the opportunity!"
Just as I was about to respond, I suddenly heard familiar footsteps. Looking up, I saw Xiao Yuan in dark robes, smiling at me.
"What are you thinking about?" He approached and reached out to touch my hairpin. "You seem lost in thought."
Looking at his cool and handsome face, a wave of bitterness surged in my heart: "Xiao Yuan, I... I have something to tell you."
"What is it?" He raised an eyebrow, concern lacing his tone. "Is something wrong?"
I took a deep breath: "Actually, I'm not from this dynasty. I've crossed over from another timeline, and once I complete my task, I have to go back."
Xiao Yuan froze. He stared at me intently, as if trying to confirm whether this was a joke.
"What did you say?" His voice was slightly hoarse.
"I'm from hundreds of years in the future," I fought back tears. "That's why I've said strange things and acted out of line. I'm sorry for keeping this from you..."
He suddenly grasped my hand tightly: "So you're leaving?"
I nodded, tears streaming down my face: "I'm sorry..."
"No." His voice turned firm. "This official won't allow you to leave."
"But..."
"You're not allowed to go!" He pulled me into his embrace with such force that it hurt a little. "This official has finally found you, finally... felt something for once, and now you want to leave like this?"
My tears fell even harder: "I don't want to go either, but..."
"Then stay." He cupped my face in his hands, his dark eyes filled with a vulnerability I'd never seen before. "This official begs you, stay."
It was the first time I heard this proud man say the word "beg." His fingers trembled slightly, his voice choked with emotion: "This official can give up this position of commander, can give up anything, as long as you stay."
"Xiao Yuan..." I cried out his name.
"No matter where you come from," he said, lowering his head to kiss away my tears, "I only know that you are the one destined for me. Please don't go, okay?"
His kiss landed softly on my eyes, gentle as if he were handling a fragile treasure. "I promise you, I will never let you suffer again. I will protect you, cherish you, and give you the whole world..."
"Ding! The male lead's devotion level has reached new heights!" the system exclaimed, moved to tears.
But I could no longer speak. Every word from Xiao Yuan felt like a knife, piercing deeply into my heart.
"I'm sorry..." I held him tightly. "I really have to go."
Suddenly, he lowered his head and kissed me, a kiss filled with desperate madness, as if he wanted to draw my very soul away. I could feel his eyelashes were wet; this man, who never easily showed weakness, was crying.
