"Yes, I decided because it's you" Chen Rui firmly said. Her expression not showing any regret or sympathy but only confidence. "Not because you helped His Majesty in the hospital. Not because I pity your past. But yes, because it's you on whom I can have my confidence".

"Dear, don't look at me like that. My meaning is itself clear enough for your comprehension. I chose you for this project because I believed that you could do it.

Though I really like you as my own, I would still not risk the culture of our country if you aren't capable of handling it. You got the offer solely because you deserved it". 

The Queen said in a resolute tone that warned to not raise a finger over her words and decisions.
