"And I you" what does that mean?

I heard a conversation in a movie. It goes like this. A prince told the girl he liked, "I want to see you again."  And the girl replied, "And I you."

Does that mean I also want to see you again? Can anyone explain the meaning and the grammar behind? Thank you so much indeed!

the sentence structure is, and I (VERB) YOU, (too)

so i want to see you again.

the response, and i you, actually means, and i want to see you again, too.

 another example,

A: I love you.

B: And I, you. (and i love you, too)
