Chapter 98



He stood straight and gradually moved his hand back. Li Hua didn’t answer him because she was entangled in her conflicting thoughts toward him. However, her gaze never left his.

“Why does the Sixth Prince never answer me?” After a long pause, she asked him. “His Highness always deviates from my question. He keeps in the dark for a while before answering me,” she complained to him.

“I didn’t expect your trust from him to vanish this soon,” Lóng Wei remarked. “You said that you trust me more after I helped you. Were you genuine in your reply? Because if I tell another bitter truth to you, you will be infuriated at me. Because according to you, I do not feel emotions towards anyone so I do not understand them.”

Li Hua lowered her head. “I loved him for a very long time, Your Highness. We noble family women are told to be virtuous in every act of ours. I was not allowed to go out because of various reasons. However, Feng Lao was different. He used to tell my father to send me out with my brothers at least. The world I saw was limited to Xinshui’s main town. The love which started in my teenage years kept growing for him in all these years.”

“My anger is apparent when His Highness says anything about Feng Lao. I apologize for what I said to the Sixth Prince.” Li Hua’s humble apologies irked Lóng Wei.

He walked past her and went to the bed. “Let’s sleep,” he said and pulled the quilt up to cover himself. Li Hua looked in his direction and found his back was facing her. She realized that Feng Lao was still angry with her.

Her feet dragged her to the bed. Removing her shoes, she laid beside Lóng Wei, looking at his back. She lifted her hand to tap on his shoulder, but she pulled it back.

“His Highness is right that I must not trust anyone blindly. That’s why I have started to doubt Feng Lao too. The Sixth Prince at least saved one of my elder brothers, so I know that he will not say such a big thing baselessly.” Li Hua was unable to sleep, so she decided to talk to Lóng Wei and clear what was inside her heart.

.....

Lóng Wei turned to her and peered into her eyes. “I want you to be ready for the worst. Such a big massacre happened in Xinshui to one of the renowned noble families. Li Hua, I hate this man for a reason. Because he was unable to protect you well. Anything could have happened to you in the palace. The Crown Prince wanted to make you his concubine. That’s why I fought for you. Luckily, he took time and made advances the day I returned. I am an egocentric person, but for some reason, for you, I am selfless.”

Li Hua got shocked when she learned that Xiaoming wanted to make her his concubine. Indeed, that day she felt weird when he asked her if she would like to be his personal attendant. But she ignored it.

“I cannot blame Feng Lao fully. He didn’t want anything to happen to me. Maybe that’s why he sent me away,” Li Hua opined.

“We will get our answers in Xinshui,” Lóng Wei kept his answer crisp. “If he will be alive, then I won’t hesitate to kill him even if you hate me for the rest of our life,” Lóng Wei asserted.

Li Hua didn’t understand why he spoke that way. She was sure that he was dead. If he would be alive, then he would have come to see her. But he never came.

“Is my Senior First Brother well? Since the time His Highness told me that he’s alive, I am curious to know how he is living. It seems the Sixth Prince has made a plan. That’s why my Senior First Brother didn’t come to the capital to complain to the King about this,” Li Hua stated and knitted her brows. “Also, if my father was such a renowned nobleman, how come no one ever talked about it?” She was inquisitive to know.

“Xu Zifan is a strong warrior. I appreciate his strong will even in tough times. Indeed, I have some plans. That is why I told him not to do anything unless I found the reason. In the Palace a few people indeed know, but does it matter to us? Thousands of people die daily. One minute of mourning would have been done but no one had bothered to investigate because it didn’t matter,” Lóng Wei explained to her.

“Why is my family get slaughtered? Does His Highness think of any name?” Li Hua asked him.

“Shall we sleep? Tomorrow you have such a big day. You need to prove yourself the worthiest daughter-in-law of the Qiu Family,” Lóng Wei pronounced and gradually closed his eyes. He wrapped his hand around Li Hua and drew her close.

She gaped at him, who said, “You have an amusing way to calm me down. I had been drinking the entire night if you wouldn’t have come to see me. Thank you for making me feel that I have someone who cares for me.” He snuggled to her and soon drifted off to sleep.

Li Hua also closed her eyes. Though Lóng Wei didn’t answer her fully, he cleared a bit of her confusion. She wasn’t naive anymore as she got to see her surrounding differently. She got to know that people, who looked good, and talked good wouldn’t be your well-wisher all the time.
