Chapter 160



“His Highness tried to buy a hanfu dress. However, something happened so I refused His Highness to buy it,” Li Hua said. She asked Qian He if Lóng Wei knew about Shui Feng Lao.

“I do not know anything about it, Your Highness,” Eunuch Qian He humbly replied.

Li Hua was highly doubtful of him. Lóng Wei used to go out. There was a huge possibility that he might have seen Shui Feng Lao. A strange thing she noticed was that none of the Shui Family members were present in the graveyard. What could be the meaning of this?

Li Hua stood up and walked out of the chamber but stopped to see Lóng Wei in front of her. He passed a smile to her and hung his arm around her shoulder.

“Were you missing me?” Lóng Wei asked as he took her inside. Eunuch Qian He bowed to see him. Lóng Wei gestured to him to leave, who stepped backward and turned near the door. He closed the door behind after stepping out.

“Where did His Highness go?” Li Hua queried as she settled on the floor chair. She picked the chopsticks and looked at the delicious rice dumplings before her.

“I had a short conversation with the Fourth Brother, Huang Xi, and Xu Zifan,” Lóng Wei replied. Li Hua hummed and started to eat. “I had a glass of wine with them. Would you like to drink wine today?” He asked.

“I will take only one glass, Your Highness,” Li Hua stated. “Today it’s good to drink realgar wine,” she reminded him.

.....

“I know,” Lóng Wei said and called Qian He in. He ordered the Eunuch to send the realgar wine for them. Qian He brought the wine for them and left the chamber. They had their dinner first and then Lóng Wei poured the wine for them.

He toasted the wine glass with Li Hua. “This is for taking a step towards me,” Lóng Wei said with a smirk on his lips. He brought the silver glass near his mouth and took a sip.

“A step towards His Highness? How?” Li Hua curiously looked at him.

“You confessed earlier about your feelings for me,” Lóng Wei replied and took another sip of the wine. Li Hua lowered her eyes and slowly brought the glass near her mouth.

“Don’t drink much if you can’t hold it. Even a sip would be enough,” Lóng Wei stated, “I don’t want you to lose senses after having such a strong wine.”

“Then, why did His Highness ask me to drink with me?” She raised her right eyebrow and took a sip. “I can hold one glass of wine,” she affirmed.

Lóng Wei called for a maidservant, who cleaned the table for them.

“I have shown my faith in His Highness. I hope that he will not hide anything from me.” Li Hua’s words perplexed Lóng Wei. He wondered in what sense she said those words. He studied her facial expressions for a while.

“What if I hide?” Lóng Wei amusingly glanced at her and leaned back on the floor mattress. His left elbow rested on the bolster while his right knee rose to the air. He swirled the wine glass in his hand and glued his eyes to her.

“I will run away,” Li Hua replied and put the glass lightly on the table.

“I will catch you,” Lóng Wei stated.

“No. I will run far away,” Li Hua argued.

“To where?” Lóng Wei asked.

“Umm... somewhere far.” Li Hua didn’t exactly know where. But if Lóng Wei would lie about Shui Feng Lao with her, then she would definitely run away from him.

“And where is that ‘somewhere far’ exactly? Would you like to elaborate on it?” Lóng Wei questioned. He gulped the remaining wine and put the glass on the table.

“If I elaborate it, then His Highness may catch me easily,” Li Hua proclaimed and again picked the glass. “I didn’t see any of the Shui Family members’ graves,” she finally said which was roaming in her head for a long time. “Are they safe?” She asked him.

“Umm... they are present in the graveyard. You failed to notice it as you were busy with your father’s, mother’s, and brother’s grave,” Lóng Wei stated.

“Then, His Highness shall take me tomorrow,” Li Hua stated.

“Sure,” Lóng Wei answered. “However, except your parents, brother, I hardly recognize anyone,” he affirmed.

Li Hua nodded her head and sipped the wine. Lóng Wei filled his glass when Li Hua asked him to pour one for her as well. Lóng Wei leaned forward and poured the wine into the glass that she had held.

“Does His Highness not really know about Feng Lao? I doubt that he doesn’t know him. Nothing is hidden from His Highness. I have a strong intuition that he knows about Feng Lao,” Li Hua stated and looked into the wine glass.

Lóng Wei realized that Li Hua turned sharper than he thought. He didn’t think that she would put so much thought into that. He had to tackle the present situation with her. Also, he was upset with the way she asked about Shui Feng Lao. He could see the concern in her eyes for another man.

It made him burn in jealousy.

“Why are you interested in other men when you are married to me?” Lóng Wei cocked his brow and gulped the wine present in the glass. He didn’t leave a single drop in it. “It makes me extremely jealous. You should be concerned for me. However, never once did I see that concern in your eyes for me,” he said with a displeased expression and rubbed his fingers.

Li Hua blinked her eyes and found that she hurt him. “I apologize to His Highness. I must be careful with my words,” Li Hua stated.

Lóng Wei clicked his tongue and kept glaring into her eyes. He picked up the wine jar to pour another glass. After he poured the glass full, he drank it in one go. His lips got wet with the wine. He wiped his lips with the pad of his fingers.

“You like me, but you are unable to move him away from your head. I am unable to understand,” he pointed his index finger towards her chest, “your heart, if it beats for me or for Feng Lao.”

Li Hua gulped and pressed her fingers together tightly. She wanted to run away from his gaze as it bore through her soul.
