1545 It Would Not Stop Him From Harboring Intentions For Her
Beitang You glanced at her in exasperation. “Alright. Hurry up and get in.” With that, he held her arm and carried her onto the carriage.
Yaoyao, “…”
She turned back to look at him while standing on the shaft. Her pretty brows were scrunched up. “I can get up here on my own.” With that, she went inside the horse-drawn carriage.
Beitang You raised an eyebrow when he saw the blinds close. Was that girl being on guard against him by refusing to let him enter the carriage?
Did he look like a lecher?
He rubbed his nose and smiled a little helplessly.
Nevertheless, that girl was pretty easy to satisfy.
She was not that difficult to cajole.
As long as there was good food, he would be able to distract her.
A look of adoration crossed his eyes. What a cute girl.
He smiled and got onto the horse, and he ordered everyone to start the journey.
The entourage began their journey with great vigor.
…
Far away in the imperial capital of Great Shang, Lu Liangwei and Long Yang had already received the letter Ji’er had sent out from West Water Frontier.
Lu Liangwei was shocked to find out from the letter that Yaoyao had snuck into the Yan Kingdom.
“Why would that girl go to the Yan Kingdom without any reason? She even went there without telling Ji’er and Lil Qi. She’s a girl who has never traveled anywhere far before. How could she be brave enough to go to the Yan Kingdom on her own? Doesn’t she know how dangerous the world is?”
After she was done voicing her worries, she turned to see Long Yang sitting motionlessly and grim-faced. He did not say a word and Lu Liangwei thought he must be angered by Yaoyao sneaking off into the Yan Kingdom.
Even though she was very upset as well, she was even more worried. She was afraid that the girl would bump into bad people. Even if Yaoyao had brought along different types of poison, that girl had never taken her martial arts skills practice seriously. All she learned was Light Body Skill and she had never been away from home before. Even though Ji’er mentioned in the letter that Lil Qi had written to Beitang You to request him to take care of Yaoyao, that girl was unpredictable. She could easily have dumped Youyou halfway and gone traveling on her own. She had no experience surviving in the martial world. If she encountered any thugs…
Lu Liangwei got even more worried and turned to Long Yang anxiously. “Don’t just sit there being angry. The most important thing right now is to send some men over to bring that girl home.”
Long Yang grabbed her hand and held back his anger as he said, “I’m not angry at Yaoyao. I’m mad at the cunning rascal, Beitang You. If I knew this would happen, I should have killed him back then and none of this would happen.”
Long Yang said, “On the day he returned to the Yan Kingdom, he came specifically to see me at the imperial study, asking for Yaoyao’s hand in marriage.”
Lu Liangwei was quite surprised to hear this. “Did that really happen?”
Long Yang nodded and continued saying angrily, “I rejected him sternly that day and thought he had given up the thought. I never expected he would secretly kidnap Yaoyao. That brat!” Even though Ji’er said in the letter that Yaoyao left on her own, Beitang You was at West Water Frontier at the time too. Beitang You must have kidnapped her. Long Yang would not have assumed this if Beitang You had not asked for her hand in marriage before he left, but it was now clear that Beitang You did had intentions toward Yaoyao. It would be difficult for Long Yang not to think this.
Lu Liangwei was shocked. “Youyou and Yaoyao haven’t met more than a few times. Why would he suddenly want to marry Yaoyao?”
Long Yang glanced at her pretty face and sneered. “Even if they did not meet often, it would not stop him from harboring intentions for her.”
Lu Liangwei looked at him with slight exasperation when she heard this. “Are you being too harsh about him? Not everyone is that shallow-minded.”
She knew how beautiful her daughters were, but she felt that looks were not everything and she did not believe Youyou to be a shallow person.
Long Yang felt something off with what she said.
“Are you saying that I’m shallow?”
Lu Liangwei pouted. “I never said anything like that. You’re just admitting this over nothing.”
Long Yang grunted coldly and stayed silent.
It was a long time before he suddenly said, “Weiwei, you underestimate how much a man would obsess over beautiful women.”
“What?” Lu Liangwei gave him a puzzled look. She paused a moment before her pretty eyes narrowed. “Are you admitting that you fell for me because of my beauty?”
