Chapter 348 The Empress's Family (3)
Help me, help me, help me...
She's so beautiful and gentle, even more captivating than when she was little. What should I do? My nose is so hot, am I going to get a nosebleed? What if I do? This is so embarrassing!
[Luckily, she doesn't know that during all these years I led troops into battle, I would fall asleep with her handkerchief that she had left behind, constantly thinking of her, just like a lecherous man...]
Bai Ruofu: "..." I already know.
“Bai, Miss Bai… your sister said you asked me out… I…”
Bai Ruoying is Bai Ruofu's younger sister, so Xiao Yinan never imagined that Bai Ruoying would have the audacity to lie, especially to lie about her own sister.
Bai Ruofu took a deep breath and said, "Young Master Xiao, thank you for your kindness, but I have never asked you out, nor have I ever intended to give you anything or promise you anything through Bai Ruoying..."
Bai Ruofu clenched her fists, trying to bolster her courage, and said, "I... I'm destined to enter the palace. There's no future for us..."
“Young Master Xiao, you are still young, and... and you are quite popular with girls. You don’t need to waste your energy on me.”
She's going to the palace, but it's uncertain whether she'll be able to get out.
It's best to end this relationship before it develops further.
But at that moment, he heard Xiao Yinan's rebellious inner thoughts—
[This dog of an emperor wants to enjoy the blessings of multiple wives. Marrying Bai Ruolan, the eldest daughter of the Bai family, isn't enough; he also wants Afu? Ha… In all his years on the throne, he's been extravagant and licentious. Has he ever done anything good for the people? We should overthrow his rule.]
[Damn it, daring to steal my woman, they're practically asking for death!]
[Isn't Afu's concern that this damned emperor? I'm going back this time to plan a rebellion...]
To avoid worrying Afu, this matter must be kept from her. Oh, and I must remember that wicked girl Bai Ruoying; it would be best to just make her disappear...
Bai Ruofu never expected that Xiao Yinan would have such courage.
Dealing with the emperor is too difficult.
If he insists on taking this path, she... might be able to help him.
So Bai Ruofu stopped saying those things that had pushed him away.
As Xiao Yinan turned to leave, he mustered his courage and said, "I...I'd like to embroider a handkerchief for you. Would you like it?"
The unspoken meaning—
I changed my mind.
I want to be with you.
Do you still want me?
-
Xiao Yinan certainly wants it!
The girl he'd been waiting for all these years finally agreed. If he wanted to save face, he'd be a fool!
"Yes... Afu, I... I've also prepared many gifts for you. Later, I... I..."
Bai Ruofu shook her head and said, "There is no one in the Bai family I can trust. You'd better not send me any more gifts. I'll be waiting for you here in three days."
"This time, I am making this promise to you personally, so you can rest assured..."
"Don't worry, Afu..." He was so happy that he didn't know what to say for a moment.
Bai Ruofu gently bit her lower lip with her pearly teeth.
Now that you've decided to take this step, there's no turning back.
Why not be bolder?
What's the point of being a cautious and timid noblewoman your whole life?
They're just pawns in the family's game.
"Young Master Xiao... no, Brother Nan... then let me... indulge myself just this once..."
She mustered her courage and stood on tiptoe.
The man was really too tall.
Bai Ruofu could only kiss his Adam's apple.
She nestled in his arms, so thin she seemed as if she could be destroyed with the slightest force.
