Cold Mother and Lovely Baby - C231
“What’s wrong? What is there to not understand? ” With regards to the matter of You Huang’s marriage, Su Yuewu also took it seriously. After all, other than being her pursuer in the past, Huang Xiaolong was also her good friend!
“She is a female servant of my palace, but I have never had a favorable impression of her before.” You Huang voiced her doubts.
“This way …” Su Yuewu stroked her chin, looking like an old scholar. She thought about it for a long time, then suddenly smiled and said, “It’s probably because she’s always been by your side, allowing you to get used to her good looks. One day, she suddenly changed and attracted your attention. ”
You Huang thought about it carefully and felt that it was indeed true. Although he had chosen Red Marks himself and had been with him for a long time, he had never noticed her appearance. If she hadn’t been so bold yesterday and had such an unyielding appearance, how would he have noticed that this little girl was so concerned about him! Even though he was injured, his stubbornness was abominable!
It was enough to do her duty, but now she had attracted his attention. This was truly bad! He was clearly dissatisfied, but his face was full of smiles. This kind of sweetness caused Su Yuewu, who was a person from the past, to involuntarily shudder. She inwardly thought to herself, don’t tell me I was that stupid back then!
“You’re right, I’m just too used to her.” That’s why I didn’t pay attention to her. “Thank you.” You Huang stood up with a smile and bid farewell to Su Yuewu. I’m going back, if she really gets caught by that wild man, then things won’t be good. ”
Su Yuewu originally wanted to use these words to provoke him, but when she heard him say it out loud, she found it funny. He quickly waved his hand and said, “Go quickly! Go to your little girl! When you get married, remember to send a wedding invitation! ”
You Huang smiled in agreement and disappeared in front of Su Yuewu in a short while.
Looking at the empty stone bench opposite her, Su Yuewu let out a sigh while holding the teacup. That’s great. There is a pair of lovers in this world. However, her love had long since withered away.
The room was so quiet that the sound of falling flowers could be heard.
Yao Ji felt as if she heard her own heartbeat, causing her to not dare to look at the man’s face.
After a long while, she heard herself say, “Ming Chen, why are you here?” He was also hiding next door, eavesdropping on their conversation.
He had clearly seen her yesterday, but Ming Chen hadn’t seen her for a long time. This caused him to stare at her greedily. It was the first time he saw her like this, standing so close to the sun. Even though he could see in the dark, he still couldn’t see very clearly.
“I’m looking for you.” There was a hint of a smile in his clear, cold eyes.
However, Yaoji didn’t pay any attention to this. Hearing this sentence, she was shocked, and even dragged a step backwards while pointing Zhu Nanshuang’s finger. Zhu Nan Shuang never said anything, she also didn’t know that Ming Cang was already dead, and that no one would ever lock her up again. However, facing the ‘prison guard’ who had been keeping watch over her, Yao Ji instinctively felt some fear. Even when he was in the Spatial Rift, he had never been harsh on himself.
“Are you going to take me back?” she asked.
Zhu Nan Shuang’s eyes darted back and forth between the two of them, and as soon as she heard Yao Ji’s words, she immediately reacted. Yao Ji was being held in the Space and Time Rift. Was this person the one who was watching over her? Instantly, her gaze shot towards Ming Chen. It was this man who had helped to imprison Big Sister Yaoji.
Ming Chen didn’t really care about Zhu Nan Shuang’s line of sight; in his eyes, there was only Yao Ji. However, she didn’t seem to want to see him, and there was still a trace of fear. He couldn’t help but frown and his tone was not as warm as before. It was so cold that it seemed like it could freeze someone.
“Why would I want to catch you?” His gaze was fixed on Yao Ji, faintly suffused with a trace of grievance. Was he such a vile person in her heart? He had been thinking like this the entire time. How infuriating!
Zhu Nan Shuang was a little afraid of the man’s eyesight, and upon seeing him ‘threatening’ Yao Ji, she immediately yelled out, “You’re not allowed to bully sister Yao Ji!”
Ming Chen didn’t think that this young girl in front of her had the ability to stop her. On the other hand, Yao Ji’s heart warmed upon hearing Zhu Nan Shuang’s words.
“You have already met Leng Fanyun, so you should naturally know that he no longer has you in his heart.” Ming Chen slowly said as he retracted his gaze.
Yao Ji wrinkled her brows and angrily said, “You’re following me?”
“Is that how you look at me?” Ming Chen was slightly angry. Naturally, I have my own ways of finding out about this. It’s just that the man you’re thinking about doesn’t really care about you as much as you think he does. ”
Yao Ji had been imprisoned within the stone prison of the spatial rift. Only Ming Chen could be seen. However, he had a cold personality and he knew that Ming Chen had come to visit him, so why would he care about Ming Chen? At this moment, she was truly surprised to hear his seemingly concerned words.
“Are you concerned about me?” she blurted out.
Ming Chen was stunned for a moment, then her cheeks blushed a little, causing the bystanders to be taken aback. He didn’t expect that this ice-like man would blush!
Ming Chen knew what she was thinking, and naturally did not care to lie, so she said, “It’s just that I don’t want you to be sad.”
Looking at his limpid eyes, Yao Ji felt a little uncomfortable. After all, she had always regarded him as a dangerous beast, but he had always cared for her. Could it be that among these things, there was some plot by Ming Cang? Involuntarily, Yao Ji’s gaze towards Ming Chen had an extra layer of scrutiny in it.
Ming Chen knew in her heart that she wouldn’t accept him so easily. However, when she looked at him with eyes full of suspicion, he felt somewhat unhappy in his heart. I came here this time because I have something to tell you. ”
Yao Ji hesitated for a second and said, “If that’s the case, then go ahead.” She was also curious as to why Ming Chen would not only come to take her back, but also why she would eavesdrop on their conversation next door.
“I love you.” At this moment, Ming Chen finally spoke out the words that had been suppressed in her heart for a long time. It was as if a huge rock had fallen to the ground. There was no need to mention how carefree it was. When he was in the stone prison, he didn’t dare to tell her because at that time, her heart was filled with Leng Fanyun’s shadow. If she could leave, he would look forward to their happiness. But then he realized that Leng Fanyun had already lost his memory and had forgotten about her. At that time, he was secretly delighted in his heart, thinking that this was his chance. However, such a despicable thought made him uneasy. He could only ruthlessly suppress his love. It was only now that he was finally free.
“What?!” How could Yao Ji have expected Ming Chen to confess to her? She was embarrassed and doubtful at the same time. How the hell did he say that?
“Perhaps the suspicion on Yao Ji’s face was too obvious that Ming Chen had no choice but to explain himself.” I only did a favor for Ming Cang, other than that I had nothing to do with him. Now that Netherworld is dead, the spatial rift will no longer be able to close on you. ”
“He’s dead …” Hearing the news of the loss of the person she had hated for so many years had caught Yao Ji by surprise even more than Ming Chen’s confession. At that time, when she saw Leng Fanyun, she wanted to ask him about it, but the two of them could not return to the past, so she should not bring up those memories anymore.
Yao Ji couldn’t help but think, if it wasn’t for Ming Cang, would she still be fine with Leng Fanyun, would she still be the treasure in his hands? But since it had already happened, there was no point in regretting it! In the end, their relationship with each other wasn’t firm. Even without Ming Cang, they were destined to separate if they encountered any other setbacks. Thinking of this, she felt relieved. The expression on his face was much more relaxed, and there was even a hint of a smile on it.
“Then I’ll have something on my mind.” Without Ming Cang, she no longer needed to be afraid.
Seeing her happy, Ming Chen was also extremely happy. She looks so pretty when she laughs …
Stupid! Zhu Nan Shuang cursed in her heart. She had originally thought that seeing Leng Fanyun’s expression that day would be enough to give her this title. She never thought that there would actually be a man even more foolish than Leng Fanyun! Big Sister Yao Ji was only smiling. He was blankly staring at her and didn’t feel embarrassed at all!
“Elder sister Yao Ji.” Zhu Nan Shuang gently pulled on Yao Ji’s sleeve and whispered, “Since Ming Cang is already dead, then Big Sister Yao Ji doesn’t need to worry anymore. Don’t worry, this man in front of me can’t do anything to sister Nai! He used to be a jailer, but now he’s just a stranger who knows his sister. ”
The word ‘stranger’ triggered Ming Chen’s sensitive nerves, causing him to immediately look at Zhu Nan Shuang with an ice-cold gaze.
Although she felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, in order to protect Big Sister Yao Ji, she would definitely not give up! Zhu Nan Shuang swore in her heart as she secretly gave Ming Chen a warning look, and her small hands firmly held onto Yao Ji’s wrist.
Zhu Nan Shuang’s words could be said to have enlightened Yao Ji. Without Ming Chen’s threat, she no longer needed to be afraid. And what did the man in front of her have to do with her, despite his indifference?
“I’m sorry that you’re wrong about love, but I don’t want to talk about it right now.”
Naturally, Ming Chen was dissatisfied with Yao Ji’s refusal. But he would not force her. That would make her sad. He was not Ming Cang, so he would not imprison her just because he needed her.
“Then I’ll wait. I’ll wait for you to open your heart.” He said very seriously.
Yao Ji looked at the man’s serious expression and was somewhat puzzled as to why he had taken a fancy to her. She wasn’t the best in terms of looks and her personality was only gentle. Could it be that she didn’t see any other women at the crack in time and space? But then again, since he knew about Leng Fanyun, perhaps he knew of a way to leave, and would probably go out often. Thinking like this, he felt that Ming Chen was becoming more and more unfathomable in regard to his liking.
Ming Chen regarded Yao Ji’s hesitation as a sign of distrust. He couldn’t help but step forward and grab her small hand, repeating, “I’ll be waiting for you, really.”
Zhu Nan Shuang suddenly felt that she was a little superfluous, because the two of them standing together seemed to be unspeakably compatible. Ming Chen’s coldness, after meeting Yao Ji, would turn into a lingering gentleness. It was truly unexpected.
Could it be that one thing can subdue another? Zhu Nan Shuang silently cursed.
Other than Leng Fanyun and Ming Cang, this was the first time Yao Ji had been so intimate with another man. Even though Ming Cang was beside them, because of Leng Fanyun, he didn’t dare to get so close to her. Of course, after he had schemed against Leng Fanyun, he had also expressed his love and admiration for him. If he was unhappy, he would lock himself up.
And now, Ming Chen was tightly gripping his own palm. His large hand was dry and warm, far from the ice-cold that he gave others.
Seeing the two of them holding hands, Yao Ji’s face couldn’t help but turn red. Her jade-like skin was extremely alluring to behold.
Ming Chen’s gaze was burning hotter and hotter, and her black eyes were astonishingly bright.
