His Peasant Wife : Yao Ling - Chapter 492

When Li Guang went back to the place that Yao Ying had prepared for his family, he quickly called Ying Ying over to have a serious talk. He wanted to know what exactly was going on with Yao Ling! He didn't hear his daughter mention this woman when they were on the way here. Ying Ying just mentioned that Yao Ling was her master but not once she told them that Yao Ling was actually Yao Ying's wife!

At that time, he was too concerned with the fact that they had found Young Master, thus, he didn't really pay attention to those details. There were a lot of things to be handled after he calmed himself down and found that 'that man' was indeed his real young master.

Yao Ying was supposed to be her sister's fiancee and Ying Ying should have known that… right? It made him feel suspicious of Ying Ying's purpose. He deliberately didn't call for his eldest daughter, just to avoid talking about this matter first. He didn't want to make her sad, after all, she was his favorite daughter.

There was nothing much that Ying Ying could tell about the couple's relationship because she had just met them right before she saved Li Guang — basically, she knew nothing about them. Besides, she didn't think that it was important at that time. Li Guang couldn't blame her because Ying Ying said that he didn't know anything about her big sister's engagement with Yao Ying. If he recalled correctly, he really didn't talk much about that after he took Ying Ying away from the second branch.

Ying Ying felt that her father was asking for too much at this moment.

She thought inwardly that in their current condition, they weren't in a position to think about that fake engagement ah~! She more or less understood that 'fake' point from the way her father talked. They had been saved from the brink of death, thus, they shouldn't be greedy and want more.

"What should I tell your sister?" Li Guang asked with a sigh while massaging his temple.

"Does big sister really like him?" Ying Ying asked curiously.

"If she wasn't, I wouldn't be in this predicament ah~!" Li Guang answered while looking at Ying Ying like the latter was an idiot.

Ying Ying seemed to be accustomed to being treated like that so she didn't feel offended with his father's behavior — this was also the reason why she didn't really close to him. He was always biased to her elder sister but oh well… they didn't even know that they were blood-related until recently. She was also confused about why he tried to save her instead of her sister.

When she looked at Li Guang's current expression, something bad was fleeting inside her mind and it made her shudder. Was she… being calculated? However, she removed that thought away… Her father wouldn't do that.

"Sooner or later, she will find out that Young Master has been married for quite some time… We should tell her the truth…" Ying Ying wanted to add — just in case, she embarrassed herself. However, she held her tongue back. What else could they do?!

The door to the room was suddenly being opened from the outside which made Li Guang and Ying Ying jumped up in surprise. They knew that they weren't being spied so they had relaxed their vigilance. They looked at the door together.

"What are you talking about? Who…? Young Master? Married?" A woman's voice floated into the room and they could hear the distress in the woman's voice.

"Lian Er…" Li Guang somehow felt guilty after calling her name — he couldn't bear to see her heartbroken expression.

Ying Ying sighed. Her big sister was quite protective of her back then, but she could see that everything seemed to be different when they were in deep trouble like this. Her sister was only strong and powerful in the backyard back then, but she was quite spoiled in other aspects. The truth was… she was just a weak and melancholic woman. She cried easily…

Feng Lian cried and quickly asked them to tell her everything. She had loved young master for so long, how could she feel reconciled to let him go just like this? She wouldn't! Once she heard everything, she felt like her heart was being stabbed — it was so painful that it was hard for her to breathe.

"Have you seen the woman's face?" She looked at Ying Ying ferociously.

Ying Ying was surprised by her sister's ugly expression and nodded carefully. In truth, her sister was a bit more beautiful than Yao Ling, however, after seeing Yao Ling's capabilities and gracefulness, she had to admit that her sister lost to Yao Ling. She wondered whether her sister was always like this or her mind was distorted because she was being imprisoned for a long time.

"Lian er!"

Li Guang was also surprised by Feng Lian's expression. He had never once seen her like this before!

Feng Lian seemed to realize that both of them looked at them weirdly — she quickly composed her expression. "I am fine… I am sorry… I am just too surprised!" She said in a low voice while lowering her head and trying to calm herself down.

Li Guang sighed. "It's fine! I'm sorry the engagement has to end like this! If you want to blame someone, you have to blame it all to fate… It's already a miracle that Young Master is able to survive."

Even if he wanted to make his daughter happy, he couldn't at the moment. He had no power and could feel that Yao Ying was feeling wary of him.

"I…" Feng Lian was hesitant but there was a trace of ruthlessness in her eyes which was gone in a second. She nodded her head and continued talking, "I understand…"

Li Guang and Ying Ying sighed in relief. It seemed like her feelings weren't as deep as that — or maybe, she understood their current position. However, they didn't know that they made a big mistake by underestimating Feng Lian's feelings…

They thought that no one paid attention to their movement, however, whatever happened in their house didn't escape from Yao Ying and Yao Ling's eyes. Yao Ying sighed in relief when he thought that the woman wouldn't pose any trouble to him and Yao Ling.

However, Yao Ling wasn't as optimistic as him. She was a woman and knew how much jealousy could make a woman turn into a lunatic. Their spy could only hear their conversation but he couldn't see their expressions, thus, she didn't fully trust his report. It was better to listen to her own instinct, as long as she was careful, it should be fine.

——

While the couple was waiting for the news from A Thousand Words, they treated Li Guang's family hot and cold. Li Guang knew this but he was also helpless. The only thing that he really noticed was the way Yao Ying avoided Feng Lian like the latter was a plague. His hope was slightly diminished because of this.

Even Li Guang had noticed this point, so how could Feng Lian not notice it? She had tried to find a lot of ways to appear in front of Yao Ying, but she had failed miserably. Yao Ling felt that Yao Ying was doing good for ignoring the woman, otherwise, she would kick him out of her bed just like before!

However, this move triggered Feng Lian to do something more extreme.
