My Unrivaled Princess: I Won’t Mess With You - Chapter 95
Guangyao dreaded to think about the possibility that Luo Qianqian didn’t trust him, he continued begging, “I won’t insist on following you along, I will stay wherever you ask me to stay, as long as you don’t hate me. I will stay with Doctor Lin and listen to him.”
People who had suffered many mishaps in his life dreaded losing the slightest chance of finding happiness.
Guangyao was one of them, and so was Luo Qianqian.
The Luo Qianqian who lived in 21st century was an orphan, she grew up in a charity house, she had tasted all the bitterness of life since she was a little baby.
Therefore, Luo Qianqian cherished people and opportunities more.
Guangyao was born in a notable family of great clan, he was doted by his parents and his clansmen, however, poor Guangyao lost his parents at a very young age, and with that he had lost his childhood and all the happiness in life.
Probably Guangyao had suffered more than Luo Qianqian, just like that saying went, ‘Darkness will make people more appreciative of sight, silence will make people more like sound.’
Luo Qianqian related to Guangyao so much, she looked at Lin Zimo and shook her head, signaling him to not ask Guangyao any more question.
“Guangyao, don’t be silly, I won’t abandon you or hate you now that I’ve saved you and asked Doctor Lin to treat you. But you need to listen to what Doctor Lin says and be honest with us, we don’t like people who speaks contrary to his thought, you know what I mean?”
Guangyao nodded, he caught hold of Luo Qianqian’s sleeve and asked, “Sister, is it true you won’t abandon me?”
“Of course it’s true, I’m already your sister, and I like you too much to abandon you!” Luo Qianqian nodded and stroked Guangyao’s hair.
Guangyao’s face lit up as a response, “Great, I will do what sister tells me to do, you ask me to stay with Doctor Lin, I will stay with Doctor Lin and listen to what he tells to do.”
Guangyao felt like he had found a reason to live now, he was like a walking corpse before he met Luo Qianqian for there was nothing he concerned about.
But now things were different, he was saved by Luo Qianqian and he wanted to return the favor even thought at the moment he couldn’t even protect himself.
Luo Qianqian pulled Lin Zimo aside and asked, “Can you do me this favor and keep Guangyao safe? You know, there are so many people watching me back at home, plus Murong Yun… …”
Luo Qianqian was well aware Murong Yun wouldn’t be happy to know Guangyao relied on Luo Qianqian so much… …
Lin Zimo consented without much deliberation, “Of course, I will take care of him and treat him. I will find out more information about the poison that’s been affecting him, if this boy is trustworthy, I will do my best to find out an antidote for him, so he can have his Internal Chi back and will be able to protect himself if he decides to leave.”
Luo Qianqian was so grateful to hear that for every single word was what Luo Qianqian wanted to hear, Lin Zimo was so considerate!
“Thank you so much, Doctor Lin, I really appreciate it. It’s getting late, I gotta go back to Luo Pavilion, thank you again for taking care of Guangyao, I really like this boy.”
Lin Zimo kept his smile in place with some effort, “You like that boy?”
Luo Qianqian nodded, “Yeah, he is my little brother now, how can I not like him? Poor thing, he must has had a tough childhood, please take care of him for me. I will come visit him often, no words can express my thanks to your great kindness, see you soon.”
Luo Qianqian knew Lin Zimo would take care of Guangyao for her.
“Guangyao, if you behave yourself and listen to what Doctor Lin says, you can ask Doctor Lin to bring you to the tavern to see me. Don’t sneak out yourself, all right?” Luo Qianqian urged again and again before she actually left.
Guangyao nodded with a smile, “Don’t worry about me, sister, I will be a good boy.”
Guangyao knew Luo Qianqian had enough on her own plate and couldn’t spare time from her main work to attend to him, he was already very grateful to Luo Qianqian for saving his life and asking Doctor Lin to take care of him.
Guangyao told himself to open up to Doctor Lin and be a good boy after Luo Qianqian left, Doctor Lin was in no particular rush to find the antidote for him at the moment for he didn’t know Guangyao’s background yet.
… …
The next day in the tavern, Murong Xue asked for leave from Master Lingtian and she asked for leave for Luo Qianqian as well.
Luo Qianqian was confused but she didn’t say anything in front of Master Lingtian, she asked Murong Xue in private what was going on.
“I thought you knew about this, the empress is holding a Flowers Admiring Gathering in the Imperial Palace tomorrow, you are invited as well.” Murong Xue said with delight.
Luo Qianqian frowned on hearing it was a gathering held by the empress, plus she didn’t want to see other young ladies of noble families and put on fake smiles for them.
Murong Xue kept on begging Luo Qianqian as if she had seen through her, Luo Qianqian had to say yes just to make Murong Xue happy.
“I know you are the best, my sister-in-law!” Murong Xue jumped for joy and threw herself at Luo Qianqian.
Murong Xue wasn’t interested in meeting the empress and other young ladies either, but Imperial Noble Consort told her she had to go otherwise the empress would make a big fuss about it.
“Sister-in-law, I know it sounds all boring and dull, but still we need to dress up and outshine all the other young ladies!” Murong Xue bubbled over with enthusiasm, “Wait, let me rephrase myself, you already outshine them without any makeup!”
Luo Qianqian chuckled, “Wrong, it is you, my Xue who has outshone them!”
“Sister-in-law, you are spoiling me! Can I go back to Luo Pavilion with you today?”
“Of course, the only thing is how can you get away with it if you are caught by the emperor?”
“I’ve already asked Father, he says I can go to yours today!” Murong Xue had a well-thought-out plan.
“Plus, I miss puppy, I haven’t seen him for so long.”
Luo Qianqian smiled, “Ah~ it’s the puppy who you really have been missing, yeah? Poor me, I thought you wanted to spend time with me!”
