Chapter 822 Bring an Affectionate Gift in the Rain

Since she came to the Lieyun Empire, she had been out of contact with her family members in the Jin State and only gotten some news about the situation in the Jin State from Xiaoyu every once in a while.

She had rarely heard of the news of her father and brother, but only knew that the Lin Family was no longer as prosperous as before, and the troop led by the Lin Family was in shambles.

Nevertheless, Lin Mengya knew after the three of them returned to the Jin State, the Lin Family would definitely rise again.

Those who had bullied and humiliated them would definitely pay an extremely painful price for it.

Baisu was not around, but before she left, she had arranged everything properly.

Lin Mengya, who had nothing to do, could only sit in front of the desk and read.

Not noticing when the sky became completely dark and it started to rain, she stood up and stretched her sore limbs.

Standing in front of the window, she watched it raining outside, lost in thought.

She heard the sounds of raindrops over other sounds, as if the whole world had quieted down with no disturbance or noise.

She could only feel coolness and moistness.

She didn’t like rainy days very much before, but as she became preoccupied by increasing troubles, she began to enjoy peaceful rainy days, which was rare.

In the rain, the palace lanterns in the courtyard flickered with fuzzy light, blurring her vision.

At the thought that her vision was blurred, Lin Mengya rubbed her eyes hard, only to see a person approaching her in the rain.

The person walked straight up to her, still wrapped up in a dark cloak. Although he was not drenched in rain, Lin Mengya felt that her heart skipped a beat.

He walked into the corridor and reached out his hand to take off his hood.

A handsome and gentle face appeared in her sight.

“I’m here to see you,” he said casually in a soft and deep tone.

However, regardless of the moisture on his cloak, Lin Mengya, whose eyes became wet, threw herself into Long Tianyu’s arms through the window.

“Be careful,” Long Tianyu said, reaching out to catch her.

At the sight that she buried her face deep in his arms, he revealed a gentle smile.

On this rainy night, the two of them embraced each other quietly, as if no one else in the world could disturb them.

“It’s raining, isn’t it? Why are you here at this moment?” Lin Mengya asked.

She clung to Long Tianyu and refused to get out of his arms. Although her light pink gauze dress had been wetted by the moisture on his cloak, she didn’t care about it at all.

“Go and change your clothes, in case you catch a cold,” Long Tianyu said.

He gently pushed her to the back of the screen and then took off his black outer garment.

His black underclothes were still dry. Seeing that she refused to change her clothes as she was told and even stuck out her head to glance at him, he could not help but show a doting smile.

“It seems that you want me to help you change. Okay,” he said in an obviously teasing tone.

Hearing this, Lin Mengya retracted her head immediately and said, “No… no! I’ll change myself, myself!”

After her astonishment, Lin Mengya quickly changed into clean clothes.

She suddenly recalled she seemed to have experienced the same thing the first time she returned to her parents’ home after marrying him.

It had been more than a year since she married Long Tianyu. Unexpectedly, so many things had happened during this period.

“Come here and see what I brought you,” Long Tianyu said.

Seeing Lin Mengya dressed in a light yellow gauze dress, he could not help but show an amazed look in his eyes.

When she just married him, despite her exceeding beauty, she projected a girlish air.

Now her eyes were still clear, but there was always a hint of inadvertent charm in her eyes.

Besides him, all men around the world would probably be fascinated by her.

But she only belonged to him.

Long Tianyu reached out his hand to hold her cool hand, pulled her into his arms, and took her to the back of the warm brocade curtain.

Then he cautiously drew a bright red flowering branch out of his bosom. He saw it on his way here, and hid it in his bosom and brought it to her at the thought that she would like it.

“Is this… a red gauze rosa multiflora? Where did you find it? It’s gorgeous!” Lin Mengya said.

The flowering branch in Long Tianyu’s hand was about one foot long with a flower as big as a bowl whose red petals were gorgeous and elegant.

Although it had been exposed to rain, it did not lose much fragrance.

Lin Mengya put the rosa multiflora under her nose, and a subtle but elegant fragrance came into her nose.

“I saw it in a garden outside. I learned from Baiji that you had looked around and tried to find this kind of rosa multiflora, but failed. You can plant a multitude of them with a flowering branch. I chose the best one. If you don’t like it, I’ll go and find a better one for you.” Long Tianyu lifted a strand of her hair as he spoke in a doting tone.

“No, thanks. This one is the best. I’ll find a vase to put it in right away. Thank you!” Lin Mengya said.

She was overjoyed that he came here and brought her a red gauze rosa multiflora.

She was extremely moved.

“Don’t rush. You should tell me how you are going to thank me before that,” he said.

As soon as she got up, she was pulled back into his arms.

The red gauze rosa multiflora accidentally fell to the ground. Lin Mengya opened her eyes wide and stared into his black eyes without moving.

“I…” she said.

Before she could finish her words, Long Tianyu interrupted her with a kiss.

The brocade curtain was let down by a big hand, and the sounds of raindrops outside the window could be heard over their groans in the inner room.

The bright red gauze rosa multiflora was a symbol of their passion and happiness like the dragon and phoenix candles on their wedding night, because it was also known as bride rosa multiflora.

The sky had just cleared after the rain. The two of them snuggled up to each other in the room, enjoying their sweet time.

Lin Mengya, who was exhausted, nestled in Long Tianyu’s arms lazily.

Maybe absence made the heart grow fonder.

“Fortunately, Baisu is not here today, otherwise…” As she said, she beat Long Tianyu’s chest reproachfully.

In fact, she didn’t hate this kind of thing.

Nevertheless, they were in a foreign country. If it hadn’t been raining today, what they did would definitely have been discovered.

When the time came, she would be too ashamed to face anyone.

“I know she’s not here. Didn’t you send her to deliver something to Xiaoyu?” Long Tianyu said.

He, who was in a good mood after satisfying his desire, held her tightly in his arms. At this moment, he felt that he was complete again.

“Why do you know everything happening here? Did you learn it from Mr. Zhu as before?” Lin Mengya asked.

Her sending Baisu to deliver something to Xiaoyu was not a secret, but it was not supposed to be known by many people.

Now Long Tianyu mentioned it casually, which astonished her.

“No, my men saw her accidentally. My men secretly participated in Xiaoyu’s task this time. But he is unaware of this, and I’m not going to come forward,” Long Tianyu said.

He rarely hid things from Lin Mengya. Besides, she would know it sooner or later.

“I don’t know what you’re doing in secret. But as his brother-in-law, you must help him at the critical moment. Do you get it?” Lin Mengya said.

Hearing her refer to him as Xiaoyu’s brother-in-law, Long Tianyu nodded immediately.

A moment ago, he had been jealous that his wife cared about Xiaoyu all the time.

However, since she referred to him as Xiaoyu’s brother-in-law, he would certainly take care of Xiaoyu.

Moreover, Ya’er had always doted on Xiaoyu. Since he could please her by doing so, why not?

“Also, do you know how my father and brother are doing? Although I entrusted this to Qinghu, I know that he must have stayed with you over the past few months. I’m wondering how they are doing in the Nation of Lintian,” Lin Mengya said.

There was a flicker of hesitation in Long Tianyu’s eyes.

After a while, he became serious.

Looking into her clear eyes, Long Tianyu opened his thin lips and weighed his words carefully before saying. “I’ve intended to tell you one thing. Because you were in poor health before, I didn’t find the right time. But promise me, try to keep calm, okay?”

Hearing his words, Lin Mengya had a foreboding.

But Long Tianyu’s warm embrace became her strong support.

She nodded and felt a little nervous.

She subconsciously grabbed his arm and couldn’t help holding her breath.

He said, “Your father and brother have been captured by the Candle Dragon Cult during our visit to the Nation of Dongxia. But don’t worry too much. As soon as I learned it, I have sent some people to seek them. Later, I got the exact news that they have been rescued by a group of mysterious people and are missing at present.”

Lin Mengya was stunned as if struck by lightning. She should have expected this long before.

Her father and brother had always been very concerned about her, so it was impossible for them to send her no letter during such a long period.

At a loss what to do, Lin Mengya was panic-stricken.

What should she do? Her father and brother had been caught. No, she must save them!

Seeing her try to get up in a hurry despite the blank look in her eyes, Long Tianyu sighed and held her tightly in his arms.

Then he said, “Keep calm. They’re not in danger at present. Mr. Zhu has promised to help us seek them. Don’t worry. Since your father and brother are not ordinary people, I don’t think they will wait for their doom.”

Shaking her head, Lin Mengya began to rack her brains. At this moment, she was perplexed in mind.

“They are in a different situation! Those people can’t be judged by common sense, and they are vicious with drastic means. My father and brother are no match for them at all! No, I must go to seek them, otherwise, otherwise…” Lin Mengya said.

At the sight of the panic-stricken and helpless look she rarely showed, Long Tianyu was distressed and tenderly kissed away the tears she shed out of anxiety.

He was aware that she needed his company in the current situation.

He held her tightly and tried to calm down her, who was on the verge of an emotional breakdown, with his warmth.

He knew her best. The more emotional she was, the more likely she was to keep silent.

She rarely vented her emotions by whining, so Long Tianyu was more worried.

“What should I do… What should I do… Long Tianyu, what should I do?” She murmured.
