1752 Very Much To My Liking
“Xue’er is my younger cousin. Escorting her home is my responsibility. In fact, shouldn’t you refrain from involving yourself in such situations?” There was unhappiness hidden in Long Yin’s dark eyes.
Wanyan Zhi was taken aback and he looked at Lu Xue, who had now grown up to be a beautiful young lady.
It was true that he…really should refrain himself.
“Thank you for the reminder, Cousin Long Yin,” he replied lightly.
Lu Xue felt a little disappointed for some reason when she heard this reply. She opened her mouth to say something but hesitated.
What was Cousin Long Yin doing?
She had not seen Big Bro Wanyan for such a long time and all she wanted was to chat. Why would he have to refrain himself?
In fact, Lu Xue thought that Cousin Long Yin should be the one to refrain himself from acting like this.
She gave a few coughs and broke the awkwardness in the atmosphere. “It’s really not that much of a journey. There are also guards from the mansion waiting for me outside the Palace. It’s too troublesome to escort me back and forth and it’s been a long day for you, Cousin Long Yin. There is no need to worry about me. I can go home on my own.”
Long Yin’s face turned a little sullen from Lu Xue’s blatant rejection and he stopped in his steps as he was about to walk forward.
His dark eyes looked at her quietly for a moment, then his eyes shut slightly. “If that’s the way you feel, very well.”
Lu Xue could tell that Cousin Long Yin was angry and she could not help but feel a little troubled over this.
Cousin Long Yin treated her really well, but there were times when she felt suffocated by him.
He was too overbearing and always wanted to get involved with every single thing related to her, which constantly bothered her.
“Uncle Emperor, Aunt Liangwei, I’ll be heading home first.” Lu Xue coughed and said goodbye to them.
Long Yang was drinking tea at the side and did not say a word. He should not get involved with relationship issues of the younger generation, nor did he want to.
He nodded slightly when he heard this. “Be careful on your way home.”
“Alright.” Lu Xue looked at Lu Liangwei again.
Lu Liangwei sighed in her heart and went forward to pat Lu Xue’s hand. “I’m still a little worried about you going home on your own.” With that, she turned to Wanyan Zhi and said, “I’ll need to trouble you to see Xue’er home, Zhi’er.”
“Don’t worry, Aunt Liangwei. I’ll make sure Xue’er arrives safely at Grand Duke Mansion.” Wanyan Zhi agreed and said to Lu Xue, “Let’s go.”
“Alright.” Lu Xue smiled sweetly—all her troubles seemed to have vanished as her tone sounded happy and relaxed.
After watching both of them leave together, Yaoyao and Hexin met each other’s eyes and saw the worried look in each other.
Long Yin glanced at Lu Liangwei with a dark and aggrieved look in his eyes.
Lu Liangwei noticed it immediately; after all, she had created this opportunity for Wanyan Zhi and Lu Xue on purpose.
She could tell that they had feelings for each other.
When she noticed the slightly aggrieved look thrown at her by her son, she gave a light cough and turned to Yaoyao and Hexin to say, “It’s getting late. You should both go to bed.”
Yaoyao knew that her parents would be talking to her royal brother about what happened with Cousin Lu Xue after this. She was itching to stay and said, “I promised Father to get him water to wash his feet. How am I supposed to return to bed when I haven’t fulfilled my promise?”
Lu Liangwei smiled with exasperation and poked Yaoyao on the head. “If you were truly filial at heart, you can still do it tomorrow or the day after. We don’t need you today. Hurry up and go back.”
Hexin could read the room very well. She quickly pulled the unwilling Yaoyao away. “Big Sis Yaoyao, the book you gave me yesterday was a really good read. Let’s go back and discuss it.”
When Yaoyao saw how determined her mother was to get her to leave, she walked out of the room with Hexin in disappointment.
Long Yang put down his cup of tea and the first words he said were actually to praise Hexin.
“Hexin might be young, but she knows how to handle situations well. She’s smart and understanding. Yuan Xin has brought up her daughter very well.”
Lu Liangwei sat next to his side and agreed fervently. “Exactly. Xinxin’s character is very much to my liking. I like that girl so much.”
