?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lin Shuang had mixed blood, so her features had hints of oriental beauty; she
looked slightly more delicate compared to the people of Country D.
The Deiss family, on the other hand, were all pure-blooded. They all had big
eyes, a high nose bridge, and a typical exotic face.
The Deiss family was huge, and the veranda was crowded with people.
While Lin Shuang was looking for a man in the crowd that matched the looks
of her fiancé, she saw soone at the back of the crowd slowly look up; his face
entered her line of sight.
The man wasn’t wearing glasses, so his features were fully exposed. His pretty
and alluring eyes were staring straight at her.
He Yidu?! That idiot really ca all the way here?! What exactly does he want
to do?! Lin Shuang’s eyes bulged, and her facial muscles twitched as she
instinctively stopped breathing out of shock.
Just then, Madam André led her entire family down the stairs to welco
them.
Lin Shuang’s eyelids trembled, and she instinctively took a step backward
before she knew it. When she realized that she was overreacting, she stood still
and craned her neck to look at He Yidu. He Yidu said before that he’ll help
call off the engagent ifI refuse to do it myself. Don’t tell that he’s really
here to do that?!
The man’s eyes remained fixed on her as he quietly moved his lips to mouth
the words: Keep running.
Lin Shuang’s scalp grew numb. She sohow had the feeling that she was
being caught cheating by her husband. She soon shook these strange thoughts
away. Knowing what He Yidu was capable of doing, she reckoned that his
presence here ant that he was certain that he could make her marriage
arrangent fall through.
D mn it! He’s a real pest! Isn’t he tired after chasing all the way here?! Lin
Shuang’s heart was trembling. She didn’t have the ti to think about anything
else; all she had in mind was to run. “I have an urgent matter to attend to. As
long as Madam André’s grandson is willing to marry , I’ll get married to
him. Decide the matter on your own. I’m leaving”
After saying that to her father, she turned around and strode back to the car,
where she pulled the driver off the driver’s seat. She couldn’t be any more
familiar with running away.
He Yidu was caught off guard by her actions. His expression darkened slightly
the mont Lin Shuang walked back to the car, and he imdiately pushed
the people in front of him away, wanting to run over to stop her.
yett moved faster than him, though. Just as Lin Shuang was about to get
into the car, he quickly walked over and pressed on the car door. His eyes were
serious as he whispered, “What are you doing, Xixi? What urgent matter do you
have that you have to leave now?
“M-my friend is dying. I’m going to see him for the last ti.” Lin Shuang lied
through her teeth as she tugged at the door and snuck a glance at He Yidu.
Seeing that Lin Shuang had been stopped, He Yidu exhaled in relief and slowed
down his footsteps as he made his way toward them while gritting his teeth
slightly. I can’t understand what she’s thinking. Why would she still think of
running away at tis like this?
yett held onto the car door tightly. “You agreed to the marriage
arrangent yourself. Since you’re already here, behave yourself and show mne
so face.”
Lin Shuang believed in exacting revenge, so even though yett really hoped
that she could marry into the Deiss family, he was afraid that she might’ve only
agreed to the marriage agreent just so that she could embarrass him in
front of everyone on this day. And sure enough, she really was going to run
away now.
yett glanced at Madam André and the rest of the crowd before whispering
softly, “Don’t you want to fetch your mother back ho?”
This was what they had agreed upon-after she got engaged to the Deiss
family’s grandson, her father would fetch her mother out of the nursing ho.
anwhile, everyone else present was confused as to what was going on, and
things stayed like this for almost a minute.
Madam André and the rest of the people walked toward them. The forr
looked at Lin Shuang and yett in bafflent before looking at Miraine and
Sasha to ask, “What’s wrong with Princess Xixi?”
Miraine shook her head to indicate that she wasn’t quite sure herself. Lin
Shuang was soone who did as she pleased and wouldn’t consider the big
picture, so it ca as a surprise to everyone when she agreed to the marriage
agreent. yett even made preparations in advance to prevent his daughter
from running away.
He Zhiwen and An Rong, on the other hand, were confused when they saw Lin
Shuang, having t her at Gu Mang’s wedding and knowing that their son was
fond of her. As they watched yett tightly holding onto the car door for his
dear life, a bold thought ca to their mind. Don’t tell that Princess Xixi. is
Lin Shuang?!
The husband and wife looked at one another. That explains why Yidu changed
his mind about coming here. This is truly.. such a coincidence! Now, we’ll
surely have our dauglhter-in-law! But. she looks like she wants to run away.
An Rong wondered in frustration, Is my son..really that bad?
As Lin Shuang looked at the people surrounding her car, she couldn’t help
feeling a little despair when she realized that she had completely missed the
best ti to make her escape. D*mn it! I can’t run away now!
“Xixi, get out of the car first,” said yett in a strict voice.
Lin Shuang pursed her lips and slowly took her ti getting out of the car
before shooting a death glare in He Yidu’s direction.
yett looked at Madam André. “Im sorry, Madam André. Xixi was shocked to
find out that her friend had t with an accident, so she wanted to go and take
a look.”
That was the only reason he could give to explain his daughter’s odd behavior.
Madam André was very forgiving. “It’s okay. If it’s urgent, she can go and et
her friend first.”
He Yidu frowned before asking in a gentle and mild manner, “Which friend of
yours has gotten into an accident, Princess Xixi?”
Lin Shuang was disgusted by how He Yidu addressed her.
“Do you need to accompany you?” He Yidu politely probed further.
Madam André glanced at her grandson, surprised that he was being so
proactive.
yett, who had also t He Yidu at Gu Mang’s wedding, found it strange to
see soone from the capital here today.
“No need, I’ve gotten soone else to handle it.” Lin Shuang maintained a
smile on her face as she gritted her teeth and glared at He Yidu. I won’t be able
to co back if I let him go with .
Madam André turned her gaze to Lin Shuang. “You may leave first if you really
have sothing on.”
Lin Shuang shook her head with such elegance and class that it was unlike her
usual self. “It’s okay.”
Madam André said nothing more on the matter. Instead, she smiled and said, “T
haven’t seen you in many years, Princess Xixi. You’re getting prettier and
prettier.”
Lin Shuang thanked her out of politeness.
Madam André then invited everyone inside the castle.
Madam André and yett were leading the crowd and were chatting with each
other.
An Rong glanced at the visibly upset Lin Shuang and nudged her son with her
elbow before whispering, “Tell , son. Do you have so sort of unspeakable
disease? He’s usually not in the capital, so I only get to see him a few tis a
year. I’ve never really shown concern about his health before. If it’s because of
my negligence that he ends up suffering so sort of disease and is disliked by
Lin Shuang for that.
“What? He Yidu didn’t understand her question.
An Rong appeared to be very anxious as he said, “Don’t be scared about seeing
doctors. Go see Young Madam Lu right away if there’s anything wrong with
your body. If you feel embarrassed about it, I can also help you find another
doctor so that Princess Xixi won’t dislike you.”
There were only so few illnesses that n would be afraid of going to seea
doctor for.
Having understood her question, He Yidu fell silent and suddenly realized that
won were especially good at imagining things. With an expressionless face,
he assured her, “Mom, I’m in good health, and she knows.”
An Rong blinked her eyes. She? She knows?!
It was easy to guess who he was talking about.
“You guys..” An Rong’s eyes bulged. Have already...
Inside the castle, the group walked along the resplendent corridors toward the
banquet hall.
While they were rounding a corner, soone suddenly pulled He Yidu’s arm
and dragged him to a corner before he knew it. He was pressed against the wall
by his shoulder as he looked at the woman in front of him.
Lin Shuang was wearing a custom-made royal court gown that was simple and
classy in style, and her long chestnut hair flowed down her shoulders in curls.
She really looked like a princess in this getup.
She inclined her head and tooka cautious glance at the entourage in front of
her, who were clueless and chatting away. She then retracted her gaze and
stared at He Yidu. “What are you doing here?”
He Yidu lowered his head slightly, his gaze falling on her face with exquisite
makeup as he returned her question with another. “You tell .”
“Tve slept with you, but I won’t be taking any responsibility for you, so you can
forget about ruining my marriage plan.” She then added in a harsher tone, “I’m
telling you, I’m going ahead with this marriage no matter what.”
She wasn’t certain about it at first, but upon seeing how firm He Yidu’s attitude
was, she reckoned that he would only give up when she got married. To think
that I naively thought that I wouldn’t face such issues as long as I blocked him
fast enough. His tenacity knows no bounds!
He Yidu raised his eyebrows slightly. “No matter what?”
“Yes!” Lin Shuang whispered firmly in a bid to show her determination. “I won’t
call off the engagent no matter what!”
He Yidu nodded, and amusent flashed in his eyes. “What if you end up
Wanting to call it off?”
“Unless that bloke isn’t willing,” Lin Shuang blurted out, having been
brainwashed by Yun Ling from her daily chat with him.
He Yidu narrowed his eyes. “.. That bloke?
Lin Shuang supplented, “Madam André’s grandson, I an.”
“Ohhh, so you’ll definitely get married to him if he’s willing to marry you?
Lin Shuang lifted her chin. “Of course, so don’t dream of ruining my marriage.”
He Yidu chuckled.
“What are you laughing for?” Lin Shuang wrinkled her eyebrows in confusion,
only to have her wrists grabbed and tugged at the next second. Caught off
guard, she fell against He Yidu’s chest and instinctively clutched onto his suit
jacket.
He Yidu tightened his grip on her wrists as he looked down and tickled her ears
with his breath and his slightly hoarse voice. “Don’t worry, Why wouldn’t I
marry Princess Xixi if she’s so eager to get married to ?”
Lin Shuang’s ears grew numb and her mind beca blank. What did he say?!
