Transmigrated As My Former Uncle's Sweetheart Chapter 1582 It Has Always Been A Huge Gamble



Yaoyao regarded him in bemusent.

"Why? What made you fall in love with ?"

"Actually, Yaoyao, I asked your father for your hand in marriage the day I left Great Shang's imperial capital." Beitang You smiled ruefully.

Yaoyao was surprised. "Back then, you were already…"

Her startled reaction made Beitang You smile, and he could not help giving her dainty nose a pinch. "That's right, but unfortunately, your father rejected . I was ready to give up and return to the Yan Kingdom, but then I t you again outside the city gates. Once I learned that you wanted to go to the West Water Frontier, I was thrilled, thinking that perhaps our journey together might give an opportunity.

"But the prejudice you held against was too deep, and you wanted nothing to do with , so I had no choice but to give up and hide my feelings. I never thought that you'd disguise yourself as Chen Jin and follow to the Yan Kingdom—you have no idea how happy I was when I found out you were here."

As Yaoyao listened to him quietly, she groaned to herself, 'If I'd known I'd get into this ss, I wouldn't have co to the Yan Kingdom.'

Beitang You was not a bad suitor—it was the opposite, in fact. As the ruler of a kingdom, he was willing to humble himself in front of her, which was very rare.

However, she had too many concerns.

"Maybe it's fate that brought us together; otherwise, why'd you appear before every ti I tried to give up?" Beitang You sighed with emotion.

"Those were just coincidences…" Yaoyao frowned. She did not believe in the idea of fate.

"The first ti, maybe. But the second?" Beitang You smiled at her.

"Hey, you're the ruler of a kingdom. How could you believe in such a thing?" Yaoyao said contemptuously.

"Before I t you, I didn't believe in fate either, but after eting you, I ca to believe in it—and I'm willing to do so, too." The corners of Beitang You's lips turned up. After a pause, his voice deepened. "Yaoyao, you're going to co of age soon, and you're going to get married soday too. Can you guarantee that you'll et soone better than —soone who will love and accept you more than I will? If not, you're better off choosing ."

Yaoyao was unconvinced. "I wouldn't be too sure about that. Maybe I'll et soone a hundred or thousand tis better than you."

"Really?" Narrowing his eyes, Beitang You suddenly pinned her against the pillar behind her.

"O-of course!" Yaoyao refused to admit defeat.

Seriously—this man was so full of himself!

"At least I can find soone younger than you."

"n younger than don't know how to pamper won. In fact, you might have to tolerate their antics," Beitang You said dismissively.

Yaoyao, "..."

"Marry —I'll be good to you and only you for the rest of my life. What's more, you'll be my one and only woman forever, just like how your father treats your mother," Beitang You said gently.

"But a lifeti's so long—who can guarantee that your heart will never change? Besides, the Yan Kingdom's so far away from Great Shang—what should I do if your heart changes one day?" Yaoyao knitted her brow, not at all moved by his promise.

Beitang You was at his wits' end. After everything he said, this girl was still so cool-headed, which surprised and frustrated him at the sa ti.

"Well, a person's heart will change if it's bound to, no matter how close your parents are. I know you might not believe no matter what I promise now, but marriage has always been a huge gamble, Yaoyao—so do you dare to take this gamble with ?"

Yaoyao was ridden with conflict. "You're right, but I can't answer you right away. Can you give so ti? I need to think about it."

Marriage was for life. She could not say yes so carelessly.
