"So fragrant!" Why does your little hand smell so good... "It smells so good that I want to take a bite …" Bai Yuhao took a deep breath. The small hand that was pressed against his mouth was emitting a tempting fragrance that made people feel relaxed and happy.
"You're going to die!" Loong Xueyan said in a displeased tone. She immediately retracted her small hand as if she had been electrocuted. Her charming face began to flush.
After the carriage passed through the heavily guarded palace gates, Bai Yuhao felt that people outside the carriage gradually started to clamor. Lifting the carriage's curtains, he saw bright lights and lanterns hanging outside. It was very lively.
The carriage stopped at a place not far from the busy city.
Bai Yuhao and Loong Xueyan got out of the car.
"Miss, I will wait for you here. However, I have to go back soon. Otherwise, if I get discovered, I won't be able to take responsibility. " The woman who was driving also got off the car and respectfully said to Loong Xueyan.
"I won't make things difficult for sister Ying." Loong Xueyan smiled and nodded to the girl. Then, she nodded to Bai Yuhao and the two of them walked towards the busy city.
"That big sister Ying is …" Bai Yuhao asked curiously.
"Oh, she's my personal maid. Ever since your mother, the Little Imperial Concubine, passed away, it was she who took care of me and protected me like my sister. In private, I always call her Elder Sister Ying. " Loong Xueyan explained.
"What about your parents?" Bai Yuhao couldn't help but ask.
Loong Xueyan shook her head and smiled bitterly. "I was sent to the palace when I was very young. I have no impression of my parents."
"Don't you want to look for them?" Bai Yuhao asked.
"Witch cannot have any kinship disputes, and cannot be controlled by the seven emotions and six desires. Otherwise, it would affect the ability bestowed upon her by the Dragon Clan. I will be the same! This is Witch's fate! " Loong Xueyan blinked as she replied.
"Isn't that the same as liking people?" Bai Yuhao frowned.
Loong Xueyan nodded.
"What if there's someone you like?" Bai Yuhao asked.
"Then we can only pretend that we don't like it." Loong Xueyan glanced at Bai Yuhao as she pursed her pink lips.
"Does that still allow people to live? Why don't you just stop being Witch. "Whoever likes to go." Bai Yuhao said in annoyance.
"You think everyone is as ridiculous as you are. "Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Come take a walk with me …" As Loong Xueyan spoke, she directly admired the many kinds of exquisite lanterns that were hung all over the street. Very quickly, she was attracted by them and excitedly wandered around. Bai Yuhao had also become the companion of others.
The two of them strolled all the way until they reached a reflection of the moon. There was a cool breeze blowing on the riverbank, and they saw many people sitting on the riverbank with lanterns and boats, writing their wishes on the lanterns and boats.
Loong Xueyan turned around and glanced at Bai Yuhao. She pursed her red lips and a look of contemplation appeared on her face. Then, she walked towards the river bank.
Seeing this, Bai Yuhao also followed over. He saw Loong Xueyan ask an aunt for a lantern boat and then write something on it.
"What do you wish for?" Bai Yuhao immediately went over.
"You're not allowed to look." Loong Xueyan immediately put the lantern boat behind her.
"It's not like I'm going to lose any meat." Bai Yuhao became more curious as Loong Xueyan seemed to care a lot.
"Go and buy me a lantern over there. It must be the most beautiful one." Loong Xueyan took a silver coin from her waist and gave it to Bai Yuhao. Then, she pushed Bai Yuhao.
Bai Yuhao looked back at Loong Xueyan and shrugged. Then he went to buy her some lanterns. When he returned, he saw Loong Xueyan standing by the river, watching as the boats filled with lanterns flew by. She looked sad and resentful.
"What happened to her?" Bai Yuhao asked curiously as he walked over.
Seeing Bai Yuhao walk back in, Loong Xueyan suddenly said in all seriousness, "Loong Xuan, I also have something to tell you."
"Sure." Bai Yuhao nodded, thinking, "She can't be confessing to me, right?" Uncle, my charm is really great!
After that, Loong Xueyan walked along the riverbank with Bai Yuhao following closely behind.
The two of them walked up to a row of willow trees. Cold wind blew, and their cloaks fluttered.
"Loong Xuan, you must remember what I said today, because I won't say it a second time. I don't like forcing you to do anything, but this time you have to promise me one thing. " Loong Xueyan's beautiful eyes slightly shook as she spoke with a serious expression.
"I won't force you." For you, I can go to the mountain of blades and descend to the sea of fire … "Don't even mention one thing, one hundred is fine …" Bai Yuhao promised solemnly.
"I don't need you to do this for me. You just have to take care of your own. Because he was about to become the son-in-law of the Ximen Family Clan. In the future, you still have to be a man who can hold his own, so you have to take good care of yourself. "That way, I won't worry about you!" The light in Loong Xueyan's eyes dimmed as she shook her head, looking at the moonlight in the river.
"Xueyan, what do you mean by that …" "Didn't you want to show me..." Bai Yuhao frowned.
"I know you hate Ximen Xue, so you definitely don't want to agree to Dragon Emperor's arranged marriage." Loong Xueyan turned around and said to Bai Yuhao as if she saw through Bai Yuhao's thoughts.
"That's right. If you want me to marry that fierce and evil woman, then I might as well spend my entire life fighting you!" "I was even planning to have you help me persuade Dragon Emperor …" Bai Yuhao's impression of Ximen Xue was extremely poor.
"What I want you to promise me is that you must marry Ximen Xue." Loong Xueyan's delicate face froze as she said.
"What?" After Bai Yuhao heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked. He didn't expect Loong Xueyan to ask him to marry Ximen Xue. Previously, Loong Xueyan was opposed to this, but why did her attitude suddenly change?
"You must marry her. If you marry her, you will have a position in the Holy Dragon Kingdom that no one can shake. " Loong Xueyan said confidently.
"Why do you want me to marry her? Is it just for the sake of your bullshit status? " Bai Yuhao's gaze darkened.
"This is for your own good, and also for the good of Holy Dragon Kingdom. Besides, if you disobey Dragon Emperor's orders, it won't do you any good. He has placed great hope in you. If you disappoint him, the consequences will be dire. "Even if you are his son …" Loong Xueyan's words were definitely not a joke. Although Dragon Emperor's words were very tactful when she was spying on him, she understood the meaning behind them.
