Gifted Bride of the Sinned Prince

176 The view here is better

Huang Xi stepped forward to stop Lóng Wei when Mingquan stopped him by grabbing his arm. “Let Lóng Wei handle this,” he said in a low voice.

“It doesn’t matter to His Highness if I go with a crying face or a smiling face. I will kill Feng Lao for the wrong he did to my family. I will kill all of them,” Li Hua stated, with a firm tone.

Lóng Wei pulled her toward him. “Come to your senses, Li Hua. I didn’t know you would act this stupid.” His words seemed humiliating to her.

“Leave everyone!” Lóng Wei statedMingquan was the first one to leave the chamber, followed by Huang Xi.

“Did I need to give you a separate order to leave this chamber?” Lóng Wei asked Xu Zifan. He asked Lóng Wei not to be too harsh with Li Hua. Xu Zifan left and closed the doors after stepping out.

“Did I act stupid or did His Highness? He lied to me every single time. He asked me to trust him while he didn’t trust me at all. In his eyes, I am a weak woman who needs his constant support,” Li Hua said and started to beat his chest with her hands.

“How could he come here without taking the head of Feng Lao? How could he not kill him the moment he saw Feng Lao?” Li Hua started to cry and rested her head on the middle of his chest.

Lóng Wei realized that she was not in her right mind. He put his hands on her back and caressed it. “Cry as much as you want to now. But you won’t shed a single tear because of him after today,” Lóng Wei said. He made the decision to tell her everything. Since she was aware of the half-truth, so hiding the entire truth was no longer useful.

“I didn’t tell you because I get hurt when you cry. Also, you loved him once. It would have been difficult for you to see him with his happy family. However, I was aware that someday I would have to reveal the truth to you. But I wanted to find many other answers too,” Lóng Wei asserted.

.....

Li Hua took a step back and peered into his eyes. She had stopped crying after weeping for more than twenty minutes. She wiped the tears from the back of her palms. She had made up her mind that she would never cry for Feng Lao.

After five minutes, he asked Lóng Wei, “Did he become the Governor?”

Lóng Wei made a shaky motion with his head.”No. His father is the Governor,” he replied to her question.

“The Shui family was present that night. It was all their plan to kill us. My father, my mother, and my second brother, along with my personal attendants. They killed everyone that night. How could they do this to us? We trusted them so much. My First Brother has lost his arm and it pains me to see him in that state. More importantly, why did Feng Lao take me to the forest? Why did he tell me to run away? I want to ask him these questions now. How could he sleep in peace, taking the peace from my and my elder brother’s life?”

Li Hua had hundreds of questions in her head. Also, the anger to kill them with her own hands.

“Li Hua, someone from the capital helped them,” Lóng Wei said and put his arm around her back. He brought her to one of the chairs and made her sit on it while he stayed on his knee. His hands held her hands and his gaze was on her.

“It made my blood boil to see Feng Lao as much as it did yours. The moment I saw him, I wanted to bury him alive in the ground. However, I stopped myself for a reason. It was a well-planned conspiracy against the Xu family. I need to find the real culprit, who is hidden in Qinping. Had I killed Feng Lao, then nothing good would have happened.” Lóng Wei, in his calm voice, made Li Hua understand.

“Also, you do need my constant support. Without me, you will not be able to do anything.” Lóng Wei made her aware of a bitter truth. Li Hua didn’t deny it anymore and apologized to him for the sudden burst of her emotions. Upon hearing about Feng Lao, she could not stop herself. She was devastated and at the same time, she was infuriated at herself for trusting Feng Lao.

“I don’t want them to sleep at night. I want them to cry daily in pain. I want each of them to experience what it feels like to be in hell. Your Highness, I want to see them get tortured daily. Every single person in the Shui Family must feel what the Xu Family felt that night.” Li Hua didn’t want to show any mercy to the Shui family.

“Fine. We will do that,” Lóng Wei said.

“Can I share a plan with His Highness?” Li Hua asked him.

“Sure. Go ahead,” Lóng Wei said as a tiny smile formed on his lips. “However, I would like to ask you if you are fine. We can have the rest of the conversation in the morning,” he opined. Li Hua needed to rest and after this sudden revelation of truth, Lóng Wei’s worries had increased more.

“I am fine. I need to prove to His Highness that I am not weak,” she stated.

“I only said once that you are weak. After that, I never said that. Earlier, I only wanted to calm you down. A person does wrong things when he is angry. I would like to apologize for my misbehavior. I raised my voice at you, so forgive me for that,” Lóng Wei said.

“I apologize too for talking wrongly to His Highness,” Li Hua said.

“I never got angry at you. So, you don’t need to apologize to me. This is the trust between us that made you raise your voice at me. That showed your authority over me. I am all yours, Li Hua, so you can say anything to me. I won’t ever mind. However, I may scold you when you lose the path,” Lóng Wei said, and patted the back of her palms.

“His Highness knows how to calm down,” she remarked, and ended up giving him a wide smile that showed her teeth. Lóng Wei’s heart was finally at rest to see her smile.

“Will His Highness get up and sit beside me?” She asked

“The view here is better,” Lóng Wei answered.

“Is he telling the truth? He lies way too much,” Li Hua complained.

“It is the truth,” Lóng Wei said. “From here, I can see your face better. The facial expressions are clear from here. Also, I learned one thing at a young age. Whenever your mother or wife is angry, be on your knees, and hold her hands.” He looked at her hands and brought them near his lips.

He kissed her knuckles and said, “Your hits were like a feather touch.”

“If I had hit His Highness with full force, then he would have cried,” Li Hua remarked as her eyes turned misty.
