145 Let Their Love Blooms on Its Own... (2/2)
They met Lin Jian halfway to the hua lou. He cheerfully greeted Yao Ying but then his eyes landed on her. Lin Jian looked at Yao Ling in confusion and asked Yao Ying, ”Yao Ying, who is this?” Didn't Yao Ying say that he wanted to talk about an important thing? He guessed it was about the mission. If it was about the mission, why did he take this flower boy along with him? It was supposed to be a secret mission!
Lin Jian looked at Yao Ying, gasped. ”Do you betray Yao Ling with a man?” Lin Jian was half-joking and half-serious. He tried to find out about this flower boy's identity.
Yao Ying glared at him and felt like choking the man in front of him. What kind of nonsense that he was talking about?! Did Lin Jian accuse him as a cut-sleeve?
”Do you want me to punch you?” Yao Ying asked while gritting his teeth in annoyance. This guy seriously needed a beating!
On the other hand, Yao Ling was trying to hold back her laughter. She always knew that Lin Jian sometimes had a crazy sense of jokes, however, looking at the angry look on her husband's face... she couldn't help but want to laugh! Did they usually interact like this? Unlike women, they behaved more openly and also talked honestly what's inside their mind. It was refreshing for Yao Ling who had to talk with her brain all the time, instead of sincerity. She always needed to think and arrange her words carefully before talking. It was more tiring.
Yao Ling rarely saw this kind of expressions on his husband's face --- a mixture of anger and annoyance. He was usually calm around her --- well, except at night. His lusty face was one of the expressions that she would never forget! When she remembered his lusty face, she couldn't help but blush.
Lin Jian saw that expression and felt bewildered. The flower boy looked at Yao Ying and blushed. He started to believe that both of them had an improper relationship and it made him feel more curious!
”Yao Ying... are you really having an inappropriate relationship with him? Look at the way he's blushing!” Lin Jian asked in disbelief. Why did this guy look so feminine? He even blushed like a girl!
Yao Ying wanted to open Lin Jian's head and see what's inside his stupid brain. ”Don't you feel that he's a little familiar?” Yao Ying didn't want to uncover Yao Ling's disguise, so he could only subtly ask. How could he accuse him a cut-sleeve in front of his wife?! It was so embarrassing and he could also see the laughter in Yao Ling's eyes.
”No... I don't think so!” The thought that this man was Yao Ling never crossed Lin Jian's mind. After all, their destination was hua lou. A noble lady wouldn't want to step her foot into this kind of place. No wonder that thought never crossed Lin Jian's mind.
However... when the more he saw this man, the more he felt that somehow she looked familiar. ”Wait... wait... are you...?” He trailed off. Looking at the way this man behaved... was this man actually a woman? ”Yao Ling?” He asked in bewilderment.
Yao Ling laughed and said, ”Greeting to you, Lin Jian gong zi. Indeed... this one is Yao Ling. Finally, you can recognize me!” Yao Ling grinned mischievously.
”Why... why are you looking like this?! Why are you disguising yourself as a man?!” Lin Jian whisper-yelled at Yao Ling. He knew that Yao Ling didn't want people to know her real identity and he respected her wish.
Yao Ling felt that Lin Jian's reaction somehow was a bit funny. She felt that he was overreacted, even Yao Ying didn't act that way. However, she knew that he reacted that way out of concern anyway.
”Because I'm coming with you,” Yao Ling answered leisurely with a smiling face.
