Chapter 487 - A Glimpse Of His Past (3) (2/2)

Yao Ying bit his lower lip when he heard Li Guang's story... The latter got some of the points from the letter that the maidservant had left --- the maidservant wanted Yao Ying to know his background and in actuality, no one was abandoning him. At that time, Yao Ying was still too young to understand everything so she had never told him about it and taken her role as a mother perfectly.

Li Guang was different from her. He took Yao Ying under his wings and the order from Yao Ying's father was different from his maternal family. Li Guang needed to treat him harshly with training and lessons so that he could become a powerful person despite his weak body. It indeed made the delicate little boy become a strong man but it also created a gap between him and his so-called father.

Yao Ying heard the truth and he blamed his father for everything --- especially because his father had never shown him any fatherly love. It made him become rebellious and it made Li Guang get a lot of headaches in return.

Yao Ying listened to everything patiently, then he asked, ”So, I used to live with you?”

”Yes, Master,” Li Guang answered.

”What was my status there?” Yao Ying asked curiously. He knew very well that they couldn't tell other people that Yao Ying was his master, besides, he found him as an orphan.

”This...” Li Guang felt a bit hesitant.

Yao Ying looked at Li Guang intently and said, ”Why are you being hesitant? Was it that bad? Was I a servant there?” Yao Ying didn't think that it was that bad to become a servant there.

”No...” Li Guang answered. ”I don't have the heart to treat you like that, no matter what, you are still my master. I told people that you are the son of my benefactor, so even if you are weak, people have to treat you with respect, Master.”

”Just that?” Yao Ying asked curiously. From Li Guang's darting eyes, it seemed like he didn't honestly tell him everything.

”Er... It's just a random thing that I made up back then. I said that you are the fiancee of my elder daughter...” Li Guang admitted. He had no choice back then but still... it wasn't his place to determine his master's marriage and he was still feeling guilty about it. Not only that, but he did that out of selfish reason as well.

Yao Ying sighed in relief, so he didn't have any relationship with Ying Ying's elder sister. He looked at the screen, hoping that Yao Ling was listening as well. He was the innocent party here and it was just Li Guang's lie, so everything should be fine, right?

”Oh... It's good if it's only a fake engagement...” Yao Ying said in a low voice and there was a hint of happiness in his tone.

Li Guang was surprised when he heard that --- he thought that the engagement was already a sealed deal!
