489 A Rare Gem (1/2)

”Ah... I am not a Da Ren anymore, you can just call me Li Guang,” Li Guang said politely despite feeling wary of her. No matter what, she was currently the wife that his master had acknowledged.

Yao Ling looked a bit hesitant and asked for Yao Ying's help --- they weren't that close ah~! How could she call him just by his name?

Yao Ying nodded his head, encouraging her. ”You are my wife and Li Guang has acknowledged your status as my wife as well...” Yao Ying felt that what he said had been cleared enough. In the end, Yao Ling really called him by his name and when she saw that there was no displeasure in Li Guang's face, she sighed in relief.

At least, they could stay polite on the surface, even though they knew that they were wary of each other. Yao Ling wasn't stupid --- judging from Li Guang's expression, it seemed that his daughter harbored some feelings to Yao Ying.

Even if there was a bit of displeasure in Li Guang's heart, he couldn't show it on his face. His master had said it clearly about her status, so there was no way that he could blatantly ignore Yao Ling even if he wanted to.

Yao Ying could also feel the slight tension between them but he pretended that he didn't see anything --- at least, for now. He still needed Li Guang to reveal everything to him. He decided to stop pursuing the marriage matter --- at least, he already let Li Guang know his stance.

After Yao Ling sat down, Yao Ying looked intently at Li Guang once more. He was trying to think which question that he should ask first. There were so many questions in his head, however, he didn't feel as burdened as before because, in his mind, the woman matter had been settled.

Yao Ying sighed and continued with his question, ”I know I don't remember anything but I will still need your guidance. Tell me! What have we been doing the past few years?”

Li Guang knew that there were would be a lot of things for them to talk about and his eyes darted at Yao Ling, feeling uncomfortable with her presence. ”Can Mistress... er... this?” He stuttered while asking the question.

He didn't need to finish his questions and the couple already understood his meaning. Yao Ling was gritting her teeth in annoyance but she would let Yao Ying handle his own man. It wasn't worth it to fight over this even though she felt offended.

”Of course, she can! I trust her with my own life!” Yao Ying declared loudly. ”You don't have to question her anymore... She's not a liability here! She is my wife!” Yao Ying emphasized the last part stubbornly.

”Why?” Li Guang couldn't help but ask. He really wanted to be obedient but he didn't trust Yao Ling who appeared out of nowhere --- in his mind, he was concerned whether his master had been blinded by the woman or not.

Yao Ying was annoyed by Li Guang's rude question but he knew that this matter had to be solved sooner or later. Otherwise, there would be no trust in their relationship. He actually wanted to skip this part today but Li Guang just wouldn't let him be. He could only deal with this matter right away, probably it wasn't a bad thing too.

He needed to let Li Guang give up his hope...

”There are many reasons... and I will tell you about it one by one... Maybe you should listen to our story first so that you will get an understanding of the trust between me and my wife,” Yao Ying said confidently.

Yao Ying started to tell him the story that had happened right after he lost his memories. Only briefly though... and not only that, he also didn't tell Li Guang about Yao Ling's real identity. There was no trust yet between them --- what if Li Guang wanted to use this as an opportunity to raise his daughter's status and remove Yao Ling from her position?

Yao Ying didn't want to risk it. Thinking about it already made his mind go crazy --- he wouldn't let anyone separate him from Yao Ling.
