Ch92 - What would he do if he didn’t properly control his own momentum and frightened him? (2/2)
Although he also liked that his blood related younger brother was returning home, if the price that had to be paid was Qiwen’s unhappiness and heartbreak, then it would be better for it not to happen.
This was very unfair to his blood related younger brother that had been away from home for so many years, but for him and his second brother, the little merchild they watched grow up was actually more precious.
Yan Chuhuan sighed somewhat helplessly. He could not figure out what would happen later, and for the first time, he found that he could do nothing but resign himself to fate. They certainly would not give up Yan Qiwen just because they had found the real youngest master of the Duke’s Palace, but Yan Qiwen’s heart would probably be hurt again.
Each and every one of them knew exactly how deep their mother’s obsession with her little son was.
The Yan family was more lively than ever tonight. The scene of blood relatives who had been separated for many years finally reuniting was very touching. Xue Ling looked at the Duchess and Yan Qingjun who were crying and hugging each other tightly, pressed his lips together, and quietly looked down, standing to one side. He had his head lowered, and nobody could see the expression on his face.

Yan Chuhuan stood beside him trying to comfort him a bit, but as soon as his hand touched his shoulder, Yan Qiwen raised his head.
“Eldest brother, I’m going to go out for a walk.” He opened his mouth to say.
Yan Chuhuan stared at him and found that his eyes were slightly reddened. He sighed helplessly and said, “Go ahead. Just walk around near the entrance – don’t go far.”
Xue Ling nodded, turned around and left in his merfolk chair. Now that there was nobody around, he naturally would not need to continue to pretend that he was sad that his mother had been stolen away by his friend. He had used that as an excuse to come out because the system had reminded him that Lou Cen was outside their home.
It also made it easier for him to go back with a smile as though wanting to be happy for the two people inside later on. Although he had not felt much during the whole process, this was role-playing, and Xue Ling would still try to follow the original personality settings as much as possible.
Besides, Lou Cen ran out before even finishing dinner. His mind had been blown by his mother’s news, and his brain was basically blank. He had never been in love before, and he had been full of confidence about not going to see the other party based on the fact that they were engaged. Now that he had suddenly discovered that there were no bridges linking them together, and that it was very possible that he would not be able to get close to the other party because of the broken engagement, Lou Cen could not sit still.
He went straight to the Duke family’s residence, but when he got to the entrance, he didn’t know what he should say to get in, so after he got out of the car, he stood foolishly at the door for a while, staring at the house that had lights on inside. For a moment, Lou Cen’s face was full of confusion.
This was the first time his heart had moved, the first time he had felt such determination to obtain such a person. Clearly, everything had been good a moment ago, but in the next second, he had nothing…
This kind of feeling was too terrible. It was so awful that he wanted to get into a fight with someone.
He was still standing there stunned when the door to the villa suddenly opened.
Lou Cen’s eyes were unconsciously glued to the door as a merfolk chair slowly came out and the door slammed shut after it. The little merman emerged with his cheek propped up against his hand, his expression gloomy.
Lou Cen’s gaze fell on him, and then he could no longer move his eyes away. He had no idea when the other person had already arrived in front of him.
The door to the grand entrance opened, the little merman raised his gaze to look him in the eye, controlled his merfolk chair to go around him, and then directly left.
There was a small park in the community. Xue Ling planned to stay there for a while.

As for the one at the door, he would follow him even if he left him there. He didn’t need to say anything to him at all.
Thinking about it, it was only today that Madame Lou had informed him that the engagement between the two of them had been cancelled, and it was only today that he finally came over in a panic. Xue Ling was rather sulky that he had not accounted for Madame Lou’s actions, and directly placed the blame of him losing the bet with the system on the man’s shoulders.
As a tsundere, there was nothing wrong with him getting angry about such things.
As a repressed, bottled-up person, Lou Cen’s hot eyes followed Xue Ling’s figure the entire way until he reached the other side of the wall.
The sound of the door closing woke him up completely. He had not thought that he would be able to meet the other person like this. Lou Cen was feeling ecstatic as he followed Xue Ling.
“It’s not safe for a fish like you to go out alone at night.” He caught up with him, but he was stifled for a long time and could not say anything. It was not until Xue Ling entered the park that Lou Cen finally let out this sentence.
Xue Ling was not happy that he had become a ‘fish’. Although it was true that he was a fish, he was very reluctant to be one. So, when he faced Lou Cen, the expression on his face was not good at all. “This is the territory for aristocrats, and nothing will happen to me. Rather, what is Lieutenant General Lou doing here in the middle of the night?” He paused, and unhappily added another sentence, “I heard from my second brother that you’ve just been promoted to General. Congratulations.”

Lou Cen was figuratively blocked by his words and did not know what to say. The little merman’s cheeks were bulging slightly, and it seemed that he was thoroughly angry. He was clearly in a rage, and the words that he spoke were clearly bitter and harsh, but when they came to Lou Cen’s ears, and in Lou Cen’s eyes, the scene was incomparably cute.
How nice. He could see him again after half a month’s wait.
This made Lou Cen want to kill off the earlier version of himself who had been insisting on refusing to see the little merman. It was only that his character made it difficult for others to like him, but he was so cute, and Lou Cen had actually planned to distance himself away from him from because of some inexplicable reasons. He had even previously wasted so much time and so many opportunities to be close to him. The him from half a month ago absolutely had to have had a problem with his brain!
Clearly, he had wanted to place that person within his own embrace as soon as possible when he woke up.
“Wenwen.” He opened his mouth and called out to him. “I came to talk to you.”
“Our engagement has already been dissolved.” Xue Ling frowned at him and said discontentedly, “So don’t call me in such an intimate manner. General Lou and I have already cleared things between us. Could it be that you are dissatisfied with merely breaking off our engagement and want to make sure I cannot get married?”
“How could I keep you from getting married?” For the first time, Lou Cen became rather frustrated that he was not eloquent. He used to think that as long as he had enough power, he could use strength to crush a person, and the other party would naturally not oppose him and could only follow what he said. But when he was faced with his little merman, he didn’t even have to think about it to know that such a method was not feasible.

He was so small. What would he do if he didn’t properly control his own momentum and frightened him?
Xue Ling: Ha-ha.
