Chapter 83 Ism Going To Climb The Wall (2/2)
There had always been a fragrance exuberating from Lin Mengya's body.
Now with the additional fragrance from the flowers all around, the air smelt especially sweet. It truly gave them a fresh wave of energy.
Qinghu swung on the branches and the two of them were tossed up onto the cliff.
Lin Mengya had apparently fallen in love with the sea of flowers. She wished she could live here if there was another chance.
She had sneaked out quietly and was now returning to her room quietly.
However, when the two entered the Prince's Mansion, there was ashen-faced Lin Kui, standing at the gates, blocking Lin Mengya and Qingyu's way.
”Princess, the Prince is asking for you.”
Qinghu was trouble.
He had just come to stay and he had lured the princess out to play. It was no wonder there were such rumors concerning him going around in the society.
”Alright, I'll be right over.”
Lin Mengya was totally unperturbed, being caught by Lin Kui. Long Tianhao had, in the beginning, agreed to her term of letting her go freely in and out of the mansion.
Moreover, Qinghu was her bodyguard. Long Tianhao was agreeable to this too.
After Lin Mengya instructed Qinghu to return to her courtyard to send her servants the message, she followed Lin Kui and headed towards Long Tianhao's study.
”Your Highness, I have something to tell you, yet I'm hesitant about it.”
Lin Kui was a forthcoming person, and he had been getting along with Lin Mengya well. Therefore he was usually rather direct with her, than to be bound by the rules.
”Please say it.”
”It was not becoming of you to go out with that guy today, Your Highness. There is a rumor going around that that guy was the exclusive companion of a courtier. Eventually, he became a fugitive because he murdered his master. I would advise the princess to keep a safe distance from him, lest your reputation be ruined.”
Lin Mengya's heart missed a beat when she heard Lin Kui's words.
She had been guessing in her heart the first time she set her eyes on Qinghu.
However, the rumors about Qinghu's background still took her by surprise.
”Rest assured, I'll be more cautious in the future.”
In Lin Kui's mind, it was a ludicrous thing for a man to be another man's exclusive companion.
Therefore, while he could accept the fact that Qinghu was a killer from Peach Blossom Dock, he could not accept that he was a some man's toy.
It was no wonder people had looked at Qinghu in a strange way.
It seemed that this guy had quite a remarkable past which was kept a secret from others.
On the other hand, Lin Mengya was not one bit curious about Qinghu's past. She would like to believe that he thought of his past as a nightmare that was past.
She did not have the habit of digging up people's ugly past.
It was sufficient for her to know that Qinghu was her friend now.
When she entered Long Tianhao's courtyard, she could see a bright red figure from afar.
Long Tianhao was a tall, imposing man. Clad in a jet black robe, he was stunningly handsome.
Behind him was a beautiful lady with gorgeous features, smiling sweetly.
The entire scene was like a beautiful picture. Even Lin Mengya, as an outsider, felt a tinge of envy.
”Your Highness, the princess is here,” said Lin Kui, at a loss of what to do. Although the Prince was not to blame, he was after all inexperienced under such circumstances.
In the past, there was no woman in the mansion. There were only men serving the Prince. They were never faced with such circumstance.
Sigh, the more women, the more trouble there would be.
Long Tianhao gave Lin Mengya coldly as if his eyes were frozen with ice.
She had thrown him out last night, and today, she had left the mansion in the fits of rage.
Why was this woman so bad tempered?
”You may step back for now,” Long Tianhao waved his hand, indicating for Lin Kui and Hongyu to leave. Just like the night before, there were only the two of them frozen in a stalemate in the courtyard.
”Who did you go out with?” asked the Prince as he could smell the floral fragrance on her although her clothing was neat and tidy. Could it be that she still had the mood to go enjoy flowers?
”Qinghu,” replied Lin Mengya. To her, Long Tianhao had no right to be upset, given that he had another beautiful lady by his side.
”How is it appropriate for you to go out of the mansion with another man in private?” questioned Long Tianhao as a great fury began welling up in him.
Qinghu was a man after all. Would they not develop some kind of emotions between them if they spent all their time together?
”Yes, I was prepared to jump over the wall. I was going astray! You and I are just pretending to be husband and wife anyways, why should that be a taboo for me?”
Lin Mengya blurted out in a frenzy, but her own words had taken her by surprise and she was feeling dizzy.
What about climbing over the wall?Did she say that she was going astray? For goodness sake, why was she unable to contain her emotions?
”Alright! Since that is the case, let's make ourselves rightful husband and wife, so you can't climb over the wall!”
Regardless of whether there were emotions of love involved, every man would feel badly hurt and their dignity as a man threatened if his wife said that she wanted to climb over the wall.
Before she grasped what Long Tianhao was trying to say, she was being lifted and put over Long Tianhao's shoulders.
”Ah! What are you trying to do? Put me down!”
She kept pounding on Long Tianhao's back and her small pale face was totally flushed from rage.
Long Tianhao, on the other hand, seemed unperturbed by her yelling and beating, but continued heading towards his study.
”You... you dashed me in pieces!”
Without any warning, Lin Mengya was thrown down onto the small bed in the Prince's study.
The wooden paneled bed was nothing like her soft bed in her room in Liuxin Courtyard.
