Chapter 708 - A Great Gift (1/2)

Lin Mengya almost kept smiling all the way home from Gou An’s place.

Not to mention Qinghu, who stayed away from her, her tremendous affability even made the others in Marquis Zhennan’s Mansion feel a chill down their spines.

Seeing her in such a cheerful state of mind, all the others were stunned.

She really couldn’t think of a proper way to celebrate, so as soon as she returned to her room, she immediately closed the door and burst into wild laughter.

Even Hongyu, who had always been steady, almost fell on hearing that. “What… what’s wrong with her?” Standing in the yard, she cautiously asked Qinghu, who had nothing to say about it.

“Who knows? Maybe her head got squeezed in the door,” Qinghu replied expressionlessly.

In fact, he was also confused about what made Lin Mengya laugh so wildly.

Fortunately, her crazy state didn’t last long.

After nightfall, Lin Mengya gradually returned to normal. She just hummed a tune she had learned from somewhere, while embroidering a peony, on which she had spent a long time, in her room.

Long Tianyu appeared outside the Grace Butterfly Courtyard as usual.

“You’re finally back, Your Highness,” the four maids, who were instructed to stay here, immediately came up to greet him, but they seemed to have something else to say but stopped on second thought.

Long Tianyu was puzzled. They usually avoided disturbing Lin Mengya and him automatically. He wondered what was going on today.

“Is there anything wrong with your Miss?” Long Tianyu furrowed his brows as he asked tentatively, feeling his heart skipped a beat. Could something have happened to her?

“Not… exactly. Alas, anyway, Your Highness, you’d better be careful. Miss seems to be a little abnormal,” gritting her teeth, Hongyu finally gave him the sincere instruction they had been thinking under the encouraging gazes of the other three girls.

After that, the four maids exchanged glances and quickly dispersed in all directions tacitly.

What… was going on?

Long Tianyu was confused. After looking around suspiciously, he finally frowned and walked into the Grace Butterfly Courtyard with heavy steps.

“You’re back. Are you thirsty, hungry, or cold?” As soon as he pushed the door of the Grace Butterfly Courtyard open, he smelled a fragrance and heard a voice.

Then, the woman, who was leaning against his chest, stared at him with her innocent and fluid eyes.

Suddenly, Long Tianyu was alerted and moved to a state of vigilance.

He could only put his arms around her slender waist, wondering if she had taken the wrong medicine.

“Come on. Make yourself comfortable,” Lin Mengya said, with her silvery white teeth shining chillingly and a strange smile on her pretty face.

Long Tianyu, who was stunned, could only let her hold his hand and press him down in a chair with a little strength.

“Are you… alright?” Lin Mengya’s abnormal behavior made Long Tianyu’s hair stand on end, and he involuntarily asked.

Watching him in a panic, Lin Mengya smiled and stopped pretending to be enigmatic.

“Well, I’ll stop teasing you. Look, I want to show you something. Don’t be too grateful to me after seeing it,” as she said, she threw a dark yellow official letter in front of Long Tianyu.

Long Tianyu glanced at his wife in confusion and at the official letter in front of him, wondering what on earth made her so cheerful.

He picked up the official letter on the table hesitantly and opened the envelope. After reading it for a while, he showed a trace of shock in his dark and deep eyes.

“This… This is…” Long Tianyu was so excited that he couldn’t even finish his sentence. He held Lin Mengya’s small hands tightly and his eyes were gradually filled with ecstasy.

“Exactly, it’s the peace treaty of the Nan’an State. I flipped through it and found the king of the Nan’an State sincerely offers generous terms. So I think that your father will be pleased with it,” Lin Mengya said.

Long Tianyu could tell that without being reminded by Lin Mengya, so he was ravished with joy.

With the peace treaty, the Shangguan Family’s plan would come to naught, and his father would be relieved.

“My wife is indeed the rarest woman in the world!” Long Tianyu, who usually maintained a poker face, said cheerfully like a child and kissed Lin Mengya’s delicate face heavily.

“You’re so annoying… Keep it properly. The person, who delivered the peace treaty, was attacked by someone mysterious. You can roughly guess who the attacker is, right?” Lin Mengya said.

Her words immediately brought Long Tianyu back to his senses.

The peace treaty went against the interests of the Shangguan Family and would make them lose the opportunity to regain military power.

Given the way the Shangguan Family dealt with affairs, they certainly would not let go of the messenger easily.

“I will handle this cautiously. Speaking of this, we should express our gratitude to the messenger,” Long Tianyu said with a childish expression, that he wouldn’t show in front of anyone other than her.

Lin Mengya smiled faintly, thinking this was what she wanted.

“Okay, that’s exactly what I’m thinking about. But it’s inappropriate for him to show up now. In fact, no one other than you and me knows the existence of the peace treaty. I think that you had better enter the Imperial Palace to discuss with your father as soon as possible. The messenger is safe now. If it’s really necessary to bring him to the Imperial Palace to meet His Majesty, I think it’s better to do it in a big way than in secret,” Lin Mengya said.
