C160 votive candle (2/2)
Besides, there was nothing to hide between husband and wife.
”If you like.” Yun Luo seemed very understanding.
”Today, Shangguan Min expressed her feelings towards me.” With a simple sentence, Yun Luo's eyes widened.
”Who?” Who did you say? ” She confirmed it again.
”Shangguan Min.” Nangong Yu repeated these words.
”How could she …” Cloudfall sat blankly on the bench, his hands gripping his dress tightly.
Knowing that he was liked by others caused her heart to feel pain and discomfort.
When Wu Dan appeared in the past, she didn't feel this way. Why did she feel so much pain now?
She wasn't worried that she wouldn't be able to beat Shangguan Min. Originally, she had a good foundation with Nangong Yu, so it wouldn't be so easy for others to interfere.
However, whenever she thought of someone trying to take him away, she felt as if something had been destroyed. Perhaps, that was the only thing she could think of.
That was the only person he gave her.
”I can tell if it's true or false.” Nangong Yu consoled him, ”After I came back, I thought for a while. I guessed that she must have found out my identity, so he did something like this.”
”You mean, she wants to borrow your strength?” Yun Luo's brain was quite sharp.
”Probably.” Nangong Yu nodded. ”We all know her character. She won't do business with a loss.”
The Second Miss was such a proud and astute person, she definitely wouldn't do things in a straightforward manner.
”Indeed.” Yun Luo agreed. ”Then she's a fake to you, but after so long, it's hard to avoid a fake show.”
Yun Luo suddenly thought of this.
One had to know that the two of them had been acting for real back then.
Remember? She had just started doing Shangguan Wan's thing, and Nangong Yu hated her so much that her teeth itched. She wanted nothing more than to throw her into the river and float away, out of sight and out of mind.
But later on, in order to pretend to be a loving couple in front of others, they had put forth all of their effort to perform. She was still a vixen, but he was no longer the same Nangong Yu.
His Majesty was well aware that he was in love with her.
He was willing to live and die with her.
”That's why we need to finish this as soon as possible and get out of here.”
”But we haven't gotten our hands on the holy water yet. Do you want me to steal it?” Yun Luo felt a little awkward. On one side was her husband, and on the other was her sister's appearance.
”Think about it again. Wait until the fifteenth of the next month, then it might be too late.” Time was of the essence, there was no time to delay. Besides, he could not be sure if Shangguan Li would really give them the holy water next month.
Now, it was time for Yun Luo to test her friendship.
While it was still not too late, Yun Xiao invited Shangguan Li into the pavilion.
Actually, even if she didn't say anything, he knew why she did it.
He was the first to speak, ”Is this lady unable to wait?”
”Indeed.” First of all, your elder sister is eyeing me like a tiger, and second of all, my elder sister's birthday is just around the corner.
Since the two sisters were twins, their birthday was also on the same day. However, for her, her elder sister becoming beautiful was the best present she could give her.
”But, I really cannot make an exception. Only people from my Shangguan family are qualified to receive the holy water at any time, but only for their own use and cannot pass it on to others.”
Shangguan Li was also very helpless when he said this. Although he was a princess, he had no choice but to comply with the rules passed down from his ancestors.
Actually, in his heart, he really wanted to help her. It was rare for him to meet someone from the opposite sex that could chat with him.
However, in front of Dharma, the feelings between people were usually too weak to withstand a single blow.
