Chapter 194 - 192. Don’t Forget (1/2)

Third-person POV

Meiyun approached Weisheng's study room and spotted the Qi brothers standing in front of the door. She smiled and bowed to them.

Meiyun: ”I heard that His Majesty Emperor called me to come here.”

Qiyi stared at Meiyun vacantly. Even after half a year, he still couldn't forget the woman who was standing in front of him.

Qier: ”En. His Majesty Emperor is waiting for you.”

Meiyun: ”Thank you.”

Meiyun walked past them and entered the room. Qier swiftly closed the door and pinched Qiyi's arm to get him out of his daze.

Qier: ”Focus.”

Qiyi: ”En.”

Meanwhile, Meiyun kneeled on one knee and with her fist cupped.

Meiyun: ”Greeting to our Majesty Emperor. Is there any instruction for his servant?”

Weisheng: ”En. You have done your job very well.”

Meiyun: ”This servant thanking Your Majesty Emperor for the compliment.”

Weisheng: ”You are going to marry General Di but don't forget our agreement.”

Meiyun: ”Yes, Your Majesty Emperor.”

Weisheng: ”Dismissed.”

Meiyun: ”Yes.”

Meiyun bowed her head and turned around to leave the room, but a voice stopped her.

Weisheng: ”Be happy.”

Meiyun glanced at Weisheng and smiled.

Meiyun: ”Yes.”

She opened the door and walked out of the room. The Qi brothers saluted Meiyun and she did the same to them.

Qier: ”I wish you have a happy marriage.”

Meiyun: ”Uhm! Thank you!”

Qiyi: ”Meiyun…”

Meiyun: ”Hm?”

Qiyi: ”I…”

Qiyi: '...love you.'

Qiyi bit his lips as he tried to brave himself to tell her his feelings. But then he realized it was too late. Meiyun arched her brows in confusion.

Meiyun: ”I?”

A sad smile displayed on his lips as he spoke.

Qiyi: ”I wish you are happy with him.”

Meiyun was quite taken back. She took his hand and smiled gently.

Meiyun: ”You too. Please be happy.”

Meiyun patted his hand and quickly turned away to leave. Qiyi reached out his hand yet didn't manage to catch her. He stared at the direction where Meiyun left.

Qiyi: 'I will.'

*The next day

For the whole day, Meiyun has been thinking about her marriage. Hong er had caught Meiyun spacing out for quite a few times but chose to ignore it as she understood what Meiyun was thinking about.

She got a piece of news from one of her elite forces that the Di family had arrived at the Royal Palace to give their greetings to their new emperor. And without saying, she as an empress had to be there too, therefore, Hong er was getting ready to visit the main hall.

Meiyun was replaced by Ming Yu as the bride shouldn't meet the groom for a few days before the marriage. (A/N: Idk if this is true or not, I just made it up.)

Hong er sat beside Weisheng at the throne and the Di family greeted both of them then discussed the national affairs as a whole new country just added into Da Qi.

While Weisheng was talking to Di Yu, Hong er noticed that Di Shang subtly looking around the hall and his face showed that he was very disappointed. Hong er used her sleeve to cover her grin. She knew exactly what Di Shang was looking for and she was here to enjoy his misery.

While on the other side, Meiyun was surprised by a tanned skin woman who out of blue appeared in front of her. Meiyun immediately got alarmed and summoned her sword rings.

Meiyun: ”How can you get in here?”

Meiyun growled dangerously. But the woman only whistled in amazement without replying to Meiyun. The woman also moved her hand and summoned a huge boomerang. Meiyun charged forward at full speed. However, the woman managed to block Meiyun's attack with her boomerang.
