Chapter 192 - Saving the Most Precious Thing for the Most Sacred Moment [1]

\nZi You looked amused at him. Why did his overbearing and childish declaration made her heart feel as if it was soaked in honey, which would disappear in sweet water at any time?

Shangguan LingRan looked at her bashful face. Under the cool moonlight, she was like the bright moon shining on his heart. His devilishly charming eyes narrowed. A sweet smile appeared on his jade-like face. His large hand held her small hand tightly. The soft feeling in his hand told him that everything today was real. His YouYou was back.

He looked at the moonlight outside the horse carriage’s window like he was looking at his and Zi You’s future. The horse carriage’s every movement made him very excited and looking forward to the future.

Shangguan LingRan hugged her from behind. His delicate chin gently rubbed the top of her head. He smelled the scent exuding from her hair and took a deep breath. His lazy voice contained deep possessiveness. “YouYou, if I can, I really want to take you home right now, so that other people can’t covet you.”

The smile on Zi You’s face slowly turned cold. When she returned to the capital, there were really a lot of things waiting for her to do.

Firstly, she had to take care of Zhao HongXiang. That scum was actually not tortured to death by his drug addiction.

Shangguan LingRan had told her that the b*stard was suffering for a while like she had said.

But Darong Ka had found a way to cure him. Now, Zhao HongXiang had hooked up with Yu Lanxuan. He had listened to Nee Chen and Yu Lanxuan’s instigation and wanted to dissolve the engagement when Old General Mu had suggested it to Duke Yongnan.

Duke Yongnan had refused, however. “There is no news that You’er is dead. How can we dissolve the engagement now? Won’t we be scolded as being heartless?”

People already gossiped that the engagement was them taking advantage of Zi You. If they dissolved the engagement now, they would be scolded even more. How could there be a girl from a good family willing to marry Zhao HongXiang then? And who would want to have dealings with someone who was so selfish?

Nee Chen and Zhao HongXiang didn’t understand. They gave up since Duke Yongnan refused. Nee Chen also felt that Yu Lanxuan had the aura from a small family and couldn’t be seen in public. She wasn’t worthy to be the mistress of Duke Yongnan fu.

And there was still Wang Yiping. After Old General Mu was severely ill because of Zi You, then Mu YingYi became ill. After he recovered, Nee Liu was ill from exhaustion.

There was no other choice. There were no other female masters at home. In addition, Wang Yiping had used her blood to copy scriptures to pray for Old General Mu. Old General Mu saw that Nee Liu was ill and left her in charge of the house temporarily.

This woman was absolutely treacherous. Her two legs were originally completely wasted. Somehow, one of her legs was healed. Now, although the other leg was lame, she could walk with the help of crutches.

And Mu YingRui was demoted because of her, so he hadn’t seen her for a period of time. But he had been gradually coaxed by her. In addition, he saw that one of her legs was lame, so he was extra tender towards her. He had reconciled with her again. And now this woman was six months pregnant.

And there was Taizi. He had been in the limelight lately. Since such a thing happened on his and Liu Ruixue’s wedding night, that man began to coax Liu Ruixue and was particularly loving towards her.

The Empress was dissatisfied and often made things difficult for Liu Ruixue. Taizi had protected her and even quarreled with the Empress.

The thing that made Liu Ruixue touched was that Taizi was actually there at Duke Anguo’s 45th birthday party. He had even addressed Duke Anguo his father-in-law.

As such, news of Taizi favoring the concubine and neglecting the wife spread. Liu Ruixue was very touched. Even Duke Anguo who had not expressed his position before had stepped out in support for Taizi.

As a result, Duke Anguo furen had persuaded Nee Liu to persuade Mu YingYi to place people from Taizi’s camp in the army of the five cities.

Nee Liu was then reprimanded by Mu YingYi. They had quarreled and Mu YingYi was angry and slept in the study. As a result, Nee Liu’s first-rank maidservant Yueluo schemed to climb onto the bed. She had drugged Mu YingYi and he had accepted Yueluo as a tongfang yatou.

Nee Liu was doubly betrayed by her husband and confidant maidservant and became severely ill again.

Zi You immediately suspected that this was done by Wang Yiping. Zi You didn’t believe that a demon would really become a Buddha.

“YouYou……” Shangguan LingRan saw that Zi You was distracted and his face turned cold. Her deep and bright large eyes weren’t looking at him anymore. He immediately protested in dissatisfaction. “You’re not allowed to think of other people or other things now. You can only think about me.”
