Chapter 1625 - 1625 Meeting His Future Brother-In-Law
1625 Meeting His Future Brother-In-Law
If she went to see her Royal Brother, he would be smart enough to notice what had transpired.
That would be too embarrassing.
She had never thought that Royal Brother would arrive so quickly and it caught her by surprise.
Chen Jin had walked out just as Hexin was speaking to Long Yin in the front courtyard. When he spotted them, he quickly returned to inform Beitang You about it.
When Hexin came over, they had just walked out of the room.
Beitang You knew Yaoyao was afraid to see Long Yin when he saw her acting out of sorts. He held her shoulders and comforted her. “Don’t worry. I’ll take care of everything.” With that, he said to Hexin, “Take Yaoyao to wash her face before coming to the front courtyard.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.” Hexin nodded. “I informed Big Bro Long Yin that Big Sis Yaoyao had gone to the lavatory.” She paused before continuing, “I didn’t tell him that you are here. You might need to…”
Beitang You understood what she was trying to say. She wanted to tell him that Long Yin did not know he was at the holiday home. He could very well sneak off and avoid any potential trouble.
Beitang You could not help laughing at this thought. “It’s fine. Since my future brother-in-law is here, how can I make an escape? That would be too rude of me!” He gave Yaoyao a deep look as he said this.
Yaoyao’s face burned. The thought of what they had just done in the room made her feel even more embarrassed. She pulled Hexin’s hand and quickly walked inside.
Beitang You watched both of them return to the backyard before heading toward the front courtyard.
Front courtyard.
Long Yin sat down along with Qi Heng, Long Huaiyan, Bao Yu, and the others.
The housekeeper led some servants to serve up tea and dessert before leaving.
Yuan You could only follow Long Yin and the others to the front courtyard after Hexin left her behind.
She sat reservedly in her seat as she sized up everyone wide-eyed with her big, round eyes.
Of course, she did not dare to look at Long Yin because he was too intimidating. Her gaze swept around Qi Heng, Long Huaiyuan, and Bao Yu.
It was then that Qi Heng put down his teacup and broke the silence. “I say, Miss Rabbit. Are you done sizing us up?”
Yuan You pouted when she heard this and said unhappily, “Are you talking to me?”
Qi Heng found it funny as he replied, “Who do you think looks like a rabbit among us?”
“You’re the rabbit. You… You’re Master Rabbit!” Yuan You said angrily.
“Pfft!” Long Huaiyuan spat out his tea. He gave Yuan You a thumbs up. “That’s a great nickname for him.”
Qi Heng’s face turned green. He glared at Yuan You and said, “How could a little lady like you talk about me that way?”
Yuan You felt this was unfair. “You were the one who started it and said I’m a rabbit. Why is it that when I say it, it sounds like I said something wrong?”
Qi Heng was taken aback. This little lady must now know what Master Rabbit really meant[1], and he shut his mouth awkwardly.
Long Huaiyuan burst out laughing but when Long Yin darted him a look, Long Huaiyuan immediately stopped laughing and straightened up in his seat, acting as if the person who had laughed moments before was not him at all.
Bao Yu was not in the mood to laugh at Qi Heng. She shot a few looks outside and said, “Why isn’t the princess here yet?”
Long Yin looked outside as well and said nothing. He could tell that the girl, Hexin, must be hiding something from him.
What was Yaoyao up to?
Why has she not come here to meet him when she knew he was here?
It was then that they heard footsteps coming from outside. Bao Yu’s eyes brightened and she stood up, thinking it was the princess. However, it was a young man who walked in.
Long Yin’s browed furrowed when he saw the young man, but he got up and said, “What are you doing here, Big Brother Beitang?”
“I heard that you were in capital city and news came to me that you’re already at the Prince Rui holiday home. I had nothing on my hands, so I came here to see you.” Beitang You covered it perfectly.
