Transmigrated As My Former Uncle's Sweetheart

Chapter 214 - Just You Wait



Chapter 214: Just You Wait

The room was so quiet that it was unsettling.

Lu Liangwei clenched her fingers. She was feeling so much stress that she dared not even take a deep breath.

It was from the gaze coming from the top of her head. It was extremely intimidating that she could not breathe.

She had originally planned to take the opportunity and request to be conferred the title of County Princess once she had cured Long Yang of the poison, but judging by the current situation, her plan had failed.

Her words at that moment were nothing more than to persuade Long Yang to back off.

He would never take her in as a goddaughter, and she was not serious about having him as her godfather. She had brought this up on purpose.

However, the Long Yang tonight was coming on to her quite strong. At the very least, he did not attempt to avoid Zhu Yu tonight because he wanted to clarify his intentions and have everything out in the open.

Her fingers tightened further.

If Long Yang was adamant about making her empress, there was no way she would be able to reject him. The entire Lu family could not reject it either.

Just as she was feeling unsettled, she felt something tightened around her arm and the next thing she knew, she was carried up in someone’s arms.

The man’s voice was as cold as frost.

“Lu Liangwei, we’ve kissed.”

Lu Liangwei did not expect him to say such a thing and her face immediately burned.

“That is why I can’t take you as a goddaughter, nor do I have any interest in accepting you as one! Do you want to be an empress or a concubine? Choose!” Long Yang tried his best to suppress his rage.

Lu Liangwei was about to say something when he interrupted, “I don’t want to hear any rejection from you.”

Lu Liangwei lowered her eyes.

He had stopped her from saying anything on those lines, what else could she say?

There were mixed feelings in her heart.

She had thought that he would leave in anger after what she has just said, just like how he did the night before yesterday. However, she had underestimated his patience.

This tactic of hers was no longer usable.

She sighed soulfully and said, “I’m afraid you’re too late, Your Majesty. My grandmother and father are now looking for a suitable match for me.”

Long Yang frowned and look at her. He was wondering what else was up in her sleeves when she pouted and continued, “My father will be setting up an arena tomorrow at the busiest corner of Heavenly Street.”

She paused as she lifted her eyes to look at him. A cunning look flashed across her eyes. “If Your Majesty is interested, you are more than welcome to try out at the arena. If you can defeat the participants, there might be a chance that you will be picked as the adopted son-in-law of our family.”

She had purposely emphasized the words ‘adopted son-in-law’.

Long Yang’s eyebrows lifted slightly. “Do you think I would not dare to be there?”

“Would you be there, Your Majesty?” Lu Liangwei blinked a few times, the troubled look on her face disappeared.

Long Yang paused and suddenly pulled her into his arms. “Does Second Miss Lu want me to be there?”

Lu Liangwei stiffened. His clean, fragrant scent filled up her nostrils. She was dazed momentarily but quickly reached out a finger to push him away at the chest. She leaned her head back slightly to evade his dangerously close scent. “If Your Majesty wants to marry me, you would have to follow the rules. My grandmother and father have said that whoever wins at the arena and is a person of character will be the adopted son-in-law. I believe Your Majesty would not go against the rules, right?”

She purposely emphasized the words ‘adopted son-in-law’ again to provoke his anger, but she had underestimated Long Yang again.

He chuckled and suddenly bowed his head to kiss her gently on her fair forehead.

“Yes, I will be there on time.”

It was as if lightning had struck Lu Liangwei. The wet sensation on her forehead surprised her. She pulled herself together and tried her best to resist wiping her forehead. She said in a clear and crisp voice, “Your Majesty, you wouldn’t use underhanded tactics to stop people from taking part, would you?”

Long Yang laughed lightly but did not deny anything. His thumb brushed across her soft face. “Lu Liangwei, just you wait.”

When he finished speaking, he pushed something into her hand and turned to leave.
