The General's Daughter Doesn't Want to Get Married!-Chapter 129: Can’t Bear It

"No! I won’t let you off until you tell me the reason you are avoiding me, My Lord! You can’t cheat on me by accepting another woman’s invitation like this!"his and ignore me!"

???

’What is he talking about?’

Where did he hear that from?

"The maids told me how that old woman was crazily courting the Lord! Even if you rejected the invitation, you wouldn’t be able to resist her once you see her beauty!!!"

Yun Shu could clearly feel the anger and sadness in Bai Yunxian’s voice, but couldn’t understand what to do.

This was a baseless rumor from the start. Besides, it’s not like she was interested in that old woman either, she was just doing her job as an Imperial servant!

"Hnng, sniff... sniff..."

What is he doing now? Crying like this out of nowhere?

’What the heck, this is so unfair!’

Yun Shu couldn’t tell him off, nor could she try to talk it out. She didn’t tell Bai Yunxian that she was just setting a trap for Xia Ruoling to fall into.

However, why did she feel guilty?

"..."

"My Lord!"

"Let go and listen to me..." Yun Shu tried to get off of this death grip, but she froze when she heard the sound of sniffing.

"What—!"

"Huhuhu... you are going to... to abandon m-me..."

"Sigh, that’s not it. I..." Yun Shu wanted to explain, but a sound of whispering came in her ears.

’Look at this guy, he dared to make the Young Lady cry.’

’So what if he is the Lord of the Empire, he is still nothing in front of Young Master Zhu!’

’To think he made the young lady cry, Lord Zhu won’t let him off if he were to see this!’

It was the shadow guards who were in charge of protecting Bai Yunxian from shadows. Even so, their whispering was heard by Yun Shu because of her overpowered sense.

’They are turning me into a scum who makes girls cry.’

Isn’t it Bai Yunxian who was at fault here for seducing her that night?

’It’s definitely his fault! But I can’t even tell the truth!’

Yun Shu grabbed Bai Yunxian’s hand as she pulled him out from behind, staring at his face with a serious look.

The corridor was empty aside from the two people standing across each other in silence, while the sniffing sound could be heard occasionally.

"I didn’t ignore you intentionally, I’m sorry."

"..."

Yun Shu saw how stubbornly Bai Yunxian stood in front of her, not stepping off an inch. He looked up at her as he said, "It’s been three days since the last time I saw you. After that night, my brother also came to meet me daily, but you never went back to the room to sleep again. I tried to speak, but whenever I went, you weren’t there, you would run off when you see me from afar or try to ignore me! Am I wrong in any of that?!"

"..."

Yun Shu was speechless as she blinked a few times.

Strange.

Why does it feel like I’m a bad husband getting scolded by my wife for coming home late every day?

Those eyes were clearly hurt, but did he still wait for me to get an explanation?

Bai Yunxian also felt bad after staring for a bit. Why does he look like he was drained off of all his energy?

There were dark circles under Yun Shu’s eyes, and her face looked haggard, her hands also seemed a little skinnier than before.

What happened during these few days?

"Did you eat properly, My Lord? Why do you look like this?" His cool hand that touched Yun Shu’s face was refreshing, so she also wiped off Bai Yunxian’s tears from his face and closed her eyes, pressing his hand onto her cheek.

"I couldn’t. There was an emergency, I thought you might be in danger if I took you everywhere, so I avoided meeting... since I thought I won’t be able to let go if I catch a glimpse of you."

It was true because in the meantime, Yun Shu dragged the Crown Prince everywhere with her for the sake of his investigation, since they needed a solid evidence behind the fall of a noble family.

Even so, Yun Shu actually did miss his presence that has been by her side.

"...!"

Bai Yunxian was startled after he saw Yun Shu rubbing her cheek on his hand, this was...

Was he acting cute?!

Even so, Bai Yunxian wouldn’t deny it was a great experience that came once in a hundred years!

The cold and nonchalant lord was acting cute like a baby chick, seeking warmth.

That doesn’t mean he will overlook the matter when he ignored him!

"Did you have breakfast yet? How about we grab it together?" Yun Shu tilted her head as she asked Bai Yunxian, who seemed confused.

Since it was already done, I might as well tell him the plan so that he could prepare to avoid any upcoming danger.

"F-fine! Let’s go then..." Suddenly, Bai Yunxian couldn’t bring himself to scold her anymore after seeing her worn out condition, and the smile she showed him made him feel even more confused.

How many women did he smile to like that?

Bai Yunxian felt bitter and jealous unconsciously, at the same time as thirst to monopolize her.

However, it will take a long time to put his idea into work. Till then...

Does he need to see other people covet what was his?

When he was thinking so deeply, Bai Yunxian was caught off guard. In the next moment, he felt someone pick him up which made him come back to his senses.

"Ahh! What is this?! My Lord!"

"Hmm, let’s go then. I’ll help you, so you don’t need to walk." Yun Shu smirked as she started walking, in a moment of surprise, Bai Yunxian grabbed her neck, so now it was more comfortable to walk like this.
