Chapter 57
Knowing Lu Xiaobai's temper, He Qin's mood suddenly improved. He started to tease him again and asked doubtfully, "Aren't you worried about me? Then why are you so angry?"
"Are you mad that I didn't die? You even wish I'd died in that business trip, so the villagers wouldn't force you to marry me, right?"
Hearing this, Lu Xiaobai became even angrier and stared at He Qin without saying a word.
He just didn't want to get married at first, but later on, everything was fine, and he didn't regret it!
Moreover, Lu Xiaobai knew that He Qin knew what he meant, but he still distorted the facts to anger him. How could he be so annoying?
It was better when He Zhou was around. When He Zhou was around, He Qin was more restrained and would not bully him whenever he got the chance like he does now.
Lu Xiaobai was so angry that he threw the stick in his hand at He Qin's feet and shouted angrily: "You bastard, no wonder your brothers teamed up to deal with you. With your character of distorting facts and reversing right and wrong, it would be strange if they didn't deal with you. You deserve it!"
No matter who said this, it would be disrespectful and he would be furious, but when it came from Lu Xiaobai's mouth, He Qin inexplicably wanted to laugh.
He suppressed his laughter and was about to make a few more jokes when Feng An came over and said, "Brother Xiaobai, you misunderstood. Brother Qin treated us very well at home. It's just that Third Brother was deceived by a villain, so we..."
Feng An smiled and sat next to Lu Xiaobai. He smiled gently and said, "It's my and Third Brother's fault. Brother Qin was implicated."
After knowing how much He Qin cared about Lu Xiaobai and how many exceptions He Qin had made for Lu Xiaobai, Feng An also calmed down.
He couldn't confront Lu Xiaobai head-on. Although they were engaged, his relationship with Brother Qin was only at the level of courtesy. Now that Lu Xiaobai had appeared, he had even less chance of winning in terms of feelings.
But it doesn’t matter, as long as the engagement is there, the position of queen will definitely be his.
Lu Xiaobai looked at Feng An who was sitting next to him, frowned unhappily, stood up, pulled a small stool and sat next to He Qin, leaning against He Qin closely.
Then he said to Feng An: "You don't need to admit your mistakes. Everyone knows this problem. Now it's not about whether He Qin will forgive you, but He Qin doesn't want you anymore. Go home as soon as possible!"
For some reason, his younger brother Feng An gave him the impression that he was naughty and annoying.
Hearing this, Feng An almost couldn't control his expression. He had lived in the palace for more than ten years. Everyone there was a monster. No matter how much they hated someone, they would still greet them with a smile, even if they turned around and stabbed them with a knife.
This was the first time he had seen someone as straightforward as Lu Xiaobai, and he was almost thrown into disarray by the lack of preparation.
Sure enough, a country boy is a country boy. He has no knowledge of etiquette and rules and is ignorant.
Feng An's face froze for a moment, then he carefully took out a jade pendant from his clothes and handed it to Lu Xiaobai.
Then he whispered, "I know Brother Xiaobai doesn't like me, but we will eventually live together in the future, so please don't be hostile to me. This jade pendant was given to me by my father. It is one of the best jades in Nanhe. I am giving it to Brother Xiaobai as a meeting gift."
It doesn't matter if he is humble now. When he becomes the queen in the future, it will be easy for him to mess with this country boy with no education and no background.
Lu Xiaobai didn't know what Feng An was thinking. When he heard the other party give him the jade, he didn't reach out to take it, but stared at the palm of his hand.
This jade is transparent, white and smooth. It is indeed a good piece of jade, and it is also the kind of accessory that the powerful and wealthy wear around their waists.
It looked good, but he didn't like it, and even didn't like the tone of Feng An's voice, as if he had done something terrible.
Seeing Lu Xiaobai staring at the jade pendant intently, He Qin was worried that he had really accepted Feng An's gift. He quickly reached out to cover Lu Xiaobai's eyes and pulled him into his arms: "Xiaobai will never live with you, so there is no need for a meeting gift."
Feng An's hand paused in the air, tears welling up in his eyes. He withdrew his hand with a sad look on his face, tears falling as he smiled. He asked softly, "Brother Qin, are you planning to never forgive me for the rest of your life?"
Lu Xiaobai was suddenly covered with his eyes and pressed into his arms. He was stunned for a moment and then began to struggle: "He Qin, what are you doing? Let me go, let me go quickly..."
He Qin didn't answer him. He looked down at the little guy in his arms and smiled subconsciously. He reached out and cupped Lu Xiaobai's face and said, "I'll buy you something better in a few days."
Don't take his things.
Lu Xiaobai half-lay in He Qin's arms, her face still held by him. Unhappily, she twisted He Qin's hands, pouting and angrily saying, "I didn't ask for his things, let me go."
Seeing Lu Xiaobai's face flushed with anger, and his pouting look so cute and funny, He Qin simply forgot Feng An's existence, holding his face and shaking his head, and by the way, he used his legs to push him closer to his arms before saying, "No."
Lu Xiaobai vaguely heard Feng An's words just now and wanted to confront him, but how could he do so now?
Being restrained by He Qin, he lost a lot of momentum, okay?
Lu Xiaobai was almost crying. While patting He Qin's arm, he also reached out to pat He Qin's head: "He Qin, stop it, let go quickly, are you trying to pull my head off like this?"
He Qin also didn't want to pull Lu Xiaobai's head off. If he pulled Lu Xiaobai's head off, he would be left without a wife.
He Qin pressed the person into his arms again and said with a smile: "Call me husband, and I will let you go if you do."
Lu Xiaobai's face hit He Qin's chest again. He was so angry that he couldn't speak. He struggled and screamed: "Ugh... He Qin, are you trying to suffocate me to death? Let go, I'm short of air, let go, let go..."
Feng An was stunned when he saw the reactions of the two. This was the He Qin he had never seen in more than ten years.
He Qin is of such a noble status, how could he change to this extent for an uneducated country boy?
"Brother Qin, you..."
Tears streamed down Feng An's face, but this time he was really crying because he understood that he had already lost He Qin when he and the Third Prince did that thing.
Even if, even if it was just that marriage relationship, he lost it.
Lu Xiaobai's hair was messed up from struggling, and he seemed not to have heard what He Qin said just now. Seeing that He Qin didn't let go for a long time, he thought that He Qin was partial to Feng An.
She felt extremely aggrieved and burst into tears: "He Qin, you bully me again, I hate you, woooo..."
Hearing Lu Xiaobai crying, He Qin quickly let her go. Lu Xiaobai's hair was a mess, her headband was loose, and her face was covered with tears. She looked so embarrassing no matter how you looked at her.
Feng An thought with disgust that he would never let himself become like this in his life, it was too ugly.
Lu Xiaobai was so angry after being released that he stood up and kicked He Qin's leg hard: "He Qin, you've gone too far. You deserve to be robbed!"
After kicking, Lu Xiaobai ran back to the room while stroking his hair.
Feng An watched Lu Xiaobai attack He Qin and subconsciously stood up: "How could you hit Brother Qin?"
But Lu Xiaobai ran too fast and didn't hear what he said.
He Qin, however, used tongs to dig at the brazier, took out the eggs, and knocked them with a stick while saying, "As long as it's him, he can do anything."
Feng An sat down weakly, and asked with a dull look in his eyes: "Then I..."
"You can be queen."
He Qin took a small handkerchief, wrapped the egg after cracking the mud, and gently wiped the dust: "As long as He Yu ascends the throne, you will still be the queen."
"No……"
Feng An immediately shook his head: "Brother Qin, you know, it's not just the Queen, there's also..."
He Qin: "Feng An!"
Of course he knew Feng An's feelings for him, but it was impossible. Before he met Lu Xiaobai and before that incident happened, the two of them might have followed the historical trajectory of Nanhe Kingdom and married him.
Even if there is no love, even if we respect each other like guests.
But now he has met Lu Xiaobai and understands how his royal brother felt at the time, so it is no longer possible.
He Qin looked Feng An in the eye and said word by word, "If I return to the imperial city, the rule that the empresses of the Nanhe Kingdom must be from the Feng family will change. If I don't go back, you will still be the empress, and the Feng family will still be the most noble family in Nanhe. Think carefully about what you want to do."
After He Qin finished speaking, he walked towards the bedroom with the baked eggs.
Feng An sat there alone, shocked by He Qin's decisiveness.
How should he choose?
If he persuades He Qin to go back, the position of queen will not be his.
He Qin is fully capable of changing this rule, and even implicate the Feng family and make him the sinner of the Feng family.
But if I don't persuade He Qin to go back, then what about him, what about his feelings over the years...
Feng An stood there in a daze, staring at the brazier, his eyes full of hesitation and pain.
Lu Xiaobai is now combing his hair in the room.
It's a pity that a boy like him has to learn to comb his hair like a girl. Fortunately, in ancient times, except for monks, everyone had to comb their hair, otherwise he really couldn't accept it.
Lu Xiaobai tied her hair up angrily. Just then she saw He Qin coming back. She glanced at him unhappily and noticed that he was holding an egg. She quickly ran over and snatched it away: "This is mine!"
He Qin: "Yes, yours."
Lu Xiaobai ignored him and sat at the round table with the egg. He cracked the hot egg open and after thinking for a while, he handed the yolk to He Qin: "Eat it."
Don’t bully others after eating it, it’s very annoying!
He Qin looked at Lu Xiaobai's expression, slowly sat down beside him, grabbed his hand and asked, "Do you think I like egg yolks?"
Hearing this, Lu Xiaobai asked curiously: "Isn't it?"
Before, he saw He Zhou giving egg yolks to He Qin, so he thought He Qin liked to eat egg yolks.
It just so happens that he doesn’t like egg yolks, and one likes egg whites and the other likes egg yolks. What a perfect match!
Lu Xiaobai's thoughts were simple, and most of the time He Qin could see through them at a glance. He nodded slightly and said, "Yes."
Hearing this, Lu Xiaobai really became happy, with a very proud expression on his face. He smiled and said, "Look how good I am to you, and yet you bully me every day. Doesn't your conscience hurt?"
