Thinking this way, Xin Tongle became even more courageous to follow him! She rolled and crawled to her feet, hid behind Lin Shaoyang, and said to him pleadingly:
"Shao... Shao Yang, I... I will definitely stick with you again in the future. I promise. Can you... can you hand me over to him? I'm afraid...!!"
She was really scared! This man's murderous aura was enough to give her nightmares tonight! And she still wanted to go with him? Wuuwuwu! She was scared!!
"Tong Le, he is the princess's guard, he won't hurt anyone at will. Since the princess has asked you to settle down, she will definitely help you! You don't have to worry! The princess is very good!"
Seeing how scared she was, Lin Shaoyang felt a little sorry for her. Since Tongle was clinging to him, he could also take care of her as a sister or a friend, so he still spoke a few words to comfort her.
Xin Tongle: …?
I'm already scared to death, and you're actually praising your fiancée here? ? Is it true that the one who is loved is the one who favors? !
Xin Tongle was completely heartbroken. Since Brother Shao Yang liked her and didn't care about her life or death, she didn't care. She might as well die!
Xin Tongle prepared himself mentally and walked towards Xueying with a fearless look on his face.
Xueying didn't say a word the whole time, she just raised her hand and motioned for her to go out.
Xin Tongle paused for a moment, looked at Lin Shaoyang again, and then took this unknown step.
After Xin Tongle was taken away by Xueying, Lin Yuxin strode over, sat on the stool, and looked at Lin Shaoyang with a look as if she wanted to get to the bottom of the matter.
"Tell me! How did you offend this peach blossom?"
Li Xiaochen also walked in unconsciously and sat next to Lin Yuxin. He didn't have time to settle the score with Lin Yuxin for just mistakenly claiming to be her fiancé.
Well! Write it down in my little notebook and I will pay you double the amount later.
Lin Shaoyang sighed, sat down, drank a cup of tea, suppressed his shock, and then spoke helplessly:
"Two years ago, I went to Nanzhou City for business, and encountered a flood that happened once every fifty years. I was trapped under a tree and couldn't move. I was trapped for three days. I thought I was going to die. It was Xin Tongle's father, Uncle Xin Zhou, who saved me."
"After the flood receded, I was carefully cared for by Xin Zhou and Xin Tongle. After a few days of rest, my health improved a lot. To thank Uncle Xin Zhou for saving my life, I promised him that if he needed help in the future, I would do my best to help him."
"We have been in contact through letters for the past two years. He sent me another letter not long ago, but I was not in the capital, so I missed the best opportunity to save him. When I came back and saw the contents of the letter, it was too late."
"I originally wanted to wait until your wedding with Big Brother was over, and then go look for Uncle Xin Zhou and Xin Tong Le. After all, he saved me, so I had to help him. But Xin Tong Le suddenly came to Beijing yesterday, and came to Bai Xiang Lou to find me with a letter Uncle Xin Zhou wrote to me before he died."
"The letter said how long he had lived, that he had such a daughter, and that he hoped that since he had saved me, she would take care of Xin Tongle in the future. This was also his last words before he died."
"I originally thought that I would just take care of her for a while and wait for her to get married, but I didn't expect that Xin Tongle wanted to marry me?"
After Lin Shaoyang finished speaking, he felt very complicated. He felt guilty for not saving Uncle Xin Zhou, and was also worried that Xin Tongle actually had other thoughts about him.
"What does Xin Zhou do? Does Second Brother know?"
After hearing what Lin Shaoyang said, Lin Yuxin was silent for a moment, then looked at her second brother with a complicated expression and asked.
"I know it very well. When I was in Nanzhou City, I seemed to hear people call him dart-head. I think he was a dart-walker."
Lin Shaoyang lowered his head and thought about it, but he really couldn't remember what Xin Zhou did.
Lin Yuxin turned to look at Li Xiaochen, who understood immediately and spoke:
"I will send someone to Nanzhou City to investigate Xin Zhou's identity and cause of death!"
"Well, thank you for your hard work!"
Lin Yuxin patted Li Xiaochen's shoulder with a teachable look, then looked at Lin Shaoyang and asked with a serious expression:
"Brother, I'm your sister. Tell me honestly, do you really have no feelings for Xin Tongle? If you didn't tell the truth just now because you were concerned about your reputation, you can tell me honestly now. If you like her, I will go back and ask mother to propose to you in a fair and open way."
"I just heard you struggling, and I thought you were in trouble, so I rushed in. And then something like that happened. But you really like that girl, so I can explain, apologize to her, and help you get her back?"
Lin Yuxin really wanted to have a heart-to-heart talk with Lin Shaoyang at this time. She hoped that her second brother could be clear about his thoughts. Likes and dislikes should be made clear. Don't let them do this today and drive people away.
If the second brother thinks things through in a few days and starts to like her again, and then goes to the funeral pyre to chase his wife, then she will be guilty of a great sin!
So asking now will help save the situation, right?
"Don't! Don't! I really don't have any thoughts about her. I didn't even say a few words to her when I was in Nanzhou City, and I have a deep impression of her. It was Uncle Xin Zhou who asked me to take care of Xin Tongle. I really remember what his daughter looks like!"
When Lin Shaoyang heard that Lin Yuxin was still going to help him win back his love, he immediately became alert and depressed, and hurried to stop her.
He didn't even consider Xin Tongle as a friend, so how could he like that girl? And he also liked girls who were full of little thoughts.
"Okay! Since you really like her, I, as your sister, will help you deal with the follow-up matters at the same time, so that you don't take action and cause criticism, and make the girl have other thoughts again."
After hearing what her second brother said, Lin Yuxin had an idea, so she took the matter over directly.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, sister!"
Lin Shaoyang finally felt relieved. He was assured that his sister would take care of Xin Tongle.
"You are my brother, and I hope you will marry the girl you like in the future. You are not marrying someone else because of your responsibilities or other reasons."
Lin Yuxin spoke earnestly to her second brother.
"That's enough! Second brother knows what to do, don't worry. But you are about to get married, why are you still worrying so much every day? Are you afraid that the prince will be jealous?"
Lin Shaoyang felt soft-hearted when he saw his sister acting like an adult and worrying about his major life events. He raised his hand and wanted to touch Lin Yuxin's head to comfort her, but he was frightened by Li Xiaochen's sharp eyes and retracted his hand.
Stingy, he can touch his own sister, and that's okay? Humph!
Li Xiaochen ignored his anger and took Lin Yuxin's hand and said:
"Okay, your second brother's work is done, it's time to go back!"
"Well, let's go. Second brother will go back with us?"
Lin Yuxin nodded, and then asked Lin Shaoyang to go back.
"I have something else to do, so I'll go back first. I'll be back for dinner in the evening."
Lin Shaoyang still had to go to Baixianglou to check it out. Although it was the first day of the new year, there were not many customers, but he still kept the shop open. He went to check out the situation.
As a royal merchant, he works for the royal family, but he has no holidays! He works all year round!
