Chapter 560 Extra: Lu Can (VI)

Lu Can turned his head and found it was Cui Yunyin.

She was chased by a group of people with knives, and her horse had been slashed, so she had no choice but to abandon the horse and flee.

Without hesitation, Lu Can shot the crossbow at the pursuers, then rode his horse quickly towards Cui Yunyin and lifted her onto his horse with one hand.

Cui Yunyin's heart was pounding.

This Fourth Brother Lu looked weak and frail, but surprisingly he was a good horse rider and could even carry her onto the horse with one hand.

"Let go of our Third Miss."

"Miss San, please stop making trouble and come back with us."

The pursuers hurriedly dodged Lu Can's attack.

Lu Can just fired his gun once, and after the continuous firing of the crossbow in his hand ended, he immediately rode away with Cui Yunyin, leaving them far behind.

"Who is chasing you?" Lu Can slowed down when he heard their calls.

Cui Yunyin was afraid that he would abandon her, so she quickly hugged his waist tightly.

"She is a servant in my house. But I don't want to go back. They force me to marry someone I don't want to marry. That person is six years older than me. I don't want to marry her."

Hearing this, Lu Can immediately felt the same way.

"My mother also forced me to get married, but I only wanted to marry the one I loved, and didn't want to just marry a random girl and spend my life with her. This would be irresponsible to her, to my own life, and to my future children. That's why I ran away from home."

It was the first time that Cui Yunyin heard this. She blinked her bright eyes and looked at Lu Can.

"Why do you say that?"

"If a couple doesn't love each other, how can they live their whole life? If parents don't love each other, the children they give birth to are just tools for carrying on the family line." Lu Can thought of himself and pursed his lips slightly.

The emperor does not love his biological mother.

His biological mother only saw him as a tool to fight for power.

If his mother had not held him in her arms and raised him, he probably wouldn't even be able to feel his mother's love.

Noticing his silence, Cui Yunyin said hastily, "I think you are right. People should marry the one they love."

Lu Can didn't say much. He took her to the next city and then put her down.

"You are a girl, living alone outside, so take care of yourself. Don't always be angry with your family, and be submissive when necessary. Talk to your parents nicely, they may not force you to get married." Lu Can led the horse and planned to find a place to settle down.

He couldn't afford to stay in the inn anymore, so he planned to stay in a motel.

The foot shop is cheap, but the people are mixed, so he needs to be vigilant.

Unexpectedly, Cui Yunyin followed him closely.

"Why are you following me?" Lu Can turned his head and looked at her.

"I'm a weak woman, and it's not safe to be alone outside. Fourth Brother Lu, can you protect me?" Cui Yunyin looked at him pitifully.

Lu Can was startled. Thinking of the silver that was stolen from him, he said with an embarrassed look: "I may not be able to protect you."

"You can do it!" Cui Yunyin answered decisively.

"You're so awesome, there's no problem. You're the most awesome man I've ever met."

Lu Can's ears turned red from what she said.

Cui Yunyin approached him and lowered her voice, "Brother Lu, I am a weak woman and I have money on me. I am afraid of being robbed. If you protect me, I will provide you with food and lodging. Do you think this is okay?"

Lu Can's eyes lit up.

That's awesome!

Isn't this a security guard's job? It provides food and lodging, which is exactly what he needs.

Moreover, both of them ran away from home in order to escape marriage, which was also fate.

"Okay, let's go together."

“Yeah!” Seeing his agreement, Cui Yunyin smiled, her eyebrows curved, and there was a faint little ripple on her lips.

It was as if a stone had fallen into Lu Can's heart, causing ripples.

Cui Sanniang has a really beautiful smile.

He secretly sighed in his heart.

…

In the capital, Lu Li learned about this through the melon-eating system and almost laughed to death.

Qu Zhiwei was very depressed when she saw this. She was so worried about her son that she couldn't laugh at all.

"Your Majesty, Can'er has been away from the palace for a long time. Is there anything wrong with him?"

"Don't worry, Concubine Xian, nothing will happen to Can'er. And the daughter-in-law you've been thinking about has already met Can'er." Lu Li smiled slightly.

"What?" Qu Zhiwei was stunned.

Lu Li then told the story of how Lu Can and Cui Yunyin met by chance and then traveled together.

Qu Zhiwei: ...

Okay, okay, she let this boy meet Cui Yunyin but he didn't want to, and they ended up running into each other outside.

With Lu Li's words, she felt much more at ease.

Lu Li: "And I have sent secret guards to follow him all the time, so nothing will happen to him."

"Your Majesty is wise." Qu Zhiwei smiled with relief.

That’s great, she can now rest assured.

…

The runaway duo has been hiding from the Cui family.

But two months later, the two had spent all their money and the Cui family caught up with them.

"Miss Third, have you made enough noise? It's time to go back home." The housekeeper of the Duke's Mansion was helpless.

"I'm not making trouble. I don't want to go back and listen to my grandmother and marry someone I don't love." Cui Yunyin said decisively.

Unable to convince Cui Yunyin, the butler looked at Lu Can again.

"Sir, please stop pestering my young lady. My young lady is the legitimate daughter of the Duke's Mansion. Do you know what the consequences are of offending the Duke's Mansion?"

"You are not allowed to threaten Fourth Brother Lu." Cui Yunyin was angry.

What should Brother Lu Si do when the housekeeper reveals her identity and scares him?

Lu Can's eyes widened in astonishment, and he looked at Cui Yunyin: "Are you the third daughter of the Duke's Mansion?"

He remembered.

Before he ran away from home, his mother told him that the last person he saw was the third daughter of the Duke's Mansion.

"Yes, but I didn't mean to lie to you." Cui Yunyin thought he was angry and hurried to explain.

"Your name is Cui Yunyin?" Lu Can asked again.

Now it was Cui Yunyin and the Duke's Mansion's steward's turn to be stunned.

"Do you know me?" Cui Yunyin asked.

"You don't know me?" Lu Can asked back.

Now both of them were confused.

"My name is Lu Can, I'm six years older than you..." Lu Can spoke somewhat awkwardly.

The butler reacted faster than Cui Yunyin and immediately knelt down and saluted: "I am here to see the Fourth Prince. I am sorry for my previous offense. Please forgive me."

Cui Yunyin finally reacted.

The fourth prince?

Isn't that the man her grandmother asked her to marry?

She was surprised and happy at the same time.

I didn't expect that fate would be so coincidental.

"That's great, fourth brother, you are the fourth prince." Cui Yunyin was very excited.

After a moment, she realized that what she was doing was inappropriate, and she looked down at her toes with some uneasiness.

"Then, then do you still want to go back to the palace and listen to Concubine Xian's words to see her..."

she asked quietly.

"No, after I return to the palace, I will directly ask my mother to propose marriage for me." Lu Can smiled slightly.

Cui Yunyin's mind moved, and she looked up at Lu Can: "What do you mean? Who are you going to marry?"

"You ask even though you already know the answer." Lu Can smiled and reached out to touch her head.

"Of course it's you."

After spending two months together, he had already unknowingly fallen in love with this lively and smart girl.

Cui Yunyin's face flushed red.

"Yunyin, are you willing to marry me?" Lu Can asked calmly, but in fact he was so nervous that his hands were clenched into fists.

"I do!"
