Even after they walked out of the main hall of Prince Yu's Mansion, Leng Yu still did not let go of Luo Lan's hand. His face was gloomy and his posture was so upright that no one dared to underestimate him.
He had only one thought in his mind: even if the emperor was in a high position, he could not hurt the woman who was more important than his life.
He took her hand and went straight to the back garden without returning to the room.
Perhaps, he was too depressed in front of the emperor just now, and he wanted to go to a place with fresh air to breathe.
"Husband..."
Following beside him, she called softly like a little bird.
Leng Yu turned his face sideways, and when he looked at her, a gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He pulled her to the stream, looked at the gurgling stream, faced the breeze, and said softly:
"Don't be afraid, Lan'er. No matter who you are, your husband will always be by your side. No one can touch you."
She blinked cunningly, leaned her head on his shoulder, and asked softly:
"Are you doubting me too?"
Leng Yu put his arm around her waist and held her shoulders directly, looking forward, and said softly:
"From the day I decided you were my woman, I never doubted you. It's just that I don't know how to prove you. But don't worry, no matter what, I won't let them hurt you."
Listening to his slightly sad words, Luo Lan knew that he must be very anxious at this moment. She herself didn't know how to prove that she was the country girl, so how could Leng Yu prove it?
Because what happened to her was so strange, it was no wonder that others would doubt her. Sometimes, she would even doubt herself.
She pursed her lips and gave a helpless smile. A breeze blew and her long hair fell on her face. He turned around, put his arm around her shoulders, and plucked away the loose hair on her forehead.
He looked at her with eyes as deep as a cold pond but full of affection, and the helplessness on the corners of his mouth was clearly visible.
She also looked at him with a bright smile, then raised her hand and pressed the tip of his nose, just like how she bullied him when he was paralyzed in bed.
He suddenly smiled, and held her in his arms with his strong arms, kissing her hair lovingly, and murmured,
"Lan'er, I really want to take you away from here, to a place where no one knows us, and live our own lives."
Listening to his slightly sad words, she felt a little melancholy in her heart. Although she also wanted to live the kind of life he described, it was no longer possible for them. He was a prince, so how could anyone let him live his own life in peace?
Thinking of this, she arched her head against his chest and whispered comfortingly:
"Husband, that's just running away. We shouldn't be the kind of people who run away when encountering problems. Besides, we are still young and there are still many people and things we need to face. No matter what it is, as long as we face it together, it won't be a difficult problem."
Leng Yu pursed his lips, held her arms tighter, and murmured softly:
"I know this idea of mine is too naive. I'm just too afraid of losing you. Now so many people are targeting you, I don't know what to do. I'm afraid that someone will hurt you and I won't know it. I'm even more afraid that you will suddenly leave me."
"No."
She raised her head, staring at him with her big, sparkling eyes. When her eyes met his, she said solemnly:
"Don't worry, my husband. I won't leave you. We've already agreed that no matter what, we won't hide anything from each other, and we won't abandon each other. I can do it, and I believe you can do it too."
"Lan'er..."
Hearing her words, he suddenly couldn't contain his excitement. He held her head with both hands and offered his cool lips to her...
Two people who love each other stand between heaven and earth, hugging and kissing each other as if no one else is around. At this moment, it seems that there are only the two of them in the whole world.
Acai, Ahong, Xiao Lingzi, Xiao Shuangzi and others who were standing not far away, saw this scene and turned their heads away, pretending to appreciate the scenery elsewhere, but they were actually laughing.
Their masters always like to be intimate like this regardless of time and place, which makes them feel both cute and funny.
After a passionate kiss, the two snuggled up to each other, standing by the pond that would be full of lotus flowers in midsummer, with mixed feelings.
…
After leaving Prince Yu's Mansion, Liu and Shui Chunhua specially hired a carriage, loaded with things, and proudly returned to Changliu Village, the place where Luo Lan had lived for sixteen years but had little affection for.
The small courtyard has been completely renovated. The courtyard wall has been replaced with a stone wall, and the house has been replaced with a blue brick and tile house. However, the woodshed still stands in the courtyard, which seems out of place with this tall and imposing courtyard.
This has become the best house in this small village. People passing by may suspect that the owner of this house must be very rich.
People who don’t know the situation would not imagine that this luxurious and grand house was obtained by Liu by selling Luo Lan.
Luo Lan's uncle Shui Youcai was just coming back with a bundle of firewood on his back. He seemed not to have seen the mother and daughter, and walked towards his yard with his head lowered.
Seeing this, Liu glared at him fiercely and said with disdain:
"Shui Youcai, you've been poor your whole life. I've told you countless times not to go collect firewood, but you just won't. Can you really stay in your woodshed until you die?"
Shui Youcai glared at her without saying a word. He lowered his head and walked towards the yard.
Shui Chunhua swung the handkerchief in her hand, twisted her graceful figure, raised her eyebrows and said:
