Chapter 493 - 493: I Just Want Her!
Shen Lang touched his nose. He knew that this was a big boss game, so a small fry like him shouldn’t say anything.
He held on to his stinky younger brother, who was leaning over to play with Little Sweetcake, and prepared to obediently leave with his mother.
Unexpectedly, Yun Ran suddenly spoke.
“Eldest Princess, if you’re not busy, you can hear me out.”
Yun Ran knew that Xuanyuan Yu and Xuanyuan Qing had always been on good terms, so she didn’t want to cause unnecessary misunderstandings because of her background and make these people in the middle feel so uncomfortable.
Yun Ran explained her relationship with MO Beiyuan and the grudge between the Imperial Family of Wu’an and the soldiers who had died tragically in the East Continent that Bai Wan had mentioned.
“My mother is thinking for me, so she doesn’t want to expose my relationship with the Wu’an Imperial Family. I think her thoughts are not wrong, and she doesn’t have any intention of looking down on the bloodline of the Wu’an Imperial Family.”
Xuanyuan Qing was not an unreasonable person. After hearing Yun Ran’s words, her anger dissipated a little, but she still had to speak up for her brother.
“It was my father who started the war between the two countries. This debt should not be blamed on my brother! Bai Wan, do you know why my brother climbed to this position back then…”
“Sis! This is between her and me.’
Xuanyuan Yu had said those words to Bai Wan before. He had also questioned Bai Wan if the bloodline in his body had become a sin.
However, Bai Wan did not change her mind.
Therefore, it would seem like he was deliberately pretending to be pitiful and using those favors to force her to respond to him.
“From the looks of it, this choice is indeed the best for Xiao Ran.’
Xuanyuan Yu did not admit defeat. Instead, he made his final choice for love.
Xuanyuan Qing felt that he had gone crazy. “Then what do you mean? You don’t want to acknowledge her? Do you want others to say that Emperor Wu’an has no descendants?”
Xuanyuan Qing felt that she was about to be angered to death by this silly brother of hers. “Alright, it’s fine if you don’t acknowledge her. Then immediately find yourself a woman, be it a concubine or an empress. In short, you’re not allowed to be involved with Bai Wan anymore.”
Her words were so harsh. Why was her silly brother still unwilling to give up?!
“You didn’t locate her previously and waited for her to protect her, so I accepted it. But now that you’ve found her, she doesn’t want to have anything to do with you anymore. Why are you still being silly?! There are so many women in the world. Why must it be her?!”
Xuanyuan Yu did not argue much. He only said calmly, “There are so many women in this world. What does it have to do with me? I only want her!”
As Bai Wan sat behind him, her hands gripped the edge of the chair. Her palms were already drenched in sweat.
Compared to Xuanyuan Yu’s determination at this moment to protect her at all costs, Bai Wan felt that she was indeed not worth it. She was not worthy of his deep affection.
Xuanyuan Qing flung his sleeves and said, “Then just you wait. Give her another twenty years or forty years… Let’s see if your infatuation can move her.”
Bai Wan’s body had not fully recovered to begin with, and she had been enduring the cold wind and snow. At this moment, a mouthful of blood flowed out of the corner of her mouth.
“Cough cough…”
Bai Wan tried to suppress her coughing and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth.
However, Xuanyuan Yu immediately turned around the moment she coughed lightly and happened to see her wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth.
“Xiaowan… what’s wrong?”
No matter how cold he pretended to be when they met previously, the panic in this man’s eyes had already betrayed him. He could not hide it at all..
