The General's Darling Is Delicate-Chapter 414 - 277: If Great Xia Regrets the Marriage...
Yelyu Lie’s temperament was not only impatient but also irritable.
No matter if he was dealing with his own mother or the soldiers, he did not have a shred of patience.
But strangely, when faced with the little girl he picked up from outside, he even felt guilty raising his voice in front of her.
Perhaps she was too delicate?
Hmm, women are most troublesome when they cry.
So, he just couldn’t be bothered to coax them.
Yelyu Lie found an excuse for himself.
Yet he did not notice that he actually had the desire to ’coax’ the little girl he met for the first time.
In the past, no matter which woman cried in front of him in the mansion, he couldn’t even be bothered to take an extra glance.
Let alone coaxing; not driving them away was already being polite.
"You speak first." Yelyu Lie lightly coughed, lowered his gaze, and continued peeling the egg.
Yun Chunnuan saw his large hands full of cracked wounds.
She couldn’t help but feel a pang of sympathy in her heart.
She instinctively raised her hand to check but couldn’t find the red circle on her right index finger.
As with the memories of the previous two lives, Yun Chunnuan did not have the Golden Finger this time.
So in the fourth life, it was indeed the Grandmaster who couldn’t stand it, and both the Blood Beads and the Storage Ring were arranged by him.
Now without the Blood Beads, what about the Storage Ring? Would her mother-in-law have it? Could it be activated again?
If she possessed the Storage Ring, could she contact the Grandmaster?
The more she thought about it, the more anxious Yun Chunnuan became, eager to meet Ayimu.
But her relationship with Yelyu Lie now was like that of strangers.
How could he possibly take her to his mother?
Then again, as her identity was the Peace Princess from the Great Xia Country, as long as she made a request, he probably wouldn’t refuse, right?
"What are you thinking about?" A deep voice came from beside her.
Yun Chunnuan snapped back to reality and saw the man’s face full of displeasure.
He seemed displeased that she was distracted in front of him.
Forget it, I must first confirm if Lian Qiao has Blood Jade; if not, the Storage Ring might not exist either.
Even if it exists, it cannot be activated.
She lifted her small face and smiled slightly, "It’s nothing, I just wanted to say thank you."
The girl’s smile was sweet, the corners of her lips lifted, revealing two dimples, her bright eyes curved into crescent shapes, making her incredibly cute.
Yelyu Lie was momentarily dazed.
He even doubted whether the little girl he picked up was really the Seventh Princess of the Great Xia Country.
Rumor had it that the Seventh Princess of the Great Xia Country was tyrannical, extravagant, and debauched, with not a single useful trait.
But she was sweet, cute, gentle, and obedient.
"Who exactly are you?"
He thought to himself and then asked aloud.
Yun Chunnuan’s smile froze at the corners of her lips upon hearing those five words.
She remembered the words she said to him before fainting.
’I am Nuannuan, your wife...’
Right.
If she were in his place, and suddenly a man appeared claiming to be her husband, she would surely think he was crazy.
Despite figuring it out, her heart still twinged with pain.
She longed to hold him and cry her heart out.
She wanted so much to tell him she was really scared! So very scared!
Afraid that the madman would find and take her away, and she would never see him again.
But she couldn’t.
She stiffly smiled, obviously trying to smile yet there was unspoken bitterness, "The Seventh Princess of the Great Xia Country, Yun Chunnuan."
Yun Chunnuan still remembered the first encounter in the ruined temple.
She hid under the dilapidated Buddha statue, and he, like a giant bear, suddenly barged into her world.
Wielding the only weapon in her hand, she stabbed at him with all her might, trying to escape, but stepped on a rock and almost fell, only to be caught in his arms.
Back then, he had asked in a domineering tone, ’The Seventh Princess of the Great Xia Country, hmm?’
Thinking of the past, Yun Chunnuan’s smile finally lost some of its bitterness.
Previously, she hadn’t treated him well enough, never even giving him a chance to explain.
So now, it was her turn to be proactive.
This answer was clearly within Yelyu Lie’s expectations.
Without much surprise on his face, he asked, "What happened? What about the Marriage Envoy? Why were you hiding under the carriage in just your undergarments?"
Yelyu Lie only found that the marriage envoy’s group entered the dense forest but never came out.
He sent people to search for the whereabouts of the marriage envoys, determined to find them alive or at least see their bodies.
There were none, not even a bone fragment left.
Except for her.
At this mention, Yun Chunnuan immediately thought of that crazy person with white hair!
He was hateful before, and now he was like a ghost from hell, making her feel cold all over at the mere thought!
"Hus... General Yelyu, if the Great Xia Country were to call off the marriage now, would you send me back?"
Yun Chunnuan did not answer his series of questions but instead asked this back.
After waking up, she felt she had forgotten something important, and now she finally remembered, which was precisely this!
Her husband hadn’t loved her yet, and since Ying Ce had brought her here, it was set in mind that he wanted her there.
If he could intercept her on the way to the marriage, he could personally come to demand her!
"Call off the marriage?" Yelyu Lie frowned deeply, "Are you regretting the marriage?"
"No! To become your wife, I will never regret it! It’s the Regent King of the Great Xia Country, he regrets it!
He killed all the marriage envoys using some unknown means, causing their bodies to vanish into thin air; that strange smell was proof of the bodies’ disappearance!"
Yun Chunnuan anxiously explained.
Compared to that madman and pervert, even Mr. He wasn’t as hateful!
"The Regent King of the Great Xia Country?"
This person’s reputation was extremely prominent on the Qingxuan Continent, said to be the most handsome man in the Central Plains.
Also very talented.
The emperor of the Great Xia Country was highly compliant with him, even in matters of state governance, listening to his advice.
The political marriage between the two countries was seemingly proposed by that Regent King, wasn’t it?
Now that the people were delivered to Bianliao, he wanted to reverse his decision?
Yelyu Lie scrutinized the girl before him, placing the peeled second egg into her porridge bowl.
Previously, when he heard people talking about the appearance and conduct of the Seventh Princess of the Great Xia, Yelyu Lie was very displeased, but to ease the burden on the emperor, he reluctantly agreed.
He merely accepted, not more than that.
There were plenty of women in his residence, one more wouldn’t make a difference; as long as she didn’t cause trouble, he would support her for a lifetime, providing her a meal was no big deal.
To his surprise, the first sight of this little princess quickened his heartbeat.
An inexplicable and deep sense of attachment came over him.
That feeling was so strange; he couldn’t quite articulate it.
Even though it was their first meeting, it felt as if he had known her for a long, long time...
Was it because this little princess was too beautiful?
The man kept staring at her without speaking; Yun Chunnuan grew increasingly anxious, "If he comes to demand me, would you send me away?"
