Gifted Bride of the Sinned Prince

175 Stop being emotional first

Lóng Wei left the chamber after Li Hua fell asleep. He could not discuss regarding Tang Zhaodang while Li Hua was present. As per his order, Eunuch Qian He already asked Mingquan, Huang Xi, and Xu Zifan to come to the private chamber in the cold palace.

Upon arriving, Huang Xi and Xu Zifan stood up from their respective seats.

“Please forgive me for keeping you all waiting until late,” Lóng Wei said as he sat in one of the large chairs.Huang Xi and Xu Zifan also took their respective seats.

“What happened between Brother Lóng Wei and Shui Feng Lao?” Mingquan asked.

“Your Highness, did you punch Feng Lao and kick him to the floor? Did His Highness threaten Feng Lao that he would burn him alive? This was what the servants said before Shui Xiaoqing. He wasn’t happy, and he said he would complain about it to the King,” Huang Xi said with a worried look.

“Yes. Shui Xiaoqing didn’t look happy after that incident. Feng Lao also said that Brother Lóng Wei talked rudely with him and then disrespected him,” Mingquan said.

“Did I suppose to worship him?” Lóng Wei asked them. “I have seen Li Hua in pain because of him. Because of him, she had to suffer so much. What if she had been dead by now even before I could reach her? I wanted to kill him right away, but I stopped myself. He married, has a wife, living happily with her while he put Li Hua into a life which she never deserved.” Lóng Wei’s anger again burst out. “Let Xiaoqing inform the King,” he said, looking at Xu Zifan.

“For some reason, I am hesitant to tell Li Hua about the Shui family. I do not want her to face them anymore,” Lóng Wei said and sighed.

“Let’s keep this topic aside. I have another important matter to discuss,” Lóng Wei said. “I met Tang Zhaodang. He recognized Li Hua yesterday. Today, when I left Shui Residence, we met.”

.....

“Tang Zhaodang, Feng Lao, I, and my late younger brother were close friends. How is he?” Xu Zifan asked.

“He is desperate to know about the Xu family. However, I refused. I gave him a task. Let’s see if he fulfils it or not,” Lóng Wei stated.

“If Tang Zhaodang saw the Sister-in-law, then why did he not tell Feng Lao?” Minquan intervened and raised a doubt.

“I do not know. But it is good for us,” Lóng Wei answered. “The Shui Family covered that night’s incident very well. Feng Lao betrayed his friends too. However, it is still unknown why he let Li Hua go that night,” Lóng Wei said and his eyebrows furrowed.

“That’s the biggest mystery to solve,” Xu Zifan said. “Your Highness, I don’t want to meet Tang Zhaodang,” he expressed his desire.

“Why?”

“I cannot trust him. I am afraid to trust people after what Feng Lao did to me. Tang Zhaodang is also his friend. “Who knows he’s with him and attempting to harm my sister?” Xu Zifan claimed.He recalled how strong his friendship was with these two people. He could not trust him anymore.

“Xu Zifan is right. What if Tang Zhaodang tells Feng Lao? Brother Lóng Wei should not have taken the Sister-in-law out. Words spread faster than any other thing,” Mingquan opined.

“Then, the enemy will make the worst move. Feng Lao will search for Li Hua. Currently, my fear is how to tell Li Hua. I have these conflicted thoughts. I want to tell her, but at the same time, I do not want to,” Lóng Wei stated, rubbing his fingers against each other.

Li Hua heard their entire conversation. She could not believe her ears. The Shui Family betrayed them, and Feng Lao was a part of it. He married another woman, and it brought tears to her eyes.

“I want to see Feng Lao,” she said, and came forward from behind the pillar.

“Li Hua!” Lóng Wei got anxious to see her and walked toward her while the others stood up from their respective seats. Li Hua had clenched her fists and her eyes were filled with tears.

“I want to see him, right now,” Li Hua urged Lóng Wei and finally peered into his eyes. Her eyes turned red, and tears streamed down her cheeks.

Xu Zifan came forward and told Li Hua to calm down.

“I am calm, Elder First Brother. I didn’t expect my brother to lie to me when I asked about Feng Lao.” She sounded angry and betrayed. “They killed our family. How could my brother stay quiet? Why did he not kill Feng Lao right away when he found out about him?” Li Hua shouted at him. She had lost her conscience at that moment. She forgot that Xu Zifan was her eldest brother.

Xu Zifan lowered his gaze to her. “Your brother could not do that,” he said in a low voice.

“That’s why I will do it now,” Li Hua pronounced.

“Are you sure? Do you think you can go there?” Lóng Wei intervened this time.

“His Highness should not talk to me. He has no right to converse with me. He lied to me and kept lying. I asked him numerous times about Feng Lao. However, he decided to lie.” Li Hua was disheartened by him. He promised her many things, yet he hid the truth from her.

“Li Hua, don’t speak this way,” Xu Zifan told her. She turned and decided to leave when Lóng Wei caught her arm.

“Where are you leaving without listening to me?” Lóng Wei inquired.

Li Hua turned to look at him and asked him to leave her arm.

“I won’t. You will go to the Shui Residence, and then what? Are you daring enough to kill him the moment you see him? Do you think that the soldiers present there will spare you?” Lóng Wei asked her several questions.

“Why does His Highness always doubt me? He thinks I need him all the time,” Li Hua remarked.

“Li Hua, you should not speak to-”

“Let her speak. I want to know what is in her mind,” Lóng Wei stopped Xu Zifan from intervening between them.

“You always cry. Will you go in front of him with this crying face? Stop being emotional first,” Lóng Wei reprimanded her.
