Gifted Bride of the Sinned Prince

Chapter 509 - 509 Beautiful in the evening

509 Beautiful in the evening

Xu Zifan asked Feng Lao if he got any message from Li Hua, who shook his head.

“Should we visit Prince Lóng Wei? He didn’t come to work either. I heard the ministers want him to be removed,” Xu Zifan said with a worried look.

“Huang Xi said that Prince Lóng Wei has refused to meet anyone. I think we should give time to Prince Lóng Wei. Li Hua is with him, so there is nothing to worry about. Also, it’s not easy to remove Prince Lóng Wei from the Governor’s position,” Feng Lao stated. Xu Zifan nodded his head and looked at the sky which was covered in clouds.

“Do you know why Prince Lóng Wei is close to Monk Yuze? Did Li Hua ever tell you?” Feng Lao inquired.

“I don’t know. Prince Lóng Wei hardly used to share about his life. He would stay quiet than tell. Even Li Hua didn’t tell me,” Xu Zifan replied.

“From the first time I met Prince Lóng Wei till now, I have seen how strong he is. But it was unexpected to me. I never saw him this devastated,” Feng Lao asserted. The rain began to fall when Feng Lao told Xu Zifan that he should go to see his wife.

“I will go later,” Xu Zifan said.

“You should focus on your married life more. Don’t you think so? You two are newly married and I noticed how you neglected your wife these days,” Feng Lao said. “Did she do something which angered you?” He inquired.

Feng Lao was well aware of Jingfei’s nature. He wondered if she got happy on Lóng Wei’s state.

.....

“You are way too much concerned for me. No such thing has happened,” Xu Zifan replied. “I don’t understand why you and Huang Xi misjudge Jingfei?” He muttered and wryly chuckled.

“You know well why I am speaking this way. You deserved a better woman than her,” Feng Lao said and he crossed his arms.

“You are wrong, Feng Lao,” Xu Zifan replied. “You should not disrespect my wife this way. I will be upset with you,” He affirmed.

“Forgive me. I did not have any intention to disrespect her,” Feng Lao stated.

“Princess Xiaolian is interested in you. If you get married to her, then I will tease you the same way,” Xu Zifan said and his lips twisted into a smirk.

“I won’t marry her, Xu Zifan,” Feng Lao confidently said and snickered.

“Maybe your destiny brings you to close to Princess Xiaolian,” Xu Zifan remarked.

“It will not happen. You know it well,” Feng Lao stated and looked away.

“Don’t tell me you still into Li Hua,” Xu Zifan said while frowning.

Feng Lao glanced at him.

“You cannot love her anymore,” Xu Zifan pronounced when Feng Lao didn’t respond.

“I know. I don’t have any romantic feelings for Li Hua anymore,” Feng Lao asserted. “How could you even think of that?” He muttered.

“You didn’t respond right away. It is good that you have let go of her from your heart,” Xu Zifan stated.

“She was never mine,” Feng Lao said. “The reason I don’t want to give reply to Princess Xiaolian is not my type,” he clarified to Xu Zifan.

“Then, at least tell Princess Xiaolian about this. She will keep longing for you,” Xu Zifan advised him.

“Is my silence on her love letter not enough to clarify her I am not interested in her?” Feng Lao arched his eyebrow.

“Probably not.”

They both heard Jingfei’s voice and turned to look at her. Xu Zifan wondered if she heard their conversations and it slightly worried him.

Jingfei looked at Lin Jie and asked her to leave, who left the pavilion.

“Princess Xiaolian will think that Feng Lao is still thinking about it. If you do not like her, then you should clarify it to her,” Jingfei suggested to Feng Lao.

Xu Zifan asked Feng Lao to listen to Jingfei.

Feng Lao knitted his brows and asked Jingfei if she would go to the palace, then she should answer Princess Xiaolian on my behalf. “I will be grateful to her if she tells the third Princess that I am not interested in her and will never be.” He then left the pavilion, leaving Xu Zifan and Jingfei alone there.

“Feng Lao went without an umbrella,” Jingfei murmured.

“Let it be. Feng Lao will not get sick,” Xu Zifan said with a slight smile.

Jingfei hummed and fiddled with her fingers.

“Feng Lao still doesn’t like me being your wife,” Jingfei said.

“Did you hear it all?” Xu Zifan asked.

Jingfei nodded her head. “I didn’t mean to. I wanted to see where were you and then found you here with Feng Lao. Forgive me for staying silent and then hearing your conversation with Feng Lao,” she stated and lowered her eyes.

“I am happy to have you as my wife,” Xu Zifan said and passed her a warm smile.

He walked up to her and asked her not to take Feng Lao’s words to her heart. “He is happy with my marriage. He even asked me to focus more on my marriage and give my wife enough time,” He affirmed.

Jingfei looked at him and hummed. “It’s cold here. You should go to your room,” She said with a concerned look.

“Hmm.” Xu Zifan held her hand which made her curious.

“Why don’t we stay here for sometime?” He asked. “If you are feeling cold, then–”

“No. I am fine,” Jingfei immediately replied and blinked a few times.

“We can go to the palace tomorrow to see Brother Lóng Wei and Li Hua,” Jingfei opined.

“Do you want to see your parents and brother? Are you missing them?” Xu Zifan asked.

“I do miss them,” Jingfei admitted the truth.

“You should have told me. I will take you there tomorrow,” Xu Zifan said.

“Thank you.” Jingfei hugged him as she wrapped her hands around him. Xu Zifan placed his left hand on her back and caressed it while smiling.

When she withdrew, Xu Zifan asked her if she wanted to go out with him in the evening.

“Where will you take me?” Jingfei curiously questioned.

“To the market. It is beautiful in the evening. I suppose while staying as the Princess you never got the chance to explore it fully,” Xu Zifan asserted.

“You are right,” Jingfei answered. “Since I am not a princess anymore, I can roam freely without any threats,” she said and brightly smiled at him.
