Chapter 6: In Order to Win Against the Plot, She is Willing to Cry

Long Shiyan was drinking a cup of water, but when she heard Long Zhentian’s question, she choked in confusion . Unaware of Long Shiyan’s reaction, he said, “The poem is good, but it won’t sound good in most people’s mouths . While the original artistic concept was for your beautiful aunt, it won’t sound good if just anyone recites it . In fact, it could be very noisy and annoying or sound worse than a rooster’s crowing . ”

“Pfft~ . ” The women in the hall couldn’t help but grin while the men roared in laughter .

Strange? Why does it feel like people were trying to boost the power of Long Aotian’s halo…

Long Shiyan took a bite of the pastry taken from the side of the table .

“Wait!” QingYu touched her head . “She doesn’t need to recite the poem . ”

“Thank you, Grandma!” Long Shiyan smiled; her little hand quickly picked up another snack and placed it on her lips .

“Yan Yan, why do you only listen to Grandma? Grandpa also wants you to recite the poem!” Long Batian smiled and looked at her . His granddaughter, like her mother, was so sensible and lovable . It was a pity that his son did not like violence and decided to take his family traveling .

Long Shiyan c.o.c.ked her lips and raised her head . She smiled . “Grandpa didn’t agree with what Yan Yan wants, Grandma did agree with what Yan Yan wants . So, Grandpa doesn’t deserve to be listened to . Grandpa wants to hear the poem, but he doesn’t even answer to Great-grandfather!” she said, pointing to the Long Aotian, who was still being held by Long Zhentian .

When Long Batian heard those words, he couldn’t help but widen his eyes as he blushed with a look of surprise .

How many years had it been since he had last listened to his father?

“Didn’t Grandpa lie within  Great-grandfather’s arms? How about you listen to Great-grandfather?” Looking at Long Batian’s expression, Long Shiyan’s face remained unchanged, but inside, she was laughing . Sure enough, the saying that a child’s innocent words would cause no harm was incorrect .

“Pfft~,” Long Aotian couldn’t help but burst out in laughter . Meanwhile, the group of women, who wanted to laugh, didn’t dare to . Suddenly, the entire hall was filled with excitement, and Long Batian felt so helpless at this scenery that he waved his sleeves and said nothing .

Long Shiyan did not speak and merely drank water, ignoring the joyous hall . At this moment, she suddenly felt a burning glare drilling a hole into her and couldn’t help but wrinkle her little eyebrows . She detected that Long Aotian was staring at herself . She raised her eyebrows, lifted her face, and looked at him without moving while pretending everything was normal .

A few seconds later, Long Aotian lowered his head and secretly beat himself up . After reciting a few Buddhist lines, he did not dare to look at her again .

Long Shiyan also looked away and acted as if this never happened . Right now, Long Aotian’s nature was not completely revealed . She must establish an image that she shouldn’t be bullied . Otherwise, if she became Long Aotian’s target later, it will be difficult for her to deal with him .

Know that in the original work, the previous Long Shiyan did not have her own anti-attracting ability . So for a long time, Long Aotian had no resistance to her . Under the influence of aphrodisiac, the intercourse naturally occurred and she became Long Aotian’s first woman .

In the original book, after the resolution, Long Aotian secretly regretted his actions . Seeing his pitiful appearance, Long Shiyan, without the rhythm or reason, comforted him and said that it did not matter .

When she read this, Long Shiyan couldn’t help but hold her head in dismay as she had a clearer idea about Long Aotian’s halo .

Therefore, she must put an end to Long Aotian’s protagonist halo as she didn’t dare to think about the consequences of failure .

After all, she was one of the many female members of the harem as the system always highlighted this fact .

Long Aotian’s test turmoil soon pa.s.sed and Long Shiyan succeeded in maintaining her image as a pure, innocent, quiet, and ordinary child . Today was the day before Long Aotian’s seclusion . At dawn, Long Yuqing grabbed Long Aotian by the collar and dragged him out .

In order to follow the plot, Long Shiyan likewise woke up early . She also woke Long Pingtian, who was unwilling to move out of his room, to come with her as well . In order not to let Long Aotian and his aunt have too many opportunities of meeting with each other, Long Shiyan barely caught up with them in front of the gate .

“How come you both came outside together?” Long Yuqing rose an eyebrow . In order to let the hope of the family grow faster, she wanted to take Long Aotian to observe the slave market before his seclusion so he could understand the cruel reality . However, she did not expect that these two children actually followed them .

Perhaps there wasn’t a problem with Long Pingtian coming, but not Long Shiyan . How could she let the little princess of the Long family witness such a thing?

Long Shiyan, should have remained carefree and without worries while indulging in the life of extravagance instead of going to see the slave market with them .

“Shiyan said that she wanted to go on a stroll to the market . She woke me up early in the morning so we could go . I didn’t expect to find you two here . ” Long Pingtian said with a smile, suddenly he thought of something and asked . “Auntie and Aotian, were you two also going shopping together at the market?”

 “Oh, Auntie said that I should familiarize myself with my usual life and see if I can restore my memory,” Long Aotian replied .

“Auntie can be really strange sometimes . She only allows brother Aotian to come with her, but not Yan Yan . Yesterday, she said there was no time to go out with Yan Yan, but now Yan Yan learned that she’s lying . ” Long Shiyan’s cheeks puffed as her large doe eyes were filled with tears . She seemed about to cry . If she could prevent the protagonist’s influence, she could swallow her pride and cry . But… perhaps the image she painstakingly built up had collapsed, or perhaps it will be reduced to nothing .

“Don’t cry! Don’t cry!” Long Yuqing became fl.u.s.tered . She really didn’t know how to comfort a child and not only did she panic, but she also wanted to console Long Shiyan . Long Pingtian also panicked but didn’t know what to do .  

Long Shiyan, a normally mature child, suddenly started crying . They didn’t know how to make her stop . You must understand that…in their hearts, they have never seen Long Shiyan cry . Even during her parent’s funeral, she didn’t cry and instead, had a blank expression .

In the end, Long Aotian grabbed several bunches of candied haws and handed it to Long Shiyan . She stifled her tears . Long Shiyan took a bite of the candies and continued, “Auntie is weird . ”

Long Yuqing began to sweat . After she had just wiped it off, more sweat came out again . She couldn’t help but squat down and bite her lip . Her jade hand reached out and patted Long Shiyan’s head . “Please, don’t cry . Auntie really was too busy for you since she had to go with Aotian . Auntie did not lie to you . ”

Long Shiyan was silent and chose not to say a word, but she was obviously pouting .

“Okay, okay, don’t be angry . Auntie will take you out to play . But be sure to be obedient and don’t run around . ” In the end, Long Yuqing had no choice but to make a compromise . It couldn’t be helped, Long Pingtian could only let this little girl come along . Speaking of this little princess, it was really difficult to make her cry . If the elders of the family knew that Long Shiyan cried, then no one knew what disasters would transpire .

Long Shiyan nodded and smiled .

The fact that Long Shiyan was pampered by the family was very clear . There might come a time when she will have to face the dangers of this world . Perhaps she will lose her life one day and because of her special const.i.tution, it will definitely become very troublesome for the family . Furthermore, there was also the issue with Long Aotian .

She wanted to protect herself and not only improve her own strength, but also use the surrounding environment to her advantage including her the family’s doting and the plot she knew beforehand .

She couldn’t let Long Aotian’s halo freely influence others and she also had to protect the Long family . Long Shiyan felt that this was a nearly impossible task . It was like…the whole continent was her enemy and her system was still useless .

She had to come up with a plan .

Afterward, one large figure and three smaller ones strolled around the city . They bought this and that while also having a good time . This morning was the happiest time that Long Aotian, as a modern person, had for the first time since arriving in this world . He was, of course, really happy .

Long Yuqing and Long Pingtian also rarely went out . While accompanied by Long Aotian, they chatted and laughed very happily . On the other hand,  Long Shiyan was used to wandering around cities with her parents, but… she still shopped as well .

When it was close to noon, the four people visited a restaurant to rest and fill their stomachs . Long Yuqing regained her composure and frowned deeply . Today, early in the morning, Long Aotian’s rising mood also affected her . She was unable to interrupt him when he was having a good time .

Plus, it was really hard to get away from Long Shiyan .

“Cough it up…” Suddenly, there was a quarrel downstairs .

“What’s happening?” Long Aotian looked at Long Yuqing with curiosity .

Long Shiyan did not speak; her face was tranquil and she elegantly sipped her tea .

“It might be an argument!” Long Pingtian said softly, but he had no intention of getting up from his seat .

Long Yuqing ate some of the meat dishes as she gently nodded . Her lips slightly parted . “This is truly the finest pork I have eaten . They managed to remove the pungent meaty smell from the snowy cloud pig’s flavor . Fat but not greasy, greasy but not fat . I did not expect that this restaurant would cook it in this way . ” She ignored the fight and spoke to herself .

“This young lady has an excellent ability . I didn’t expect that after taking one bite she could distinguish the ingredients of this snowy cloud pork dish . This younger brother admires her . ” A small servant suddenly came out and puffed his chest in pride . “This dish is the pride of our boss . As it was made with 108 different kinds of ingredients, even the current emperor can’t eat it so easily . ”

“If this lady wasn’t so beautiful, even she wouldn’t be able to try these dishes . ”

“Hey, where is your boss?” Long Yuqing asked the servant with a light tone . In turn, the servant was enchanted and unconsciously divulged information about his boss .

Long Aotian did not pay much attention to Long Yuqing and the servant’s conversation . He looked around and then said that he needed to head out . After Long Aotian departed from his seat, Long Shiyan tried two bites of the snowy cloud pig dishes before also chasing after him . However, before she took a step, she was stopped by someone .

“Are you okay?” A gentle voice rang in Long Shiyan’s ear . She tilted her head and looked up to find a beautiful woman watching her with concern .

“I’m okay . ” Long Shiyan gently shook her head and quickly stood up . “Hey, wait a moment! Little girl, if you run around too much, you might b.u.mp into people,” the beautiful woman called out with a clear voice but did not receive a response .

Long Shiyan’s actions were very fast because she must not let Long Aotian rush over as this event had long been within her calculations .

She must take advantage of every opportunity .
