Liu Shimei smiled faintly, a hint of bloodl.u.s.t appearing between his brows as he said, “I still have Grandpa, right? Grandpa, Uncle, and my Brothers are all very good to me. Don’t worry.”
“Oh.” Huangfu Lingyao nodded repeatedly, but he was not very happy. His face drooped like a dog’s drooping ears. “Your grandfather doesn’t seem to like me very much. Your uncle and the others don’t like me either. And that person… Your Ninth Brother almost didn’t let me in to see you!”
Liu Shimei was speechless.
Which family’s daughter was going to marry a man with a mental problem? Even her closest relatives would not be happy, right?
However, how was she going to face this problem?
When she turned around and saw this silly puppy looking at her with those eyes filled with loyalty, Liu Shimei felt that she would drown in those eyes sooner or later!
She could not stand this cute look the most!
Sighing faintly, she took his hand and said, “Don’t worry about others not liking you. Lingyao is so obedient. It’s their problem if they don’t like you, not yours! My grandfather and the others like me very much. They will like you sooner or later!”
As she spoke, the light in the little puppy’s eyes became brighter and more gorgeous!
“What about you?” he asked.
Without waiting for Liu Shimei to answer, he chased after her and asked, “Will you like me? Always liked me? Like me forever?”
If a five-year-old boy had asked her these questions, she would have said with certainty, “Yes!
However…
This was a 20-year-old adult man in front of her. They were once married and were even engaged. For some reason, he felt that he needed to answer carefully!
There was a sense of deja vu as if she might step into a huge pit if she did not seriously consider it!
“You won’t.” The light in Huangfu Lingyao’s eyes dimmed. “No one will always like me. They all say that my mother is a bad person, so they don’t like me. With mother gone, no one will like me anymore.”
Seeing him like this, Liu Shimei blurted out without thinking, “Who said that? I’ll definitely always like you, but you have to be good, okay?”
“Really?” He felt as if he had been hit by frost and could not lift his spirits.
The little puppy looked so pitiful. Liu Shimei frowned. Instinct told her that she could not lie to him, so she did not give him any confirmation. Instead, she suddenly said, “Aiya, the wound on my back hurts!”
As expected, it diverted the silly dog’s attention. He could not care less about the gloominess and hurriedly turned his head to ask with concern, “What? Should I call the doctor? Or should I blow on it for you?”
Liu Shimei thought, ‘Don’t blow on it! Who could stand the sight of you blowing on my bare back?! You still want my grandfather and the others to like you? If they see you, it’ll be strange if they don’t kick you out!’
“It’s fine, I’ll just lie down,” she said.
“Help me pull the blanket down!” she instructed him.
Huangfu Lingyao did as he was told and covered her with the blanket before she asked, “Then how did Ninth Brother let you in?”
It was impossible for him to not care about trifles!
At the mention of this, the silly puppy’s face revealed a smug expression. “Of course we had a fight. I won!”
How could Liang Yi lose to the silly dog in a quarrel?
“What’s the commotion about?” Liu Shimei asked suspiciously.
Although she asked an irrelevant question, she was actually thinking about it in her mind.
How did the Emperor know about Huangfu Lingyao hitting the Crown Prince? Huangfu He definitely would not take the initiative to say it. He did not want to say it, and his personal attendant did not dare to say it either. Then…
Could it be that the Emperor had planted spies beside the Crown Prince?
Or did he plant spies around Huangfu Lingyao?
Of course, this silly dog would not know about these things. It seemed that she had to be more careful in the future. It was to prevent some things from entering the eyes of people who should not know and bring more trouble!
“I told him that you’re my wife and not his wife. I kept saying it, I kept saying it, I kept saying it…”
After explaining how to win an argument with Liang Yi, Huangfu Lingyao reminded her of another issue.
“Wife, just you wait. That stinky father of yours actually dared to hit you. I will complain to my father!”
Liu Shimei raised his eyebrows.
This is good!
