Chapter 167 Misunderstanding resolved
But she knew that Li Yueyao married him just to deal with Princess Jing'an.
He knew that after Li Yueyao and Feng Qinian divorced, Princess Jing'an had been very worried about Li Yueyao.
Li Yueyao didn't want Princess Jing'an to worry, so she hurriedly chose someone to marry.
And he became such a lucky man.
But he also understood that what was going on between them was more of a show, and he couldn't make it real, and he couldn't take advantage of the show to wrong Li Yueyao.
During these four months, he has been trying hard to control himself, reminding himself at all times to be clear about his identity and not to cross the line in the slightest.
Li Yueyao is a good girl, he can't do anything bad.
Li Yueyao said that he was her savior, but wasn’t Li Yueyao also his and Xu Weiwei’s savior?
Li Yueyao pursed her lips slightly. Does he dislike her so much?
She didn't know whether she should believe Su Yuan's analysis.
"Can't I come to you if there's nothing wrong? You... why do you always live in the study? But you have a maid in the study?" Li Yueyao suddenly teased him.
Hearing this, Xu Lin's eyes widened, "Wha...what?"
What is a maidservant?
Before Li Yueyao came into the house, there was only a servant and a nanny who took care of Xu Weiwei, and another nanny who was responsible for washing clothes and cooking.
There wasn't even a young maid in the mansion, let alone a concubine.
All his salary was used to buy medicine for Xu Weiwei, so how could he have money to support a woman?
There are many more maids in the mansion now, but they are all Li Yueyao's people, and he can't order them around.
Of course, he wouldn't be so stupid as to do something worse than pigs and dogs.
Seeing Xu Lin's embarrassed face, Li Yueyao pursed her lips and smiled, "Come and sit down."
Xu Lin walked over and sat next to Li Yueyao.
He couldn't help but feel nervous.
In the four months since they got married, they had sex only five times.
The first time was on his wedding night, the second time was the next day when he couldn't help himself and touched Li Yueyao again while she was still unconscious, the third time was when he returned home, the fourth time was when Princess Jing'an came to the mansion and he had to stay in the room, the fifth time was on his birthday last month, he had a few drinks and, because alcohol emboldened him, he...
He remembers every time clearly.
He thought that when Weiwei came of age, he would stay in the house under the pretext of being drunk.
From now on, maybe he can indulge himself once every year on his birthday.
He was satisfied if it happened once a year, and he didn't dare to ask for more.
"Princess, you..." Xu Lin hesitated to speak and sat aside waiting for Li Yueyao to speak.
It’s better to wait for Li Yueyao to speak first. He doesn’t know what Li Yueyao wants to say, so it’s better not to ask rashly, so as not to annoy Li Yueyao.
Li Yueyao looked up at him and said, "Husband, are you willing to marry me? We have been married for so long, and I have never asked for your opinion.
I was too anxious and ignored your feelings."
Li Yueyao lowered her head slightly, retreating to advance.
Xu Lin was stunned for a moment. He shook his head and nodded, "No! Princess, I will marry you! I am willing."
He was not forced by Princess Jing'an to marry Li Yueyao, he really wanted to marry Li Yueyao.
he……
In short, no one forced him.
Hearing this, Li Yueyao was delighted, and she seemed to believe what Su Yuan said even more.
Maybe Xu Lin really didn't dislike her, but he just didn't dare to get close to her.
Li Yueyao bit her lip lightly. "Seriously? Are you really doing this voluntarily? Not to repay our kindness?"
Xu Lin looked at her quietly, repaying Li Yueyao's kindness?
Actually, there is this reason.
Li Yueyao spent money and effort to treat Xu Weiwei's illness, and he really had no way to repay her.
Therefore, cooperating with Li Yueyao became his only option to repay Li Yueyao.
"I am willing to marry the princess." After Xu Lin finished speaking, he lowered his head.
Hearing this, Li Yueyao pursed her lips and smiled.
But her smile soon disappeared.
"Do you dislike the fact that I'm a second bride?" Li Yueyao continued to ask.
Xu Lin was stunned for a moment, then quickly shook his head, "I have never thought of it that way."
Even if Li Yueyao married three or four times, he would never be worthy of her.
How dare he despise it?
At most, he would blame Feng Qinian in his heart for being ungrateful and marrying Li Yueyao but not treating her well.
But on second thought, he was a little glad that Feng Qinian was not nice to Li Yueyao, otherwise how would he have the chance to marry Li Yueyao?
So, he also has to thank Feng Qinian.
Li Yueyao bit her lip slightly. She had never thought about it that way.
"Then why are you resting in the study and not willing to come and accompany me?" Li Yueyao finally mustered up the courage to say this.
She wanted to spend her whole life with Xu Lin, so she didn't want them to live in such a polite manner.
She also wants a child.
Hearing this, Xu Lin's eyes widened.
What is Li Yueyao talking about?
She wanted him to come and accompany her?
she……
Do you really want to be his wife?
"Princess, you...I'm afraid you'll get tired of me, so I don't dare to bother you often.
"I know the princess is just playing along, just wanting to reassure Princess Jing'an, so how could I possibly bully her?" Xu Lin explained.
Wasn't he afraid that Li Yueyao would dislike him even more, so he didn't dare to do anything rash?
Why is Li Yueyao still angry?
Li Yueyao: ...
It seems that Su Yuan's guess was correct.
She misunderstood Xu Lin! Xu Lin also misunderstood her.
If she hadn't mustered up the courage to speak out today, their misunderstanding might have continued.
Li Yueyao pursed her lips and continued, "I...since I chose to marry you, it's because I want to be a loving and harmonious couple with you. Who would want to play with you?
Part of the reason I married you was to reassure my mother, but...
I want to grow old with you, otherwise I could have chosen someone else, why would I choose you?"
She wants to choose someone who just wants to play around, so Xu Lin is not her choice!
Wouldn't it be better for her to control the person if she just picked a guard from her own house?
Why look for Xu Lin?
Xu Lin widened his eyes in disbelief.
So, Li Yueyao married him not just to reassure Princess Jing'an?
Did she really want to marry him?
How can he be...
Xu Lin swallowed and leaned closer to Li Yueyao.
"Are you telling the truth, Princess? I have to believe it!" Xu Lin's heart beat faster and his breathing became rapid.
Li Yueyao looked away slightly, her face gradually flushed, "Of course I'm speaking the truth."
Why did she lie to Xu Lin?
There was nothing about Xu Lin that was worth her deceiving.
Although Xu Lin is the deputy commander of the imperial guards, what does she want this power for?
She is the princess of Dongyu. Even if she does nothing, she is still a noble person and does not need to win over any forces.
Therefore, what she was after was always Xu Lin as a person, not the power in Xu Lin's hands.
Xu Lin excitedly hugged the person in his arms. If he had known this would happen, why would he have to endure and restrain himself?
Did Li Yueyao know how much hardship he was enduring? Facing a beautiful lady every day, but only being able to gaze at her from afar, unable to get close to her, he was going crazy!
Now it's all right! He will cherish Li Yueyao from now on.
