Tearing the Prince's Clothes after Withdrawing Marriage
Chapter 541 - 540: Why, Can He Really Remain Indifferent?

Chapter 541: Chapter 540: Why, Can He Really Remain Indifferent?

Feng Wuya remained silent, only quietly watching Long Xinghe.

Actually, Ali had sent a letter to the nation to propose marriage, and he had known about it two days earlier.

It was just that Long Xinghe had not mentioned it, so he did not bring it up either.

Long Xinghe couldn’t help but smile wryly as he looked at the pair of master and servant, "Why do you look at me with such eyes? Are you afraid that I am still thinking of plots and schemes to forcefully keep you here?"

"Dare not!" Tie Xin hurriedly said.

Although he also wished to return to the Imperial City sooner.

But, Long Xinghe was just too good to the Prince; he feared the Prince would miss out on this lady, and afterward, never find another woman who would be so good to him.

Chu Qianli was indeed good, but Chu Qianli belonged to Prince Xuan.

Moreover, with Prince Xuan occupying Chu Qianli’s heart, there was no room left for their own Prince.

Comparatively speaking, Tie Xin of course hoped more that the Prince could be with Long Xinghe.

Long Xinghe had talent, was able, and had power; she could protect the Prince.

Feng Wuya lightly pursed his lips before saying, "Lady Long has retreated to guard Tengbei. Although Tengbei seems quite peaceful for now, who knows when war might break out."

"What will happen to Tengbei after you leave?"

"Chu Qianli and I have a three-year agreement; within these three years, she will not lead her troops to attack Tengbei."

"Ali is not a person who loves war," Feng Wuya immediately said.

Long Xinghe wanted to laugh, but the laugh was somewhat bitter.

His trust in Chu Qianli was one hundred percent.

However, Long Xinghe didn’t take these minor emotions to heart.

One gets used to it eventually, he thought.

"Wuya, your body has not fully recovered yet, and I can’t rest assured without seeing you safely back to the Imperial City myself."

"Lady Long..."

"No need to speak further. Even if you disagree, I will not let you return to the Imperial City alone."

Long Xinghe waved her hand, then smiled again, "If you do not like seeing me, I can simply walk at the tail end of the troop."

In truth, she felt somewhat downhearted, but she did not want to reveal that in front of him.

Nor did she want her own slump to affect his eagerly homeward-bound good mood.

"We will set out tomorrow. Rest early tonight," she said.

She bowed, turned around, and walked away.

Her departure was quick and carefree, without any hesitation or delay.

Tie Xin sighed silently.

He had never seen such a resolute young woman.

Although Chu Qianli was also tough, she was more like a young girl.

And Long Xinghe, being older than the Prince by several months, felt like a reliable mountain.

She exuded a sense of absolute security.

Actually, Tie Xin felt, a girl like that was more suitable for their family’s Prince.

After all, the Prince was without desires or demands, never knowing how to fight for power.

Tie Xin privately thought that only a woman like Long Xinghe could give their Prince a very stable and frightening future.

Unfortunately, the Prince’s heart was set on another woman he couldn’t have.

"Prince," Tie Xin began to pack up Feng Wuya’s belongings after returning to the room.

Some things just had to be said, "Prince, do you really not feel anything for Lady Long?"

How could the heart, made of flesh, be so utterly indifferent?

For the sake of the Prince, Long Xinghe gave up everything, it can even be said she poured out the whole world!

Had Long Xinghe stood with Long Tianliu from the start, the realm of Longteng Country might not have fallen into Chu Qianli’s hands.

Her future could likely have been that of an Empress.

Now, she can only retreat to a small corner in Tengbei.

All of this, because of the Prince!

Feng Wuya still said nothing, just sitting on the side, holding a teacup.

"Prince, even this cup was gifted to you by Lady Long. She specially commissioned it from cold mountain white jade; most toxins would reveal themselves upon touching it."

"Even the Doctor said it’s a precious item. One look and you know if the tea is poisoned."

Look! How much thought Lady Long put in for his sake!

Why could the Prince really remain so unbearably indifferent?
