Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“You, you’re still holding my hand.” Yu Youyao struggled hard twice and cried again. “Let go of me. Let go of me quickly…”
Zhou Linghuai was worried that he would hurt her, so he quickly let go. “Okay, okay. I won’t hold your hand. Don’t cry. I’m not lying to you. l…”
“You’re bullying me.” Yu Youyao fell into his arms again and cried. Her weak fingers tugged helplessly at his shirt. “l don’t want to believe your words anymore. I don’t want to acknowledge you as my cousin…”
The veins on Zhou Linghuai’s forehead twitched. It wasn’t because he was angry, but because he was helpless.
The little girl was in a fit of anger and wouldn’t listen no matter what.

Or should he wait until she was tired of crying…
But!
Instead, Yu Youyao cried even harder. “Why aren’t you saying anything? People are all like this. You said that you wanted to protect me for the rest of my life, but you were lying to me. Yin Huaixi, you big liar.” She came out of her cousin’s arms and accused him while crying. “You really want to leave me behind. I’m already crying, but you didn’t coax me. In the past, when I cried, you would think of ways to coax me…”
“Who said I was leaving you behind?” Zhou Linghuai’s forehead hurt. He sighed softly. “l was still worried that you wouldn’t leave with me because you were worried about the Yu Residence.’
Yu Youyao was stunned when she heard this. She even forgot to cry. “Cousin?”
The little girl’s eyes were red as she looked at him in a daze. The tears in her eyes were still flowing out. Her pitiful appearance made his heart ache.
Zhou Linghuai took a handkerchief and gently wiped her tears. “How can 1 bear to leave you alone in the capital? What if you’re bullied?”
Yu Youyao looked at her cousin in a daze. She had probably cried for a long time just now and had shed too many tears. Even her mind was a little slow.
She had heard every word her cousin had said just now, but when they were combined, she suddenly felt a little flustered and did not understand anything.
The little girl looked at him with tears in her red eyes. She was about to cry.
Zhou Linghuai was worried that he hadn’t made it clear enough and had made this little ancestor cry again. “l indeed plan to return to the North in September at the latest.” Halfway through his sentence, he saw Yu Youyao purse her lips and tear up again. He was shocked and quickly said, “However, I plan to bring you along. I don’t plan to leave alone.”
He thought that Yu Youyao would not cry when she heard this.
Unexpectedly, Yu Youyao’s eyelashes fluttered and she threw herself into his arms to cry again. As she cried, she complained to him, “You, why didn’t you say so earlier? Did you deliberately make me cry? You bullied me. I don’t want to acknowledge you as my cousin anymore…”
Zhou Linghuai wanted to say that it did not matter if she acknowledged him as her cousin or not. In any case, he would have to change his words in the future. However, as long as he did not leave the Yu Residence, he could not say this openly.
Although he thought so, he was still very honest. “l didn’t bully you. It’s just that the time wasn’t right previously, so I couldn’t tell you.”
Yu Youyao’s voice was hoarse from crying. “But, Cousin, l…”
In the nightmare, the older Yao Yao was deserted and alone. This triggered Yu Youyao. On impulse, she exposed the fear buried deep in her heart.
Now that she had calmed down, she suddenly felt a little flustered.
Zhou Linghuai looked at her steadily. “You just have to tell me if you’re willing to leave with me.’
Her cousin’s gaze was deep, firm, and gentle. Yu Youyao’s lips moved, and she slowly lowered her head, but she did not see the gloom and disappointment in Zhou Linghuai’s eyes.
His lips tightened, and his expression was frighteningly dark.
Between him and the Yu Residence, Yu Youyao finally chose the Yu Residence and gave up on him.
That made sense!
No matter how bad the Yu Residence was, it was still where Yu Youyao had lived since she was young. It was her home. Old Madam Yu had protected her for 13 years. There was no reason for her to give up on her family and leave with him.
Heh, she said that she would treat him well for the rest of her life.
It was all a lie!
Zhou Linghuai’s eyes turned red as he stared at Yu Youyao. Did she think he would let go?
Dream on!
It was Yu Youyao who had disturbed him first and said that she would treat him well for the rest of her life. She could forget about escaping from him for the rest of her life.
Yu Youyao lowered her head and bit her lip. Suddenly, she looked up. “Okay!’
“What did you say?” For a moment, Zhou Linghuai thought that he had heard wrongly. The redness in his eyes was suddenly replaced by shock. Zhou Linghuai held Yu Youyao’s shoulder and looked at her forcefully. “Say it again. ”
“Okay!” Yu Youyao smiled until her eyes curved into crescents. However, there were tears in her eyes. Her smile was like a pear blossom with raindrops, gentle and moist. “Brother Jingzhi!’
Zhou Linghuai was overjoyed. He suddenly pulled her into his arms, and even his voice became hoarse. “Are you really willing to come with me?”
“I’m willing.” Yu Youyao did not think that the Yu Residence and her cousin needed to make a choice beforehand. “I really want to go to the North with
Brother Jingzhi and see the place where you grew up. I also want to see the Xie Residence and Quanzhou’s wealth…”
In this world, only her cousin and the Xie family treated her well.
She did not have to make a choice.
When she had the chance to follow her cousin, she definitely wouldn’t hesitate.
“Yao Yao!” Zhou Linghuai was very excited.
Yu Youyao said softly, “l actually don’t have any feelings for the Yu Residence. It’s just that Grandmother…”
Worried that she would go back on her word, Zhou Linghuai hurriedly interrupted her. “Don’t worry. As long as you agree, I’ll arrange the rest.”
Concubine Lu had come out of the Cold Palace. His arrangements in the palace had already been completed. Soon, the palace would be in chaos. At that time, the vassal lords would definitely rebel, and the rebel forces from all over the world would surface one after another.
The capital would become a troublesome place.
Yu Youyao smiled. “Okay, I believe you.”
At this point, Zhou Linghuai did not hide anything. “No matter where I go in the future, I won’t leave you behind. Don’t cry so easily. Your eyes are swollen from crying.” There was a lump in his throat. He swallowed his heartache and said, “It’ll hurt your eyes if you cry too much.”
Thinking of how unreasonable she had been just now. Yu Youvao was embarrassed and tried to explain, “1-1 didn’t mean to cry. I was just frightened by the nightmare.”
She pouted and realized that when she mentioned the nightmare again, she no longer had the suffocating despair in her heart.
Zhou Linghuai frowned. “You said previously that in the nightmare, you later married into the Zhenguo Marquis Residence?”
Her cousin’s voice was cold and terrifying for no reason. Yu Youyao felt that the exposed part of his neck was a little cold. She couldn’t help but shrink her neck and say softly, “l hadn’t reached adulthood at that time, and Grandmother had just passed away. The Zhenguo Marquis Residence was worried about the mourning period.” Seeing that her cousin’s face had darkened, she hurried changed her phrasing. “Heir Songs marriage is a big deal, so I suggested that we get married within a hundred days. A legitimate daughter just has to mourn for a year. When the mourning period is over, I would have reached adulthood..
