Quick Transmigration: Irresistible Beauty-Chapter 65: Unloved Daughter of Yue Mansion (19)

What was so important that Yue Ran had to find General Xia, someone who had never had anything to do with her, in his mansion?

Since Yue Yu himself can’t seem to pinpoint Yue Ran’s answer that satiates his curiosity, he decides to come to her boudoir this late at night to ask for her reason why.

Yue Ran chuckled at his words.

"Doesn’t Brother Yu know that General Xia likes Xue Lu?"

At this time, Yue Yu suddenly felt that even his extremely clever mind was not enough to crack the too-cryptic puzzle pieces called Yue Ran.

"So, what’s your point?" Yue Yu raised a brow. "What does General Xia’s admiration for Xue Lu have to do with you going to find him?"

"Brother Yu doesn’t seem to be very smart at the moment," Yue Ran said. "Think about it this way: His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, and General Xia both like Xue Lu. On one hand, I am chasing after His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, and on the other hand, General Xia is chasing after Xue Lu."

Yue Ran had broken everything down into small pieces for Yue Yu to understand her actions. Even a child could fully understand her words now, so hopefully the male protagonist does too.

"Both of us are working together to increase our chances of catching up with the person we like. Isn’t this such a good idea?"

The gentle smile on Yue Yu’s face suddenly turned a little deep with vague emotions.

"Who knew that you would one day be goodhearted enough to help make another person’s wish come true?"

There was a hint of an unknown emotion behind his words.

All Yue Ran’s actions were only for His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, Ming Chen.

Yue Yu questioned, "Doesn’t Sister Yu dislike Xue Lu, so why do you want to play matchmaker for her relationship?"

"Not to mention, to put her and Xia Zhan together of all people, no matter how I think about it, Xia Zhan is a very good candidate for a husband-to-be, and not someone that you would want to put Xue Lu with."

Yue Ran let out a soft sigh. "This is not something that I can choose."

Hearing Yue Ran’s words, Yue Yu stared at the girl with a contemplative look as if he had never known her before.

"If I want His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, to give up on his love for Xue Lu, I must make Xue Lu like another person," Yue Ran said with a self-satisfied smile on her face. "And that person that Xue Lu likes must not be ordinary; otherwise, Xue Lu would not even bother to look at that said person."

Listening to her own words, Yue Ran really felt that she had done a good deed that could save the world.

At that time, she and His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, will be a pair of Golden Boy and Jade Girl. Moreover, Xue Lu and General Xia will also be able to achieve their own happy ending together.

"You really think a lot about the Crown Prince." Yue Yu couldn’t help himself and spoke in a sour tone dripping with passive aggression.

At this moment in time, Yue Ran was too caught up in her own fantasy that she couldn’t hear Yue Yu’s bitter tone or silent jealousy. In her ears, Yue Yu’s words were a sincere compliment.

"That’s natural; His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, is benevolent, kindhearted, rich, and handsome; if I don’t like him, then who else am I supposed to like?"

Her eyes took on a dreamy expression; however, her indulgence in a daydream was broken by Yue Yu’s words that left her baffled.

She could not believe he actually said it.

"Am I not a good candidate for a husband-to-be? More than half of the noble young ladies in the capital are interested in me."

Yet his words were not a lie.

Yue Yu was indeed the most sought-after candidate out of the four famous noblemen in the capital.

Then again, she was not interested in someone as fake as Yue Yu.

"So what if Brother Yu is a good candidate for a husband-to-be?"

Yue Ran folded her legs and leaned back with the firm support of both of her hands.

"All those noble young ladies in the capital were just deceived by the mask you have currently donned."

She looked straight into Yue Yu’s eyes.

"If you did one day remove it in front of others, would there really be people who would stay interested in you?"

Yue Ran’s lips rose in a shallow arc, and her eyes sparkled with laughter.

"All I could think of was them running as far away from your presence as possible."

Sure enough, Yue Yu went silent.

He had never once removed his mask in front of others other than Yue Ran, so how would he actually know if others would be frightened and run away from him or not?

But this little sister of his could so easily change from a little, adorable kitten into a ferocious tiger.

Nonetheless, she’s adorable.

He could only admit that he likes her just the way she is, with all her enthusiasm, fire, and unique character. He especially likes her one-minded focus and fervor towards the person she really likes.

It would even be better if it was directed at him.

Wait—did he just admit that he likes Yue Ran in his heart?

No, impossible!

He must suppress this uncontrollable feeling of his—one that burns and spreads like fire on oil!

Yue Yu took several steps back in panic, then turned around and walked out of Yue Ran’s boudoir and out into her courtyard with very quick steps, as if he were escaping something frightening.

He was indeed escaping something frightening.

He was escaping from those feelings he had harbored for Yue Ran—ones that he did not want to face.

Those feelings should not have existed in the first place!

Yue Ran raised a brow at Yue Yu’s fleeing back.
