The General's Darling Is Delicate-Chapter 428 - 291: At This Moment, Ying Ce Has Waited Five Lifetimes!

Chapter 428: Chapter 291: At This Moment, Ying Ce Has Waited Five Lifetimes!

"Is General Yelyu’s temperament always like this?"

Ying Ce slightly frowned, seemingly dissatisfied with the Barbarian General’s unsettling demeanor.

"If that’s the case, I’m even more determined to stay. Little Seventh, do you welcome your uncle?"

Looking at the girl encircled by the man akin to a mountain, Ying Ce asked gently, smiling warmly.

It appeared that everything was left to her discretion, and if the Little Princess disliked it, he would immediately depart.

This made Yelyu Lie a bit anxious, and the large hand resting on the Little Princess’s waist involuntarily tightened.

Her disdainful comments about the Great Xia Regent King echoed in his ears, yet that undershirt and two letters left Yelyu Lie unsure...

"Of course, welcome. Since Uncle is here, why not stay a few more days?"

The sweet, tender voice sounded, and Yelyu Lie felt as if he was struck by lightning.

Even the hand resting on her waist slackened.

He stared incredulously at the Little Princess, catching the momentary glance shared between the white-haired man and her...

"You—"

"Junior Brother, people have come from afar, you should be more polite!"

Yelyu Lie’s questioning words were interrupted as Shen Ruosui hooked his arm from the other side.

Yelyu Lie: "..."

What did the Grandmaster call him?

Junior Brother?

Are they all mad? Acting abnormal?

Shen Ruosui winked, "The Princess and the Prince haven’t seen each other in a long time, let the uncle and niece have a good talk! I have something to discuss with you, let’s go!"

Yelyu Lie never knew the Grandmaster had such strength!

With one hand hooking his arm, she directly pulled him away.

Only after being dragged out the door did Yelyu Lie shake her off and angrily question, "Are you insane? That bastard has bad intentions towards my wife! Can’t you see?"

"Whether his intentions are good or bad is none of your business. She will leave sooner or later. Withdraw early, don’t go headlong into it.

As for that lunatic... Regent King, steer clear of him.

Remember, don’t prattle before him."

Only then did Yelyu Lie realize — was the Little Princess’s demeanor in front of that white-haired man just an act?

"Do you... have a plan?"

Shen Ruosui remained cold and indifferent, "None of your business, Lie’er. Don’t forget the instructions you were given. Let’s go."

Watching the two leave, Yun Chunnuan felt uneasy in her heart.

Once the demon she avoided at all costs, the one who separated her from her husband and son into different timelines.

Yet, she couldn’t show a single trace of disgust or anger, but even had to pretend to feel favorably towards him.

Endure for a moment, so that life can be peaceful forever! Never again to be manipulated by this madman or the person behind him!

Even more so to reunite with her husband and son, she must endure...

"Little Seventh, is General Yelyu’s temper difficult? Was there any injustice?"

While attempting to soothe her emotions, a serene, gentle voice suddenly sounded by her ear.

"Not at all, General Yelyu appears rough but is kind-hearted. If it weren’t for him, I might have been captured by bandits.

Even not knowing my identity, General Yelyu aided me with righteousness.

Rest assured, Uncle, he is a good person."

Listening to the Little Princess voluntarily mention the ’bandits’ incident made Ying Ce raise his eyebrows, "Bandits? Do you know who they are? The envoy from Great Xia disappeared within Bianliao’s borders, the Emperor is quite enraged."

These words almost made Yun Chunnuan retch!

She had never seen someone so brazen!

He was the bandit himself! Yet shamelessly asks who they are? Does he really think she’s too blind to see?

However, on the surface, Yun Chunnuan sighed, "I don’t know who, but that Lord He was truly despicable!"

She recounted, detail by detail, how the marriage envoy had mistreated the Little Princess along the journey to Ying Ce.

She also lamented the fate of the Chief Palace Maid.

Portraying the helpless girl who had just transmigrated, striving to embody the original owner, was performed to perfection.

Ying Ce originally had some doubts but was now further convinced.

This girl was indeed his Little Seventh.

It’s just unclear what went wrong, as the pill didn’t take effect...

"How did Little Seventh escape?" This was what Ying Ce was most concerned about.

He couldn’t understand how, in such a fleeting moment, she disappeared.

At first, Ying Ce thought Yun Chunnuan still retained memories from the past life and had vanished before him that night when he lost control.

But now, seeing her without that conspicuously bright red ring on her pale small hand.

Plus, her nervousness at the moment and her efforts to act like she was the Great Xia Seventh Princess intensified Ying Ce’s suspicions.

"Of course I hid! Uncle, you don’t know. That despicable He tried to violate me! In panic, I pulled my hairpin and stabbed it into his neck, not knowing whether he’s alive or dead.

I was afraid he might still be alive and seek revenge, so I flipped out of the palanquin window. There were more people around, but I couldn’t run far and had to hide under the carriage.

Later, I encountered the bandits. They were so brutal, killing everyone! The corpses disappeared mysteriously!

I stayed under the carriage until my body was so frozen, I dared not come out, fortunately meeting General Yelyu, otherwise Uncle wouldn’t see me now."

Apart from recognizing Ying Ce as the lunatic inside the carriage, Yun Chunnuan recounted everything that happened that day to Ying Ce precisely.

The truth mixed with lies is the hardest to discern.

Ying Ce was indeed fooled.

He furrowed his brow slightly, recalling the events of that day, puzzled at how she could hide underneath the carriage when Yong Ye had already inspected it.

Of course, he couldn’t directly question it.

Ying Ce simply felt regret; he acted too hastily, failed to grasp the situation firmly.

Though the man hadn’t died by his blade, he still startled her.

This time he had truly hurried over, unlike that time observing from a distance as she suffered.

Though knowing well the tormented Little Seventh housed a soul foreign to the one he sought, he realized if he had arrived earlier, she wouldn’t have suffered in this body.

Always a step too late.

Always.

No matter how many times they tried, always narrowly missing her.

Those gentle, water-like eyes were filled with complexity.

Pain and regret.

"It’s my fault... Since you left, I’ve regretted, but the bilateral agreement was already signed, I had to come personally.

Little Seventh, if you don’t want to, I will take you away, okay?"

The Little Princess gasped, seemingly unable to believe what he was saying.

"Really?"

Her eyes sparkled brightly.

Inside, they twinkled with longing.

In this moment, Ying Ce had waited five lifetimes!

He had dreamt of, if he were to take Little Seventh away, Little Seventh would no longer be resistant, but reach out her hand to him...
