Transmigrated As My Former Uncle's Sweetheart



Realization dawned upon Yaoyao when she learned that they were homing pigeons.

"And what would happen if I lose them?" she asked almost immediately.

"If you lose them, I'll have to head to Great Shang personally." Beitang You sighed.

Yaoyao made a promise when she heard this. "I won't lose them. Don't worry."

Beitang You raised an eyebrow. "Don't you want me to go to Great Shang?"

"It's not like that. I'm just worried you won't be able to get away from your heavy workload here," Yaoyao said innocently as she blinked.

Beitang You's fingers fidgeted. He wanted to hug her, but he had to restrain himself because there were many people present. 

"Alright. I'll make sure to be there on the day you come of age."

Yaoyao took the birdcage from Chen Jin and played with the pigeons inside. After that, she lifted her head to look at Beitang You and said seriously, "I'll be waiting for you at the imperial capital."

"Alright." Beitang You nodded and reached out to rub her head. "It's getting late. You should go."

"Okay."

Beitang You helped Yaoyao up the horse-drawn carriage when they were out of the city.

Once she got into the carriage, Yaoyao poked her head out of the window and reminded him, "Big Brother Beitang, take care of yourself. Make sure to rest and don't stay up too late marking your Palace Memorials."

"I'll keep that in mind." Beitang You smiled at her as he stood outside the carriage. There was heavy emotion in his eyes and he could not hide how much he yearned for her to stay.

At that moment, Long Yin gave the order to depart and the carriage began to move slowly.

As the carriage got further and further away, Yaoyao stared at Beitang You, standing alone where he was, and she bit her lips. She suddenly got up and pulled up the blinds and jumped out.

"Princess?"

"Yaoyao!"

She ignored the calls behind her as Yaoyao jumped out of the carriage without hesitation. She ran straight toward Beitang You.

Beitang You's handsome face turned pale when he saw her jumping out of the moving carriage. His heart almost fell to the ground.

When he saw her running toward him, he ran to her as well.

The moment she was close to him, he pulled her tightly into his arms.

Long Yin was not far away from them—he was about to chase after Yaoyao on his horse. When he saw the scene in front of him, however, he stopped his horse and frowned at the two people hugging each other passionately.

Hexin and Bao Yu poked their heads out of the carriage window as well.

"Big Sis Yaoyao can't bear to leave the Emperor of the Yan Kingdom, can she?" Bao Yu leaned against the side of the window as she watched them without blinking.

"It looks that way." Hexin nodded. She was a little surprised by this; she wondered how the feelings between Yaoyao and His Majesty became so deep in such a short time. 

"Being in love with someone probably means you can't bear to be apart from them," she said emotionally.

The corner of Long Yin's eyes twitched as he turned to shoot her a look.

The two little ladies squeezed into one window made them a comical sight. Their eyes were bulging as they stared at the two people hugging not far away.

Long Yin turned his gaze away and suddenly rode his horse toward the girls, giving them each a knock on the head.

When Bao Yu realized who had hit her, she quickly disappeared into the carriage.

Hexin covered her sore head and looked at Long Yin in astonishment. "Big Bro Long Yin?"

"Stop thinking such nonsense when you're still so young!" Long Yin said in a low growl. He pulled the blinds down and blocked their view.

Hexin was taken aback at the suddenly darkened carriage. When she processed what had just happened, she could not help mumbling, "Does he need to be so bossy?!"

Outside the carriage.

After Beitang You had calmed down, he grabbed Yaoyao by the shoulders and checked her up and down. His eyes revealed concern. "How could you jump off a moving carriage? What if you hurt yourself?"

"I'm fine. Really. I just had a sudden feeling that I would miss you greatly." Yaoyao hugged him around the waist and refused to let go.

Beitang You was both pleased and sad to see the girl already missing him.

He could not bear to let her leave as well.
