Transmigrated As My Former Uncle's Sweetheart



"It's fine. After your wedding with His Majesty, you can leave the Palace and visit me if you feel bored. Or, I could go to the Palace to accompany you." Hexin could tell that Yaoyao was feeling a little insecure and consoled her some more.

"It's good to have you here, Xinxin." Yaoyao sighed gratefully. "It's a promise, then. You have to visit me often."

"Of course." Hexin nodded.

Long Yin leaned against the pillar under the corridor outside of the room as he listened to the gentle voices of the girls chatting inside. His eyes, deep and mysterious as the ocean, were looking far out into the skyline. He felt like he had been transported back two years ago, to that amorously confusing night.

Clatter. He heard the soft sound of the door being closed behind him. Long Yin snapped out of his thoughts but did not turn back to look. "Is Yaoyao asleep?"

Hexin closed the room door gently. When she heard the familiar voice of the young man behind her, she stiffened. She did not turn around either as she gave a soft, affirmative grunt as an answer.

They were silent. There was an awkward quietness between them.

It took quite a while for Hexin to finally gather up the courage to turn around.

However, she did not expect Long Yin to turn around at the same moment.

They met each other's eyes unexpectedly. It was an embarrassing and awkward moment for them.

After a long silence, Hexin finally said, "If there is nothing else, I'll be returning, Big Bro Long Yin. I'll visit Big Sis Yaoyao again tomorrow."

"Alright," Long Yin replied.

Hexin pursed her lips and walked past him.

Long Yin was silent for a while as he watched the young woman walk away with light steps. He clenched his fingers and finally strode out to chase after her.

"Hexin."

Hexin paused in her steps and turned back. "Is there anything you need, Big Bro Long Yin?"

Long Yin was slightly taken aback by the young woman's cold and distant manner.

It looked like she had not forgotten what happened a year ago.

He felt very guilty over what that.

"Hexin…" He contemplated something and lifted his gaze to look at her. He said, "About what happened a year ago, I went too far and scared you."

When Hexin heard him suddenly mention this, it made her heart thump and she took a step backward.

It took her a while to finally calm down. "What are you talking about, Big Bro Long Yin? I don't remember anything like that. My mother is still waiting for me back at the mansion and I shouldn't stay long. I'll take my leave first." With that, she quickly ran off—it was clear that she did not want to listen to anything more Long Yin had to say.

Long Yin's eyes turned dim with regret as he watched the young woman run away.

He turned and punched a pillar in the corridor.

Two days later, it was Yaoyao and Beitang You's wedding.

The wedding was a grand ceremony with lots of fanfare.

After going through all the procedures, Yaoyao was exhausted.

The ceremony was considered over after the removal of the wedding veil and drinking of wedlock wine.

Beitang You waved away the servants who were there to serve and helped Yaoyao to the dressing table. He personally helped to remove the heavy Phoenix coronet from her head and then let her hair down.

Yaoyao bit her lips as she watched the man through the mirror. He was also wearing a bright red robe like she was. She asked hesitantly, "Don't you need to take care of the guests at the banquet?"

"There is no hurry for that." Beitang You look a the pink-cheeked woman in the mirror and smiled as he reached out to unfasten her belt.

Yaoyao took in a sharp breath when she saw this and quickly clasped the belt. "What are you doing?"

Beitang You gave her a deep yet meaningful look. "Aren't you tired of wearing such a heavy formal dress?"

"I don't need your help with this." Yaoyao stood up from the stool and quickly retreated. "Go on and take care of the guests. There's no need to bother yourself with me."

"Are you sure you don't need my help?" Beitang You leaned against the dressing table and looked at her calmly.

"Yes. I don't need your help." Yaoyao shook her head decisively.

"Alright. I was actually thinking about servicing you and attending to you during your bath," Beitang You said with slight regret.

Yaoyao blushed and her heart beat wildly when she heard this. Beitang You was such a hooligan. He finally revealed his true intentions!
