254 He made me Jealous

While eating his food, Lóng Wei continued to tell Li Hua about his future plans. “For now, I analyzed what the enemy is like. It will be tough if we fight with him without holding any power. That’s why I want to become the Governor of Qinping,” Lóng Wei said.

“How will His Highness catch the person who tried to kill the Crown Prince?” Li Hua inquired.

“I have a plan,” Lóng Wei said.

“Your Highness, you can include me in your plan,” Li Hua stated.

“I would love to. But, currently, your help will not be needed. Perhaps after I become the Governor. We have many tasks to accomplish, so I will need your constant support and help,” Lóng Wei said with a wide smile.

“I am eager to help His Highness.” Li Hua was enthusiastic to help Lóng Wei.

“Why did you meet Qiu Mu?” Lóng Wei’s sudden question vanished the smile from her lips.

“To apologize to him. Your Highness, I understand that you do not like the Second Prince, but you cannot misbehave with him,” Li Hua sternly said.

“You should be respectful not only because you are the Prince, but also because a good human being is known for his use of words. Even if a human does wrong things, but eloquently with his words, he will be respected. I don’t want my husband to receive backlash merely because he sometimes forgot to give respect to his elders.”

.....

Li Hua calmly tried to make Lóng Wei understand. She truly wanted him to correct his way of talking, especially with the elders.

“Truth is always bitter. I speak the truth blatantly. It’s not my fault if people don’t like it,” he affirmed and picked up the tofu from the chopsticks. He ate that while Li Hua continued to look at him.

“I have accepted His Highness as he is. I don’t want him to change in any way. But I only wanted him to be respectful to his elders,” Li Hua opined.

“And what will happen with my false praise? The Second Prince doesn’t deserve to be a General. You don’t know how foolishly he acts. I only showed him the mirror. He is the son of the most favored woman by the King, that’s why he got the position of a general. If he goes for war, I bet, he will die and make us lose,” Lóng Wei pronounced.

“His Highness carries many prejudices about the other princes,” Li Hua said.

“I have observed them,” Lóng Wei corrected her. “Let’s eat first, and then we can converse,” he suggested to her. Li Hua began to eat. Once she finished, she dabbed her mouth with the napkin before drinking the water. The maidservant cleaned the table and walked out.

Best

“How is His Highness back? He has been running here and there since the morning,” she worriedly said.

“It doesn’t hurt like yesterday,” Lóng Wei replied.

“Come here.” Lóng Wei gestured to her to sit next to him on the floor mattress. Li Hua stood up and then sat by his side. Lóng Wei snuggled her close to him.

He took her left hand in his and caressed it. “I was furious when Shui Xiaoqing died. I shouted at the Second Prince because he must know he cannot be the General if he remains careless. You should not have gone to him and apologized on my behalf. I didn’t like it that, for my behavior, you went to apologize,” he affirmed.

Li Hua lifted her head slightly and gazed at him. “I thought that’s the best way to calm the anger of the Second Prince,” she said. “I don’t want him to plot against you.” The anxious look said it all.

“The Second Prince will not try to harm me. I am his life-saver. He will not want the world to know how he planned to kill me,” Lóng Wei said, and looked at the jade ring on her finger. He fiddled with it for a while before intertwining their fingers.

He flipped her over, and she landed on the mattress while he hovered over her. He caressed her forehead with his left hand. His eyes raked over her face, her cheeks, her plump lips. His fingers continued to brush her hair in the most gentle way.

“Li Hua,” he pronounced her name in his deep voice. “Such a beautiful name you have. Everything about you is beautiful. Every moment with you feels so special,” he added.

“Am I beautiful enough? I have seen women prettier than me,” she said.

Lóng Wei clicked his tongue. “In Lóng Wei’s eye, Li Hua is the prettiest woman,” he said and smiled.

“His Highness teased me in Xinshui, saying he loves to watch sensual dance,” she said.

“I never said I liked to watch sensual dance,” Lóng Wei said and smirked. “I did say that I love to watch dance. However, I didn’t go to watch the dance that day. You already know. It was merely to make you feel jealous,” he asserted.

“And His Highness succeeded that day,” Li Hua remarked. She recalled how restless she was the entire day. “I will also make His Highness jealous someday,” she mumbled.

“You don’t need to do that. If you do such a thing, I will kill the man who flirts with you,” Lóng Wei said. “I spared Feng Lao for a reason. I don’t like it when his eyes carry that type of look at you. Even earlier, when I met him, he made me jealous.”

His facial expression suddenly changed to an angry one.

Li Hua pulled him down and kissed him hard on the lips. “But I love His Highness, so he doesn’t need to be jealous of anyone anymore,” she said, after the kiss.

Lóng Wei chuckled at her actions and buried his face in the crook of her neck to kiss the spot right below her ear. He kept his body weight on his elbows and trailed kisses from the hollow of her throat to her chin.

Li Hua’s heart raced wildly in those few seconds, and her eyes lingered on his. “Li Hua, I love you,” Lóng Wei said. The smile never faded from his lips.

“Prince Lóng Wei, I love you too,” Li Hua responded, and downcast her eyelids. Her cheeks flushed red.

“Call me Lóng Wei,” he requested.

She lifted her eyes and bit her lower lip. “That’s difficult to say. I took His Highness’s name though,” she stated.

“Exclude Prince,” he told her.

“Umm... L-Lóng Wei,” she stuttered as he called him by his name.

“It sounded so sweet. Now, always call me by my name when we are both alone,” he stated. The next second, she was carried up in his arms and he headed to the bedchamber.
