1605 Wanted Her To Back Off On Her Own Accord

Hexin and Yuan You straightened up and stood by the side.

Yuan You watched as the bright, yellow corner of his robes fluttered in front of her. She worked up the courage to lift her head to take a look, but Hexin noticed this and quickly pulled her down.

She turned to glance at Hexin in confusion.

Hexin sighed and shook her head at Yuan You, hinting at her not to act so inappropriately.

“There is no need for both of you to be so reserved. Weren’t you having fun chatting with Princess Yaoyao before I arrived? You may continue as you were.” Beitang You’s tone softened when he saw how uncomfortable they felt.

Yaoyao had only been in the Yan Kingdom for a few months. It was just as well to allow this because she would be more willing to stay.

Hexin was a little surprised. She never expected His Majesty to be so friendly. Even though she frequently saw him during palace banquets, they had never really talked to each other. Her impression of His Majesty was cold and distant. Besides possessing the dignified persona of an Emperor, there was something about him that pushed people away.

No one had really dared to act impudently in front of the Emperor.

She could not help glancing at Yaoyao.

Yaoyao could also tell how uncomfortable they were. She smiled and comforted them, “There really is no need to be so reserved. Just pretend he doesn’t exist.”

Chen Jin gave a light cough. Only Princess Yaoyao would dare request others to pretend His Majesty did not exist.

Hexin laughed dryly. “There is no need for you to pay so much attention to us, Princess.”

Yaoyao turned to say to Beitang You, “If there isn’t anything important, you should leave. They won’t talk freely with you around.”

Beitang You looked deeply at her. “Do you want me to leave that much?”

“Not really. It’s just that they are feeling uncomfortable with you sticking around,” Yaoyao said honestly. Actually, she understood that as an Emperor, he would strike fear in the heart of others no matter how warm his personality was.

It was just like with Aunt Qingyuan. It has been so many years, but whenever Father was around, she would suddenly become quiet despite being a chatty person. It was like a mouse seeing a cat and getting immobilized by fear.

Hexin and Yuan You widened their eyes at her.

She had actually dared to speak to His Majesty in that manner, and yet, His Majesty did not look like he was unhappy about it.

Beitang You pinched Yaoyao’s cheek. “If you feel that way, I’ll leave.”

“Alright. You should leave.” Yaoyao nodded.

Hexin breathed a sigh of relief after Beitang You left.

She was about to say something when she noticed Yuan You staring longingly in the direction His Majesty had left.

“Youyou?” She bumped Yuan You on the arm.

Yuan You snapped out of it and forced a smile on her face. She looked at Yaoyao and hesitated before asking, “Big Sis Yaoyao, His Majesty treats you really well.”

“He does treat me quite well.” Yaoyao nodded. She admitted to this.

Besides her family, Beitang You treated her the best.

Yuan You said enviously, “It must be really nice for you to be with His Majesty every day.”

Yaoyao paused before correcting her. “It’s only for a time. I’ll be returning to Great Shang after a while.”

Yuan You was surprised. “Big Sis Yaoyao is returning to Great Shang? Why?”

Yaoyao burst out laughing. “Great Shang is my home. It’s only natural for me to return.”

Yuan You replied with slight embarrassment, “That’s right. I’ve forgotten about that.”

Yaoyao suddenly decided something when she saw Yuan You looking a little relieved. She pressed her lips and said, “But I might return to the Yan Kingdom again soon.”

Yuan You looked at her curiously. “Why?”

“Because Big Brother Beitang wants me to marry me and make me his Empress.” Yaoyao blinked. She did not dislike Yuan You but for some reason, when she saw the way Yuan You looked at Beitang You with obvious admiration, she felt a little uncomfortable and wanted Yuan You to back off on her own accord.
