1638 Father Would Only Dislike Him More

Long Yin pinched between his eyes when he heard this. “Don’t forget that Beitang You is nine years older than you are.” Why did all his younger sisters prefer much older men? Was there a lack of good men in this world?

It was fine that Ji’er liked Chu Qi. After all, there was a relationship between them that was different from others.

“Besides, the Yan Kingdom is more than ten thousand miles away from Great Shang. Are you sure you like Beitang You and want to marry to the Yan Kingdom?”

Yaoyao nodded confidently. “To be honest, Big Brother, I had been troubling myself over this for the past few days. I was also worried about being too far away from Great Shang and I wanted to reject Big Brother Beitang, but deep in my heart, I want to marry him. Big Brother Beitang is a really good man and I don’t want to wake up one day regretting that I had let him go, which is why I would rather gather up my courage now to make this decision. I had thought long and hard to come to this conclusion. No matter what my future looks like, I will be responsible for my actions.”

Long Yin frowned and did not say anything for a long time.

From his point of view, Beitang You must have gone through some underhanded tactics to get Yaoyao to marry him as Yaoyao was young enough to be tricked by him.

“He may treat you well now, but that doesn’t mean that he will treat you the same every single day in the future. If you married somewhere near to us, I can still stand up for you if your husband or his family bullies you, but if you married to the Yan Kingdom, I can’t protect you immediately if you are bullied or hurt.” He frowned deeply with a worried expression.

This warmed Yaoyao’s heart as she hugged his arm and said, “Big Brother, I know you’re worried that I would have a hard time in the future and worried about Big Brother Beitang bullying me. Don’t worry. I’m not a weakling. If that really happens one day, I’ll return to Great Shang and never step into the Yan Kingdom again.”

As he looked at his younger sister standing in front of him, it was the first time Long Yin felt that she had really grown up.

He rubbed her head resignedly. “Even so, I still hope you’ll think through this again. There is still time for you to turn back on this.” He paused before continuing, “There are many other good men in this world. There really isn’t any need for you to be with an old…” He coughed lightly. “Anyway, you should give serious consideration to this again.”

Yaoyao eyed him from the side. She was willing to bet that her royal brother must have wanted to say ‘old man’.

Big Brother Beitang might be much older than she was, but he was not really considered an old man.

“Big Brother, you shouldn’t be talking about Big Brother Beitang that way. It would hurt him so much if he heard you say that right now. Moreover, you’re the Crown Prince and you should have the habit of being kind with your words.” She could not help defending Beitang You.

Long Yin glanced at her and deeply felt that it was right when others said that a grown girl could not be kept at home.

Yaoyao was not even married yet and already she was standing on Beitang You’s side.

“He is old when compared to you. He should know it very well too. He won’t suddenly become young just because I don’t say anything about it,” Long Yang said with slight unhappiness. “Also, I’m already so unhappy with Beitang You, which means that Father would only dislike him more. It won’t do him any good with you defending him over here, which is why I’m advising you to reconsider this seriously.”

Yaoyao suddenly began to worry when she heard this, but when she remembered the close relationship between her mother and Big Brother Beitang, she comforted herself by thinking everything would end up alright because Father would listen to Mother no matter what.

It was as if Long Yin had seen through her thoughts when he reminded her, “Yaoyao, Father may tolerate Ji’er marrying Chu Qi, but he won’t accept another of his daughters marrying to a faraway place.”

“Big Brother, you have to help me when the time comes,” Yaoyao said with an expression that looked like she was almost crying.

Long Yin pushed her hand away and rejected her decisively. “I can’t help you.”
