Transmigrated As My Former Uncle’s Sweetheart

u smiled at her.

“Hey, you’re the ruler of a kingdom.
How could you believe in such a thing?” Yaoyao said contemptuously.

“Before I met you, I didn’t believe in fate either, but after meeting you, I came to believe in it—and I’m willing to do so, too.” The corners of Beitang You’s lips turned up.
After a pause, his voice deepened.
“Yaoyao, you’re going to come of age soon, and you’re going to get married someday too.
Can you guarantee that you’ll meet someone better than me—someone who will love and accept you more than I will? If not, you’re better off choosing me.”

Yaoyao was unconvinced.
“I wouldn’t be too sure about that.
Maybe I’ll meet someone a hundred or thousand times better than you.”

“Really?” Narrowing his eyes, Beitang You suddenly pinned her against the pillar behind her.

“O-of course!” Yaoyao refused to admit defeat.

Seriously—this man was so full of himself!

“At least I can find someone younger than you.”

“Men younger than me don’t know how to pamper women.
In fact, you might have to tolerate their antics,” Beitang You said dismissively.

Yaoyao, “…”

“Marry me—I’ll be good to you and only you for the rest of my life.
What’s more, you’ll be my one and only woman forever, just like how your father treats your mother,” Beitang You said gently.

Beitang You was at his wits’ end.
After everything he said, this girl was still so cool-headed, which surprised and frustrated him at the same time.
“Well, a person’s heart will change if it’s bound to, no matter how close your parents are.
I know you might not believe me no matter what I promise now, but marriage has always been a huge gamble, Yaoyao—so do you dare to take this gamble with me?”

Yaoyao was ridden with conflict.
“You’re right, but I can’t answer you right away.
Can you give me some time? I need to think about it.”

Marriage was for life.
She could not say yes so carelessly.
