Transmigrated As My Former Uncle’s Sweetheart

1708 Only Treat Her As A Younger Sister

Long Yin clenched his fingers when he heard this, He said with a calm expression, “Why would you suddenly ask this, Mother?”

“No reason.
I was just thinking that you’re all grown up now, and you’re also the Crown Prince.
The court officials would hope that you marry as early as possible.
Do share with me what you think your future Crown Princess should be like.
That way, I can help you look out for potential partners.” Lu Liangwei went straight to the point.

Long Yin pursed his thin lips slightly but said nothing.

…

Lu Liangwei turned to look at her handsome son.
The more she looked at him, the prouder she felt.
It was a mother’s pride for her son.

“What do you think of Xinxin, Yin’er?” she asked in a joking manner.

For some reason, she felt that Hexin was a good match for Yin’er.

Long Yin was taken aback and quickly frowned.
He disagreed.
“Are you messing with me, Mother?”

Lu Liangwei blinked.
“What’s wrong? Do you think Xinxin isn’t good enough for you? I think that she’s a really nice girl who matches well with you.”

“The Yan Kingdom is tens of thousands of miles away from Great Shang.
Do you really think we are a good match?” Long Yin reminded her about this matter.
“Anyway, I only treat her as a younger sister.”

Lu Liangwei felt it was a shame.
“That’s quite a pity.
I really wanted her to be my daughter-in-law.” However, there was indeed quite a distance between both countries and Yuan Xin probably would not want her daughter to be married off somewhere too far away.
To be honest, she would also feel the same way and would not want her daughter to be married in a faraway land.

“You should have given birth to another son if you wanted her as a daughter-in-law,” said Long Yin.

Lu Liangwei knew the boy had no romantic feelings for Hexin when she heard him say this.
She shrugged.
“Alright, just pretend I never mentioned this.”

The image of Lu Xue appeared in Long Yin’s mind, but he hesitated about mentioning her.
“What’s wrong? Do you have something you want to say?” Lu Liangwei noticed his hesitation and asked gently.

“I…” Long Yin was uncertain.
He wanted to tell his mother of his thoughts on Lu Xue to stop her from arranging a potential marriage for him with someone else, but at the thought of Lu Xue’s age, he changed his mind.
“I wanted to say that maybe you should show more concern for Yaoyao instead of wasting your time on me.”

Lu Liangwei was taken aback.
“Is something going on with Yaoyao?”

“You haven’t been paying much attention to her since she came back from the Yan Kingdom after such a long time,” Long Yin reminded Lu Liangwei.
It was because of what happened to Ji’er that he had not mentioned to his mother about Yaoyao and Beitang You privately pledging their love for each other.
Besides.
It was best for Yaoyao to tell their mother about this on her own accord.

Lu Liangwei nodded and said somewhat guiltily, “You’re right.
So many things have happened lately that I’ve forgotten to catch up with her about her time in the Yan Kingdom.
I’ll talk to her about it tomorrow night.”

It was not long before the servants returned with Hexin’s dress.
Lu Liangwei took it inside to Hexin and taught her how to use a sanitary belt.

By the time Hexin had cleaned herself up, Yaoyao had already arrived and was chatting with Long Yin at the table.

When she spotted Long Yin, Hexin was reminded of what happened moments before and felt embarrassed.

She fumbled slightly and felt awkward.
Her head was lowered and her face was red.

Yaoyao had no idea what had happened between them.
When she saw Hexin acting that way, she could not help teasing, “Xinxin, why is your face so red? Are you shy because my royal brother is here?”

Hexin’s face turned even redder, but it was inappropriate to be acting this way, so she tried her best to hide her embarrassment and act casually.

Long Yin glanced at her.
He could tell that the little lady was trying her best to put on a normal front despite feeling quite embarrassed.
Amused, he said in a gentle voice, “Don’t listen to Yaoyao’s nonsense, Xinxin.
She just loves teasing others.
Come and sit over here.”

Hexin’s heart skipped a beat when she heard him call her out by her pet name again.
Fortunately, her face was already red and no one could tell that Long Yin’s words made her blush.
