Chapter 247 - Heartache
Long Muchen watched the little thing who was acting tough and confident suddenly become defeated . She even said a bunch of things that he didnât even expect .
These were the same words that Zhu Sisi said when mocking her .
Qian Duoduo really thought it was her fault and started to admit this to Long Muchen .
Especially when she said, âI shouldnât become arrogant just because youâre pampering me and I shouldnât be disrespectful to my elders . â He could clearly see her shoulders shaking .
Long Muchen suddenly felt a tight pain in his heart . He was just scaring the girl . Who knew this would happen?
He hurriedly cupped Qian Duoduoâs face . When he met her eyes, he saw her eyes becoming redâ¦
Her pitiful and miserable look was like a puppy that was abandoned .
Long Muchen suddenly felt his heart aching . He held onto her shoulders and lowered his head to kiss her forehead .
âDuoâer, this Prince said that even if you poke a hole in the sky, this Prince will support you . What do you mean by âbeing arrogant because Iâm pampering you and being disrespectful to your elders?â It doesnât exist at all for this Princeâ¦â
Qian Duoduo looked up and pursed her lips, clearly not believing him .
Long Muchen watched as Qian Duoduo stayed silent and he was anxious right then . He held onto her shoulders and anxiously explained, âThis Prince is mad not because youâre trying to earn money through making advertisements . As long as this Prince has what you want, this Prince will give everything to you . . Duoâer, Iâm unhappy because you keep on wanting to push me to other women . Duoâer, you want me to be with another woman that badly? If thatâs the case, youâll feel very happy?â
When Long Muchen said this, his tone became darker . It was indescribable, but there was a sense of sadness .
Qian Duoduo bit her lips and shook her head .
To speak the truth, besides herself, if there was another woman by Long Muchenâs side and expressed her favor towards him, Qian Duoduo would feel unhappy .
Especially when Imperial Concubine Lin mentioned Long Muchenâs childhood sweetheart, Princess Zhaoyang, she felt like there was a thorn stuck in her heart .
Qian Duoduo wasnât stupid . She knew that she already started to have some feelings towards Long Muchen . Especially the enlarged sense of fear she felt before made her come to peace with her feelings .
Long Muchen also said that there was a woman he like⦠but was the woman, her?
Even if it was herself⦠with someone like Long Muchen who held power over the army and was one of the most powerful men in Sheng Cheng Country, how could he possibly just like her?
In the end, wouldnât he have countless concubines and mistresses?
The moment Qian Duoduo thought of the dark days, she felt a sense of fear .
Yet, she wouldnât say that to Long Muchen .
The 21st century had a normal understanding of a married couple . But in this world where women were inferior to men, it was quite hilarious .
Qian Duoduoâs unusual reasoning forced her to automatically ignore the slight pain in her heart . She retorted, âI didnât want to push you to other women . I just want you to check out a few gentle and considerate women who are easy to get along with . I donât want you to marry a Princess Consort and then have to watch your other concubines fight each other because of jealousy . . . Do you know that women can be very scary when theyâre jealous? Plus, Iâm scared that you might feel like youâre in a difficult situation when stuck between your old love and new love . Therefore, I wanted to check out a few women for you⦠the common women are more kind and innocent, not like those delicate young misses who are arrogantâ¦â
