Chapter 918: Waiting for News

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Ye Muyu did not know if her brother was unlucky or lucky.

“What is the princess’s purpose? Do you want Young General Shen to change his mind about you, or do you just want to anger Young General Shen?” Ye Muyu had a headache.

“I know that he definitely won’t change his mind,” Li Ruyi replied.

“But I can’t accept this.”

“I have something I don’t know if I should say.” Ye Muyu was honest and did not dare to say too much. She could only ask some crucial questions from time to time.

“Tell me.” It was rare for Li Ruyi to speak her mind so freely. She also seemed to regard Ye Muyu as a dead person, so she did not mind her presence.

Ye Muyu said, “If there is a man who likes you, but you don’t like him, and he gives everything for you but is seriously injured, would you care?”

“Of course not. How can an ordinary person like me?” Li Ruyi asked matter-of-factly.

“Then what if the other party has a noble status and is also a Young Master of the Marquis’ residence?”

“I don’t like him, so even if he has done so much, why should I care? Besides, my status isn’t bad.”

Ye Muyu did not dare to say the rest of her words. She was afraid that if she said it too bluntly, it would irritate Li Ruyi. It would not be worth it if she were whipped.

After a long time, the room was silent.

“What are you trying to say?” Li Ruyi suddenly asked irritably.

“I dare not say.” Ye Muyu lowered her head obediently.

“Just say it.”

“Young General Shen’s thoughts should be the same as yours.” After saying this, she subconsciously moved away from the bathtub. She had already given up.

Compared to persuading Li Ruyi to come to her senses, she might as well ride a horse to get the herbs from the county town. Although it would be tiring, there was still hope of getting the medicine.

“You’re right, but I can’t figure it out.” Li Ruyi smiled sharply.

Ye Muyu blinked. What did the princess mean?

“So, what I want is not marriage at all, but to make the two of them unhappy.”

“Once I get married, I might not have the chance to make the two of them unhappy.”

“I can give you the medicine, but I have a condition to ask from Shen Qin.”

Ye Muyu did not dare to reply. She was not familiar with Young General Shen, so she was not sure if he would agree. This did not match her purpose of coming to see the princess.

However, there was no other way now. She could only give it a try.

She nodded in agreement.

The sky had already turned dark, and Li Ruyi would only go to the military camp the next day.

She could only take her leave from the Marquis’ residence.

When she returned to the rented house, she lay on the soft couch and felt extremely discouraged.

“Sis, how was it?” Ye Zhao came in and asked.

Ye Muyu sat up straight and waved at him. “The princess said she agreed, but she had to raise some conditions to Young General Shen. As for what conditions, I don’t know.”

“Looking at her intentions, I’m afraid that she wants to make things difficult for Young General Shen. Young General Shen might not agree to her rude request for the sake of Eldest Brother.”

Ye Muyu did not want to talk about the love and hate between the two of them. This kind of thing was troublesome for anyone who heard it. How could an outsider solve it?

“Sis, you look tired.” Ye Zhao was a little worried.

“I’m fine. I’m just tense after entering the Marquis’ residence. You should go and rest first. We’ll wait for Han Zhuang’s news.”

Ye Zhao nodded. He knew that it was useless for him to be anxious now. He could only wait.

Ye Muyu took a shower and lay down after she had some food that night.
