Slowly Deep Love

Li Hengtu sat on the edge of the bed, took out the imperial edict again, and read it again and again in silence.

He lacks confidence.

The Marquis was watching with eager eyes, and soon Li Hengan arrived, and three men surrounded Yue Weiwei!

Li Hengtu felt exhausted and thought he should send her back to the imperial capital as soon as possible.

He decided to explain the situation to Li Yancheng and send Yue Weiwei away immediately.

As soon as I went out, I saw Li Yancheng's back. He and Yue Weiwei were standing not far from the door of the inn. The two were talking and smiling at each other.

Li Hengtu's heart immediately rose to his throat.

He went to great lengths to obtain the imperial edict granting marriage. Now, he is faced with a tiger in front and a wolf behind. Yue Weiwei attracts everyone around her like a prey.

He clenched his fists and a terrible thought came to his mind.

After noon, Li Hengtu returned to the inn from outside. He personally cooked a bowl of light sweet soup for Yue Weiwei.

Standing in front of Yue Weiwei's door, Li Hengtu looked down at the sweet soup, his face showing a solemn expression, but in the end he knocked on the door and walked in without hesitation.

Yue Weiwei had a hearty nap and had just woken up. Her face was rosy, her lips were red and her teeth were white, which made Li Hengtu's heart flutter.

"Mr. Li, why didn't I see you after breakfast?"

Li Hengtu lowered his eyes and didn't look at her directly: "I went out for a while because of something. I made you some sweet soup. Drink some to moisten your throat."

Yue Weiwei looked at the sweet soup, then at Li Hengtu: "I am so lucky, can I drink sweet soup every day from now on?"

Yue Wei's smile was so sweet, even sweeter than this sweet soup. Li Hengtu looked at her blankly and said, "Of course, we are engaged and we will be together until old age."

Yue smiled and lowered her head: "Mr. Li's love words are a little different today."

"Why is it different?"

Yue Weiwei covered her mouth shyly: "You were so gentle the last few times, but you were a bit overbearing today!"

Li Hengtu raised his eyebrows: "Drink it quickly."

Yue Weiwei obediently picked up the bowl and drank it all up, not forgetting to praise: "Mr. Li's cooking skills are really good."

"Didn't you say you couldn't catch up with Qian Yue?"

Yue Weiwei patted the table lightly and said with a pout, "Your cooking skills are the best in this inn."

Li Hengtu smiled, trying to get rid of his worries: "It's sunny today, I'll take you out for a walk."

Yue Weiwei was very excited. She had been almost inseparable from this inn since she was injured, and going out to play now was exactly what she wanted.

The two walked side by side, and Li Hengtu paid special attention to Yue Weiwei's face, not missing any subtle expression.

"Keep going forward and you will reach Liandong Mountain." Yue Weiwei said, pointing ahead.

Li Hengtu stopped, he didn't want to go there.

"Let's go to another place. The contrast with the winter mountains is too strong. The desolation of the mountains is unbearable to look at."

Yue Weiwei nodded obediently, thinking to herself, does today count as a date?

"Mr. Li, do you have the lilac wood carving with you?"

Li Hengtu shook his head: "In the inn, what happened?"

"Nothing, can you carve one for me?"

Li Hengtu turned his head and looked. He had admired her for so long, was he really going to do this today?

Yue Weiwei felt embarrassed and turned around to ask, "What's wrong, Mr. Li? Is there sweet soup on my face?"

Li Hengtu also felt that he was being reckless and lowered his head, not daring to look again: "No, I... you are very beautiful!"

Yue chuckled and suddenly turned around: "The general's wife also knows, right?"

Li Hengtu nodded.

"Does she like me?"

"Of course I do!"

"Really?"

"real!"
