Pretend

"I didn't expect that I would marry Xiaoer! Even Xiaoer asked for it herself! Thank goodness this feeling is not a one-sided feeling!"

Apparently Yan Baihan was just pretending not to know that the two of them were getting married soon.

Actually Xiaoer didn't mind if Baihan wanted to discuss their marriage. But since Baihan chose to pretend he didn't know, Xiaoer just went with the flow.

"Ah, then forget it! Then, what are we going to do today?" Xiaoer tried to change the subject.

Baihan seemed silent and thought of something. However, suddenly a maidservant approached Xiaoer.

"I greet Her Highness Princess Lu Xiaoer and Master Yan Baihan," said the maidservant.

"What are you doing here?" Xiaoer asked.

"I was given an order to inform that Princess Xiaoer was already waiting for someone in the front hall of the palace!" replied the maidservant obediently.

It was rare for Xiao'er to have a guest, so it made her wonder who was waiting for her. Then Xiaoer asked the identity of the person who was looking for her.

It turned out to be Xing Wuyao, the man Xiao'er was going to betrothed to. Of course Xiaoer was surprised by the man's arrival.

"Hasn't the arranged marriage been cancelled? Why did he come to see me?" Xiaoer was confused and didn't understand.

"I do not understand, Princess! I was only told to convey this message to you," said the maid.

Since the maidservant knew nothing of Xing Wuyao's arrival, Xiao'er asked her to leave. Xiaoer had no other choice but to meet him.

'Did he come because he did not accept the cancellation of the arranged marriage?' Xiaoer thought as she tried to guess the reason.

Xiaoer looked at Baihan who had been silent all this time. It seemed that in this matter Xiaoer did not need to take Baihan as this was a matter between her and Wuyao.

"Baihan, can you wait here for a moment? I have to see Xing Wuyao," Xiaoer said.

Baihan was silent and didn't answer Xiao Er. However, it is clear that Bhaijan is sad because Xiao Er is about to meet her ex-candidate husband.

"Did Xiaoer change her mind and accept the match she previously canceled?"

Xiaoer heard Baihan's inner voice which apparently thought he would change her mind. Xiaoer didn't know how small Baihan's heart was.

'Gosh, he looks like a child. How can he be so shallow?' Xiao'er thought dizzy.

Xiaoer didn't want to make Baihan misunderstood. So before seeing Xing Wuyao, Xiaoer gave Baihan an explanation first.

"Baihan, I just wanted to give him a direct explanation as to why I refused. I've decided to marry you, so don't worry because I won't change my mind and stay married to you," Xiaoer explained to make Baihan calm.

Baihan was still silent and didn't speak but he looked into Xiaoer's eyes. Finally after a while, Baihan answered her.

"All right, I'll be waiting for you here," said Baihan who complied.

Xiaoer was relieved that Baihan had finally calmed down and was willing to trust her. Xiaoer heard Baihan's heart again.

"Hope you really marry me and don't let me down."

Apparently Baihan was that afraid of being abandoned by Xiaoer. Xiaoer smiled and said, "After I come back, play your zither! I want to hear the music you play! I go first!"

After saying goodbye, Xiaoer saw a smile on Baihan's face. After this, Xiaoer had to settle her business with Wuyao.

Finally Xiaoer arrived at the front hall of the palace and saw a man in purple clothes and purple hair also looking at the pond containing the natural biota.

This was not Xiao'er's first meeting with Wuyao because in their previous life they had lived together.

But nervousness still clung to his body. He felt that this was because his second life was meeting Wuyao for the first time.

In his previous life, today was indeed Xiaoer's and Wuyao's wedding day. But because Xiao'er rejected it, so today they are not married.

It was just that Xiaoer was curious as to why Wuyao had come to see her instead. Given Wuyao's reluctant but willing nature.

"Ahem!" Xiaoer cleared her throat and made Wuyao turn around.

Now they both face each other. And again, Xiaoer was blown away by Wuyao's good looks. But Xiaoer tried to hold it in.

'Hold on, Xiao'er, hold on! Someday he will also be your husband, but not now!' Xiaoer thought as she tried to wake herself up.

"Long live Princess Lu Xiaoer!" Wuyao gave his greetings.

"Sit down, say what you want," Xiaoer said matter-of-factly.

Now the two of them sat facing each other which was only limited by the table in front of them. Just sitting down, Xiaoer already heard Wuyao's heart.

"It turned out that Princess Lu Xiaoer was much prettier in real life. In fact, she is prettier than her three sisters."

Xiaoer who was so shocked that she coughed as she heard Wuyao's heart. Xiaoer didn't expect to get hit first.

"Princess?! Are you okay?! Have a drink first!" Wuyao held out the glass of water that was in front of him.

Xiaoer accepted the glass of water that Wuyao had given her and took a sip. Wuyao's double kill made Xiaoer lose focus.

'Already attacked by good looks, now attacked by his heart. Really makes people squeaky,' a touched Xiao'er thought.

Xiaoer's self-defense was crushed by Wuyao's actions, but Xiaoer kept trying to strengthen herself.

"Alright, I'm fine! Let's focus! So, what is your purpose in coming here?" asked Xiaoer who didn't want to waste any time.

Apart from being worried for fear of being charmed by Wuyao, Xiaoer also felt sorry for Baihan who waited for her if it took too long.

"Why did you cancel our match and instead choose to marry the son of the Yan family? Is it because I am a different man?" Wuyao looked serious.

'Done! What should I answer? No way, right, because in his previous life he also betrayed me? What kind of situation is this?!'
