Yusui Chang'an

Chapter 1089: Expressing My Feelings
Lin Wanrong, who had finally mustered up all her courage and shown some bravery, regretted it after Guier went to ask for help. She wanted to run away, but when she thought of the people she cared about, she forced herself to stay.

Chu Chengping was stunned when he saw Lin Wanrong, and Lin Wanrong, who was waiting for Chu Chengping, also had a hot face and a stiff body. After all, she had never even thought about meeting a man outside his house before, let alone doing it.

After a brief moment of surprise, Chu Chengping came to his senses first, and took two steps forward with surprise and worry:
"Ms. Wanrong, did you really ask me to come here? Did anyone persuade or induce me?"

Lin Wanrong's sweaty palms tightly grasped the handkerchief, biting the tip of her tongue to relieve the pain and tension:
"No one... It was you who invited His Highness to come..."

Chu Chengping glanced at Gui'er standing at the gate, staring at the outside of the courtyard with a nervous look. His worries were put aside, and depression rose again:

She is so timid that she would reject me in person if she could meet me alone...

"Miss, you asked me to come here, but do you have something to say?"

Lin Wanrong: "Well... thank you for helping me find my mother a few days ago. I only learned about this yesterday. I'm asking you to come here to express my gratitude and give me an answer."

Although Chu Chengping already knew the answer and felt distressed, his inner cultivation also made him treat him with courtesy:

"Miss, you are too polite. I just happened to meet you and want to lend a hand. I hope your mother is fine."

Lin Wanrong swallowed her saliva, controlled her legs that wanted to escape, and said calmly, "Your Highness, this is a great favor to me. I will remember it in my heart. I want to ask you...what you said in the Fanyin Temple that day...do you still take it seriously?"

I thought Lin Wanrong asked me to come here to thank her and then reject her in person. After hearing the unexpected turn of events, Chu Chengping felt like he had grasped a straw, his eyes lit up:
"Real! More real than real gold, just waiting for the lady's favor!"

The most difficult question had already been asked. Lin Wanrong, who had lowered her eyes and dared not look at anyone, spoke more fluently:
"Yan'er said that Your Highness... is a trustworthy person. My refusal that day... was not because I didn't trust Your Highness. It was because I knew that I was born in a lowly family and was not worthy of Your Highness. But Yan'er said that Your Highness and I have known each other for many years. Your Highness knows my background well. If you have such feelings for me, it means that you don't care about my background. I believe Yan'er and Your Highness, but I'm afraid the royal family doesn't believe me. Your Highness is a good person. I can't bear to make Your Highness sad, let alone embarrassed, so I went to Your Highness to talk it out alone. I hope Your Highness can let it go as soon as possible."

Chu Chengping listened, and a look of joy gradually spread across his face. After Lin Wanrong finished speaking, he excitedly took two steps forward, but was afraid of getting too close and scaring his beloved, so he suppressed his joy and took a step back and stood still:
"So, you have me in your heart, right?"

After asking, he saw Lin Wanrong's head lowered even lower, and even her ears were red with shame. He felt that he was too reckless. How could he ask so directly?

"I spoke out of turn. You don't understand how happy I am that I know your feelings, so I spoke out of control. Please rest assured and wait for me. I will definitely welcome you as my first wife and will not marry anyone else."

Listening to Chu Chengping's excited and solemn promise, Lin Wanrong felt guilty: After all, she was the one who schemed against him.

Lin Wanrong suppressed her guilt and considerately declined the offer on the grounds of her background, which made Chu Chengping feel distressed. He once again expressed his feelings and determination to marry no one but her, and only then did Lin Wanrong nod hesitantly.

Looking up at the sincere and joyful smiling face, Lin Wanrong apologized secretly in her heart.
