1782 She Doesn’t Want To Be Alone With You

Long Yin was taken aback and asked, “What other reason could there be?”

“My sister’s secret portrait proves that she likes you. I thought you liked my sister too because you want to marry her.” He’an shrugged. He looked at Long Yin hesitantly. “But you said it’s because you’re a good fit. That sounds a little strange. Don’t you want to marry her because you like her?”

Long Yin frowned and began to give this deep thought once more.

Did he really want to marry Hexin because he thought they were a good fit and he wanted to take responsibility for her?

When He’an saw that he stayed silent, he thought Long Yin was not able to answer the question. He sighed and said in a would-be mature tone, “No matter what, I would like you to be my brother-in-law, Big Bro Long Yin. Keep up the effort. No one can do anything if my sister gets stubborn about something. You have to take care of things with her quickly. She is already at the age where my parents are starting to look for her future husband.”

Long Yin snapped out of it when he heard He’an’s words. His eyes narrowed slightly. It looked like Hexin did not lie to him about this. Uncle Rui and Aunt Xin were already searching for a good family for her to marry into.

At this point, he felt a little frustrated. If he were to suddenly ask for her hand from Uncle Rui and Aunt Xin, it would only make Hexin dislike him further.

That was why he had to take quick action during their trip to White Eagle Mountain. At the very least, he had to make her stop pushing him away.

At this thought, he turned to He’an with a smile and said, “How can I disappoint you when you’re already calling me your brother-in-law? Also, did you just extort quite a fair amount of sliver from your sister?”

He’an was taken aback as he clutched on the money. “How did you know?”

Long Yin smiled and said nothing. Instead, he took out a gold ingot. “Would you like to earn more money?”

He’an’s eyes brightened. “I do! Tell me, Big Bro Long Yin. What would you like me to do?”

“Good. You’re a smart one.” Long Yin was quite pleased with him. “It’s nothing much. I just need you to play along with me while I woo your sister. Of course, if you’re able to, I’d like you to create opportunities for me. Can you do that?”

“No problem. Just leave it to me. I’ll make sure to help you win my sister’s heart. You’re the brother-in-law I approve of.” He’an reached out his hand with a wide smile as he spoke.

Long Yin placed the gold ingot in his hand generously.

He’an was exceptionally excited at receiving the gold.

It was the first time in his life that he had received a gold ingot.

Long Yin raised an eyebrow—he could not understand why He’an would love money so much. By right, He’an should have a lot of money to spend as the heir presumptive of Prince Rui.

When He’an noticed the questioning look on Long Yin’s face, he said, “There’s something you aren’t aware of, Big Bro Long Yin. My parents refuse to give me any money because they think that money would corrupt me into being a bad person. Every time I need money, I have to secretly ask for some from my sister. She would give it to me if she is in a good mood, but when she is in a bad mood, she becomes really tight-fisted and won’t give me anything.” He tucked his gold ingot away carefully as he spoke. The way he treasured it made him look like a money worshipper.

“What do you need so much money for?” Long Yin was a little curious.

“Sigh, you’re a crown prince, Big Bro Long Yin. You wouldn’t understand how many places a minor person like me would need money for,” He’an replied sadly.

Long Yin could not help bursting out in laughter when he heard this.

“By the way, Cousin Yuan You will be coming with us tomorrow. My sister was the one who suggested it to my mother. The more the merrier, she said.” He’an smiled cunningly as he spoke. “It’s obvious that my sister doesn’t want to be alone with you. Alright, I’ve already told you what I came to say. I’ll be heading home. Come and pick me and my sister up tomorrow.” With that, He’an jumped off the marble table and headed out.

“Wait. Take this painting back with you. Otherwise, your sister will find out about it.” Long Yin called him back. He gave it some thought and opened the painting once more to read the words on the right, and the look in his eyes deepened.
