Rebirth of the Firstborn Daughter: Life is like a Dream

Chapter 216 Guan Hualang's Difficulties

With Li Yuyan by her side, Wei Bingyan was finally able to have a good sleep. When she woke up, it was already evening. Guan Hualang went with them to meet Mingyue.

“Junior sister, you see, I’ve been bored to death in Guanzhuang for the past few months. No one is more pitiful than me. You and Xiao San’er are so good. You got married without any hesitation, and the old man didn’t even let me go to the capital to attend your wedding. It’s too much.” Guan Hualang pulled Wei Bingyan and blamed her, his handsome face showing a hint of resentment.

Still the senior brother in my memory! Wei Bingyan was in a happy mood, "You, no matter where you go, you can get bored. Have you ever gone to kill people and rob?"

Guan Hualang shouted, "I am just a rich man, I don't kill people and rob people, when others see me, they will call me Guan the Greatest Hero."

Wei Bingyan said with a smile, "Yes, you ate at the rich house, and in the end you kidnapped the princess."

When he mentioned Mingyue directly, Guan Hualang's gorgeous smile faded slightly, revealing a forced smile that was uglier than crying, "Junior sister, please don't ridicule me. She came to find me, and I can't chase her away."

"Big Brother, what do you think of Mingyue?" Wei Bingyan and Li Yuyan looked at each other. It was rare to see Guan Hualang looking sad. It seemed that Princess Mingyue really made things difficult for him.

Guan Hualang turned his head, looked at the endless sky and the setting sun, and said lightly: "She is a princess, and I am just a fool in the world. Even if... there is no possibility for us, how can the emperor and the empress dowager agree to let her marry me?"

“But, if Mingyue had not completely given up, why would she rush to Guanzhuang to look for you? This matter cannot be hidden from the palace from beginning to end.” Wei Bingyan said. She believed that the Empress Dowager must have known about Guan Hualang’s existence from Mingyue’s maid, and she didn’t know how she would view this matter.

After all, it was Mingyue who took the initiative to look for Guan Hualang. Even if the Empress Dowager wanted to blame him, it had nothing to do with Guan Hualang, and she would probably vent her anger on him.

Li Yuyan, who had never spoken, finally spoke, "There are many ways to make her give up completely, you just don't want to, or do you actually want to try harder to win her over?"

Guan Hualang said angrily, "How can we strive for it? If the palace does not allow it, it will drag down Guanzhuang instead. What should we do then?"

Wei Bingyan said: "In fact, we have to give it a try. After all, Mingyue is different from Princess Mudan. The Queen Mother loves and dotes on her, so she might agree to her request..."

"How can she, a famous princess, adapt to the life in the underworld?" Guan Hualang said softly.

"Who said I can't adapt? If I couldn't adapt, why haven't I been forced to leave by you in these few months?" Before they knew it, they had arrived at the Wu Garden, and Guan Hualang's last words were just heard by Mingyue who had come out to wait for them.

Guan Hualang looked at her helplessly, his lips moved, and he said softly, "Why are you here?"

Mingyue looked at him with frustration and pain. She had thrown away her status and came to him without asking for anything, but he was still unwilling to accept her feelings. He talked about the difference in status, which was just an excuse.

"Mingyue!" Wei Bingyan's eyes suddenly brightened up. She walked over and looked at her carefully. She noticed that she had not changed much. She looked more energetic than before in the capital. She put down her worries. "You really left the capital without saying a word. I don't know how many people will worry about you."

Guan Hualang avoided Mingyue's fierce questioning eyes, turned around and looked at Li Yuyan and said, "You haven't been to Wuyuan for a long time, why don't we go have a competition."

Li Yuyan glanced at Wei Bingyan and nodded to Guan Hualang.

After they left quietly, Mingyue burst into tears, grabbing Wei Bingyan's wide sleeves and crying, "What does he mean? What does he want from me? I have come to find him regardless of my status as a princess, but he has been avoiding me for the past few months and only sent his sister to persuade me to go back. Could it be that he really doesn't like me at all?"

They were standing at the spacious main entrance of Wuyuan. Others were coming and going. Wei Bingyan hurriedly pulled Mingyue to a corner and took out a handkerchief to wipe away her tears. "Don't be like that. The eldest brother has his own difficulties."

Mingyue felt even more aggrieved and miserable after hearing this, "What difficulty does he have?"

This is not a solution here, Wei Bingyan persuaded Mingyue to go back to the house and talk about it later.

Mingyue looked around with tearful eyes and realized that she had become a laughing stock. She pulled Wei Bingyan and ran straight back to the house where she had lived for several months. As soon as she entered the house, she prostrated herself on the bed and broke down in tears.

She really felt aggrieved and miserable. For Guan Hualang, she was willing to give up her status as a princess and travel thousands of miles from the capital to Guanzhuang. Why did he not understand? Why was he so cold to her? He clearly liked her, so why was he unwilling to face her feelings?

"If he didn't like me, why did he tease me at that time? When I was unhappy, why did he find ways to make me happy? Why did he indulge me... and even take me around... If this isn't love, what is it? I'm not blind, what exactly does he mean now!" Mingyue asked Wei Bingyan with tears in her eyes.

Wei Bingyan looked at Mingyue lovingly. Such a little girl had been without parents since childhood and grew up in the doting of the empress dowager. Although she was cheerful and cheerful, she was actually lonelier than anyone else in her heart. Guan Hualang accompanied her every day during the time she was in the capital. If the two of them did not share the same interests, who would believe it?

"Mingyue, you are a princess, and the eldest brother is just a martial artist. This is his difficulty." She spoke softly, patting Mingyue's back gently.

"But I'm not worried either." Mingyue cried with tears.

"You are not worried, but what about others?" Wei Bingyan asked, "Will the Empress Dowager agree? Will His Majesty allow it? Even if Guan Hualang likes you, he will not risk the danger of dragging down the entire Guanzhuang to be with you. You know why Princess Mudan left home at that time. You can do it without any excuse, but Guan Hualang cannot. Guanzhuang is his bondage."

Mingyue seemed to have never thought that her momentary emotional excitement would bring any danger to Guan Hualang and Guan Zhuang. She stared at Wei Bingyan blankly, "This is my choice. Could it be that the Empress Dowager and His Majesty...will also interfere?"

"Because you are a princess." Wei Bingyan said.

Mingyue's face turned pale, and she hung her head. She had stopped crying. "I don't know... I haven't thought about it that much..."

“If the Empress Dowager agrees that you and Guan Hualang can be together, then Guanzhuang will naturally not be in danger. If the Empress Dowager disagrees, how can Guanzhuang resist the court in the name of Guan Hualang who kidnapped the princess with a guilty conscience?” Wei Bingyan didn’t want to talk about it in a very serious way and scare her out of her wits, but if she didn’t explain the gains and losses in all aspects, Mingyue would have no idea what the problem was.

It’s not that Guan Hualang doesn’t like her, but his feelings for her are too heavy for him to bear.

Mingyue was stunned and her face turned pale. She really had never thought that liking Guan Hualang would be a burden to him.

"Why didn't he tell me?" She grabbed Wei Bingyan's arm and asked tearfully.

Wei Bingyan sighed, "Big Brother doesn't know how to tell you, and he doesn't want to see you sad."

"I understand." Mingyue hung her head, "I will return to the capital tomorrow."

When Guan Hualang came back, he heard others say that Mingyue was willing to return to the capital. He looked like he was crying or laughing, and said with concentration: "Great... Let's do that."

Wei Bingyan wanted to say something to comfort him, but she didn't know where to start.

What could he say? Should he persuade him to stay with Mingyue warmly, and let Guanzhuang face unknown dangers in the future, or let him run away from home with Mingyue, and live a wandering life from now on?

None of them work!

Mingyue can only talk to the Empress Dowager. If the Empress Dowager is willing to make the decision for her, then all problems will be solved.

Afterwards, Mingyue and Guan Hualang talked about something in private, and Guan Hualang actually wanted to personally send her back to the capital.

It is possible that two people want to work hard to fight for the last years of their lives together.

Guan Hualang wanted to send Mingyue back to the capital, but Master Guan did not agree. However, looking at his son's face, he could only nod and agree helplessly.

Wang Tianbao had not woken up yet, everyone was in a heavy mood, and Li Yuyan had to leave for Xuanmu Mansion.

Wei Bingyan personally saw Li Yuyan off from Guanzhuang.

"I will come to pick you up in a month at most." Li Yuyan held her in his arms, pressed his mouth against her hair, and said softly, "Don't worry about living here. If you feel bored, just walk around, but don't go far."

"Uh." Wei Bingyan responded slightly, hugging his solid body, "You should be careful too."

Li Yuyan pushed her away slightly, put his hands on her shoulders, and looked at her bright and charming face intently. Suddenly, he bent down and kissed her tender lips like petals affectionately, and continued kissing until her face turned red and she was almost out of breath, then he let her go.

"Don't let your imagination run wild. Believe me, I will explain all the beautiful things to her next time I come back." His thumb lingered on her soft red lips. Thinking that he wouldn't be able to see her for a month, he felt a little reluctant deep in his heart.

Wei Bingyan opened her mouth and bit his thumb, then said with a smile, "I understand. Even if you are willing, I still won't allow it."

"You dare to bite me!" Li Yuyan looked at her with a frown, stretched out his hand to grab her into his arms, and rubbed her hard twice.

"No, I have to go back and see someone later." Wei Bingyan was afraid that he could not control himself, so she hurriedly and forcefully pushed him away, begging for forgiveness.

He hasn’t been with her for about a month... Li Yuyan looked at her slender body with dark eyes, but finally endured it with great difficulty. They were in a carriage!
