246 I will disappear from his Life

Once Qiu Zedong and Zhu Liling left, Li Hua questioned him why he always surprised her with his sudden behavior.

“What did I do?” Lóng Wei asked.

“Your Highness, His Majesty doesn’t like your actions. Since he adores you, he doesn’t say anything. However, he was angry,” Li Hua stated.

“Li Hua, I didn’t intend to anger him,” Lóng Wei said, and asked her if they should have their breakfast. Li Hua hummed and called in the maidservant. She turned to Lóng Wei and asked him to bring Court Lady Hong back.

“Why?” He knitted his brows.

“I feel secure when she’s around me. She may be from the Queen’s manor, but she is also concerned for His Highness. She never spied on us, else she would have told Her Majesty many things by now,” Li Hua argued with him.

“I will ask her,” Lóng Wei said, and walked up to the low table. He took his seat and gestured to Li Hua to sit down as well.

“Yuze will also come to see me. I wonder what message from heaven he will give this time.” Lóng Wei’s words puzzled Li Hua and she asked him if Yuze had returned earlier because the monk got a glimpse of something wrong.

“Yes. Yuze is a powerful monk. He appears to be elderly, but he is mentally and physically strong. He is a great martial artist too. He was my first teacher. The Royal Father trusts him because Yuze helped him even during the wars. His predictions are strong,” Lóng Wei said.

.....

Two maidservants walked in, bowed, and started to set the table. Once they were done, Lóng Wei dismissed them. He handed one pair of the chopsticks to Li Hua, and with the other pair, he started eating.

“Shall I help His Highness?” She humbly asked while looking at his left arm.

“No. I can use my right hand. Last night, I wanted to be spoon fed,” he said and smiled at her.

“Then, Monk Yuze’s predictions about His Highness may come true someday. He is the Son of Dragon, which means he will become the most powerful person,” Li Hua stated.

“Probably,” Lóng Wei replied. “Until I want to rule the Qiu Kingdom, that prophecy will never come true. However, I will remain powerful. People respect you, fear you, and blindly follow your words, if you are the most powerful person,” Lóng Wei asserted.

“A Dragon’s descendant doesn’t mean that he will be the King. It can have another meaning too. A King shall not be a tyrant one. But if I become the King, I will mercilessly kill everyone who has hurt me,” Lóng Wei proclaimed. “So, I better stay away from that,” he added.

He lifted his gaze from the platter before him and looked at her. “Are you scared?” He questioned.

“No. I am confused,” Li Hua answered.

“At the moment, my actions might have confused you. I managed to save Feng Lao’s life. You might be thinking that I am not that bad at what people think of me,” Lóng Wei processed her thoughts.

“Yes. His Highness saved Feng Lao,” she stated.

“Because I can’t see you getting upset if he dies. Currently, Feng Lao is the only person who can take me to the truth. So, I have to use him. If he becomes useless, then I need to throw him away too,” Lóng Wei asserted.

“His Highness doesn’t need to find the truth anymore,” Li Hua requested of him again. “I read the diary of my father, which His Highness retrieved from my house. He never wanted this truth to come out. Because Monk Yuze once prophesied about my marriage with you, it all happened,” she revealed the truth to him which he had hidden from her.

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

“When did you read it?” Lóng Wei put the chopsticks on the table and peered into her eyes.

“Yesterday. I could not fall asleep,” Li Hua replied. “The Fourth Prince had told me about it, so I wanted to know what it was about. I understand now why my father never let me go out,” Li Hua said and sighed.

“Forgive me for not sharing it with you earlier,” Lóng Wei said. “But it didn’t happen because of you. So, don’t blame yourself.” He understood why Li Hua asked him to stop looking for the truth.

“Your Highness, I cannot lose you,” Li Hua said.

“I have a long life,” Lóng Wei stated.

“My father also said the same. My second brother used to say this too when my mother told him not to take the exam to join the Qiu army. They are no more,” she chuckled, and tears poured down her cheeks.

Lóng Wei extended out his hand and rested it above Li Hua’s hand. “I indeed have a long time. Trust me. This was the first and last time I let myself get harmed,” he promised her.

Li Hua curled her fingers and lowered her head. “I may get harmed too. Will His Highness not stop?”

“You won’t get harmed,” Lóng Wei confidently said. “Put your faith in me.”

Li Hua realized that there was no use in making Lóng Wei understand. She wiped the tears from her cheeks.

“If His Highness gets harmed after today, I will step out of his life,” she pronounced and gazed at him.

“I will disappear from his life if he gets harmed or injured because of me. I will never show him my face. I mean it. This is the promise I make to myself,” Li Hua proclaimed.

Lóng Wei had never seen her so concerned. “I won’t ever let you go,” he affirmed.

Li Hua nodded at him. “I want the same. I don’t want him to let me go. I want him to hold me tight,” she said while holding her tears back.

“Why don’t you eat if you are done making promises?” Lóng Wei expressed his thoughts. He wanted to lighten her mood, but he didn’t know how. Currently, the atmosphere was too tense for both of them.

Li Hua silently started to eat while Lóng Wei continued to watch her face.
