He just wanted to love her selflessly and unconditionally.
The carriage stopped outside the Li Manor.
Xi Ying first got out of the carriage and glanced at the manor gates. He smirked when he saw that there were no Imperial guards at the gates.
He then picked Xi Ling from inside the carriage and helped him to stand on the ground. Again stretching out his hand, he waited for Li Rui to place her hand in his hand.
However, this time when she was out of the carriage he didn't leave her hand. He could feel her gaze on his face as she once tried to take her hand back but he didn't let her.
"I'll leave. Let me just hold it until we are in Li Manor."
He whispered in her ear and Li Rui looked away silently making Xi Ying releived.
Her gaze went down when she felt Xi Ling holding her hand. Xi Ling was looking at her with a smile when she looked down. His gaze lingered on his father and mother's joined hands and Li Rui noticed it.
Her heart melted away at this sight and she forgot about the unfamiliar touch in her other hand.
Just as the three of them stepped inside the Manor, a maid who was cleaning the front hall saw them. The cloth fell down from her hand when she who it was.
She hurriedly ran inside to inform anyone of Prime Minister Xi and Young Miss' arrival.
Inside the living room, the Li and Yi family was talking to each other.
The men stood on one side making a small circle around General Li as he returned the questions of everyone.
How was he saved? Who abducted him? and etc.
In a corner, the women were sitting on the couch having some chat.
Yi Lei's mother was shedding tears as she thought about her son's burnt face. Yi Jie was consoling her.
Yi Lei was sitting with other Li family's children. His face was indifferent as he glanced at his mother in between.
Once in a while, he would see Li Na and Li Caihong's gaze full of disgust on his face. Li Sying was also looking at him with fearful eyes. But he looked calm.
A few maids were setting snacks on the table. The Emperor ordered to free the servants who were already investigated by Minister Xin.
The maid knocked on the door and then stepped inside the room interrupting the conversations inside the room.
"My Lady"
She went in front of Yi Jie and bowed her head.
"Young Miss is here."
Everyone's attention was attracted by the maid's words.
"Elder sister is here."
"Jiejie is here."
Yi Lei and Li Chen, both stood at the same time as they said this. They looked at each other with a frown and then stepped forward to go out of the room.
Li Na and Li Caihong looked at leaving Li Chen with a displeased face.
"Jiejie, why is Li Chen so eager to meet her?"
Li Caihong asked her sister with a frown.
"Who knows? Let's see." Said Li Na and then walked out of the living room followed by Li Caihong.
On the couch, Yi Jei was looking at the ground when General Li walked towards her and patted her cheek.
"Yi Jei."
She was startled and raised her head at the voice.
"What are you thinking about so deeply? Didn't you hear the maid? Rui is here."
General Li told her with a smile. He then forwarded his hand and said
"Let's go outside."
With a nervous heart, Yi Jie placed her hand in her husband's hand.
Outside in the front hall, everyone surrounded Li Rui.
"Elder sister."
It was Li Sying who first ran forward and hugged Li Rui holding her waist.
Li Rui's one hand was held by Xi Ying and the other by Xi Ling so she couldn't raise her hand to pat the young girl's hand affectionately.
However, Li Sying didn't even notice it. She really missed her elder sister. Before when Li Rui had come, she was not in the Li Manor and last time also, the situation didn't allow her to meet her Li Rui properly.
Yi Lei and Li Chen were standing a bit far away as both the young men glared at Xi Ying who was holding their Jiejie's hand.
They had wanted to talk to Li Rui first but both of them had not expected Prime Minister Xi to come with Li Rui. They were not unaware of the rumors that Xi Ying doesn't treat Li Rui well.
Their steps halted when they saw the scene of Li Rui's hands hold by Minister Xi and Xi Ling allowing Li Sying to run ahead of them.
"Rui"
Li Diu stepped forward and called her. Compared to Yi Lei and Li Chen, he was mature and intelligent enough to understand that they can't do anything if Minister Xi had come here now.
He had not seen his younger sister for so long so he doesn't want to waste this time by getting angry at someone.
Li Rui raised her head when she heard her elder brother's voice.
Seeing him standing in front of her safe and sound, she felt relieved.
"Elder Brother."
Xi Ying left Li Rui's hand so that she can talk to Li Diu properly. He then signed Xi Ling to come on his side. Li Sying also moved back with a pout.
"How is Elder Brother?"
Li Diu knew that although Li Rui looked calm, she must be very worried for him and his father.
He patted her head with a smile and said
"I'm alright. What can happen to me? How are you doing?"
While asking this to Li Rui, he also glanced towards Xi Ying. Li Rui, of course, understood what he was trying to ask.
"Rui is also doing well."
Her eyes moved across the room to look at others, but they suddenly stopped on someone.
Yi Lei's body tensed when he felt Li Rui's eyes on his face.
Will Jiejie also dislike him because of his disfigured face?
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
