“Oh,” Bo Jinyan replied expressionlessly.

She would not marry him? He was the one who didn't want to propose to her.

“I know that you want to marry me, but you are not my type.”

“Mm.”

“I am someone you could never get in your lifetime.”

Bo Jinyan was speechless.

Just like Yu Lingfeng had said, she was truly a r.e.t.a.r.d!

It was no wonder he was so violent with her…

Ye Erruo was gloomy as she stepped out of the palace.

“What's wrong, Ruoruo?”

“Aren't I Brother Jinyan's fiancee? Why did he tell everyone that I am his G.o.dsister?”

“That was just a lie he told the outsiders. Don't worry, you are his fiancee,” Yu Lingfeng explained.

“Why do we have to lie to outsiders?”

“Some things are hard to explain. Do not overthink things, Xiao Ruo.”

“Okay.” Ye Erruo lowered her head, her mood worsening. “I heard them call you their prince earlier. Since you're my brother, doesn't that mean that I am a princess?”

Yu Lingfeng furrowed his brows and said, “Ruoruo, you got very sick and forgot a lot of things. They are all horrible things and nightmares. Brother Jinyan and I are afraid that you will get hurt. That's why we aren't telling you. All you need to know is that you are Bo Jinyan's fiance and I am your older brother. You are our little princess. That's all that matters.”

“What kind of illness did I have?”

“You had a terrible fever.”

“What about the nightmares?”

“Ugh… Xiao Ruo, I told you that if you knew, you would only get more upset. That's why I can't tell you.”

“Oh,” Ye Erruo responded in low spirits.

The words in her mind earlier had left her feeling ill at ease.

“Do you still want to return to the banquet?”

“I don't.”

“Then big brother will take you out to play, alright?” Yu Lingfeng's heart could not cope with her unhappiness.

“Why hasn't Brother Jinyan come out yet?”

“He has something important to do, so he can't head out just yet. Let's go first and he'll come over later.”

After hesitating for a while, Ye Erruo finally agreed.

The long street was bustling with small activities arranged due to the banquet organized in the Queen's palace in celebration of the princess's return.

People were walking about, and plenty of stalls were selling various gadgets and s.h.i.+ny trinkets.

Yu Lingfeng took Ye Erruo along as they strolled through the night market while eating small treats.

He took her to try out various flavors of treats, which improved Ye Erruo's mood tremendously.

“I want to eat this again.” Ye Erruo lowered her head and glanced at the empty box in her hand.

“Oh… We will have to buy this again. Wait here for me. I'll go buy it for you.”

“Okay.”

“Ring toss! Ring toss!”

When Yu Lingfeng left, Ye Erruo began to shop around alone.

All of a sudden, her gaze fell on a rogue rabbit at a stall. It was adorable, but she needed to win the ring toss to get it.

“Give me ten rings.”

“Sure thing, miss.”

“Young Master, Young Master! Please walk slowly.” Bo Yu followed Mo Jiangye anxiously.

“Where is she?” Mo Jiangye scanned the crowd as he looked for her frantically.

D*mn it! He had been here for more than a week, yet he had finally seen his woman. He had tried to raid Bo Jinyan's broken old place a few times but had failed, almost alerting the enemy as a result.

“She is on this night market street.”

Mo Jiangye's face darkened. This street was several hundred meters long with various winding lanes. How was he going to find her?

“Young Master, Young Master!” Bo Yu patted Mo Jiangye's shoulders excitedly.

“Get lost, d*mn it!”

“Look! Is that Young Madam?”

Ah! Mo Jiangye turned his head back abruptly.
