Chapter 746 Abducted on the Way

At the moment, only Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu were left in the carriage.

Seeing that the nuisances had left, Long Tianyu looked relaxed.

Nevertheless, noticing that Lin Mengya seemed to be very concerned about this, he asked jealously, “You have little interest in meddling in others’ business, don’t you?”

Hearing his question, Lin Mengya said with a sweet smile, “Of course I have little interest in meddling in others’ business. But since we and Hou Yuetian are on the same boat, I’m afraid it’s too late to distance ourselves from him now.”

Then she picked up the milk tea which Long Tianyu specially made for her and contained a lot of milk and syrup.

Since Long Tianyu discovered that her taste was declining, he and Qinghu had tried every means to nourish her.

Sometimes, she was grateful to the poison that had been afflicting her. Otherwise, she would have been fattened up.

“You’re quite sharp-eyed. You noticed that too?” Long Tianyu asked.

Seeing Lin Mengya nod helplessly, Long Tianyu felt his heart skipped a beat.

After all, he and Qinghu had hidden plenty of things from Lin Mengya.

However, seeing that Lin Mengya did not intend to question him, he pretended as if nothing had happened with the worried look in his eyes gone.

“I just found we have been stalked by some spies. They do a bad job and should at least make more efforts to disguise themselves. Speaking of which, they are even less professional than the spies sent by your father,” Lin Mengya said.

Long Tianyu agreed with her. Only excellent spies or secret agents, who had received special training, could hide themselves without being discovered.

Every aristocratic family might have hired a few spies or secret agents.

But there were only a limited number of such talents even in the army.

A large-scale monitoring operation required a lot of spies, and they would inevitably show some flaws.

Not to mention Lin Mengya, any member of their caravan with normal vision would be able to tell that something was amiss after looking carefully.

She didn’t know whether the spies, whose operation was poorly-conceived, came to watch Lin Mengya’s caravan or to give themselves away.

“If you find them annoying, I’ll get rid of them all,” Long Tianyu said.

He, who had never taken anyone other than Lin Mengya seriously, spoke casually as if talking about killing flies.

Shaking her head, Lin Mengya drank the cup of calorie-laden milk tea and said with a smile, “Let it be. We’d better be good in a foreign country so as not to cause Mr. Hou trouble. Why hasn’t Qinghu come back yet? I would like to know what kind of ravishing woman could make Mr. Hou lose his composure!”

Long Tianyu was fascinated by Lin Mengya’s interested look.

He gently adjusted her long hair with his hand, thinking since they returned to the Capital City from the Nation of Lintian, he seemed to have rarely seen her so lively and playful.

After all, she was still a woman less than 20 years old.

But her life became heavy as she stepped into his life.

As he thought, he took her cool and tender hand and held it tightly, wanting to exert all his strength but afraid that she would be hurt.

Their fingers were interlaced like their connected hearts.

She was all he could see with his deep eyes.

“Ya’er, in fact, I want to live a carefree life with you,” he said.

Taken aback for a moment, she said with a smile, “Don’t be silly. Could it be possible for us to live an idle life in seclusion like those hermits?”

Lin Mengya tilted her head, thinking that Long Tianyu was joking with her.

But Long Tianyu stared at her seriously and seemed to mean it.

He said, “If you like it, why not?”

Her heart trembled slightly. In fact, this had also been her dream.

However...

She lowered her head and saw their fingers were interlaced unconsciously.

Ever since she married into Prince Yu’s Mansion, their fates had entangled with each other

If she were just an ordinary woman, she could give up everything and live in seclusion with him even at the cost of bearing the name femme fatale.

Unfortunately, she was not.

She said, “I know you dote on me, but this is our fate. Long Tianyu, you don’t need to give up so many things for me. As a couple, we should go through thick and thin together. If I let you give up everything for my pleasure, I will be too selfish, won’t I?”

Lin Mengya took his hand, nestled in his arms, and smelled the scent of medicine he got from her as she continued saying, “I love you, but it does not mean that I want you to give up everything for me. I know you are willing to do that, so why can’t I go through everything with you? You’re born to be a prince, while I’ve been following in my mother’s footsteps since I was born. Since our fates are sealed, let’s face them. As long as I’m with you, I shall not live in vain even if I have to die.”

Holding her tightly and resting face down on Lin Mengya’s shoulder, Long Tianyu felt that she had totally won his heart.

Why could she always say such touching words to him?

Nevertheless, Lin Mengya had never indulged in empty talk and had made elaborate schemes for him without thinking about herself.

He wished that he could grow old with her right now and never be apart from her.

With her in his arms, he felt even the sea could change into mulberry fields in the blink of an eye.

“Stop it! It will be embarrassing if Qinghu or the others see us,” nestling in Long Tianyu’s arms, Lin Mengya said with a shy smile.

It seemed that Long Tianyu had become bolder since she was in poor health.

He even kissed and hugged her openly.

Although she was a thick-skinned person from modern times, she thought him too bold.

Back when they were in Prince Yu’s Mansion, every time those shy girls saw them together, the girls blushed and gossiped about it.

Alas, her reputation in this life had been completely ruined by him!

“Ahem, ahem, Your Highness, our carriage was stopped outside.” The affectionate couple in the carriage were alerted by someone who faked coughs in embarrassment.

Lin Mengya recognized that it was Lin Kui’s voice. When she was struggling to free herself, Long Tianyu held her even more tightly.

He held her tightly in his arms in an overbearing manner, regardless of his wife’s blushing face.

“Who is it?” Long Tianyu asked in his usual serious voice as if he were in the Emperor’s audience hall.

“I have no idea. We were stopped by a large group of people who didn’t take any action, and the head said that they just wanted to invite you to their master’s place for a talk,” Lin Kui said.

They were recognized? Lin Mengya raised her head, looking surprised and confused.

“Does this have anything to do with Hou Yuetian?” She asked.

Lin Kui said “yes”, which put Lin Mengya’s mind at ease.

As she expected, they, who traveled with Hou Yuetian, were naturally regarded as his companions.

What had happened just now might be a trick to lure Hou Yuetian away.

Anyway, they had been someone’s target.

“Follow them,” Long Tianyu said.

Then he fetched a cloak in the carriage casually and wrapped Lin Mengya in it.

The two of them always had a tacit understanding when dealing with this kind of thing.

They had to keep a low profile in a foreign country.

Moreover, since the person invited them over at this time, his target was actually Hou Yuetian.

Someone as smart as Qinghu would certainly figure this out.

Unless it was absolutely necessary, they would try all they could to avoid conflicts with the person.

But if the person tried to hurt them, he would not be able to do that.

After all, both of them were hard nuts to crack.

They sat in their carriage composedly, letting those people dressed in black and red uniform around them lead the way.

Before long, they arrived at the gate of a large manor.

Through the window, Lin Mengya could only see that this was a magnificent place.

However, she did not see the host, probably because they were only supporting roles in the show.

Along the way, the guide was very polite to them without spitting out hard words at them although they were abducted and taken here.

However, when she was carried out of the carriage by Long Tianyu, it attracted many people’s attention.

Fortunately, Long Tianyu, who was not a generous person, immediately covered her beautiful face with the cloak and carried her into the room, which was prepared for them for a short stay, with a cold face.

“Please take a rest here. My master doesn’t mean to make things difficult for you, and he just wants to invite the person traveling with you over,” the head of the group of people somehow said to them more politely and respectfully.

Wrapped in the cloak, Lin Mengya did not know what had happened.

“Okay,” her husband answered with one simple word as usual.

The head probably had no idea how to continue the conversation, so he saluted with joined hands and left to report on his task.

“Phew, do you want to suffocate me?” As soon as the door was closed, Lin Mengya took off the cloak and complained to Long Tianyu discontentedly.

His handsome face, which was as cold as ice, softened in an instant.

After gently placing her on the bed and adjusting her long hair, he sat by the bed and chatted softly with her, “I won’t allow them to see my wife’s face. It’s safe here. We can leave whenever we want.”

Lin Mengya was tongue-tied and looked at Long Tianyu suspiciously. Recently, she became increasingly doubtful if the man in front of her was the cold-faced fiend who reluctantly married her back then.

She pinched Long Tianyu’s handsome face and found it still felt the same. Why did his character change so much now?

“What’s wrong?” Long Tianyu asked.

He didn’t notice that he treated his wife so gently that she got goosebumps all over her body.

Lin Mengya shook her head with difficulty and swallowed back the question on the tip of her tongue.
