By the time they returned to the room, the food was already cold and she lost even more of her appet.i.te.

Yuan You and Hean came running in when they heard the news.

What happened, Big Sis? Why did Big Bro Long Yin suddenly leave? Hean asked anxiously.

Yeah, how did he suddenly go away just like that? Yuan You was curious as well.

He has a pair of legs. He can leave whenever he wants to. Whats so strange about that? Hexin replied with indifference.

Didnt he say anything to you? Yuan You frowned.

Im a n.o.body to him. Why would he tell me anything? Hexin said nonchalantly.

Yuan You chokedeven a dull person like her could detect something was not right. She looked at Hexin thoughtfully. That doesnt sound right. Werent you two quite close just a few days before? He even wanted to marry you. He would have told you if he wanted to return to Great Shang, wouldnt he?

Hexin pressed her lips together. When did you see us being close?

I saw it with my own eyes and Im not the only one. Hean saw it too, right, Cousin Hean? Yuan You looked at Hean.

For once, Hean was quiet.

He was silent for a while before asking, Big Sis, who is Lu Xue?

Hexin glanced at him in surprise. Did you hear everything?

Hean sighed in an adult-like manner. I overheard the conversation between you and Big Bro Long Yin when I came over here last time.

Hexin nodded.

Yuan You asked anxiously, Whats this about Lu Xue? What are you talking about?

Lu Xue is Long Yins younger cousin. She went missing from the frontier between Great Shang and Danjue. Long Yin is very worried about her, which is why he left in a hurry, Hexin explained.

Yuan You frowned. Shes just missing. Should he be so worried about it? Besides, the frontier is quite a distance from here. What can he do by suddenly rus.h.i.+ng over from here?

Hexin smiled bitterly. You dont understand. That cousin of his holds a special place in his heart. Its only normal for him to be so anxious when she has suddenly gone missing.

Its just a missing cousin, why is he so anxious? I really dont understand.

Yuan You paused and her eyes widened. Are you telling me that the person

Crown Prince Long loves is Lu Xue?

Hexin nodded. Yes.

When Yuan You heard the answer, she said in a huff, Then why would he come chasing after you when there is already another lady in his heart? Hes gone too far!

Hean was frowning tight as well and said with regret, How can Big Bro Long Yin act this way? Who does he think you are? If I knew about this, I wouldnt have helped him.

When she heard this, Hexin asked, What did you help him with?

Hean began stammering. No Nothing.

Hexins eyes narrowed. Is there really nothing?

Hean felt guilty and he s.h.i.+fted his gaze.

He was really regretting it now. If he had known about this, he would not have stolen his sisters painting and shown it to Big Bro Long Yin. He even helped create opportunities for Big Bro Long Yin to be alone with his sister.

Hexin knew her only brother very well. When she saw that look in his eye, she knew that he was hiding something from her.

Forget about it if you dont want to say it, she said softly with a sigh.

When Hean saw this, he could no longer stand the guilt in his heart and confessed in a stammer, I I stole your painting of him and showed it to him.

Hexin instantly turned to look at him when she heard this. She said through clenched teeth, Beitang Hean, Im furious right now. No wonder Long Yin was so sure about her feelings. It was because he had seen the painting she had secretly drawn.

The thought of him reading the words on the painting made her feel even more embarra.s.sed..
