410. Is That Really Me? (2)
Translator: Guy Gone Bad
Old Lady Yin slightly frowned, having no idea what her father was trying to say.
Qi Lan looked a bit hesitated, “Yes.”
“If I say I agree to your marriage, will you immediately marry him?” As Old Lord Min said this, he threw Yin Jinye a ‘take it easy’ look.
Yin Jinye screwed her eyebrows.
Qi Lan did not reply.
Old Lord Min then smiled and left.
Old Lady Yin quickly followed up. When coming in Old Lord Min’s, she asked, “Dad, you know Lan’er has always wanted to marry Ye’er, why did you still ask?”
The old man smiled, “Don’t worry, he wouldn’t marry Ye’er.”
Old Lady Yin was confused, “Then why did you ask him?”
“You said to me before Lan’er wanted to marry Ye’er, and you couldn’t think though why he would do so. So I was testing his attitude.”
“Testing him?”
The old man nodded, “Three years ago, perhaps Lan’er really wanted to marry Ye’er. But now, three years later, I can assure you that by saying he wants to marry Ye’er, he just doesn’t want Ye’er to marry Xiaoyi, because he likes Xiaoyi.”
Old lady Yin looked at him in surprise, “Lan’er likes Xiaoyi? How is that possible? Lan’er goes against Xiaoyi everywhere. How is it possible he likes him?”
“Sometimes, when one likes the others, he’d use some other means to express it, instead of being good to that person.”
Old Lady Yin still can’t believe that Qi Lan likes Rong Yi, “Dad, whether it is like what you said, we just take it as we don’t know this thing, we can never expose it that he likes Xiaoyi before everyone.”
Given her knowledge about Qi Lan, once everyone knew that he likes Rong Yi, he will no longer have any scruples, he would wantonly pursue Rong Yi. Forget about whether he could separate Rong Yi and Yin Jinye, even his brotherhood with Yin Jinye would end here.
Whatever the outcome, it wasn’t something she wanted to see, and she didn’t want anyone to get hurt for this.
But, does Qi Lan really like Rong Yi?
After listening to what Old Lord Min said, Old Lady Yin began to observe Qi Land and the other two in secret. She found that as long as day broke, Qi Lan would go to Yin Jinye’s yard to sabotage Rong Yi and Yin Jinye’s intimate doings. Sometimes, while Rong Yi and Yin Jinye did not pay attention, he would stare at Rong Yi, with all affection in his eyes.
That made her very worried. But fortunately Qi Lan didn’t realize he had fallen in love with Rong Yi, and Rong Yi also took it as he was making trouble out of nothing and didn’t put him in his heart at all.
Old Lady Yin felt a little relieved, praying in her heart that Qi Lan would drop that idea for receiving no response for too long.
Next, everyone began to prepare for the centennial meeting. Qi Lan also had to leave Beiba prefecture and returned to Dongtang to make preparations for the meeting.
Rong Yi also became very busy, in order to improve the ability Yin Jinye’s guards, he refined a stack of enchanted runes for them, so as to increase their power to a new level. And they’d definitely be the elites out of elites among those escorting guards. And because of this, Rong Yi also won those guards’ respect. They took Rong Yi as another master in their heart now.
Time flies. In a blink of an eye, two months had passed, and it was August the Eighth.
Before five in the morning, Rong Yi was dragged out of his bed and got dressed up.
Rong Yi would have thought this day was his wedding day if he had not been wearing those magnificent white robes.
“Is it necessary to dress so formally like this?” Rong Yi felt that it was too exaggerating, like he was wearing the emperor’s dragon robes.
Rong Su said, “Of course it is necessary, young master Rong, you are the lord’s partner. You can never let other people look down on you because of your shabby clothes.”
Rong Yi, speechless, looked around, “Where is Jinye?”
“The lord has to receive other chatelains, so he went to the hall first. The lord said that when you got dressed up, you should go to the hall to find him.”
The maid who was dressing Rong Yi up said, “Young master Rong, it’s done.”
Rong Yi looked into the bronze mirror and was stunned by the reflection, “Is that really me?” Rong Su couldn’t help smiling, “Of course it is you, who else would it be? Young master Rong, go find the lord, don’t keep him waiting.”
As Rong Yi walked out of the room, he heard the children laughing.
“Daddy, daddy...” the four excited children came running over and looked at Rong Yi’s clothes, cyring, “Daddy is so beautiful, as beautiful as an immortal.”
Rong Yi tapped his head, pretending to be angry, “This is handsome, not beautiful.”
Yin Tao nodded, although he didn’t quite understand.
Rong Yi was also very pleased with the way the four children were dressed. The robes they were wearing were exactly like his, including their hair style. As long as they were out, people would knew they were family.
“Shifu.”
Xiang Lv and Bu Qi came over. As they saw Rong Yi’s clothes and makeup, they were stunned and then said with a smile, “Shifu, the robes really suit you.”
When Rong Yi saw that they were also dressed in fine clothes, he smiled and said, “You look very handsome today.”
Xiang Lv and Bu Qi smiled embarrassedly.
Rong Yi lifted up his cloak and said to the glittering tree, “Wind Inducing, Mantis Wave, time to go.”
The next second, all the wind mosquitos beasts and bone mantis beasts flew out and hid in Rong Yi’s robes like shooting stars.
Then Rong Yi led the children to the hall.
