Rumor Has It That I’m Pregnant with His Highness’ Child - Chapter 169

169 I Must See Her

Shen Rui snorted.

“Prince Lang, don’t believe his lies. He must have deliberately made up the story of Miss Yu’s disappearance to protect his post.

I don’t believe a young lady can disappear into thin air in a huge mansion like theirs.”

Yu Kangtai was about to cry.

“I’m really not lying!”

Xiao Juan had solved countless cases. How could he not tell that Yu Kangtai was hiding something?

He stared at Yu Kangtai and asked coldly.

“Even if she’s gone, Dang Gui is still here, right? Call her out.”

Based on his understanding of the Yu family, these people were estranged from Yu Niaoniao. In the entire Yu Residence, only Dang Gui was on the same side as Yu Niaoniao.

In this situation, only Dang Gui would tell the truth.

Yu Kangtai said, “Dang Gui went out to look for her. She’s not back yet.”

Shen Rui sneered. “What a coincidence. None of them are in the residence?”

Yu Kangtai could not argue.

At this moment, Yu Pingping was hiding at the door.

She looked out carefully and saw that her father was speechless from the Sixth Prince’s question. She was extremely anxious.

She was about to rush out to speak for her father when she suddenly heard the butler’s voice behind her.

“Young Master and Missy are back!”

Yu Pingping suddenly turned around. “Sister is really back?”

The butler nodded vigorously. “They just entered the Yu Residence through the back door. They’ve already gone to the Green Jade Residence.”

Yu Pingping was pleasantly surprised. She was finally back!

She lifted her skirt and rushed towards the Green Jade Residence.

At this moment, the Green Jade Residence was in a mess.

The maidservants were putting on clothes for Yu Niaoniao.

After changing, Dang Gui picked up a comb and quickly combed Miss’s hair.

But because Yu Niaoniao’s hair was still wet, it was very difficult to comb it. The comb was to be stuck from time to time.

Yu Niaoniao was afraid of missing the auspicious hour, so she urged.

“You don’t have to comb it so meticulously. Just make sure it’s about the right size.”

Dang Gui said solemnly, “Today is the most important day of your life. How can you be so perfunctory?”

Yu Niaoniao said, “There’s not much time left. Hurry up.”

With that, she picked up the brush and prepared to draw her eyebrows.

But because she was so cold that she was trembling, her fingers couldn’t stop trembling as she held her eyebrow brush. Her drawn eyebrows were crooked.

At this moment, Yu Pingping ran in.

When she saw the eyebrows on Yu Niaoniao’s face, she was immediately shocked.

“Sis, why do you have caterpillars on your face?”

Yu Niaoniao put down the brush and said in a mix of embarrassment and anger, “Shut up!”

Yu Pingping walked over and wiped her eyebrows with a wet handkerchief. She realized that her face was pale and her forehead was hot. She couldn’t help but ask.

“Are you sick? Do you want a doctor to take a look at you?”

Yu Niaoniao sneezed, then rubbed her nose with her handkerchief. “I’m fine,” she said in a muffled voice. “I just caught a cold.”

With that, she picked up the brush again and prepared to draw her eyebrows again.

Yu Pingping saw that her fingers were trembling. She couldn’t stand it anymore and snatched the brush from her hand.

“Sit still. I’ll help you with your makeup.”

Yu Niaoniao looked at her skeptically. “Can you do it?”

Yu Pingping raised her chin confidently. “Just watch!”

She did not have talent in cooking, but she was indeed very good at makeup.

Soon, she helped Yu Niaoniao’s face was made up beautifully.

Yu Niaoniao looked left and right in the mirror.

Her originally pale face was already covered by makeup, but Yu Pingping controlled it very well. It did not seem like she had heavy makeup at all. Her cheeks were fair and rosy, her eyebrows were very exquisite, and her red lips were bright and full.

She was really bright-eyed and beautiful.

Yu Pingping was very satisfied with her work and asked proudly.

“How is it? Is it beautiful?”

Yu Niaoniao replied very honestly.

“I’m so beautiful!”

Yu Pingping was speechless.

‘I asked you to praise my skills, not yourself!’

Yu Sheng walked in with the ginger soup.

“Sister, drink this quickly to disperse the cold.”

Yu Niaoniao reached out to take the bowl and drank the ginger soup in one go.

Yu Pingping immediately picked up the lip gloss and touched up her makeup.

Dang Gui put the golden hairpin on Yu Niaoniao’s head. After she put on earrings, necklaces, and bracelets for Yu Niaoniao, she performed a series of other gestures. Finally, she stuffed a red and gold fan into her hand.

In that case, it was done.

Yu Niaoniao was afraid that she would miss the timing and urged.

“Go, go!”

Logically speaking, there were still many segments after the bride’s makeup.

However, time was tight now. Yu Niaoniao was not in the mood to care about red tape. Everything was simple at special moments!

Yu Pingping and Dang Gui helped her out.

When she reached the door, Yu Sheng squatted down in front of her.

“Sister, I’ll carry you out.”

This was also a custom. When a bride got married, she had to be carried out by her family brothers. Until she boarded the bridal sedan, her feet could not touch the ground.

Yu Niaoniao did not stand on ceremony and directly lay on Yu Sheng’s back. However, she waved her hand and ordered.

“Move out!”

Yu Sheng stood up with Yu Niaoniao on his back and walked forward.

Dang Gui and Yu Pingping followed.

They walked out of the Green Jade Residence and headed straight for the door.

Yu Niaoniao suddenly asked.

“Am I heavy?”

Yu Sheng said, “You’re not heavy.”

Yu Niaoniao said, “Then why are you walking so slowly?”

Yu Sheng was silent for a moment before finally choosing to answer truthfully.

“Well, you’re certainly a bit heavy.”

He had only carried her for a short distance when his arms and back ached. Every step was extremely heavy.

Yu Niaoniao knocked on his shoulder with her fan and said angrily.

“I’m so thin. How heavy can I be? You’re clearly too useless. Look at your small body. You must not have exercised much, right? You should learn from Duke Lang and train your body more. If you have nothing to do, practice martial arts.”

Yu Sheng panted and argued, “I’m different from my brother-in-law. He’s a general, and I’m a scholar.”

Yu Niaoniao said, “Although Duke Lang is a general, he’s also a scholar. Why can’t you practice martial arts? I think you’re too useless.”

Yu Sheng’s handsome face turned red.

Initially, he was still sad that his sister was about to get married. Now, he was not sad at all.

He only wished he could marry his sister off quickly.

At the thought of this, Yu Sheng gritted his teeth and quickened his pace.

In front of the Yu Residence’s door, Yu Kangtai was desperate.

Shen Rui planned to return to the palace and report this matter to his father. He asked Xiao Juan to leave with him but the latter refused.

Shen Rui looked at him resentfully.

“Why haven’t you given up yet? That Yu Niaoniao did not want to marry you at all. She had already run away! Even if you wait here until the end of time, she won’t appear! Why do you have to embarrass yourself?”

Xiao Juan said in a low voice, “I don’t believe she will run away from the marriage. There must be a misunderstanding. I must see her.”

Seeing that he was stubborn, Shen Rui’s anger rose immediately. He frowned and scolded.

“You’re really a blockhead! She’s deliberately avoiding you. How can you possibly see her? I’ll say this today. If you can see Yu Niaoniao today, I’ll eat the door of the Yu Residence!”

Just as he finished speaking, he suddenly heard the butler shout.

“The bride is out!”
