Transmigrated As My Former Uncle's Sweetheart - Chapter 938

Chapter 938: Did Awful Things To Her

Hearing this, Long Yang paused in his steps and arched an eyebrow.

Despite her tender age, she always spoke in the tone of an old woman.

She was just a young girl!

He did not need to obey her at all, but in the end, he still did as he was told and cleaned his hands.

When he returned, the dishes were already laid out on the table.

Lu Liangwei handed him a pair of chopsticks and hesitated briefly before explaining, “I made all these.”

“You did?” Long Yang took the chopsticks from her, unable to hide the surprise on his face. He never thought that she could cook.

Meeting his incredulous gaze, Lu Liangwei did not clarify further and merely said, “I haven’t cooked much since I found out I was pregnant. I hope these dishes are still to your liking.” She then filled a bowl with fish soup and placed it in front of him.

Staring at the delicious-smelling, milky-white fish soup before him, Long Yang suddenly felt a little glum.

Did she mean to say that although he had forgotten her, she hoped his food preferences remained unchanged?

He picked up the bowl wordlessly and took a sip.

A fresh and savory taste instantly filled his mouth, astonishing him greatly.

He had not tried the other dishes yet, but judging from this bowl of fish soup, he could tell that she was a good cook.

With her chopsticks, Lu Liangwei put some stir-fried pork with bamboo shoots in his bowl.

Long Yang continued to sample the dishes on the table one by one without a word.

Lu Liangwei did not speak either and began to eat away in concentration.

…

She had not eaten yet herself. She had worked hard for almost four hours to prepare this meal for him, and she was already starving.

Just then, Long Yang raised his eyes and glanced at her.

No matter how mature and prudent the girl opposite him pretended to be, he could still make out the youthfulness in her features.

All of a sudden, he was overwhelmed with guilt.

She was just a child, but she was already pregnant and pulled into his harem at such a young age.

She became the court officials’ subject of criticism today, but he could not remember a thing about her and had even picked on her in every way possible for the past few days.

However, even though he had no memory of her and treated her terribly, she was never particularly angry with him.

Aside from that time she cried after he pushed her in the imperial garden, she had always greeted him with a smile.

Even two nights ago, she did not refuse his unreasonable demands of her.

All this while, he had been dismissing her feelings.

He knew well that he was much older than her, but he kept doing and saying awful things to her.

Nevertheless, she endured all of it.

He was suddenly curious about her.

She was only sixteen this year, but the way she carried herself was not in line with her age. In fact, she possessed a calmness and composure far beyond her years.

“I can only make home-cooked dishes, and I can’t compare to the imperial chef. If you’re not used to my cooking, don’t force yourself. I can order the imperial kitchen to bring food over.” Lu Liangwei’s gentle voice broke his reverie.

Staring at her face shrouded in mist, Long Yang narrowed his eyes and suddenly blurted out, “Lu Liangwei, what kind of person are you exactly?”

Lu Liangwei was putting a piece of fish on the plate in front of him and was taken aback to hear the question. When she came back to her senses, she raised an eyebrow and smiled faintly. “The same kind as you—the kind with two eyes, a nose, and a mouth.”

Long Yang frowned. “That’s not what I meant…”

Lu Liangwei’s smile disappeared from her face. “Then what are you trying to say, Your Majesty?”

Long Yang pursed his lip. Meeting her shimmering eyes, he fell silent for a while before saying, “It’s nothing, actually. I just feel that you’re different from other women.”
