Chapter 387 Hold Your Hand and Grow Old with You

Yan Wanchu looked at Yan Luo and shook her head.

Then, she quickly said, "I haven't asked him. Besides..."

Before Yan Wanchu could finish her words, Yan Lingjun interrupted her, "Sister, he hides himself deeply. Maybe he is..."

Hearing Yan Lingjun's remarks on Runyu, Yan Wanchu was getting anxious. Then, she looked at Yan Lingjun and said to him, "Brother, I won't have you say such things about him. His love for me is real."

Yan Lingjun continued, "Sister, you are so sure of that. How can you prove that?"

Then, Yan Wanchu said, "Just because I was neither relative nor kin of him, but he used his strength to heal me after I fell off the cliff. And because he has never given up looking for me after I left. I am afraid that would not be the case for ordinary people. Brother, how do you expect me to prove that?"

Hearing that, Yan Lingjun did not know how to retort. Using one's strength to heal another person meant a loss of his strength. If it were him, he would heal his sister. However, if the person were a stranger, he might not be like that.

At this time, Runyu walked in.

Ji followed him coming in and said hastily, "Young Master, you cannot go in there."

After Runyu getting into the room, Ji quickly knelt and said, "Your Highness, I fail to stop him. This..."

"You can back off." Said Yan Luo.

Hearing that, Ji nodded and got out of the room.

Yan Wanchu looked at Runyu and walked up to him. She said, "Didn’t I ask you to wait for me? Why do you come here?"

Runyu smiled at Yan Wanchu. Then, he held her hand and came up to Yan Luo and Ruan Yien.

Runyu said, "Your Highness, Your..."

Before he could finish his greeting, Ruan Yien on the side interrupted him, "Ghost Immortal, forget those formalities."

Yan Luo looked at Runyu and said to him with a smile, "Ghost Immortal, thanks a lot for saving my daughter when she fell the cliff a few years ago."

Runyu said, "Your Highness, never mind about that. Meeting Wanchu is a fortune in my life."

Yan Luo glanced at Yan Wanchu and then asked Runyu, "Ghost Immortal, I heard all the things about you from Wanchu just now. What are you going to do next?"

It was beyond Yan Wanchu's expectation that her mother asked Runyu so directly. She felt a little embarrassed.

Hearing Yan Luo's question, Runyu turned to look at Yan Wanchu and then took her hand. At that time, Yan Wanchu was the only one in Runyu's eyes. Then, he said softly, "Hold your hand, and grow old together."

Hearing that, Yan Wanchu colored slightly and lowered her head.

Then, Yan Luo looked at Yan Wanchu and asked, "What about you?"

Being asked by Yan Luo, Yan Wanchu turned around and took a deep breath. Then, she looked at Yan Luo and said, "Mother, I decided to be with Runyu after taking the throne back."

"Have you thought it through?" Asked Yan Luo.

Yan Wanchu nodded, "Yes."

Then, Yan Luo said with a nod, "OK. I respect your decision."

Hearing that, Yan Lingjun on the side raised his head suddenly to look at Ruan Yien. However, Ruan Yien looked at him, shaking his head.

Hearing that Yan Luo agreed, Yan Wanchu could not help looking at Runyu in delight.

Runyu said to Yan Luo with his hands arched, "Your Highness, please rest at ease. As long as I am with Wanchu, she won't be hurt by anyone in the future."

This was also the first time Runyu leaned forward and saluted.

Hearing that, Yan Luo nodded.

Yan Wanchu looked at Yan Luo and said, "Then... Mother, if nothing else, we'll leave first."

Yan Luo agreed. Then, Runyu and Yan Wanchu walked out of the room.

After they had left, Yan Lingjun on the side walked forward and said, "Mother, how can you say yes? Though Ghost Immortal has preeminent skills, in the wide world, he may have some..."

Yan Luo interrupted Yan Lingjun, supporting her head with her hand, "That's enough. I'm tired, and we'll set out to the Arctic Mountain tomorrow morning. You could go back."

Yan Lingjun still wanted to say something, but Liu Ling on his side pulled him by his sleeve. Then, Yan Lingjun said, "Yes."

Then, he turned around and walked outside.

Liu Ling arched his hands to Yan Luo and Ruan Yien, and then he quickly followed Yan Lingjun.

When getting out of Yan Luo's room, Yan Lingjun asked Liu Ling behind him, "Why did you stop me?"

Liu Ling said, "Your Highness, because Her Highness has agreed, and we could see that Ghost Immortal treats Wanchu..."

Before Liu Ling could finish his words, Yan Lingjun turned to him and asked, "What about you?"

Hearing that, Liu Ling was surprised for a moment and gave a wry smile. He said, "Now we are at the critical moment. I cannot lose the sense of propriety because of love affairs. As long as Her Highness likes him and has a good life, I'll..."

"Really? Don't you feel pain in your heart?" Yan Lingjun asked Liu Ling rhetorically.

Hearing that, Liu Ling froze.

Seeing that Liu Ling did not say anything, Yan Lingjun turned around and walked towards his place.

He knew that Liu Ling liked Wanchu since he was young.

Seeing Yan Lingjun walking away, Liu Ling followed him after a while.

As long as Wanchu could find her happiness and that Ghost Immortal treated her well, he had nothing to be sad about.

However, if he knew that Ghost Immortal did something bad to Wanchu, he would find him and fight with him regardless of his life.

Thinking of this, Liu Ling quickened his pace to catch up with Yan Lingjun.

All of them had left.

Ruan Yien stood up and walked up to Yan Luo, "Luo, Lingjun acted like this because he is worried about Wanchu."

Yan Luo raised her head to look at Ruan Yien and said, "Honey, Lingjun is still childish and thoughtless when doing something. When things come to an end, I'm afraid..."

Ruan Yien took Yan Luo in his arms before she finished her words. Then, he said, "Lingjun is still inexperienced. When everything ends, he must have some changes after being tempered for some time. Besides, we are here with him."

Hearing that, Yan Luo nodded, "Hope so."

She was a little surprised by Wanchu's matter today. She did not expect that she knew Ghost Immortal.

What was more, they fell in love with each other. Though she had some concerns about Runyu's identity, worrying that Wanchu could not get used to messy affairs in the wide world.

However, the Palace was also a place where people deceived and blackmailed each other, wasn't it?

Though the current situation was favorable to them, it would be inevitable to fight a battle if Yan Ji did not give up the throne as they expected.

There would be many variables in the future, so it was not a bad thing for Wanchu to have a person protecting her.

Since then, perhaps it would be a good thing for Wanchu to be with Runyu, getting rid of disputes and troubles.

She could see from Runyu's eyes that he loved Wanchu, not only for a single day. His eyes were full of compassion and love when he looked at Wanchu.

She believed that Runyu could protect her.

At this time, Yan Wanchu took Runyu back to his place and said to him with a smile, "Yu, then... I go back and rest. See you tomorrow."

Then, Yan Wanchu turned around and walked outside.

After Yan Wanchu took a few steps, Runyu stopped her from behind. "Wanchu."

Hearing Runyu calling her, Yan Wanchu stopped to ask him, "What's wrong?"

Runyu hugged her tightly from behind.

Yan Wanchu beamed with pleasure and put her hand on Runyu's hand.

Runyu whispered in Yan Wanchu's ear, "Wanchu, I won't let you disappear from me."

Hearing that, Yan Wanchu removed Runyu's hand and turned around to hug Runyu tightly.

Smelling the faint fragrance of Runyu, Yan Wanchu closed her eyes as if they had come back to the Wangyou Cliff several years ago.

At that time, Runyu practiced sword in the back hill while she sat on the side, watching him.

When she felt tired, she snuggled up to Runyu to rest. When she felt hungry, Runyu took her to pick up petals and made flower cakes for her.

Now that she thought of it, it was truly a happy time.

When she regained her memory, she did not want to make Runyu sad, so she chose to leave quietly. She thought Runyu would hate her for it, but she didn't expect that Runyu had found her for so many years.

Thinking of this, Yan Wanchu found her eyelashes wet with tears, and then she put on a smile again.

Yan Wanchu gently pushed Runyu away and said to him, "Yu, that's OK. Let's get married when we come back from the Arctic Mountain, and then I won't leave you again."

Hearing that, Runyu nodded.

Runyu continued to ask, "Stay with me for a while, okay?"

Yan Wanchu gave a sweet smile and said, "OK."

They hugged each other and sat on the bed, looking at the snow outside the window.

The snow had stopped, making the ground a vast expanse of whiteness. The moon had already climbed onto the branches.

At this time, Yan Lingjun went back to his room and sat down.

He could not understand it and thought that his mother was too hasty today. How could she agree on Wanchu being together with Runyu after meeting him only the first time?

Liu Ling looked at Yan Lingjun and said with his hands arched, "Your Highness, it's late now. Please rest early. I'll set out to the Arctic Mountain tomorrow morning, so I'll go back and check if there's something I forget to bring."

Then, Liu Ling turned around to leave.

At this time, Yan Lingjun stopped him, "Liu Ling, wait for a moment."

Hearing that, Liu Ling turned back and said, "Your Highness, anything else?"

Yan Lingjun walked to the door, looked around the outside, and then closed the door.

Seeing that, Liu Ling frowned slightly.

Yan Lingjun pulled him to sit down.

"Brother Liu, I have a favor to ask you. Hope you can help me." Yan Lingjun looked at Liu Ling and whispered to him.

Hearing that, Liu Ling felt confused and said, "Your Highness, you can just say it."

"All right. You find a way. I also want to go to the Arctic Mountain." Yan Lingjun said straightforwardly.

Hearing that, Liu Ling stood up and spoke loudly, "Your Highness, this is a serious thing. I cannot promise you."

"Hush..." Seeing that Liu Ling reacted dramatically, Yan Lingjun put his hand on his mouth, signaling Liu Ling to be quiet.

Liu Ling sat down again and said with a lower voice, "Your Highness, I cannot promise you this."

"Why?" Yan Lingjun asked.

Liu Ling said, "Your Highness, there must be some considerations of Her Highness for not letting you go with us. Besides, as the trip to the Arctic Mountain is full of dangers, it may also be good for your safety."
