“She returned with a young gentleman. His face was covered, so I couldn’t see who he was. But from the Princess’s demeanor, she seems to know him,” Fu Xinan said with his head lowered.
“Good, we’ll return immediately. Long Yun, recall all troops!” Long Junhao ordered and rushed back to the post station with Fu Xinan.
As he entered, he heard Long Zhen and Long Xin calling “Daddy!” His heart sank, realizing it was he who had rescued Lan’er. It seemed his great-grandfather was right; he would always be around them.
He organized his thoughts and stepped inside.
“Junhao, you’re back! Come, let me introduce you. This is Ling Feng!”
Long Junhao shook his hand, noting the unexpected presence in their marital life. Though scarred, his handsomeness added a tragic beauty, radiating an aura that drew people closer. No wonder Lan’er loved him.
As Long Junhao studied him, Ling Feng also took a moment to observe. This was the rumored cold and ruthless Royal Prince, exuding a royal aura, intimidating without anger, and showing tenderness only for Lan Lan. They shook hands firmly, recognizing mutual appreciation and understanding.
Three years later, a carriage arrived at the Royal Prince’s mansion. Lan Lan and Long Junhao prepared to board when Long Zhen and Long Xin rushed out.
Long Junhao sighed, glancing at Lan Lan, “Shall we bring them?”
“Remember, no mischief!” Lan Lan warned. These two kids were clever, always full of schemes that turned the mansion upside down.
Ling Feng managed his business in their previous home in TianAN City. Lan Lan visited for a month every two months, and he eagerly awaited her arrival. He was content; after all, she was still nominally a Princess and had to maintain appearances. Occasional time together was enough.
He felt heaven had been very kind to him and was in awe of Long Junhao’s generosity in bringing them together.
Hearing the cheerful laughter outside, he quickly opened the door to welcome them in. “Chen Sao, please call someone to prepare hot water; the Wang Ye and his group have arrived.” Chen Sao had requested to come here herself, feeling uncomfortable in the Wang Fu and wanting the responsibility of managing the household.
