HRPM – Chapter 419 I am his fiancée

Suddenly, Yang Ruoyao changed the subject and turned to Bulaya.

“Miss Aya, are you planning to continue traveling with us?”

Xiao Luo nodded.

“Yes. She traveled thousands of miles from beyond the frontier, only to be sold into a brothel. She’s just a young woman all alone. I wouldn’t feel at ease leaving her by herself.”

As he spoke, he turned to look at the innocent-looking Bulaya, his voice full of concern.

“That’s right! These past few days have been absolutely miserable for me. I’ve never suffered so much in my life. If I hadn’t happened to run into Brother Luo, I would’ve been doomed.”

Recalling the auction the previous night, Bulaya still shuddered with fear. She had come within a hair’s breadth of becoming a plaything for men and losing her chastity.

The people of the Central Plains were terrifying. They casually tricked women into being sold as if it were nothing.

The people beyond the frontier were much more simple and honest.

“Hey, Bulaya, what’s your relationship with the Seventeenth Prince? Why did you travel all the way from beyond the frontier just to see him?”

Oblivious as ever, Muyun completely failed to notice the strange atmosphere inside the carriage and bluntly asked the question that had been on her mind.

Seeing the killing intent practically radiating from Jin Luoluo, Xiao Yu knew she was upset. Unable to bear seeing her unhappy, he quietly kicked Muyun.

“Why did you kick me?” Muyun asked, completely bewildered.

Xiao Yu was speechless.

Bulaya sensed the turbulent atmosphere in the carriage. She glanced at Jin Luoluo, who looked as though she might spontaneously combust at any moment.

Pouting playfully, she leaned against Xiao Luo and said with a bright smile,

“I’m Brother Luo’s fiancée. Of course I traveled thousands of miles to chase after my future husband.”

“Aya, don’t talk nonsense.”

Xiao Luo’s usually calm expression froze. Looking embarrassed, he gently pushed Bulaya away.

He hurriedly glanced at Jin Luoluo. Seeing her calmly rubbing her mahjong tiles as though nothing had happened, disappointment couldn’t help but rise in his heart.

Bulaya puffed out her cheeks.

“How is that nonsense? Before my father died, you promised him yourself.”

The moment those words were spoken, the atmosphere inside the carriage froze solid.

Xiao Che was secretly delighted.

Jin Luoluo, now you should finally give up. Seventeenth Uncle already has a fiancée. Even if you like him, it’ll only be unrequited. The two of you can never be together.

Feeling invigorated, he smiled and said,

“Then congratulations, Seventeenth Uncle. So you’ve been hiding our future Seventeenth Aunt all this time, and she’s finally willing to let us meet her. No wonder you’ve kept your distance from women all these years. Miss Aya really is beautiful and adorable.”

“It seems the royal family will soon be celebrating a wedding,” Yang Ruoyao added with a smile. “Congratulations, Your Highness, the Seventeenth Prince.”
