I traveled through time just for the jade hairpin, I never wanted to be the queen

Chapter 136 Not Telling the Truth

"Come to think of it, yes." He Tingxi nodded.

"Then why in advance? Why haven't I heard you say it before?" Ling Xiyue suddenly realized this problem.

He Tingxi paused for a moment before explaining slowly, "I suddenly remembered it today. Didn't you and I go out together today? Although your makeup skills are very good, I am worried that if, I just say if, someone with ulterior motives notices it, it will be a serious matter, so I must take the initiative and prepare in advance, just in case."

After listening to He Tingxi's explanation, Ling Xiyue was a little confused.

"You mean, no matter how good our makeup skills are, there will always be people who recognize us? Just in case, it's better to prepare in advance? Is that what you mean?"

"Yes, you have a good ability to understand." He Tingxi praised with a smile.

Although Ling Xiyue received the praise, she still felt that there was something wrong.

"Is this really the reason? Why do I feel that the person you are on guard against is King Lu?" Ling Xiyue raised her doubts.

After hearing what Ling Xiyue said, He Tingxi felt a little guilty, and he naturally avoided Ling Xiyue's gaze.

"How could you think of him? He couldn't have recognized us with just a quick glance." He Tingxi denied.

Ling Xiyue was stunned for a moment and nodded.

"Yes, he only had a quick glance. He couldn't possibly recognize us."

"Yeah." He Tingxi also nodded.

Ling Xiyue thought of He Tingxi using a cane and suddenly felt a little guilty.

"I should have known better than to go out. I didn't expect that going out once would cause so much trouble. Now that you've gone out early, I always feel like you're helping me clean up the mess."

Seeing Ling Xiyue was upset about this, He Tingxi reached out his hand, hugged Ling Xiyue into his arms, and comforted her: "Don't think too much, it has nothing to do with you, I am just used to preparing for a rainy day. Your makeup skills are very good, you must have confidence in yourself."

"Really?" Ling Xiyue was still a little skeptical.

"Really. You are by my side, so you don't need to worry or be bothered too much. You just need to be happy. Think about it, did you have fun today?" He Tingxi changed the subject.

When Ling Xiyue thought of roast duck, a smile slowly appeared on her face.

"Not bad. The biggest achievement today is that I lassoed a duck and made it into a roast duck."

"After you are out of confinement, I will take you out to the street openly and play for a whole day and night until you have fun." He Tingxi promised.

"Okay." Ling Xiyue nodded and said nothing more.

But, he looked as if he was thinking about something.

Seeing Ling Xiyue remained silent, He Tingxi asked with concern: "What's wrong? Why are you suddenly so depressed?"

Ling Xiyue was stunned for a moment, then forced a smile.

"I was thinking, Tingxi, after you can walk, you will definitely be busier than you are now. I'm afraid you won't have time to accompany me anymore?"

He Tingxi smiled when he heard this. He comforted her, "What are you talking about? No matter how busy you are, you can still make time, unless you don't want to."

"Hey, what you said seems to make sense." Ling Xiyue looked serious.

"This is a fact. If someone always tells you that he is busy, he is not really busy, but he just doesn't want to bother with you." He Tingxi continued to explain.

"I see. Does that mean that as long as I ask, you will make time to accompany me, no matter when?" Ling Xiyue looked at He Tingxi expectantly.

"Of course, whatever you want, no matter what it is, I will give it to you, including the position of queen in the future." He Tingxi looked at Ling Xiyue affectionately.

"The position of Queen?"

Ling Xiyue couldn't help but widen her eyes. After a pause, she continued, "I didn't say I wanted to be the queen?"

Seeing Ling Xiyue's surprised look, He Tingxi smiled and said, "I know that you didn't value my status when you married me. You stayed by my side just hoping that I could protect Ling Junqi and get rid of Madam He."

Ling Xiyue was stunned. She stared at He Tingxi and thought to herself: Your Highness, you are indeed a meticulous person. This was what I thought at the beginning, and it is still the same now.

"But I can't just do this for you. I have to give you all the best. Letting you become the queen is my guarantee for you. I want everyone to know that your position in my heart is unique." He Tingxi continued. At this moment, his eyes were full of Ling Xiyue.

When Ling Xiyue saw that He Tingxi's eyes were full of her, she suddenly felt guilty. She lowered her eyes and didn't dare to look He Tingxi in the eye again.

"Tingxi, I'm not worthy." Ling Xiyue said guiltily.

"Don't say such things. If you are not worthy, who else is? You have been with me all the way through my most difficult times and have helped me many times. With you by my side, I feel safe and secure. I already rely on you in my heart."

He Tingxi continued to speak affectionately, and then he kissed Ling Xiyue on the forehead.

"Depend on me? What will you do if I'm not by your side?" Ling Xiyue asked tentatively.

He Tingxi was startled when he heard this. His face darkened instantly. He asked, "Xiyue, you still want to leave me? Right?"

"Return? Tingxi, why do you say return?" Ling Xiyue was also a little frightened, she asked hurriedly.

"I always had the feeling before that you wanted to leave me? What you said today has deepened my thought. Tell me, why do you want to leave me? Where are you going to go after leaving me?" He Tingxi asked seriously.

Ling Xiyue was stunned, and couldn't help muttering in her heart: It turns out that His Highness has seen through my thoughts for a long time, and even guessed that I wanted to run away. No, I will never admit it, otherwise, he will definitely take action against Ling Junqi and ruin Ling Junqi's future.

Ling Xiyue forced a smile, holding He Tingxi's face with both hands, and said softly: "Tingxi, I think you have become too sensitive and delicate. The whole world belongs to the king, where can I go? I am your wife, and now I am pregnant with your child, why should I leave you? Your words are very strange. Don't worry, I will stay by your side and not go anywhere."

"Are you telling the truth?" He Tingxi confirmed again.

"Of course, don't worry."

Ling Xiyue even kissed He Tingxi on the lips, and then said sweetly: "How can I bear to leave you?"

After being kissed by Ling Xiyue, He Tingxi became excited instantly. Without saying a word, he excitedly kissed Ling Xiyue passionately.

Ling Xiyue was stunned, and worried that He Tingxi would think too much, so she responded to He Tingxi's kiss.

The two kissed passionately.

After a long time, the two stopped. He Tingxi pressed his face against Ling Xiyue's, and his slightly rapid breathing lingered in Ling Xiyue's ears.

Ling Xiyue instantly sensed what He Tingxi meant, but seeing that He Tingxi never mentioned it, she understood He Tingxi's concerns.

After thinking for a while, she whispered in He Tingxi's ear: "Tingxi, just be gentle."
