Chapter 6 Taking the bait or not
It was weirdly quiet for a while.
Only the sound of drumming was still ringing around.
And the atmosphere became more aggressive.
Lin Mengya only felt lucky she had worn this red veil, or she didn’t know whether she could bear the eyes on her.
Because she knew how sharp they were.
But she wasn’t aware that there was a hint of exploration under the eyes.
Long Tianhao looked at Lin Mengya sitting calmly in the sedan chair, and thought of her behaviors just now, “Was this woman…really a fool?”
Furthermore, his man reported that he saw her spit blood after eating the dates and die. How could she still be sitting here alive?
As a secret guard for years, his man never made mistakes. There was only one reason that she didn’t die after she took the poison.
It was silent for a long time, and Lin Mengya was nearly impatient.
Then she saw the red clothing approach.
And she, who was calm just now, became nervous for no reasons.
Lin Mengya didn’t know what he was going to do next, so her heartbeat sped up like a drum.
She saw the man walk closer and stop by her side. Then a hand reached under her knees; the other hand held her shoulder. She was unexpectedly lifted in his arms at once.
The speed was so fast that Lin Mengya thought he must be afraid that he would regret and leave in the next second.
Then Lin Mengya’s body was unbalanced and almost fell from his arms. She threw her arms around his neck so that she could steady herself.
Long Tianhao froze and refrained himself from pushing her away. Then he recovered as usual.
Everyone’s eyes stared at them like bronze bells, with mouths widely opened like they could swallow several dates at one time. How could Prince Yu…
Lin Mengya recovered as well. Her lips lifted slightly, and she slowly shook her sleeves.
A few dates rolled down on the ground.
Feeling the tremble in his arms and seeing the dates on the floor, he knew the woman was intentional.
She was definitely not foolish.
Long Tianhao stopped his feet and waited to see what the woman would do.
Lin Mengya said to his ear, “Prince Yu, these are dates with the wishes of having babies early. They are from my younger sister. I still have two in my sleeves. Do you want to eat them?”
She dropped an arm from his neck and took out two fresh dates in front of him.
Long Tianhao became angry at once. The dates were highly toxic, and he couldn’t believe that this woman asked him to eat them.
However, thinking of her intentional actions, he knew she would come up with some tricks later.
So he didn’t mind cooperating with her.
The crowd were shaking their heads and sighing that the woman was indeed a fool, who would be kicked out by Prince Yu. But Prince Yu responded, “OK.”
After that, he opened his mouth and got ready to eat them.
People around were shocked and thought in mind that Prince Yu must be bewitched today.
Only Housekeeper Chen’s face turned white. He was from the Family Lin. He timidly stopped Prince Yu and said, “Prince Yu, the dates can’t be eaten.”
Housekeeper Chen was filled with anxiety when he saw what the matchmaker did, and he feared that she would betray Lin Mengwu.
But just after he could slightly calm, he saw a more frightening scene!
If Prince Yu took the poisoned dates, the whole Lin family, the Queen, and Crown Prince would be implicated. Therefore, he had to stop that.
A faint sneer hanged on Lin Mengya’s face. They did swallow the bait as she expected.
