79 Does His Highness Li Think of Our Yaoyao as a Canary and Want Her as His Mistress?
“His Highness is not married yet, and Miss Shen is also Prince Zhao’s fiancée. It doesn’t make sense for us to live together.” There was a harmless smile on Dark Crow’s baby face, but his tone was sharp and cold. “Therefore, His Highness has prepared this small courtyard for Miss Shen to stay in temporarily.”
“Does His Highness Li think of our Yaoyao as a canary and want her as his mistress?” Shen Yuyan had originally felt that Huo Junhan’s request was unreasonable, and he was holding back a ball of anger. Now, he even felt that Huo Junhan treated Yaoyao worse than a concubine by not letting her into the manor. “Where’s His Highness Li? I want to see him!”
“Third Brother…” Seeing that Shen Yuyan was really angry, Shen Yaowei hurriedly got out of the carriage and quickly walked to Shen Yuyan’s side. She grabbed his arm and said, “Third Brother, don’t be angry. Ninth Imperial Uncle’s concerns are also right.”
Shen Yuyan glanced sideways at Shen Yaowei and took in the girl’s slightly pale face.
Shen Yaowei also knew very well what it meant for a man to buy a house outside for a woman to settle down in.
Coupled with what Dark Crow had just said, no matter how she looked at it, Huo Junhan treated her as a disgraceful mistress.
For a moment, she felt that Huo Junhan was like a fog. Shen Yaowei still felt a little aggrieved, but now was not the time to fuss over it. She raised her head and looked straight at Shen Yuyan. “Living here is indeed good for me and my Ninth Imperial Uncle.”
Shen Yuyan had grown up with Shen Yaowei, so how could he not tell that she was aggrieved?
Her eyes darkened, and Shen Yuyan gently patted Shen Yaowei’s hand that was holding his arm. “Alright, I understand.”
“Miss Shen, I’ll bring you in.” Dark Crow gestured at Shen Yaowei.
Shen Yaowei nodded slightly and said to Shen Yuyan, “Third Brother, I’ll go in first. Go back and tell Father not to worry. I’ll go home to visit from time to time.”
According to Huo Junhan’s request, she could only come to his place alone and could not even bring Zi Yun along.
Therefore, she couldn’t invite Shen Yuyan in with her.
With that, she turned around and walked towards the door of the house.
Shen Yuyan looked at Shen Yaowei’s slender back with a determined expression.
If he was strong enough, Yaoyao wouldn’t have to do this.
In that case, he…
Shen Yaowei did not notice how complicated Shen Yuyan’s gaze was behind her. After entering the courtyard, she was attracted by its leisurely beauty.
The courtyard was not big and only had four rooms in total, but it was decorated as elegantly and beautifully as a painting.
In the middle of the courtyard, a few girls who looked like maidservants and two grannies were kneeling down.
“Nuan Ying, come and greet Miss Shen,” Dark Crow said to a yellow-robed girl kneeling at the front.
Nuan Ying took a few steps forward while still kneeling. She closed the distance between her and Shen Yaowei. “Miss Shen, I’ll be in charge of taking care of your daily life.”
Shen Yaowei looked at Nuan Ying.
The girl in front of her was about 17 or 18 years old. She was pleasant-looking and had a calm aura.
Sensing something extraordinary from Nuan Ying’s calm aura, Shen Yaowei looked at the others kneeling on the ground.
The others were the same as Nuan Ying. They looked calm and ordinary, but their auras were actually deep and bottomless.
The corners of her lips curled up slightly, and Shen Yaowei revealed her signature rabbit-like smile. “Get up, all of you. I don’t like complicated rules. You don’t have to kneel for no reason in the future.”
The people kneeling on the ground thanked Shen Yaowei and stood up.
“Miss Shen, His Highness will be back tonight. If you want to go out, you have to bring Nuan Ying. You have to come back before the sun sets,” Dark Crow said to Shen Yaowei.
