Transmigration: of Mysteries and Songs

Chapter 152: Proceeding to Dingtao Province

"Come to Dingtao with me," Situ's expression and tone were calm. He and Feng Luodi were at a pavilion that was built beside a lake, surrounded by evergreen monstera and periwinkles. Near the pavilion, coloured wine glasses and plates of exquisite snacks were placed on the stone table. There were also some plates of exquisite snacks prepared.

Situ was in casual clothes and had a purple-gold belt around his waist. He let down some of his hair and it made him looked more natural and suave. His gaze was not intense, looking calmly at Feng Luodi. Feng Luodi was wearing a light pink dress with some wreaths and pendants. The look was simple but elegant. She half-leaned against the pillar and smiled at Situ.

"Is that an order or a plea?"

Situ raised his eyebrows and held out his hand. "What do you think?"

Feng Luodi had a gentle smile on her face. She slowly walked over and held Situ's hand before sitting down beside him. She shook her head. "I can't tell."

Situ felt helpless. He couldn't do anything to Feng Luodi when she decided to act blur.

"It's a plea." He picked up a snack and held it near Feng Luodi's mouth. Feng Luodi opened her mouth and chewed on the snack. After finishing it, she gave a bright smile and said casually, "My mother and brother are in poor health now. Jianqiu is worried about Concubine Yao's delivery. Do you think I should leave Chang'an now?"

Situ gritted his teeth and pulled Feng Luodi into his arms.

"There will be people taking care of them. You don't have to worry."

"No," Feng Luodi shook her head lightly, her face indifferent, "I take care of them because I cared for them. Even if there are people already taking care of them, I will continue to do so."

Situ was unhappy. He looked at Feng Luodi intently. "You just want to disagree with me."

Feng Luodi continued smiling. "How smart of you."

Situ forcefully squeezed Feng Luodi's hand and gave her a fierce look. "Are you agreeing?"

"You make me want to do it even more." Feng Luodi joked. When she saw Situ's sour face, she smiled triumphantly and hugged him by his neck.

"Are you angry already? I am just joking."

Situ grabbed her hand. "You knew that I won't do anything to you."

Feng Luodi smile got brighter. The troubles that had been bothering her for the past few days disappeared slightly.

Situ felt relieved. He always had a bad feeling. Feng Luodi kept saying that she would leave one day. What happened if he finished his business in Dingtao only to come back and realise that she was gone? He never had such an uneasy feeling before. The moment Feng Luodi appeared, his life started to change.

Feng Luodi noticed the emotions in Situ's eyes and her smile faded a little. She reached out and swept his hair away, placing her hands on his eyebrows.

Both of them really treasured the time they had now. As for the future, no one knew what would happen.

The head steward Xiang Bo hurried over and bowed at them more than then ten feet away. "Master, there is an important guest."

Situ looked up and saw a person in hooded cloak right behind the head steward. When the person saw Situ and Feng Luodi, he took off his hood and smiled gently at them. However, the panic on his face was evident.

Situ was surprised and stood up immediately, "Your Highness?"

The person was none other than the First Prince who rarely visited any officials house. He came at such an interesting time. Even Feng Luodi knew that a lot of people were keeping an eye on the Duke of Anping. She was not afraid of any rumours but the First Prince was different. He was in the same situation as Situ.
