Chapter 945: She Should Be Getting Beauties For Him With An Open Heart Translation
He remained standing where he was for a long time before turning back and returning to the coaching inn.
Meanwhile, Wanyan Luosang had begun sizing up Lu Liangwei in a rude manner after she entered the carriage.
Lu Liangwei darted a look at her and noticed the hostility in her eyes. It did not bother Lu Liangwei and she spoke to break the silence. “Princess Luosang, have you gotten used to being in Great Shang after all this time?”
Wanyan Luosang finally stopped staring at Lu Liangwei with animosity when she heard this. She forced a small smile. “Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. I’ve adapted well here.”
Lu Liangwei nodded at her reply and did not speak another word.
Wanyan Luosang frowned as she looked at Lu Liangwei. She felt a little annoyed at how Lu Liangwei put on a pretense of being mature.
Lu Liangwei was clearly about the same age as she was, what right did she have to be loved and doted on so much by the Emperor of Great Shang? He had forgotten all about her, so how was it that he still cared for her so much?
Could it be because of her beauty?
Wanyan Luosang could not help touching her own face at this thought. She considered her face to be pretty too.
Wanyan Luosang did not think she had lost out to Lu Liangwei in terms of looks.
“Your Highness, wouldn’t you feel lonely for being alone in such a huge imperial harem?” She narrowed her eyes and challenged Lu Liangwei when she finally found herself unable to tolerate it anymore. Her tone was filled with enmity.
If not for Lu Liangwei, she believed that the Emperor of Great Shang would not dislike her.
She had many admirers in Danjue, but Wanyan Luosang had a high standard and did not care for any of them.
Coming to Great Shang was like opening a door to a brand new world that gave her lots of ideas and knowledge.
She never thought that men could be so good-looking without having any trace of being feminine, instead being filled with a masculine and heroic charm that continued to attract her.
Among them, the crème de la crème would be the Emperor of Great Shang.
He was the most handsome man she had seen in her life.
She was a Danjue princess and by right, was a perfect match for such a man.
However, the man she wanted had another woman in his heart.
This upset her greatly.
It was like an item that she developed an interest in being snatched by someone else in advance.
This had made her unable to put it out of her mind, and at the same time, it incurred her wrath and hatred.
If she was the one who had met him first, the Emperor of Great Shang would have been hers.
Lu Liangwei finally turned to look at her when she heard Wanyan Luosang’s words. Lu Liangwei found this funny. She had never thought that Wanyan Luosang could not hold her temper!
“Why would Princess Luosang think I would feel lonely?” She asked while smiling. Lu Liangwei did not seem offended or unhappy. Instead, the amusement in her eyes had a teasing look in them.
Wanyan Luosang was taken aback. She did not believe Lu Liangwei did not understand the words she meant.
She licked her lips and looked at Lu Liangwei’s pretty eyes, trying to suppress the discomfort she was feeling. She said without hesitation, “The Emperor of Great Shang is a remarkable man. He is a man of stature and if there is only one woman standing by his side, that simply would not match up to his status. What do you think, Your Highness?”
Lu Liangwei’s smile faded slightly as she looked at Wanyan Luosang in disbelief.
Wanyan Luosang was implying that a man as good as Long Yang should not only have one woman by his side, and Lu Liangwei should be open-hearted enough to take the initiative to get more beauties for him.
“A man’s nobility is never represented by how many women he has by his side. There is no need for you to demean yourself this way, Princess Wanyan! Besides…” Lu Liangwei paused.
“What right or place do you have for saying such words, Princess Wanyan?”
Wanyan Luosang choked as her face turned a mixture of red and green. She felt a strange sense of inferiority which prevented her from replying for quite a while.
“I…”
A long moment passed before she eventually stammered, “I don’t mean anything with my words. Please don’t take them to heart, Your Highness.”
Lu Liangwei said nothing, but picked up a pot from the table and poured her a cup of tea.
“Thank you.” Wanyan Luosang took the cup and sipped. The sense of inferiority she felt slowly disappeared.
“It is not important whether I took those words to heart. What’s important is what Princess Wanyan meant by them.” Lu Liangwei turned to look at her casually, but it was difficult to ignore the sharp look in her eyes.
Wanyan Luosang paused in movement and her fingers clenched tightly onto the teacup. She looked a little nervously at Lu Liangwei.
Lu Liangwei was not expecting a reply from her and she continued, “I’m afraid you don’t really know Long Yang. He had never needed a woman for him to shine.”
A smile appeared on Lu Liangwei’s lips as her slender, fair fingers gently caressed the pattern on the side of the cup. She sounded confident and sure of herself.
