I insist

Chapter 332: Tracking

The scene from earlier was still fresh in Song Miqiu's mind, and he noticed that Yu Huailin didn't give him a friendly look when he came up.

"Where did you go?"

Yu Huailin took the lantern out from behind his back.

"I saw that you really liked it, so I sent someone to buy it. This is the first time I've given you something."

Song Miqiu realized that no matter how much other women liked Yu Huailin, he was still only good to her.

My mood quickly improved.

Just then, the food arrived.

"Hurry up and eat. You must be starving after riding in a carriage and walking all that."

Looking at the sumptuous meal on the table, Song Miqiu found Yu Huailin more agreeable.

Thinking to myself, "Since you're so sincere, I'll let you off this time."

During the meal, Yu Huailin kept putting food on Song Miqiu's plate, barely managing to eat a few bites himself.

Just when the atmosphere was just right, a woman came up carrying a lantern.

Song Miqiu immediately recognized that this woman was one of the women who had just been chasing Yu Huailin.

Sure enough, under Song Miqiu's watchful gaze, the woman walked towards Yu Huailin with shining eyes.

This woman was dressed in extremely pink, and her rosy cheeks were on a completely different level from Liu Xiaoyue's.

What could Song Miqiu do? She immediately put down her chopsticks, and her appetite vanished.

"What are you looking at? I'm here to see you."

"Young master, this is a lantern that I made myself. I'm giving it to you today, hoping that you will remember me when you see it in the future."

Yu Huailin saw that after getting rid of Liu Xiaoyue, another unknown woman had appeared.

I didn't give her any chance and rejected her outright.

"First, I don't know you. Second, I won't accept any lanterns from anyone. Don't waste your time here, just leave."

Yu Huailin had made his point clear enough; since the woman dared to come over, she must have been prepared.

They don't mind hearing a rejection.

"Young master, don't you want to get to know me?"

She speaks much more bluntly than Liu Xiaoyue.

Not only that, the woman sat down opposite Yu Huailin after saying this, directly pushing Song Miqiu aside.

How could Song Miqiu possibly tolerate this?

He placed both hands on the table, leaving no room for the woman.

Yu Huailin got angry too, stood up and threw the lantern in the woman's hand out the window.

"Don't waste your energy here. I've already told you I'm not interested in you."

The woman sadly picked up a handkerchief, covered her face, and began to cry. She walked away while crying.

Song Miqiu was secretly delighted.

No sooner had one farce ended than another began; after the woman was driven away, a daring man arrived.

The man's target was naturally Song Miqiu.

The man was polite enough to come up carrying a lantern and introduce himself first.

"I am the son of the current county magistrate. Would you do me the honor of joining me for a meal, Miss?"

While they were talking, the entire second floor was watching them, as if they were watching a spectacle.

Song Miqiu deliberately remained silent, wanting Yu Huailin to experience what it was like to suffer.

Yu Huailin immediately stood up and deliberately blocked the man's view of Song Miqiu.

"You just said you were from a certain family. Tell me your father's name and see if I recognize him."

The moment the words "Your Highness" were uttered, the man's expression changed immediately.

Who could afford to offend His Highness? In order to avoid causing trouble for his father, the man took his lamp wick and slunk away.

Not bad, Song Miqiu thought to herself. She hadn't expected Yu Huailin to be so domineering.

No ordinary person can compare to him.

After the meal, Song Miqiu was overjoyed to receive the lantern flower that Yu Huailin had given her.

Little did they know that all of this was being observed by Liuli, who was hiding in a corner.

Seeing how well-matched the two were, Liuli really couldn't understand why Yu Huailin would choose to be with an old woman instead of her.

Liuli grew angrier the more she thought about it. With the hidden weapon in her hand, she wished she could kill this eyesore, Song Miqiu, right now.

Just as he was feeling helpless, he saw Song Miqiu deliberately put his hand on Yu Huailin's shoulder.

"No, I really can't swallow this."

After saying that, he was about to leap down and kill Song Miqiu.

Unexpectedly, he was controlled by others and could not move.

Liuli wanted to turn around to see who was blocking her way, but before she could turn her head, she was picked up and carried away.

"Who are you? Put me down! Put me down! Where are you taking me?"

No matter how much Liuli struggled, she couldn't break free, which showed that this person's martial arts skills were quite impressive, making Liuli even more wary.

They soon arrived at a secluded spot, where the man put the glass down.

Only then was Liuli able to see the person's appearance.

Liuli was stunned. Weren't these her stepfather's men? Why were they here? Could it be that her stepfather had been following Yu Huailin and the other man and that's how he discovered her?

"Did your stepfather send you here?"

Liuli naturally wanted to get to the bottom of it; otherwise, why would she have been kept in the dark?

"It was the old eunuch who sent me. I didn't expect to run into you, Miss. The old eunuch instructed me not to make any rash moves and be discovered by Yu Huailin, so I stopped you."

After hearing his explanation, Liuli finally felt relieved.

It seems that the only person in this world who truly cares for me and always considers my needs is my stepfather.

“Go back and tell your stepfather that I’m doing fine on my own now. Tell him not to worry about me and that I won’t do anything rash again. Just put his mind at ease.”

After speaking, he left.

Her stepfather had already done so much for her, and Liuli really didn't want him to worry.

At this moment, Liuli was unaware that she had been exposed.

The moment she appeared, Yu Huailin realized that someone was watching him, but he couldn't see who it was.

Having kept a backup plan, Yu Huailin naturally also arranged for his men to search for the person who was following him.

Blindness is a special situation, and danger lurks everywhere. Yu Huailin has to be extremely careful, and no one dares to trust him.

Yu Huailin's only thought was to use his own strength to complete what he had not been able to do, and also to protect Song Miqiu.

They spent the whole day shopping. Although they didn't see any lanterns they liked, they had still managed to fulfill Song Miqiu's wish. After having dinner, the two decided to go home.

"You must be tired after a long day. Go back and get some rest."

Song Miqiu was so tired of hearing these words that he was practically sick of them. He really didn't know who was older, the one he was talking to or the one Yu Huailin was talking to.

"You don't need to tell me that. You're exhausted after walking all day. Just go back and get a good night's sleep."

After walking along the narrow path, the two hailed a carriage and hurried home.
