Chapter 169 - 169 I Must See Her
Rumor Has It That I'm Pregnant with His Highness' Child
169 I Must See Her
Shen Rui snorted.
âPrince Lang, donât believe his lies. He must have deliberately made up the story of Miss Yuâs disappearance to protect his post.
I donât believe a young lady can disappear into thin air in a huge mansion like theirs.â
Yu Kangtai was about to cry.
âIâm really not lying!â
Xiao Juan had solved countless cases. How could he not tell that Yu Kangtai was hiding something?
He stared at Yu Kangtai and asked coldly.
âEven if sheâs gone, Dang Gui is still here, right? Call her out.â
Based on his understanding of the Yu family, these people were estranged from Yu Niaoniao. In the entire Yu Residence, only Dang Gui was on the same side as Yu Niaoniao.
In this situation, only Dang Gui would tell the truth.
Yu Kangtai said, âDang Gui went out to look for her. Sheâs not back yet.â
Shen Rui sneered. âWhat a coincidence. None of them are in the residence?â
Yu Kangtai could not argue.
At this moment, Yu Pingping was hiding at the door.
She looked out carefully and saw that her father was speechless from the Sixth Princeâs question. She was extremely anxious.
She was about to rush out to speak for her father when she suddenly heard the butlerâs voice behind her.
âYoung Master and Missy are back!â
Yu Pingping suddenly turned around. âSister is really back?â
The butler nodded vigorously. âThey just entered the Yu Residence through the back door. Theyâve already gone to the Green Jade Residence.â
Yu Pingping was pleasantly surprised. She was finally back!
She lifted her skirt and rushed towards the Green Jade Residence.
At this moment, the Green Jade Residence was in a mess.
The maidservants were putting on clothes for Yu Niaoniao.
After changing, Dang Gui picked up a comb and quickly combed Missâs hair.
But because Yu Niaoniaoâs hair was still wet, it was very difficult to comb it. The comb was to be stuck from time to time.
Yu Niaoniao was afraid of missing the auspicious hour, so she urged.
âYou donât have to comb it so meticulously. Just make sure itâs about the right size.â
Dang Gui said solemnly, âToday is the most important day of your life. How can you be so perfunctory?â
Yu Niaoniao said, âThereâs not much time left. Hurry up.â
With that, she picked up the brush and prepared to draw her eyebrows.
But because she was so cold that she was trembling, her fingers couldnât stop trembling as she held her eyebrow brush. Her drawn eyebrows were crooked.
At this moment, Yu Pingping ran in.
When she saw the eyebrows on Yu Niaoniaoâs face, she was immediately shocked.
âSis, why do you have caterpillars on your face?â
Yu Niaoniao put down the brush and said in a mix of embarrassment and anger, âShut up!â
Yu Pingping walked over and wiped her eyebrows with a wet handkerchief. She realized that her face was pale and her forehead was hot. She couldnât help but ask.
âAre you sick? Do you want a doctor to take a look at you?â
Yu Niaoniao sneezed, then rubbed her nose with her handkerchief. âIâm fine,â she said in a muffled voice. âI just caught a cold.â
With that, she picked up the brush again and prepared to draw her eyebrows again.
Yu Pingping saw that her fingers were trembling. She couldnât stand it anymore and snatched the brush from her hand.
âSit still. Iâll help you with your makeup.â
Yu Niaoniao looked at her skeptically. âCan you do it?â
Yu Pingping raised her chin confidently. âJust watch!â
She did not have talent in cooking, but she was indeed very good at makeup.
Soon, she helped Yu Niaoniaoâs face was made up beautifully.
Yu Niaoniao looked left and right in the mirror.
Her originally pale face was already covered by makeup, but Yu Pingping controlled it very well. It did not seem like she had heavy makeup at all. Her cheeks were fair and rosy, her eyebrows were very exquisite, and her red lips were bright and full.
She was really bright-eyed and beautiful.
Yu Pingping was very satisfied with her work and asked proudly.
âHow is it? Is it beautiful?â
Yu Niaoniao replied very honestly.
âIâm so beautiful!â
Yu Pingping was speechless.
âI asked you to praise my skills, not yourself!â
Yu Sheng walked in with the ginger soup.
âSister, drink this quickly to disperse the cold.â
Yu Niaoniao reached out to take the bowl and drank the ginger soup in one go.
Yu Pingping immediately picked up the lip gloss and touched up her makeup.
Dang Gui put the golden hairpin on Yu Niaoniaoâs head. After she put on earrings, necklaces, and bracelets for Yu Niaoniao, she performed a series of other gestures. Finally, she stuffed a red and gold fan into her hand.
In that case, it was done.
Yu Niaoniao was afraid that she would miss the timing and urged.
âGo, go!â
Logically speaking, there were still many segments after the brideâs makeup.
However, time was tight now. Yu Niaoniao was not in the mood to care about red tape. Everything was simple at special moments!
Yu Pingping and Dang Gui helped her out.
When she reached the door, Yu Sheng squatted down in front of her.
âSister, Iâll carry you out.â
This was also a custom. When a bride got married, she had to be carried out by her family brothers. Until she boarded the bridal sedan, her feet could not touch the ground.
Yu Niaoniao did not stand on ceremony and directly lay on Yu Shengâs back. However, she waved her hand and ordered.
âMove out!â
Yu Sheng stood up with Yu Niaoniao on his back and walked forward.
Dang Gui and Yu Pingping followed.
They walked out of the Green Jade Residence and headed straight for the door.
Yu Niaoniao suddenly asked.
âAm I heavy?â
Yu Sheng said, âYouâre not heavy.â
Yu Niaoniao said, âThen why are you walking so slowly?â
Yu Sheng was silent for a moment before finally choosing to answer truthfully.
âWell, youâre certainly a bit heavy.â
He had only carried her for a short distance when his arms and back ached. Every step was extremely heavy.
Yu Niaoniao knocked on his shoulder with her fan and said angrily.
âIâm so thin. How heavy can I be? Youâre clearly too useless. Look at your small body. You must not have exercised much, right? You should learn from Duke Lang and train your body more. If you have nothing to do, practice martial arts.â
Yu Sheng panted and argued, âIâm different from my brother-in-law. Heâs a general, and Iâm a scholar.â
Yu Niaoniao said, âAlthough Duke Lang is a general, heâs also a scholar. Why canât you practice martial arts? I think youâre too useless.â
Yu Shengâs handsome face turned red.
Initially, he was still sad that his sister was about to get married. Now, he was not sad at all.
He only wished he could marry his sister off quickly.
At the thought of this, Yu Sheng gritted his teeth and quickened his pace.
In front of the Yu Residenceâs door, Yu Kangtai was desperate.
Shen Rui planned to return to the palace and report this matter to his father. He asked Xiao Juan to leave with him but the latter refused.
Shen Rui looked at him resentfully.
âWhy havenât you given up yet? That Yu Niaoniao did not want to marry you at all. She had already run away! Even if you wait here until the end of time, she wonât appear! Why do you have to embarrass yourself?â
Xiao Juan said in a low voice, âI donât believe she will run away from the marriage. There must be a misunderstanding. I must see her.â
Seeing that he was stubborn, Shen Ruiâs anger rose immediately. He frowned and scolded.
âYouâre really a blockhead! Sheâs deliberately avoiding you. How can you possibly see her? Iâll say this today. If you can see Yu Niaoniao today, Iâll eat the door of the Yu Residence!â
Just as he finished speaking, he suddenly heard the butler shout.
âThe bride is out!â
