Chapter 480: Holding Hands And Facing Adversities Together
"You are not going to tell me I overreacted?" Xing asked washing Chenglei’s hair, sitting by the sides of the tub. She has always behaved properly in front of their children and this is the first time she acted like she used to, in front of them.
She didn’t want her children to know her as a divine ruler. And that’s why, she never let her children know about her past and just showed herself as a wife and mother. Now her behaviour would have stirred some doubts in their children’s minds.
All because of that idiot!
" No, I would never. I shouldn’t have surprised you like this. And I can understand your concern, " he answered calmly. He liked it when she washed his hair. Her hands always were gentle and beautiful.
His wife can do anything she wants.
"You shouldn’t have, but... I should have been a bit calmer," Xing leaned on him and accepted her fault. She asked her children to be proper and now she lost all composure in front of them.
"Sixteen is too young, " she added. Her daughters are too little. How would they be able to handle married life? And that too Little Yu was always carefree and easy-going who does not know how to plot or conspire.
Will she able to handle the life in the inner palace? And that too in a place far away and where their reach is limited?
" Wedding won’t be until they are eighteen, " Chenglei held her hand and made her sit in his front, as he hugged her back.
" You know there are a lot of families trying to make us relatives... Why do you want to send our daughter that far away?" Xing asked leaning in his chest.
" The Fire Emperor has been asking me forever. And, his son... He is suitable for our daughter, isn’t he? And Little Yu likes him too. But in the end, it is your decision"
Chenglei knew how to talk to his wife to let her decide according to his wishes. She knows what is right. And their children’s wedding is not just that. It involves a lot of other considerations too.
