Transmigrated As My Former Uncle's Sweetheart



"I don't think so." Beitang You sighed. He reached out to hold her shoulders as he said seriously, "Yaoyao, I have never liked another girl, and I've never said anything like this to any other girl but you. If you still feel that I'm too flippant or rash, I'm willing to take it slow if time permits. However, would you be willing to give me the chance to take things slower?"

Yaoyao opened her mouth to say something when she heard this, but no words came out.

Beitang You smiled bitterly. "If not for the fact that your Royal Brother will come to the Yan Kingdom to pick you up, you probably would have returned to Great Shang in another couple of days. Do you think I would still have a chance after you return to Great Shang?"

Yaoyao was not able to say anything to that.

It was because the truth was exactly as he had said.

She finally spoke after staying silent for a long time, "There are many good women in this world. You don't need to like only me. You can choose a more suitable and matching woman to be your wife."

"How can I give up liking someone so easily? If I was able to do that, it isn't really liking a person, is it?" Beitang You rubbed her head. She was still a child, after all, to have such a child-like idea. "I wouldn't be this troubled if destiny hadn't arranged for us to meet."

Yaoyao pouted. "There's no need to be troubled over this. You're the Emperor. You can have any woman you want."

Beitang You released her shoulders. He placed one hand behind his back and turned to look far off.

"Your father is also a noble ruler of a country, but he only has your mother by his side his entire life. I think that is a really good thing. All I need is the heart of one person and we shall never separate till the day we die!" He said softly.

Yaoyao looked at him in slight surprise when she heard that.

She had never expected he would envy the love between her parents.

Yaoyao was greatly taken aback.

The love between her parents was not something that could be replicated. Not everyone could be as loyal in love like her father was, who loved and doted only her mother his entire life.

She thought that at the very least, Beitang You could not be someone like that.

He was the Emperor, after all, and it was normal for him to have a harem. However, she had grown up being influenced by her parent's love, and deep in her heart, she wanted to experience a love like theirs.

She had once imagined she would one day have someone who loved her the way her father loved her mother, however, she also felt that not everyone could be as lucky as her mother was.

Her father was past thirty back then and had not married anyone, much less have children. It was as if he was waiting for her mother to appear. Not long after marrying her mother, he disbanded the imperial harem.

Even though there was a fifteen-year gap between them, their love was perfect. There was nothing fallible about their love.

She envied and wanted such love…

Beitang You turned his head and saw her being quiet. However, her beautiful, shining eyes were bright as they were filled with hope for the future.

What was she looking forward to in the future?

His eyes narrowed as he was reminded of what he had just said. Something moved in his heart as he suddenly understood something.

This young girl was probably also envious of the love her parents shared.

He approached her once more and lifted her face with his slender finger. "Yaoyao, do you think that you won't have a sense of security if you married me? Are you afraid that I would one day have a change of heart and marry many women, thus breaking your heart?"

Yaoyao had wanted to slap his hand away, but when she heard his words, a confused look appeared in her eyes.

Beitang You sighed and continued speaking as he smiled, "If I hadn't met you, I would probably never like another in my entire life. Do you believe in fate?"

Yaoyao nodded. "Just like my parents."

"Yes. Your parent's love was fated, but I also think that there is fate between us. Otherwise, why did I only like you and not Ji'er when both of you looked exactly the same when we were younger? I felt the exact same way after you've both grown up. It was too late for me the moment I laid eyes on you the first time outside the doors of Jade Dew Hall. You can insist that this is shallow of me, but you're the one I like. What can I do about it? I can't take it back even if I wanted to."
