Chapter 1721: The Warmth He Gave

Long Ming told her that his meeting with the couple had gone smoothly and that they had liked her immediately when he had shown them her photo.

The driver realized that he had said too much and said in fear, “Miss Ying, don’t go back and ask the King. He doesn’t want anyone to know about it.”

“The King stood there for the entire night before the Duke and his wife agreed to meet him. However, I heard that the Duke and his wife liked you the moment they saw the photo and agreed to the King’s request.”

Xiao Ying looked at the nervous driver and replied, “Don’t worry, I won’t make things difficult for you.”

Back in the palace, the butler told Xiao Ying that after Long Ming coaxed Wan Bao to sleep, he had gone to the study.

Xiao Ying thought about her misunderstanding of him the past two days and felt a little bad.

Taking the supper from the butler, Xiao Ying walked to the door of the study.

She raised her hand and knocked on the door.

Hearing the man’s deep and cold voice, Xiao Ying pushed the door open and entered.

Long Ming was looking down at his documents. He was wearing a black shirt from the day and his side profile was sharp and serious. When he was working, he was serious and cold, exuding a cold aura that kept people away.

He thought that the butler had brought supper over. His slender fingers tapped the table, signaling for the butler to put the food on the table.

Xiao Ying walked over and placed the snacks and coffee on the table.

Long Ming did not look up.

After a few seconds, perhaps sensing that the person who had brought the food had not left, Long Ming said coldly, “Is she back?”

“She’s back.”

An elegant female voice sounded.

Long Ming looked up and his dark eyes narrowed when he saw the woman standing in front of the desk. “You just returned?”

Xiao Ying nodded.

Long Ming’s cold expression softened when he saw Xiao Ying. He got up and walked toward her.

Xiao Ying took a few steps back, avoiding his approach.

Seeing that she was still rejecting him like last night, Long Ming frowned. “Are you still angry at me?”

Xiao Ying was not angry at him, but…

Xiao Ying walked around the desk and sat on the leather chair he had sat on. Only she dared to sit in his seat.

Long Ming stood by the desk and watched her spin around on the leather chair. A trace of a smile flashed past his eagle-like eyes. “You’re not angry anymore. Why didn’t you let me hug you?”

Xiao Ying opened her mouth, wanting to say something when she realized that the top drawer of the desk was open. There were documents and several scattered photos inside.

It was an unintentional glance, but it made Xiao Ying’s expression change.

Sensing Xiao Ying’s expression, Long Ming wanted to go forward to stop her from looking at the things in the drawer, but it was too late.

Xiao Ying opened the drawer.

She picked up the photos inside and scanned them one by one.

The white light from the top of her head landed on her tensed face. Her black eyes started to narrow and the skin on her face turned pale.

Why were these photos here?

These were the intimate photos of her with various targets!

These were all filmed by Ba Er’s men. These were the files of every one of their mission executives, and one of the methods Ba Er used to threaten them.

With Ba Er and Ba Li’s death, these things should have been destroyed.

But why were they in Long Ming’s drawer?

Xiao Ying’s heart thumped crazily. It was one thing for Long Ming to know about her past, but another thing for him to see how she had charmed those men with his own eyes?

At this moment, Xiao Ying felt like she was being stripped naked in the streets.

Long Ming strode forward and immediately took the photo from Xiao Ying’s hand. However, the next second, Xiao Ying picked up the document in the drawer.

The document was filled with the things that Xiao Ying had done that only Ba Er and the rest knew.

Xiao Ying’s heart was in her throat, her heart beating very quickly.

Where had Long Ming gotten this information?

It was no wonder that he had gone overseas to look for the Duke and his wife and had not called her at all after returning from the island.

No matter who saw this information, their feelings would be affected even if they loved that person!

Although Long Ming was a high and mighty king, he was only an ordinary man in terms of relationships. It would be strange if he could stand seeing the woman he loved being with countless men.

Xiao Ying did not blame Long Ming for being cold to her. He needed to adjust his emotions. She could only blame herself.

Why did she agree to be his Princess Consort even though she knew how complicated, unbearable, and dark she used to be?

She was too greedy!

“Stop looking. If it wasn’t to find out who leaked this information, I would have burned it long ago.” Long Ming looked at Xiao Ying’s remorseful and painful expression and went forward to pull her into his arms.

However, Xiao Ying pushed him away the next second.

To be honest, she did not know how to face him.

Xiao Ying wanted to stand up from the leather chair, but very quickly, her thin shoulders were held down by Long Ming’s large hand.

Long Ming had also experienced a life worse than death, but compared to her, he was considered lucky. She had grown up in such an environment, where the strong survived and the weak were eliminated. She had suffered so much since she was young to survive.

Long Ming bent down slightly, his deep eyes focused on Xiao Ying’s face. “It’s all in the past. The person who took out the information wanted to ruin our relationship. Don’t fall into someone else’s trap.”

Long Ming tightened his hold on Xiao Ying’s shoulders, wanting to subdue her. “Besides, you’re Long Ying now and will soon become the daughter of the Duke. You have nothing to do with that Number 21 from before.”

“If you really can’t forget the past, you can hypnotize yourself and forget all the painful experiences in the past. Be a good daughter of the Duke.”

Xiao Ying looked at Long Ming’s deep eyes and handsome face. At the thought of him standing outside the door of the Duke and his wife’s house for her, her expression slowly changed.

Long Ming cupped Xiao Ying’s face, his calloused fingers caressing the corner of her eyes. “If you want to cry, just cry, okay?”

He made her want to cry…

When she was young, the training was tough and she was always beaten up easily. Every time she cried, she would be punished more severely. Those fierce people told her that tears had to be used only in useful situations.

Xiao Ying’s eyes turned red.

She buried her face into Long Ming’s shoulder, not wanting to control her emotions anymore. She started to sob like an injured kitten.

“I’ve already left that place for many years. Why are they still unwilling to let me go?”

Long Ming grabbed Xiao Ying’s waist tightly. “These are all very confidential documents. Ba Er and Ba Li are no longer around. Who could have gotten these documents?”
