The General's Little Peasant Wife

Chapter 181: Status Higher Than You

Translator: Vesper

Qiao Tian Chang broke away from Ning Meng Yao’s grip and hugged her tightly in his arms. He lowered his head and kissed her forehead: “I’ll always treat you very well.”

“I believe you.”

Ning Meng Yao’s trusted Qiao Tian Chang wholeheartedly, which made Ling Luo feel a little embarrassed. He really couldn’t do what Ning Meng Yao said earlier so what qualifications does he have to ask her to be with him?

“Ling Luo, you have your own family, you shouldn’t be here. Go back, and don’t come here again.” Ning Meng Yao held on Qiao Tian Chang, as she said to Ling Luo seriously.

“You really don’t wish to see me?”

Ning Meng Yao nodded: “I don’t want to invite another murder case. Besides, there’s nothing to say between us. Tian Chang doesn’t like you. I don’t want to make him unhappy because of you.”

Ling Luo laughed at himself. So it was for this man. She actually said such nonsense because of this man.

“Haha, you want to live an ordinary life with him here? Do you think I’ll let that happen?” If he couldn’t have her, no one could. It used to be like this and it was still the same now. He had the rights and status that ordinary people didn’t have so it would be easy for him to suppress them.

“Hey, let me see who’s at the door. Oh why, isn’t that Ling Luo, a father-to-be? What are you doing at my brother and sister-in-law’s place?” When Ning Meng Yao wanted to refute, Xiao Qi Tian’s voice suddenly sounded beside them.

Subsequently, they saw Xiao Qi Tian walking out with a devilish smile.

Looking at Ling Luo’s stiffened expression, Qiao Tian Chang sneered.

“Your Grace.” It was true that Ling Luo had high power, but his arrogance was nothing before Xiao Qi Tian. Xiao Qi Tian was the Emperor’s dearest brother.

Xiao Qi Tian briefly looked at Ling Luo: “Ling Luo, I don’t care what relationship you had with my sister-in-law previously, but now she’s my brother’s fiancee, and they’re going to get married. My sister-in-law has even told you about it. If I hear that you’re scheming against them, then don’t blame me for turning my back on you.”

“Yes, Your Grace.” Although Ling Luo was unwilling, he still had to agree.

He couldn’t scheme didn’t mean other people couldn’t.

Qiao Tian Chang looked at Ling Luo’s unwilling appearance, and felt somewhat intolerant: “You’re just the Heir, not a Marquis.”

“Marquis or not, my status is still higher than yours.” Ling Luo was just under Xiao Qi Tian’s inferiority, why should he be looked down by Qiao Tian Chang too.

Xiao Qi Tian looked at Ling Luo and smiled. “To speak the truth, Tian Chang’s position is much higher than yours. You better watch yourself. Just in case, you trouble your family. That wouldn’t be good I suppose.”

No one could replace Qiao Tian Chang’s position, even the most senior minister couldn’t replace him, let alone a petty Heir.

“Heir, your wife is going into labor soon.” As Ling Luo was feeling embarrassed, a figure suddenly appeared beside him and whispered anxiously in his ear.

Ling Luo frowned, obviously annoyed. What does that woman want now?

She had been doing this often for a period of time already. Whenever he stayed a little longer at his concubines’ place, she would use various excuses to call him back, and usually, it was about the child in her.

“Heir...”

“Let’s go.” Ling Luo took a deep breath and turned to his horse and left quickly. He didn’t even turn back to look at Ning Meng Yao this time.

The other person that was left behind, bowed at Xiao Qi Tian, then left.

“Okay, let’s go in.” Qiao Tian Chang glanced at the figure of their backs fading away. Truthfully, having power over someone was sometimes quite good, at least it could be used to pressure others when necessary.

“Don’t worry, nothing will happen.” Xiao Qi Tian smiled.

Initially, they were still somewhat dissatisfied when they heard Ning Meng Yao talking to Ling Luo, but they were relieved after hearing Ning Meng Yao speak.

The relationship between the couple was indeed very close, even if there was something between Ning Meng Yao and Ling Luo, what did it matter? That was all in the past, she was with Qiao Tian Chang now.

Besides, they also believed that Qiao Tian Chang must have known about Ling Luo’s existence long ago, so they didn’t need to worry about him.
