Chapter 949 -948: In this lifetime, I will always be waiting for him_1
Upon closer look, her features had grown more distinct in just half a year.
A fifteen-year-old girl in the prime of her youth, with a fair and delicate oval face, almond-shaped eyes full of charm, rosy blush on her cheeks, and a voluptuous yet graceful figure, she resembled a peony flower waiting to bloom.
What a stunning beauty she was.
Lin Qingluo secretly admired her in her heart and couldn’t help but sigh for her melancholic cousin.
Just judging by appearances, her cousin really couldn’t compare to Ah Ruhan.
No wonder Fifth Brother had accepted the imperial decree for their marriage without prior knowledge.
Faced with such a beautiful and devoted fiancée who had travelled thousands of miles to pursue him, any man would be captivated!
“It’s cold in the courtyard; let’s go inside to talk.”
Lin Qingluo gathered her thoughts and softly instructed her two maids: “Shu Min, Zizhu, go brew a pot of fresh tea and bring some fruits and snacks.”
“Yes.”
The two maids took their orders and left, while the other maids and old women in the courtyard retreated, leaving a clear path.
Lin Qingluo wore a warm smile as she led Ah Ruhan into her own boudoir.
“Sister Qingluo’s boudoir is so beautiful, both elegant and unique.”
Ah Ruhan closed her umbrella, handed it to a maid, took a spin around the boudoir, and showed a hint of envy in her expression.
“Which courtyard does Sister Ruhan live in?”
Lin Qingluo casually tossed her cloak onto the bed and gestured for her to sit on the small couch.
“Before the engagement is settled, I’m temporarily staying in Madam’s courtyard.”
Ah Ruhan’s eyes sparkled, her cheeks slightly flushed.
Lin Qingluo’s heart skipped a beat and she tentatively asked, “Has Grandmother mentioned when the engagement will be settled?”
“No specific date has been set yet.”
Ah Ruhan shyly lowered her eyelids: “She merely said we’ll discuss it after the New Year, once First Brother Lin is married.”
“Fifth Brother will turn sixteen after the New Year and will have to go to the military for training.”
Lin Qingluo’s eyes darkened, and she glanced at her subconsciously: “Grandmother must be thinking of settling the marriage before Fifth Brother leaves.”
“Once we’re engaged, I’ll be his lady. I’ll wait for him all my life.”
Ah Ruhan’s thick and long eyelashes trembled, and her eyes flashed with determination: “No matter when he returns, I’ll be waiting.” 𝖓𝔬𝔳𝔭𝖚𝖇.𝔠𝔬𝖒
“Sister Ruhan.”
Lin Qingluo’s eyes flashed with emotion, and she gently patted the back of her hand: “Fifth Brother will understand your feelings.”
“Sister Qingluo, can you tell me…”
Ah Ruhan’s cheeks flushed red, and she hesitated to speak.
“What’s up?”
Lin Qingluo’s eyes sparkled, staring curiously at her.
“Can you tell me about Brother Long’s hobbies.”
Ah Ruhan stammered, almost biting her tongue: “For example, what kind of girl he likes, his taste in food, the color of his clothes, and the patterns on his purse…”
“Ahem.”
Lin Qingluo nearly choked on her saliva when she heard the words ‘patterns on his purse.’
“Sister Qingluo.”
Ah Ruhan’s cheeks flushed as she was interrupted by her cough.
“Sister Ruhan.”
Lin Qingluo was both amused and exasperated: “I won’t lie to you, Fifth Brother is a typical straight man who isn’t good at communicating with girls.”
“Other than his interest in martial arts, there are no specific hobbies. As for the color of his clothes and the patterns on his purse, I don’t think he even notices or cares.”
“What about his taste in food?”
Ah Ruhan awkwardly tugged at the corner of her mouth, still unwilling to give up: “Does he prefer spicy or sweet? Are there any dishes he especially likes…?”
“No.”
Lin Qingluo interrupted her, raising her eyebrows with a playful smile: “Although speaking ill of one’s brother isn’t appropriate, I still think it would be better to tell you the truth.”
