Chapter Seventy-Four: Brain-Dead People Every Year, This Yea
l of dog food about"Ying'er! You have no manners!" Su Chengming almost fell off his dragon throne from her bold move.When did his daughter become so... unrestrained!“Father, I want to marry him. For t..."A man" Jun Liye's blood-red eyes narrowed dangerously.
Su Qingying gave him a withering look. "What nonsense. Aren't you either male or female"
"Don't let her go!" Jun Liye roared, the blue veins on his hands bulging uncontrollably. His aura instantly turned extremely sharp, sweeping towards Su Qingying.
This goddamn woman actually dared to write the names of other men, he thought about it and felt like killing her.
Xi'er glanced at Jun Liye strangely. Was she hallucinating How could she feel so much vinegar in the air Pfft pfft pfft, how could Beiling's Regent be interested in them, princesses It must be her overthinking!
"What are you doing Jun Liye, are you sick If you're sick, go see a doctor. Don't block my way, get out of the way!" She brushed past Jun Liye and walked towards the shore. After lighting the candles there, she gently placed her flower lantern in the water and watched it drift away.
Tian Yu, I hope you have a happy and joyful life in the 21st century. I'm doing well now, so you don't have to worry about me.
Xiao Tianyu was Su Qingying's only close friend in modern times, and also her partner. Sadly, she never got to say goodbye to him before she died.
"Hey, what's going on over there Why are there so many people" After finishing the lantern release, Su Qingying slowly stood up and saw the crowds surging in the wine shop to the west. She couldn't help but be curious.
“My dear girl, you’re unaware of this,” the old woman selling flower lanterns said with a smile. “There’s a white-haired old man over there who posed three riddles. Anyone who answers them correctly can take the coral bead. It's rumored that just drinking powdered coral beads can double one's inner strength. Many people have gone to try answering the riddles, you know.”
“A coral bead that can enhance one's inner power What a good thing, let’s go take a look.” Su Qingying’s phoenix eyes flashed with a gleam, she had taken the Ancient Moon Harp but because she lacked inner power, she couldn't use it. Now, this was just what she needed to solve her pressing problem.
Xi'er hesitated and glanced at Su Qingying, "Princess, perhaps it's best not to We've been out of the palace for quite a while now, and it's getting late. If His Highness the Crown Prince finds out, we're in trouble."
Su Qingying clearly didn't take her worries to heart. She took the lead and walked toward the restaurant, saying, "Don't worry, with me here, your imperial brother won't punish you."
"I know what you're thinking, and I advise you to abandon it. While the Coral Bead can enhance inner strength, it comes with severe side effects. However, if consumed together with the Purple Jade Bead, the Coral Bead's side effects can be neutralized, and the enhancement to inner strength will be immeasurable." He walked beside her, Jun Liye softly spoke, seeing through her thoughts.
Su Qingying raised her head and looked at him, "How do you know Do you have the purple jade bead"
"You're right, I do have the Purple Jade Pearl in my possession." Jun Li Ye admitted openly, a ghost of a smile flitting across his chiseled, handsome face.
"Really Then what about me" A playful glint sparkled in Su Qingying's eyes as she smiled sweetly at him, her pretty face tinged with a blush of pink, captivatingly beautiful.
Jun Li raised an eyebrow, regarding her calmly, as if to say what benefit she could possibly offer him.
As if reading his thoughts, Su Qingying flashed him another fawning smile and sprang to his face. Her agile phoenix eyes were filled with ingratiating colors. "Look, we're now in a cooperative relationship, and it can be said that we're friends. If you give me the Ziyu Pearl, after I gain internal energy, you won't have to work so hard to protect my personal safety. Moreover, your internal energy is already so powerful, this Ziyu Pearl definitely wouldn't have much effect on you. Keeping it would be a waste."
Looking at her fawning face, Jun Li's deep blood-colored eyes flashed a hint of amusement. A smirk played on his lips as he said, "Even if it's useless to this king, the Purple Jade Orb is a priceless treasure. Why would this king give it to you"
"You! Hmph, hogging the latrine and not using it!" Su Qingying choked back a retort, so angry she trembled, wishing she could pin him down and rub him into the ground!
Xi'er, feeling extremely embarrassed, thought to herself, "The princess is so crude!"
“..... speechless Jun Liye.
"
As they spoke, they walked into the restaurant. From afar, they saw Lan Xin Yao and Xuan Yuan Che sitting in the middle, surrounded by stars.
"Princess, isn't that Prince Rui with Miss Lan"
"Well, I can see your princess clearly. What a coincidence to meet here!" Su Qingying smirked coldly and strolled over slowly. Jun Liye glanced at her and followed behind, every move exuding unparalleled grace. The two seemed like a perfect match.
"Su Qingying How did you get here Hmph, truly a persistent ghost. Do you think that by being so clingy, I'll like you" Su Qingying swaggered in, not showing any signs of restraint. Coupled with Jun Liye's natural imposing aura, Xuanyuan Che found it hard to ignore them.
"So it's the foolish princess of Dongyue Country."
"He's probably here to pester Lord Rui."
"Tsk, what a shame."
As soon as Xuan Yuan Che finished speaking, the crowd surrounding them began to buzz with disapproval and ridicule, their faces contorted with disdain and mockery.
Su Qingying remembered them, each of them claiming to be a talented young man or woman from Ximing, yet every time they saw her, they would sneer and mock her. They were all good friends of Xuanyuan Che.
With a displeased frown, Jun Liye raised his blood-red eyes, his gaze sweeping across their faces one by one. His eyes were like electricity, sharp and full of spirit, radiating an aura of power that intimidated everyone present, making them all too afraid to meet his gaze.
Su Qingying curled her lips, her ink-colored autumn pupils narrowed slightly, a disdainful smile played at the corner of her mouth, "Damn it, there are brainless people every year, this year especially many. Xuan Yuan Che, you're being too self-indulgent, haven't you seen that I have a handsome guy behind me who is so handsome he has no friends Do you think you're more handsome than the King of Bei Ling I'd rather like Jun Li Ye than look at you. Don't forget, I broke off your engagement."
Jun Li Ye, who had been standing silently beside her, listened to her words. His indifferent and profound eyes moved slightly. The icy aura surrounding him, which kept people at bay, now had a warmth like spring breeze melting snow. A hint of a smile curved his lips, carrying a unique kind of allure.
"Su Qingying! You!" Xuan Yuan Che took a few steps forward, glared fiercely at Su Qingying, his eyes flashing with cold light.
Although he knew she was telling the truth, seeing her so calm and composed made his heart ache. He felt a pang of discomfort.
At this moment, Lan Xin Yao walked over gracefully like a willow in the wind, slightly bowing her head. "Xin Yao greets His Royal Highness the Prince Regent of Beiling and Princess Wuyue of Dongyue."
Jun Li Ye glanced at her, then averted her gaze, saying nothing. She acted with an aloof and arrogant air of superiority, making the other person feel suffocated.
Su Qingying waved her hand in disgust, as if Lan Xin Yao was a fly, making her feel nauseous. "Lan Xin Yao, don't try this with me, you hypocrite! This princess will one day peel back your fox skin and show everyone what kind of rat crawled out of the gutter you are!"
At this, Blue Xin Yao's face instantly paled. She bit her cherry lips slightly, her eyebrows drooped, and her watery eyes swept over a bloody aura of ferocity, but it was hidden within. Her expression was one of utmost grievance.essed close to Su Ziyi, and covered his mouth with his hand, signaling him to be quiet.Su Ziyi had never been treated so rudely before. Seeing this, his expression grew colder, and he raised his hand...
