Di Xueyan's lips can't help but twitch. She doesn't know how to react, specially while seeing the reaction of the prince in front of her. She pities the future of this kingdom in the hands of such crown prince.
" You're the slut", she calmly looks at Liu Youwei with ridicule in her eyes. Since her reading is already disrupted, wouldn't it be wonderful if she'll at least have a little entertainment? She wants to see how long this white lotus bitch can lasts.
Liu Youwei can't believe it. Among all the things she had righteously said, the hateful bitch in front of her only remembers the slut part! And she even calls her slut! All her life she had never been called like that!
Of course, who would have the guts to say it in her face though?
Di Xueyan is very amused at how her righteous looking face crack.
' I knew it! This bitches just can't take insults. How weak!', she laughs inside her head while looking at the fuming lady in front of her.
Even Xiao Yulin is shocked. He knows that no one in their sane minds would insult a powerful individual like this.
' Is she more powerful or just plain stupid? ', other than the royal family, no one is more powerful than the prime minister, so he believes the latter.
He can't help but to look at Liu Youwei. When Liu Youwei felt that Xiao Yulin looks at her, her originally distorted face immediately became sad.
" Lin'er do you also think that I, Wei'er is a slut?", she acts pitifully while wiping the tears that are rolling down her pretty face. Xiao Yulin's heart softens, his instinct to protect is ignited.
Di Xueyan is a little bit surprised that there is a potential actress in this world who deserves an Oscar Award!
' Deym! I can't even cry that fast even though I've been forced to act in many role plays since grade 7! This is unfair!', she thought while lamenting how she doesn't still know how to act even though their school has a lot of role playing activities. The fact that she was a HUMSS student who acts almost everyday for the performance tasks, it really is a shame.
She is not very shocked though. She knew very well that the inner courtyard fightings between concubines and wives honed their children's surviving skills.
" Of course, not!", Xiao Yulin immediately reply, trying to ease the girl's feelings.
" Then why are you with a man who is not even betrothed to you though?", Di Xueyan continued taunting.
" Because - -", she shyly looks at the crown prince " I like him! ", she faked a flustered look and looks at the floor.
" Really?"
" Of course!"
" His power also? "
" Of course! Also his pow--", Liu Youwei's eyes widens as she looks at the prince. The surrounding instantly became quiet.
Xiao Yulin's face went blank. He's well aware that they are just using each other, - - but why say it out loud? Why in public?
The people around errupted in murmur. They are also aware about that fact but it is just hilarious if it came from the mouth of the people involved the most.
Di Xueyan's lips can't help but to lift up. She really wants to laugh out loud but she can feel the stone tablet inside her storage ring lights up, indicating a call.
She walks past the two like minded couple in front of her, one with a very dark face while the other is trying to explain her mistake. She thinks that her taunting is not enough so she suddenly looks back.
" And about the punishment part, who are you to decide my fate? I was not even afraid when I made the third prince impotent, why do you think would I care about someone surnamed Lu?", she smiles sweetly as she saw the crown prince's reaction.
" Oh yeah, mr. crown prince, how's your brother's little brother? ", she added while waving her hands and walked out.
The people are in awe at the girl's brave act, while the crown prince is staring at her back with a wide eyes.
" You!", Xiao Yulin pointed at her in rage while shouting his command to his shadow guard to capture the departing young lady. He is maliciously thinking about the punishment he will give to her for tarnishing their reputation while running after her.
They are disappointed though as she disappeared like thin air. The crown prince swore to heavens that if ever he will saw that girl, he will make sure that she will be his concubine and will ravage her day and night until her body can't take it anymore and she will beg for him to finish her life!
' Her only mistake is, showing her face', he pervertedly smile.
The capital is in chaos as the crown prince is reportedly looking for a criminal. The royal army turned the city upside down while posting a notice that if someone will turn over the girl in the poster they are pasting, they will be bountifully rewarded and they will recieve a blank decree.
Greedy people in the capital are already looking for the poor girl. They all thought that maybe, their lives will change forever, just because of a hateful little girl!
