On the third day after the reception banquet, a few people were sitting in the imperial study room of the Ye Kingdom’s imperial palace listening to the news from the secret agents of the Xue Kingdom.
“So, now the person in charge of the Guanlong nobles is not Yin Xiang’s father, but Yin Xiang himself?” Feng Tingye knocked on the table without changing his face, his eyes were dim and one could not read his mind.
“That’s right. Although the mascot for being in power in Guanlong is Yin Xiang’s father, Yin Xiang is basically the one making decisions about important matters in private.” Shao Zitong flipped his hands and returned the news from the Xue Country spy.
“Secretly the one in charge? He doesn’t seem to be a simple character. Have you found out the real purpose of his trip? Is it true that it is for the girl Li Yuan?”
“This is not clear for the time being. Right now, it does seem like it’s for that girl.”
Feng Tingye changed his posture, resting his cheek on one hand. He looked at Yan Ran not far away, “For a simple little girl, he came from such a far distance to follow through with his promise. As long as it is a girl, they should be touched by it and fall for it. From this point of view, it may be a matter of time before the girl Li Yuan returns.”
Before Feng Tingye finished his words, Yan Ran couldn’t bear it anymore: “Li Yuan is not the kind of person who can be deceived by such hypocritical illusions. He is just a hypocrite with a cheating appearance. You are all being deceived by him. …”
“A hypocritical illusion, a cheating appearance?” Shao Zitong looked at the anger on Yan Ran’s face and chuckled lightly, “I don’t see any hypocrisy, have you seen it?”
The other two people in the room shook their heads tacitly, making Yan Ran tickled with bitterness. He just wanted to rush over and give him two chomps.
“Yan Ran, I don’t think you should always target other people. You don’t like Li Yuan, but why is it impossible for others to like that girl? Why do you have to hinder other people’s love?”
Shao Zitong’s voice did not finish coming out when Yan Ran blurted out: “Who said I didn’t like her?”
The eyes of the three people instantly focused on him. Yan Ran realized what he had said and was at a loss: “I have something to do. I won’t speak anymore and will leave first.”
“You’re running like this again? What a stubborn stone.” The three people in the room looked at someone’s back and sighed unanimously.
Yan Ran didn’t run far from the Imperial Study Room, then suddenly stopped. His face changed several times, he finally seemed to have made up his mind. He walked in the direction of Xiefang palace to look for Li Yuan to talk. It’s a pity…
“Niang Niang, Young Master Yin is here again to find Li Yuan Jiejie.” The little palace lady who reported the news rushed into Xiefang Hall.
Xia Yuqing’s actions paused, but she was not too surprised. In the past few days, Yin Xiang reported to her almost every day.
As early as after returning from the banquet that day, Xia Yuqing went to interrogate Li Yuan. She learned that the two grew up together. When Yin Xiang was a child, his family was in trouble, and his father was oppressed in officialdom. Even the people who were in their family were given no importance. It was at that time by chance, he had met Li Yuan who was also not valued. Since then, they have taken care of each other. Li Yuan’s mother once had the idea of marrying Li Yuan to him, but Yin Xiang’s family moved because of their clan migration. Since he left without saying goodbye, the matter just disappeared and she didn’t keep Yin Xiang in mind. Now he came back to look for her.
This kind of affectionate relationship that has not deteriorated for more than ten years immediately moved many innocent girls in the Xiefang Hall. In addition, Yin Xiang was born with a handsome appearance and can be said to be gentle and warm towards Li Yuan, many girls who were originally prepared to unanimously reject the outsider chose to defect.
“Master Yin came to see Xiao Yuan again? Xiao Yuan, come out quickly.”
Yin Xiang gave a polite smile to Xia Yuqing: “I want to take Xiao Yuan out for a walk.”
“Go, go, even though Xiao Yuan has been in Ye Country for so long, she has mostly spent the time by my side, and has never gone out to walk around. Take advantage of this opportunity, and make sure to take Xiao Yuan out for a good look.”
Yin Xiang nodded with a smile. Leaving with Li Yuan, Xia Yuqing held her second baby and waved a small handkerchief to bid farewell, with a sense of pride that her family’s daughter had grown up.
As soon as Yin Xiang and Li Yuan left, Yan Ran arrived. When she heard Yan Ran’s request to see her, Xia Yuqing was trying to conquer the eldest with her second baby. However, the eldest kept holding on to second baby from beginning to end and ignored Xia Yuqing.
Xia Yuqing cleaned up the broken glasses of her heart and decided to look for a sense of accomplishment through Yan Ran instead.
“Oh, isn’t this the Gorgeous Tutor? A rare visitor, a rare visitor, is there something important for you to come here at this time?”
Yan Ran turned around and saw Xia Yuqing walking in with Xiao Bai. He couldn’t help but step back two steps. He still had lingering fears about Xiao Bai.
“Chen…Chen is here to find Li Yuan.”
“Here to find Li Yuan, how unlucky! Xiao Yuan just went out of the palace to play with Young Master Yin. I don’t know when they will be back, they may not even be back this evening. A single man and a single woman alone together at night, Gorgeous Tutor you should know what that means!”
“…” Yan Ran’s face suddenly turned as black as a bottle of soy sauce and as black as the bottom of a pot, “Since Li Yuan is not here, Chen still has important things to do and will leave first.”
“Hold on.” Xia Yuqing spoke lazily, stopping Yan Ran from leaving, “If you want to chase Xiao Yuan and Young Master Yin, Ben Gong wants to advise you, don’t go.”
“Why?” Yan Ran turned his head to Xia Yuqing, not daring to say anything.
“Isn’t this obvious? My Xiao Yuan is on the road to happiness. It is immoral of you to make trouble at this time.”
“Her life happiness? What happiness can that guy give her? Hmph…”
Xia Yuqing pet Xiao Bai’s fur as she calmly said: “At least better than you.”
Yan Ran was startled. He instantly became stimulated: “How is that hypocrite better than me?”
Xia Yuqing seemed to have been waiting for these words. Her eyes lit up. She threw Xiao Bai to the back, throwing him into Cui Er’s arms and clapped her hands together, “You’re really not convinced?”
Xia Yuqing stretched out her hand to the side. Immediately a girl stepped forward and handed her a long scroll.
Xia Yuqing slowly opened the scroll under Yan Ran’s gaze.
Yan Ran glanced carelessly, then his eyes almost popped out, “What is this?!”
Xia Yuqing raised her head proudly, “It took me a whole night to make this. This is the comparison table between you and Young Master Yin. Take a look, you are on the left and Young Master Yin is on the right.”
“…” How free are you to do this kind of thing?!
Yan Ran’s mouth twitched slightly, his eyebrows frowned when he suddenly saw something on the scroll.
“What is the little star on this representative of?”
“Oh, this!” Xia Yuqing smiled, pointing to the little star on the scroll, “This, it’s the gap between you and Young Master Yin. Look, look, look, no matter if its family background, character, temperament, or evaluation of how one treats Xiao Yuan, the winner gets a star, so this is the result…”
“!” Yan Ran looked at the pitiful lonely star under his name and the four/ five bright stars on Yin Xiang’s side.
“Why do I have only one on my side when he has so many on his side?!” Yan Ran complained angrily.
“Well, of course, it’s because you lost in all these aspects.” Xia Yuqing pointed to the star on Yin Xiang’s side, “Look, this one is for appearance. Frankly speaking, you are very good-looking, Gorgeous Tutor. However, from a woman’s point of view, you are a bit too beautiful.”
“…beautiful?”
“Yes, beautiful. A girl would not like a man who is more refined than herself, so compared to a pretty boy like you, Young Master Yin is more preferred. He is the gentle, elegant type with a bit more masculinity.”
“…” Pretty boy, masculinity, so Niang Niang, you are basically implying I am not masculine. Yan Ran felt an arrow in his right knee for an instant causing him to almost kneel down.
“Next, the second star is for one’s character. Young Master Yin is personable, elegant, and gentle. Gorgeous Tutor, you say that you are noble and refined, but when you ate Xiao Yuan, you ran away irresponsibly. So this star also belongs to Master Yin.”
“…” He…he was speechless! Yan Ran felt an arrow in his left knee and his figure began to shake.
“The third one is temperament. Yin Gongzi is surprisingly good, patient, and courteous. You are proud and chatty, which often makes people hate it, so this one is still for Yin Gong Zi.”
“…” Niang Niang, are you disgusted at me for nagging people often? Yan Ran seemed to hear the sound of his glass heart breaking.
“The fourth one is how one treats Xiao Yuan. Hm, I don’t need to say this for you to understand this! Young Master Yin has been obsessed with Xiao Yuan’s relationship for more than a decade and is consistent. No matter how far or how long they were apart, he still wanted to come back to find Xiao Yuan. But you, after eating Xiao Yuan, you acted like a scum! So this one is worthy of bestowing to Young Master Yin.”
“…” I am guilty, I am wrong. D*mn, I shouldn’t live in this world, I’m a scumbag! To Xiao Yuan I have treated her poorly since the beginning! Yan Ran only felt confused, as if he had been hit hard by something.
It took a long time to recover. Looking at the star under his name, he was shocked and said with joy, “This star, what is this star?”
Xia Yuqing looked over and suddenly realized: “Oh, this one? This is for family background!”
“…family background?”
“Yes, it’s looking at your previous generations of elders and their prominence. In fact, Yin Gong Zi is comparable to you as he is now the only son of the governor of the Guanlong nobles. His status is very distinguished. After weighing it, you guys are about the same, so you are tied, each gets one star.”
“…” Each gets a star? And it’s for family background? ! If this girl knew that Young Master Yin was not just the only son of the person-in-charge, but the real person-in-charge, would he lose this star?
“Then…what’s the conclusion?” Yan Ran swallowed and asked with great difficulty.
“Isn’t that obvious? Look here…” Xia Yuqing hit the place where Yin Xiang’s name was, “This is a young and promising young talent.”
“…What about me?”
Xia Yuqing flipped her wrist and struck the star below Yan Ran’s name: “This is a fool who can’t accomplish anything. He is only a second generation wastrel who knows how to eat his family’s money.”
“…” Wastrel, wastrel, wastrel…. Yan Ran felt that he was hit on his head and almost hit the ground.
Xia Yuqing threw the scroll in her hand to the side. When she looked over again, she found that Yan Ran was gone.
“Hey, where’s the Gorgeous Tutor?”
“Ahem…” A little palace lady poked Xia Yuqing’s shoulder and reminded, “Niang Niang, right there.”
Xia Yuqing turned her head and looked at Yan Ran. Yan Ran was crouched at the corner of the room drawing circles. If someone approached him, they could hear him muttering to himself: “I made a mistake, I confess I’m guilty. I am not a human! I start chaos and give up easily. Second generation wastrel, I…”
“…” Xia Yuqing went 囧. She walked silently behind Yan Ran, patted his shoulder and whispered, “Gorgeous Tutor, are you okay?”
Yan Ran paled. Turning his head, Xia Yuqing gasped in fright. She stepped back and grabbed the two girls beside her as a shield.
“Which direction did they go?”
Xia Yuqing didn’t dare play anymore. She poked her head from behind the two girls, stretched out her hand and pointed in the direction where the two had left.
Yan Ran stood up, took a deep breath, then…
“Woo…”
“…” Xia Yuqing and the others watched as Yan Ran ran away in tears, rushing in the direction where the two had left. They were shocked!
After a while, Xia Yuqing came back to her senses, and asked: “Did I say too much?”
“…”
At the same time, a certain Gorgeous Tutor who was crying while running was fueled with fire. He rushed in someone’s direction with jealousy and anger.
Hypocrite, pretty face, refined scum, I am at odds with you! Wooo….
