âThird Prince invited me?â Lou Qianxue frowned, but then relaxed. âOkay, go back and tell Third Prince that I will be there on time.â
When Third Princeâs men left, the corners of Lou Qianxueâs lips curled upward. She sneered. âIt seems like the prince has yet to realize the reality after that incident at Baicao Garden, huh?â
At the next moment...
Her expression turned grim. âBut... where did Dan Taiyuan go? If I donât go to the Martial Arts Conference now, it will be too late.â
She was determined to get a containment fruit!
At noon, Lou Qianxue arrived at Third Princeâs residence on time for the appointment.
âMiss Lou, youâre here. Please, come in.â Third Prince personally came out to welcome Lou Qianxue.
A trace of surprise flashed past Lou Qianxueâs eyes. She pretended to be flattered and followed him in.
âMiss Lou, youâre really famous in Tian Zhao! From now on, no one will dare to look down on you. Congratulations, congratulations!â
Lou Qianxue pursed her lips and shyly lowered her head. âNo way! No matter how famous I get, I canât compare to you, Your Highness.â
The Third Prince smugly smiled. âMiss Lou, youâre too humble... Howâs the matter that I talked with you at Baicao Garden going?â
âAh... Iâm sorry, Your Highness! You know that I was focused on refining weapons due to my bet with Lu Liang some time ago. Hence, I forgot to put in a good word for you in front of Xiaoxiao and the rest. Furthermore, I did not manage to catch âJade-Masked Blast.ââ
âIt doesnât matter. We can talk about this slowly... Miss Qianxue, to be honest, I invited you today for another matter.â
âHuh?â
âI hope that you can become a guest of my residence. Everyone knows that I have a desire for talented people. If youâre willing to come to my residence, Iâll definitely not turn you away.â
âUh...â Lou Qianxue scoffed in her heart. On the outside, however, she hesitantly looked at Third Prince.â This...â
âMiss Qianxue, you might not know this, but I have some ties with the Zhu family and the Xu family. If you become a guest of my residence, your grudge with them can be written off.â
Lou Qianxueâs eyes lit up. However, when she saw Mu Wushuang, who was standing beside Third Prince, her expression darkened again. âBut...â
The Third Prince immediately understood. âI know that you have some grudges with Mu Wushuang, so I specially brought her here today to apologize to you... Wushuang! Quickly kneel and apologize to Miss Qianxue!ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Mu Wushuang widened her eyes in disbelief. She then glared at Third Prince with grief and shock. âYour Highness!â
Third Princeâs expression turned grim, âWhy arenât you kneeling yet? Why? Do you want me to force you?â
Mu Wushuangâs eyes brimmed with tears. She glared at Lou Qianxue with hatred and jealousy and clenched her jaw.
However...
Thump!
Enduring her humiliation, she knelt in front of Lou Qianxue and sobbed. âMiss Lou... I was wrong to treat you disrespectfully in the past. Please... please forgive me.â
â...â
Lou Qianxueâs gaze landed on Mu Wushuang. âDo you regret choosing such a man?â
Third Prince stared at Lou Qianxue in shock. âYou...â
A trace of confusion flashed past Mu Wushuangâs eyes. Then, she suddenly raised her head and glared at Lou Qianxue. âWhat do you mean? Are you saying that His Highness is bad?â
Lou Qianxue disappointedly stared at her and sneered. âWhat a pitiful person.â
She put down her cup of tea and coldly stood up. âYour Highness, the act youâve put up is rather interesting, but I donât like watching it. So, goodbye.â
âYou... are rejecting me?â Third Princeâs expression turned vicious. He glared at Lou Qianxueâs back, frowned, and bellowed. âWait... Lou Qianxue, thereâs something you might not know. If you knew, I donât think you would be willing to be friends with âJade-Masked Blastâ again.â
