Chapter 89: Quarrel

Chapter 89: Quarrel

We are still standing on the land of the Fit Kingdom and will be staying here for a while, so it would not be good to be too disrespectful.

Xuanyuan Xingyao raised his glass and returned the toast, then replied.

"The princess's dance is truly breathtaking, but unfortunately, I am a rough man. I do not care for singing and dancing but prefer swords, spears, and clubs."

Xuanyuan Xingyao's words not only praised Princess Yurou's dance, but also prevented King Fate and Princess Yurou from losing face.

However, he also implicitly expressed that he would not arrange a marriage and had no intention of falling in love with Princess Yurou.

In fact, no one knew that this last sentence was actually Xuanyuan Xingyao's way of implicitly telling everyone that he actually liked men.

However, no one present except Feng Xuanzhou could hear it. Even Nangong Jing, immersed in a sour mood, did not realize the meaning of Xuanyuan Xingyao's words.

King Fit was able to defeat several of his brothers, ascend the throne at a weak position, and hold on to the throne in just a few years. He is certainly not a fool.

How could he not hear the hidden meaning in Xuanyuan Xingyao's words? A hint of regret flashed across his eyes.

In fact, King Fate had never been optimistic about this marriage from the beginning.

However, King Fate knew that Princess Yurou loved Xuanyuan Xingyao, so he wanted to let her give it a try. If she succeeded, that would be the best.

Not only can he form an alliance with the Dragon Shadow Empire, but he can also place a chess piece next to Xuanyuan Xingyao.

Unfortunately, Xuanyuan Xingyao didn't take the bait.

"It's normal for men to prefer swords, spears, clubs, and clubs. Like the prince, I prefer watching warriors practice martial arts rather than singing and dancing. That scene is enough to make one's blood boil."

King Fite said meaningfully.

Xuanyuan Xingyao always felt that there was another meaning behind King Fate's words, but now was not the time to think about it.

In any case, this marriage that was not made public has been resolved.

It can be said that except for Princess Yurou who was heartbroken, everyone else was quite satisfied.

Xuanyuan Xingyao solved a problem, and General Qi no longer had to worry about taking back individual princesses. Even King Fate had slightly tested Xuanyuan Xingyao's bottom line.

After Princess Yurou sadly left, today's welcome banquet came to an end.

Just like when he came, Prince Wright personally saw him off to the palace gate when he left.

However, it was already quite late, and Xuanyuan Xingyao did not want to mobilize any more troops, so he firmly rejected Prince Wright's suggestion to arrange for a guard of honor to send them back.

All he had to do was ask Prince Wright to arrange a larger carriage to take the three of them back.

Prince Light couldn't do anything to Xuanyuan Xingyao, but he couldn't really arrange only one carriage.

Prince Light thought about it and decided to dispatch a guard team to escort Xuanyuan Xingyao and his group back to the inn.

When General Qi came, it was inconvenient because the embassy and the inn were in two different directions, so he did not escort him personally.

When he returned this time, General Qi did not dare to completely hand over the safety of Xuanyuan Xingyao to the Fate Kingdom.

He personally escorted Xuanyuan Xingyao to the inn and watched him return to his room before returning to the embassy to rest with peace of mind.

Xuanyuan Xingyao didn't notice anything wrong at first.

But it wasn't until the two of them finished washing up and were ready to go to bed.

Xuanyuan Xingyao realized that Nangong Jing was a little too quiet. Since he was a child, Nangong Jing has always been like a little sun in front of his people, and he is very active.

After the two of them were together, they liked to stick together and talk in private no matter what.

But on the way back from the palace, Nangong Jing didn't say a word.

After returning to the room, she ignored him, quietly washed up, took off her clothes and went to bed.

What shocked Xuanyuan Xingyao even more was that Nangong Jing, who usually liked to sleep outside, actually slept inside and turned over with his back to him.

This is clearly a sign of anger towards him. Did he do something wrong to anger her?

But that shouldn't be the case. He didn't seem to have done anything today, and he was fine before entering the palace.

Xuanyuan Xingyao carefully recalled everything that happened tonight.

During the banquet, Nangong Jing seemed to be in a good mood, and he and Feng Xuanzhou chatted a lot.

But the banquet seemed to become quieter in the later stages, especially after Princess Yurou performed her dance.

Xuanyuan Xingyao showed an expression of sudden enlightenment, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"Jealous???"

Xuanyuan Xingyao lifted the quilt and climbed onto the bed, then hugged Nangong Jing from behind regardless of his struggle.

"Who said I was jealous? I'm just tired and sleepy and want to rest. Is that okay?"

Nangong Jing said stubbornly that he would never say that he was jealous.

Nangong Jing's arrogant little look made Xuanyuan Xingyao feel that he was even cuter and he wanted to kiss him even more. What should he do?

If I kiss him now, will he be even angrier?

Xuanyuan Xingyao began to have random thoughts in his noble head.

When Xuanyuan Xingyao finally broke free from his wild thoughts, he found that the person who was sulking just now had actually fallen asleep.

Xuanyuan Xingyao didn't know what to say. He was angry just now, and now he fell asleep. What a speed.

Xuanyuan Xingyao looked at the familiar sleeping face and was stunned for a long time before he reacted.

My chest began to vibrate, and I laughed muffledly. What an utterly adorable thing!

Xuanyuan Xingyao could imagine what kind of expression Nangong Jing would have when he woke up tomorrow.

It must be frustrating, embarrassing, and cute.

I must get up earlier than Nangong Jing tomorrow. I can’t miss Nangong Jing’s expression when he gets up.

Before falling asleep, Xuanyuan Xingyao thought to himself.

Xuanyuan Xingyao usually gets up early in the morning because he has to practice martial arts.

Now, in order to watch the fun, people wake up before dawn in the morning.

Seeing that it was still early, he went downstairs and practiced swordsmanship and boxing in the backyard of the inn for a while.

When it’s almost time, I go upstairs to wash my face and take a shower.

After I had cleaned myself up completely, the person who had been sulking and falling asleep last night finally woke up.

Nangong Jing was a little unresponsive when he first woke up, but after he sat up, what happened last night slowly emerged in his mind.

He was jealous and upset because of Princess Yurou yesterday, but before he could finish his upset, he fell asleep.

Nangong Jing covered his face in frustration. It was so embarrassing.

Xuanyuan Xingyao sat aside, watching Nangong Jing's expression change from time to time, and thought to himself that it was just as interesting as he expected.

However, Xuanyuan Xingyao didn't dare to laugh, for fear that he would just be sulking and getting really angry.

Moreover, anger is very harmful to the body. Xuanyuan Xingyao also doesn't want to have a quarrel with Nangong Jing over such a small matter.

Xuanyuan Xingyao stood up and walked to the bedside and sat down. Then, regardless of Nangong Jing's struggle, he took her into his arms.

"I like you and I choose to be with you, so I will never marry someone else."

Until this moment, Xuanyuan Xingyao still thought that Nangong Jing was jealous because of the marriage proposed by King Fite last night.

Nangong Jing was still struggling because of the regret and embarrassment, but after hearing Xuanyuan Xingyao's words, he stopped struggling and leaned on Xuanyuan Xingyao.

"In fact, rather than being uncomfortable with King Fate's proposal of marriage, I'm more envious. I envy Princess Yurou for being able to openly express her love for you."

Xuanyuan Xingyao's expression froze for a moment. This was actually the case.

He thought Nangong Jing was just jealous, and he felt a little uncomfortable, thinking that Nangong Jing didn't trust him enough.

It turned out that he had underestimated Nangong Jing's love for him.

"I'm sorry, Jing'er. I misunderstood. I promised you that I would make sure that our father recognized us. I would definitely give you the opportunity to openly confess your feelings to me."

Although Nangong Jing was touched by Xuanyuan Xingyao's promise, there were still some things he had to consider.

"Why don't you confess to me, but I confess to you?"

Xuanyuan Xingyao said innocently upon hearing this.

"Didn't you say you envied Princess Yurou for being able to openly express her love for me?"

The look in her eyes when she looked at Nangong Jing seemed to say, "How can you be so unreasonable?"

Nangong Jing really didn't even have the energy to be angry, and pinched Xuanyuan Xingyao in annoyance.

"You really don't want to suffer any loss at all."

"Are you not quarreling anymore?"

Xuanyuan Xingyao was not angry when he was pinched. It didn't hurt anyway. He lowered his head and asked Nangong Jing lovingly.

"Actually, I wasn't upset. I just felt a little uncomfortable yesterday, but I've adjusted myself when I woke up today."

Nangong Jing would never admit that he had a quarrel yesterday.

Xuanyuan Xingyao laughed and thought to himself that they were not upset yet, as she slept with her back to him last night.

However, Xuanyuan Xingyao didn't dare to say it, because if he did, someone would get angry and embarrassed.

"Is this a reconciliation?"

Feng Xuanzhou watched the two of them walking in the same row. Although they were not holding hands, the atmosphere between them was obviously very harmonious.

Last night, before Xuanyuan Xingyao noticed that something was wrong with Nangong Jing, Feng Xuanzhou noticed it first.

Feng Xuanzhou was also wondering at the time whether Nangong Jing was jealous, and he was also worried that Nangong Jing would quarrel with Xuanyuan Xingyao after returning.

Now looking at the loving look on their faces, you know that the matter has been resolved.

After being worried for a whole night, I can finally put my mind at ease.

Xuanyuan Xingyao raised his brows slightly. He had noticed this last night, but he only realized it after returning to his room.

"When did we have a quarrel?"

He is still being stubborn and refuses to admit that he is upset.

Xuanyuan Xingyao and Feng Xuanzhou looked at each other, and then both smiled meaningfully.

Well, if they don’t want to admit it, then don’t admit it. It’s enough for them to know what’s going on.

"While I was waiting for you, I caught some gossip. It seems the deadline for participating teams has almost expired, and the opening ceremony will probably be tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. The written exam will be held directly on the first day, and many people have already gone back to their rooms to prepare."

I have to say that Feng Xuanzhou is really a social expert. No matter where he goes, no matter whether he knows them or not, he can always get close to them.

"What's the point of cramming at the last minute? It's better to just relax."

Nangong Jing always felt that cramming before an exam was the most useless thing.

Not to mention how much you can remember in such a short time, your originally calm mood may become irritable, which will eventually affect the exam.

Xuanyuan Xingyao and Feng Xuanzhou very much agreed with Nangong Jing's words.

Therefore, when others were busy reading a few more books, these three people were eating and drinking, and having a great time.
