Chapter 140: Straight Man



He wanted to push Yaruo's hand away, but when he thought about having skin contact with her, he quickly pulled his hand back.

Yaruo was so angry that she almost exploded. She said angrily: "It's a deal if I say so! Come with me!"

As she said that, she grabbed Ling Ziyu's collar and was about to walk out, but when she reached the door, she was blocked by someone.

Mu Hui rarely left the palace and came to visit her shop happily, but she saw this scene. She was immediately furious and shouted, "Let him go!"

Seeing that it was her, Yaruo smiled contemptuously, "You are a princess and I am also a princess. Who are you to order me around? Get out of my way!"

"Then what rights do you have to order me around? Let me go!" Mu Hui refused to give in.

The two of them confronted each other at the door, Yaruo still holding the terrified Ling Ziyou in her hands.

Su Bei happened to be in the store. Two customers were chatting about interesting things in the store next door. When they talked about the girl in red snatching a man on the spot, she hurried over and happened to see the duel between princesses.

Mu Hui looked at Wenwen who was weak and didn't know what happened. Suddenly, she became furious. She grabbed Yaruo by the collar and shouted at her: "You are too arrogant to dare to snatch my people! This is our Wu country! Not your Gaoliu!"

Su Bei really wanted to applaud her, but now was not the right time, because she knew that Yaruo had a bad temper and would probably start a fight the next moment! She hurried over and grabbed Yaruo's hand that was about to hit Mu Hui's face, and shouted loudly: "Do you want to fight me again?!"

Yaruo frowned immediately. She had failed to gain the upper hand over Su Bei several times. If she hadn't relied on sneak attacks at Prince Su's Mansion, she would not have been able to hurt Su Bei. But she was not much better off and was even more seriously injured.

She really didn't want to fight with Su Bei.

"What's it got to do with you?!" she shouted.

"They are all my friends, what does it have to do with me?!" Su Bei was not willing to be outdone.

Yaruo seemed to have just remembered that Su Bei competed with her because of Mu Hui. She glanced at Mu Hui sinisterly and pushed Ling Ziyu away heavily.

Mu Hui also let go.

Yaruo left angrily and began to think about how to tie this man to her bed.

All of this was seen by Mo Xiao, who was quietly following Yaruo. His eyes flashed and an idea came into his mind.

Mo Gai Shi ordered him to make friends with Prince and Princess Gao Liu in order to arrange a marriage between Mo Liao and Princess Gao Liu, but he stole the limelight from Mo Liao.

This marriage was originally supposed to be his, but he hated this woman from the bottom of his heart. But now he seems to have a better idea.

Even if they were to arrange a marriage, he didn't have to touch this woman. As long as he could send all the men she liked to her bed, she would surely be happier.

He looked at Ling Ziyou from afar and slightly raised the corner of his lips.

Over there, several people did not notice his presence. Princess Mu Hui's mouth drooped, with a look of annoyance on her face, "Why are there so many people in the store? Are they all here to buy hairy monkeys?"

Su Bei curled his lips. You really think too much. Something that can't be eaten or drunk really doesn't have such good sales...

Ling Ziyou straightened his clothes and his mood, bowed and said, "Your Highness, the store is usually mostly empty. I think it's a waste, so I asked Miss Abei to help attract some customers. Some of them will buy Maohou."

Mu Hui originally didn't like having other customers in the store, but when she heard this, she immediately changed her mind, "It looks pretty good, so let's do it. But I think we should add some people to avoid such shameless customers!"

After she finished speaking, she counted on her fingers as if calculating how many people to add. Ling Ziyou hurriedly said, "Your Highness, there is no need to bother. I have already hired quite a few people."

Mu Hui looked around and saw many shop assistants walking around in the store. She felt relieved and whispered, "Mammy said it's best not to let outsiders know my identity. From now on, you don't have to bow when you see me, and you don't have to call me princess. Just call me Hui'er."

Her voice was very soft and gentle, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Ling Ziyou was the same. He nodded in agreement seriously.

Just as Su Bei was about to say something, he heard footsteps at the door. A gust of cold wind came in, carrying Chu Younan's gentle voice, "Hui Er is here too, but is she here to try the pearl milk tea?"

This stuff really suits his taste. He would drink a bowl of it every day and then take Su Bei back home. Su Bei teased him several times, "Don't drink so much that the original owner's muscular body becomes a fat man."

Having said that, every time Su Bei saw him, there were stars twinkling in his eyes. Distance still creates beauty after all.

After Princess Mu Hui greeted him, she talked to Ling Ziyou about the business in the store. Su Bei quietly poked his arm and said in a low voice: "Look carefully, is Princess Mu Hui's expression different from usual?"

There were also stars twinkling in her eyes, and Chu Younan naturally saw it, but he pretended to be confused and said, "What's the difference? Did you change your lip balm today?"

Su Bei smacked his lips, "What a straight man, I mean his expression! Look carefully, isn't it very gentle? His eyes are very bright?"

Chu Younan looked at her seriously, "Same as you."

Su Bei rolled his eyes at him, embarrassment flashing in his eyes, "How could I? Impossible! How could I have that expression? She must have fallen for Ling Ziyu, I..."

Chu Younan looked at her calmly, with stars in his eyes and a smile on his lips. The dark satin cloak neutralized his elegance and added a bit of evil beauty.

Su Bei felt even more embarrassed. He didn't realize it before, but ever since they stopped sleeping together, he seemed to be getting more and more handsome, and he often appeared in his dreams.

In the dream, he was still touching her all the time, but she didn't seem to resist at all, and even felt that she enjoyed it...

"What are you two doing? Haven't you seen enough at home?" Mu Hui came over, laughing and teasing.

Su Bei raised his head abruptly, glanced at Ling Ziyou and then looked at Mu Hui, blurting out, "Same as you!"

Mu Hui blushed immediately and said in embarrassment: "How could I have that? You're lying!"

That expression was exactly the same as Su Bei's just now, which made Chu Younan couldn't help laughing, "Hui'er is also old enough to get married, would you like me to ask the emperor for permission to grant you a marriage?"

"You'd better go and ask for permission from our father yourself! It's time for you to have a princess in your palace!" Mu Hui said angrily, then she picked up her skirt and ran out.

Chu Younan wanted to, but according to Su Bei's current status, she could only be a wife at most. She was afraid that Chu Yan would not even allow her to be a concubine.

But Abei has been saying that since it’s monogamy, he should at least give her a decent status.

After Mu Hui ran out, Su Bei also turned around and left, but Chu Younan had been laying out a long line for more than ten days, and it was time to close the net.

Today is the Lantern Festival.
