Su Qing's eyes widened slightly. This was terrifying; this woman's level was incredibly high.
Next, the three men each tried their best to make their presence known to the princess and to show off their abilities.
Chris initially acted normally, engaging in normal conversation, after all, it was a legitimate blind date.
When two parties meet for the first time, they should ideally leave a good impression.
But he was gradually led astray by the two sycophants and began to fawn over the girl in front of him.
Su Qing sat aside, watching the drama unfold, and felt she had truly learned something new; she never imagined that being a sycophant could be contagious.
Faced with the various attempts to please her from three men, the girl was somewhat overwhelmed. When trying to fend them off, she couldn't maintain the effortless grace of a skilled younger sister. She failed to convey the genuine feeling of "I just see you as good brothers," appearing awkward and somewhat like she was acting.
However, with the three men locked in a fierce battle of wits, no one noticed the princess's lackluster performance.
But the princess herself must have realized it, for she looked tired and wrote a line of delicate handwriting on the paper.
I'm not feeling well, so I'm going to go rest first. Brothers, don't fight!
He nodded apologetically to the three of them and left, accompanied by a maid.
Only three people remained in the courtyard, and they made no attempt to hide the tension between them.
Who are you two?
Chris frowned and questioned him.
It was only then that he realized, wasn't he supposed to be meeting the princess? What's with these two bastards who suddenly barged in?
"That's the question we should be asking you!"
Long Dong, with his robust physique, snorted coldly and said in a muffled voice, "We two grew up with Yilian, why should you, you bastard, try to take her away as soon as you arrive?"
Tailcloth also glared angrily.
Chris was speechless, feeling somewhat guilty, because it seemed that he was indeed in the wrong, stealing someone else's childhood sweetheart.
Su Qing, meanwhile, watched the whole thing unfold from the sidelines, showing no intention of helping at all.
He needs to teach his younger brother a lesson: it's wrong to fawn over pretty girls.
The three engaged in a heated argument; the other two wanted Chris to give up, while Chris wanted the other two to let go, and they ultimately parted on bad terms.
On his way back, Chris was sullen. He had finally met a girl he liked, but he didn't expect there to be two rivals for her affections.
What gift do you think I should prepare for her tomorrow?
Chris felt some pressure. Although the marriage was arranged by the king and his father, it didn't seem to be entirely safe now.
Gift?
Su Qing was slightly taken aback, then suddenly looked at Chris with a serious expression.
This guy actually wants to give that woman a gift, that's outrageous, what a spendthrift!
Su Qing treated the little golden retriever like his own brother. They were like brothers, sharing everything. The little golden retriever's money was his money. But now Chris actually wanted to use his money to buy things to please other women. He was simply inhuman.
The serious gaze from beneath the black robe fell upon him, carrying a hint of chilling coldness.
Chris shuddered, somewhat bewildered: "What's wrong?"
Don't you think you're becoming increasingly decadent?
Su Qing spoke with unusual seriousness, feeling that he should properly educate the little golden retriever, as it was unacceptable for him to be thinking about women all the time.
Su Qing was very worried that if things continued like this, this bastard might squander all the family fortune before she could take over his assets.
"Look at yourself now! All you think about all day is women and women's bodies. Have you forgotten your dream? Didn't you want to become the greatest knight?"
Su Qing was heartbroken and disappointed.
"Of course I haven't forgotten!"
Chris was taken aback, and blurted out a rebuttal, then looked somewhat bewildered: "Is there a conflict between liking girls and being a knight?"
Su Qing looked at him with disappointment. As a dragon, she earnestly explained to a knight: "Of course there is conflict. Soft and gentle girls will only corrupt your mind, corrupt your soul, and become obstacles on your path of cultivation."
"Do you remember the old yellow dog's owner? After leaving the girl, he quickly rose to the Glory Realm. If he hadn't been held back by the girl in the early stages, he would probably be a Titled Powerhouse by now."
"You can imagine how terrifying women can be. If you want to become the greatest knight, you can't let girls hold you back."
Su Qing earnestly advised, "So, between being a girl and becoming a strong person, which would you choose?"
"Become strong!"
Chris answered without hesitation, but then quickly thought of something: "But guarding a princess is also one of the knight's honors..."
Su Qing looked at him: "Are any of those knights any real threat?"
Chris was speechless. He had to admit that there were indeed no famous figures among the knights who chose the path of protection and pledged allegiance to the princess.
Instead, they chose the path of offense, and many renowned figures emerged among the knights who took dragon slaying as a symbol of honor.
Are girls really going to be obstacles on the path of knights?
Of course, Su Qing was talking nonsense. The knights who chose the path of protection naturally produced many strong individuals, perhaps even more, but they were all very low-key, unlike those knights who chose the path of attack and became famous for their fierce battles.
But with the example of the old yellow dog's owner before him, Chris was somewhat at a loss.
A balance scale appeared in my mind, with the knight's dream I've had since childhood on one side and a soft, gentle girl on the other.
There is a clear difference in weight between the two, and the weight of dreams is obviously heavier for the boy.
