Chapter 72 Secretly Informing You
Surprisingly, even as Shanxi's figure gradually disappeared into the distance, Old Master Shan showed no intention of pleading for leniency...
"Let's go too." The group exchanged glances and quickly slunk away.
After returning to the villa, Shanrou flew into another rage, smashing things in the house to pieces.
Upon learning that Shan Rou had gone to cause trouble, she not only failed to gain anything but was also infuriated by Shan Xi. She couldn't even get any accurate information from the Alchemist Guild, which made Shan Rou even more disgusted with Shan Rou.
"Mother, have you forgotten? The main purpose of this trip was to inquire about the Alchemist Guild!" Shan Yurou's brows furrowed in anxiety.
They said they were going to deal with Shanxi, but they ended up getting completely subdued by him instead.
They didn't even find out whether the collaboration she cared about most could continue!
What's the use of this gentleness?
"The Alchemist Guild? That brat Lulu, it's better if she doesn't cooperate, otherwise I'll have to see her all the time?" Shan Rouqi's chest heaved violently, like a volcano about to erupt.
In her opinion, not cooperating is exactly what she wants!
If they cooperate, wouldn't she have to see that wretched girl in her eyes every time she goes to the Shan family?
Shan Rou was unaware that she could no longer enter the main courtyard of the Shan family. At this moment, she still considered herself the noble eldest daughter of the Shan family, free to come and go as she pleased.
"Mother! My brother, the Crown Prince, said that if this matter falls through, he might not marry me!" Shan Yurou's eyes reddened with anxiety, and tears welled up in her eyes.
She had worked so hard to achieve what she had today, and she didn't want to lose the position of Crown Princess that was about to be hers!
"If he won't marry you over such a trivial matter, then I don't think he has any other good marriage prospects," Shanrou said angrily.
She was already furious because of Shan Xi, and now that Shan Yu Rou not only didn't comfort her but also blamed her, Shan Yu Rou immediately lost her temper.
Shan Yurou: "..."
Shan Yurou stared coldly at Shan Rou. At that moment, she suddenly realized that in Shan Rou's eyes, her happiness was so insignificant, far less important than Shan Rou's face, and less important than Shan Rou venting her anger!
It was clearly her own fault, so how dare she blame others?
Shan Yurou grew angrier the more she thought about it, and tears finally welled up in her eyes. She couldn't stay any longer and turned to run away.
Shan Mingyuan watched this scene with a heavy heart.
He thought that once he had appeased Shanrou, everything would be fine. Little did he expect that the confrontation between Shanrou and Shanxi would not only fail to affect Shanxi, but would also affect Yurou's marriage...
Shan Mingyuan now truly understands what it means to lift a stone only to drop it on one's own foot!
Meanwhile, in Junchao's renowned restaurant.
Seeing the Southern Dynasty Crown Prince bowing and scraping before her, Lulu couldn't help but smile, her face beaming with pride.
The Southern Dynasty Crown Prince, who was usually arrogant and haughty in front of others, changed his usual demeanor and sincerely raised his teacup to Lulu: "Miss Lulu, I will offer you tea instead of wine first."
Lulu looked at the Crown Prince of the Southern Dynasty in front of her, a slight smile playing on her lips, and said, "Your Highness, let me make this clear beforehand: I can't make decisions for the association president; at most, I can only inquire about the situation for you. If things don't work out, please don't blame me."
"How could that be? I am already extremely grateful that Miss Lulu was willing to inquire for me, so how could I blame you?" The Crown Prince of the Southern Dynasty smiled with an elegant demeanor. His gentle smile was like a spring breeze, making people feel very comfortable.
The two chatted amiably, exchanging words back and forth.
When the two walked out of the room, the Crown Prince of Junchao in the next private room had already clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white from the force.
He had long anticipated that the Southern Dynasty's Crown Prince was not a law-abiding citizen, and sure enough, he had booked a private room well in advance to host a banquet for Lulu.
Watching them leave, chatting and laughing in harmony, the Crown Prince of the Jun Dynasty couldn't help but imagine that they had already reached an agreement. He was immediately filled with anger, feeling a tightness in his chest, as if a huge rock was pressing on his heart, making it hard for him to breathe.
"Your Highness, shall we report this matter to the Emperor?" a servant asked cautiously, his voice so low it was almost inaudible.
The crown prince's face turned ashen, and he roared, "What kind of report is this! Do you really want me to marry another woman?"
He was only angry that day because Shanrou had given up such a good opportunity.
Ke Yurou…
Throughout the entire dynasty, it would be difficult to find a woman more outstanding than Yu Rou.
As the Crown Prince, his future Crown Princess, and the Empress of the Dynasty, must be the most outstanding woman, and Yu Rou is the only one who fits this description!
If all else fails, he will have no choice but to humble himself and personally go to Lulu to discuss it.
"I asked you to inquire about the president of the Alchemist Guild. Is there any news?" The prince asked the servant with a gloomy expression and piercing eyes.
The servant frowned and shook his head helplessly: "The president of the Alchemist Guild has always been a mystery. She has been missing for more than a hundred years. Even the elders of the Alchemist Guild do not know her whereabouts."
"Then keep searching! As long as she's still alive, we'll definitely find her."
"If all else fails, just send someone to follow Lulu. Isn't she going to ask the president for instructions?"
"Follow her, and we'll definitely find the president of the Alchemist Guild!" the prince said sternly, his eyes revealing determination and resolve.
Lulu has already been thoroughly offended. Since that's the case, he'll start with the president of the Alchemist Guild. He refuses to believe he can't handle a mere young girl!
Shanjia Main Courtyard.
Just as Shanxi was about to go out for a stroll, she heard that Junyan had come to visit.
A banquet for the emperor?
Shanxi raised an eyebrow slightly, a hint of curiosity flashing in her eyes. She then sat up, her posture elegant and composed: "Let him in."
Finally, he didn't forget to instruct Old Master Chen to serve the best tea.
A short while later, Junyan strode towards Shanxi.
Today, he was dressed in a light blue gown. The gown was made of soft material and had a warm luster. With its flowing sleeves, he looked like a noble and extraordinary young master, and his every move exuded a sense of ease and freedom.
He had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, a high nose bridge, and beautifully shaped lips. At this moment, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, carrying a faint smile, which added to his dashing and wicked charm.
"What wind blew the Seventh Prince here?" Shanxi asked with a smile and gentle eyes.
She gracefully handed over the teacup, her voice as clear and melodious as a silver bell.
Jun Yan took the teacup, gently swirled it, and just by bringing it close to his nose to smell it, he knew it was the finest Jade Dew.
The refreshing aroma of tea instantly filled his nostrils, putting him in a good mood. The corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up slightly: "My dear Xi'er, I've come to secretly deliver a message to you."
