Sui Yi walked towards the judges' table. When Thor saw her, he looked anxious. What was this brat up to? He watched as she gave him a meaningful look.
Sui Yicai had no time to pay attention to him. She approached step by step, frowning, and went around to the back of the judges' table, standing in front of Nie Shangheng. The man was also looking at her.
"Have we met before?" A sense of familiarity welled up inside her, and Suiyi couldn't help but speak first.
"Perhaps it was from a past life!" The man tried to recall all the memories in his mind, but he couldn't find any trace of her.
Sui Yi approached, extending her right hand to grasp his left, and a wisp of spiritual energy flowed into his body. The two shared a soul contract; if it were him, he would be able to sense it.
Sui Yi had no idea how shocking her actions were; everyone was watching them.
Those from the capital, in particular, were utterly astonished. No girl had ever dared to hold his hand so boldly before. The reason was that no girl could stand within a meter of him; if another woman with ill intentions tried to get close, the consequences would be dire. Moreover, based on his many years of acquaintance, he was never a man who wouldn't hit a woman. If you angered him, he wouldn't care who you were.
This is unbelievable! Is this the attraction between two extraordinary individuals? It seems those of the same kind truly have more to say. Both are exceptionally talented, both are so beautiful—this is a gift from heaven, a truly blessed match! Why don't I receive such good treatment?
Alas! Two tigers cannot share one mountain, unless one is male and the other female. These two complement each other perfectly.
"Tsk tsk! How dare she! When did Mu Bingying become so bold? Holding a man's hand in front of everyone, how shameless!" A female student looked at the two on the judges' panel with jealousy and indignation. How could she have ruined such a perfect man?
"Yeah! That woman is shameless!" another girl immediately chimed in. These two were usually at odds with Sui Yi. They were students in Class D. Back when the original owner of this body was around, she had been teased by these two many times. But after Sui Yi came, she was taught a lesson and became much more obedient. However, she still couldn't control her mouth.
"I think you two are just sour grapes! If you're so capable, why don't you try being as amazing as her and go explore a desolate planet by yourself?" A boy who was near them couldn't stand it anymore and retorted sarcastically.
"Who knows what methods she used? Whether it's true or false, she didn't say. Look at her mental strength test results just now, D level, not even as high as mine. Is she faking it to fool honest guys like you? Look at that brute strength, the two of them are together all day long, who knows what shady things they're doing."
"Shut up! Your mouth is full of filth, it's really ugly. Jealousy has twisted your otherwise decent face, making you utterly hideous."
"You..." The boy's words were anything but polite, leaving the girl half-dead.
Sui Yi and Nie Shangheng didn't care about the situation of the people around them. Instead, they focused on doing their own thing, automatically blocking out their surroundings, as if there were only the two of them in the world.
After Sui Yi channeled her spiritual energy into Nie Shangheng's body, she received an extremely familiar feeling in return. Sui Yi smiled radiantly, her bright smile making the world pale in comparison. Suddenly, flowers bloomed, reddening the spring blossoms and startling the autumn moon. This exquisite smile instantly blossomed in Nie Shangheng's heart.
Thor was taken aback. He hadn't seen the girl smile so happily in a long time. As long as she was happy, he would support her no matter what she did.
As for Nie Shangheng, feeling the warmth within him, a surge of emotion welled up in his heart, softening his usually cold face and making him look at her with tenderness in his eyes.
"Tsk tsk!" It's not that he's sexually unstable, but rather that he hasn't met the person who makes his heart flutter. What a pity, I wonder how heartbroken those rich young ladies in the capital must be.
Meanwhile, the girl in red, Shen Jingyi, the granddaughter of the dean of the Imperial Capital Academy, watched with amusement. She couldn't help it; within the academy, she was a pitiful victim exploited by him because her grandfather had a very close relationship with the Nie family—they were sworn brothers. So, the two of them had grown up together. She knew everything about him. Now, with a sister-in-law, she had someone to complain to, to see how he could continue to bully her.
After Sui Yi released his hand, Nie Shangheng felt a surge of displeasure, though he wasn't sure why he reacted this way. Frowning, this man, usually so strategic and decisive, felt his heart beating fast today, almost uncontrollably!
After this ordeal, Sui Yi understood; it really was him. However, perhaps like last time, to prevent the Heavenly Dao from discovering he was an outsider, his memories had been temporarily sealed, and he didn't remember her. That's why the way he looked at her was a mixture of unfamiliarity and curiosity.
“From now on, you’re my boyfriend. This ring is our token of love. Where do you think I should wear it?” Sui Yi took the ring off her little finger and took his hand again to ask.
"I...please put it on my ring finger!" After hearing Sui Yi's question, Nie Shangheng raised his hand and looked at it, wondering where would be most suitable to put the ring. He hadn't expected that he would agree so readily and so naturally! And even put it on his ring finger. You see, a ring on the ring finger represents a wedding ring.
Without a word, Sui Yi put it on him herself. "I have some things to do now. Do you want to stay here and watch the fun, or come with me?"
“Let’s go together!” Nie Shangheng replied without hesitation.
"Let's go then!" Then she took Nie Shangheng's hand and walked out of the square.
No one expected things to turn out this way, especially the Third Prince and his companions, who were completely dumbfounded. They had never seen such a shameless person before. The young lady just beckoned with her finger, gave him a ring, said a few words, and then obediently followed her away. Was this still the same shrewd man they knew? Could he have been switched?
"Third brother, I... I didn't see wrong, did I? Nie Shangheng just left with her like that? He's such a womanizer! I see it clearly now. But the two of them look so good together. The young lady is so beautiful, and she's just as capable as him." Shen Jingyi turned into a little fangirl, watching the two leave with a lovesick look on her face.
Why do I always feel that the young lady is so assertive, while Nie Shangheng is the submissive one, so obedient?
"If you're not blind, then it's true! I never expected this guy to go with them so easily. Do you think this trip was worth it or not?"
You'll find out then!
Thor was both happy and dejected. He was happy that he had made the right match, but he was also a little sad that the cabbage he had worked so hard to raise had been eaten by someone else's pig.
