Chapter 826: Return to the Human Realm 2
Ye Fei looked up and saw that a crowd had gathered in front of her, and the arguing was coming from within the crowd.
"Your Highness, should we take a detour?" Ling asked in a low voice as she approached Ye Fei, worried that she might be displeased.
Ye Fei's face remained expressionless as she simply said, "Just ignore it; there's no need to take a detour."
She strode over, and the closer she got, the more intense the argument became.
"You damned thief! Hand over my jade pendant right now!"
"I didn't steal your jade pendant, don't wrong an innocent person!"
"Pah! You have those shifty eyes, you're obviously a thief who likes to steal! I advise you to hand over the jade pendant right now, or I'll make sure you don't get away with it!"
"The world is going to the dogs and morality has declined! Everyone who's passing by, come and take a look! This guy not only falsely accused me, but also spouted nonsense about teaching me a lesson! Is there no law anymore?!"
...
Arguments and discussions rose and fell.
As Ye Fei passed by, her gaze swept indifferently over the crowd—
Surrounded by the crowd were a man with a sleazy appearance and arms draped over his shoulders, and another well-dressed young man.
The young man wore a pine-green brocade robe and a fine jade thumb ring on his hand. His face, which was fairly good-looking, was full of resentment.
The man with the lewd look on his face was incredibly arrogant, his gaze, tinged with a hint of greed, constantly sweeping over the boy.
Behind the boy stood a pretty girl in pink. She tugged at his sleeve and whispered, "Brother Qi also told us not to get into any trouble with the people here for the time being... Brother, how about we just call it quits?"
"Forget it?!" The boy was furious, his voice suddenly rising, a blush rising on his fair face from the emotional turmoil. "Yiyi! You know how important that jade pendant is to me! How could I just let it go like that!"
"Only this guy got close to us! If he didn't steal my jade pendant, who else could it be?!"
Ye Fei stopped in her tracks, her gaze involuntarily falling on the girl called "Yi Yi"—
Isn't that Wenrenqi's teammate?
She remembered that her name was Helan Yi.
So, the "Brother Chess" she mentioned earlier... is Wenren Qi, right?
Ye Fei's eyes flickered slightly. Wenren Qi was actually in the Western Radiance Continent? Shouldn't he be studying at the Star Luo Royal Academy in the Eastern Continent right now?
Ling felt a little strange when she saw Ye Fei stop and watch.
Princess Fei isn't the type to join in the fun. Could it be that she knows someone here?
The boy ignored Helan Yi and continued arguing relentlessly with the lewd man. Helan Yi stood aside, sighing and holding her forehead, not knowing what to do.
Gradually, many of the onlookers who had been watching the argument dispersed.
Ye Fei turned and left—she had no intention of recognizing He Lanyi or Wenren Qi.
However, after taking only a few steps, the lewd man suddenly shouted from behind, "Hey! Hey, little girl, don't go! I saw the jade pendant hanging on your waist! You stole it, didn't you!"
Ye Fei paused slightly and turned around. The lewd man strode up to her, his gaze falling on a clear purple jade pendant on her waist. "Look! Isn't this the jade pendant you lost!"
Upon hearing this, the boy immediately walked over. When he saw the jade pendant on Ye Fei's waist, his eyes widened: "This, this is my jade pendant!"
Ye Fei: "...?"
This is what they call—"walking on the road, pots falling from the sky"?
