Qinghan looked at the old man with white beard.
The old man with the white beard snorted twice: "What are you looking at? If it was a fake key, you would have been sprayed to death by the poison! Get out of here! I'm annoyed by the sight of you."
Qinghan's face turned ashen, and his hands hidden in his sleeves clenched violently!
As the seventh prince of the Qinglong Empire, how could he have ever been treated so coldly?
But... the situation is stronger than the person. This old man with a white beard has an unpredictable temperament, and everyone will be scolded by him... So, it's not too shameful.
Qinghan didn't say a word and went away with a sullen face!
"Who else? Come up quickly!" The old man with white beard became impatient and glared at Nanmen Jingshu's team with a frown.
He pointed at Nanmen Jingshu and said, "You, you, yes, I'm talking about you. Don't waste time, come up quickly!"
The Seventh Prince suddenly felt balanced.
Look, the old man with white beard scolded Nanmen Jingshu casually. That's just his personality, so he didn't feel ashamed before.
The one who felt ashamed at the moment was Nanmen Jingshu.
Because she... didn't have any keys.
"Come up!" urged the old man with white beard.
Nanmen Jingshu could feel that the eyes of everyone around her were focused on her, as if she was stripped naked and paraded through the streets... That feeling really could not be expressed in words.
"We, our team..." Nanmen Jingshu took a deep breath, mustered her courage, and finally said it out loud, "Our team... didn't find the key."
"Not even one?" The old man with white beard looked at Nanmen Jingshu with a strange look.
Nanmen Jingshu nodded.
Can you please just ignore her, old man with white beard? Please!
But the more Nanmen Jingshu feared something, the more it would happen.
The old man with a white beard glared at Nanmen Jingshu and muttered, "Wasn't you the most promising and confident person before? You didn't even find a key? What a shame."
Nanmen Jingshu: "!!!"
Is today her unlucky day? Even the man who issues quests, such as the old man with the white beard, is stepping on her?!
If it were usual, Nanmen Jingshu would have exploded long ago, but... the situation was stronger than her, and she really didn't dare.
So she lowered her head, pretending that she didn't hear the ridicule of the old man with white beard.
Anyway, this old man is very bad, and Princess Yun will also be scolded. No one has more face than anyone else.
But……
However, Nanmen Jingshu would probably never have imagined in her lifetime that when the white-bearded old man's gaze fell on Su Luo, it would be so kind and gentle like a spring breeze and rain.
There was a gentle light in his kind eyes, just like the love an old butler gives to the young lady he raised in his palm.
Nanmen Jingshu's heart skipped a beat, her eyes widened, and she keenly felt that something was wrong.
Because the old butler who was originally standing high on the stage, he, he actually half-bowed, walked respectfully in front of Su Luo, looked at her with loving eyes, and smiled...
It was a genuine smile, not a scary, creepy one.
"Princess, would you like to try the key yourself, or should the old man do it for you?"
Su Luo looked at the old man with white beard with a strange look.
Princess? Should we call her Princess Yun, or something else?
What a princess with a double meaning.
Could it be that this little old man saw something in her?
Su Luo tried to see something from the old man with white beard, but the old man folded his hands in front of him, looking extremely respectful, but he didn't let anything out.
