Chapter 296: How Thick-Skinned

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Unlike last night, today’s flower viewing banquet was not a formal banquet. Therefore, there was no obvious division between men and women. They were all seated according to family.

When Liu Shimei entered, she attracted many glances, some of which were malicious, and she sensitively swept her gaze over them.

To her surprise, Liu Yan’er was sitting together with Liu Anhe!

Liu Yan’er’s leg injury had relapsed last night, and she did not go back. She even asked someone to carry her over!

It seemed that he was unwilling to let go of any opportunity to get close to the Crown Prince.

“Let’s go, let’s go.” Liang Yi reached out to pull Liu Shimei away.

Huangfu Lingyao was quick to intercept and grabbed his hand, preventing him from touching her. “Don’t lay a hand on Wife!”

Liang Yi glared at him. “What’s wrong with me pulling my sister?”

Liu Shimei did not bother to mediate and said with a smile, “Lingyao, let’s go sit with Ninth Brother and the others.”

Before Huangfu Lingyao could reply, the Crown Prince, who had already taken his seat, turned around. Seeing them still standing, he said, “Second Imperial Brother, come sit over here!”

Beside him, there was an empty table!

He didn’t call Liu Shimei to join them, only Huangfu Lingyao!

Huangfu Lingyao was speechless.

How could he not see that Huangfu He was deliberately trying to separate him and Liu Shimei?

“I don’t want to!” There’s an advantage to being a fool, and it showed now. “I want to sit with Wife. Wherever she goes, 1’11 be there!”

These two brothers were indeed the center of attention. Everyone looked at them quietly for a moment.

Huangfu Lingyao’s face showed a silly and childish expression as he tightly held Liu Shimei’s hand. “Wife, 1 want to be with you!”

Liu Shimei felt a bit of a headache!

Huangfu He was the Crown Prince, and if he did not arrange for her to sit there, she naturally could not go. Breaking royal rules was not as simple as offending just one person.

Liang Yi took the opportunity to pull Liu Shimei’s sleeve and said, “Sister, come over here quickly!”

This time, Huangfu Lingyao did not object to Liang Yi’s actions. He allowed Liang Yi to pull Liu Shimei to the side where the Liang family members were sitting. Then, he followed her and sat beside Liu Shimei shamelessly.

Everyone looked at him and could not help but sigh in their hearts. Silly Second Prince was indeed Silly Second Prince. His skin was really thick!

Someone looked at Liu Shimei sympathetically. The proud daughter of heaven had such a fiance. No wonder she was also shameless and threw away everything she had.

No matter how dignified a person was, she could not maintain the face of a lady from a noble family when she met such a fool!

Huangfu Lingyao’s actions were an open provocation to the Crown Prince. Huangfu He’s forehead vein throbbed, but as the Crown Prince, he had to suppress his anger. He could not argue with a fool, that would be too embarrassing.

He said, “Since you want to sit there, be my guest.”

Then, he turned to the Chief Eunuch beside him and said, “Deal with the previous matter first, and then resume the banquet later.”

After all the commotion, it was already past noon.

“Bring in Miss Guan and Miss Jin!” the Chief Eunuch shouted.

Not only did they bring Guan Ruping, Jin Wei’er, and Huan’er, but they also brought their other maidservants.

Their faces were ashen and filled with despair. Her hair was also messy, and even a few of the hairpins on Guan Ruping’s bun had fallen off.

Jin Wei’er was trembling all over. She had been crying for a long time, and her eyes were swollen like a pair of peaches.

After they were brought in, they knelt in the middle of the hall and faced Huangfu He.

Upon seeing these people, Huangfu Lingyao’s anger flared up. Ignoring Liu Shimei’s pull, he suddenly stood up and said, “It’s you who harmed my wife!”

“Second Brother, sit down!” Huangfu He reprimanded with the dignity of a Crown Prince.

Would Huangfu Lingyao listen?

Of course not.

Only one person could control him!
