Peerless Heiress - Chapter 42
Mo Yu walked past me, leaving behind a soft laugh: "Wait for me in the backyard."
What are you waiting for me to do?
I rolled my eyes and strode out the door.
Little Mud followed behind with a grin.
"Your Highness's carriage, make way immediately! Make way!"
As soon as I stepped onto the street, I heard a commotion behind me, with the sounds of gunfire and shouts filling the air.
The sound of the horses galloping was so powerful that the crowd quickly split into two lines, making way for the middle.
Crown Prince?
By the way, it seems the Crown Prince didn't come to pick up the bride himself yesterday; it was Mo Yu who did. What's the Crown Prince of Tianxing like? Why is he so mysterious?
I stood curiously to the side, watching the convoy gradually approach.
The bright yellow color, the tassels swaying in front of the carriage, the curtains dancing gently in the wind, the figures inside the carriage indistinct, approaching from afar and then receding again.
Suddenly, I had a strange feeling, as if a beam of light was shining directly on me from inside the car, cold and icy. For a fleeting moment, a murderous intent flashed through my mind.
When I tried to sense it again, it had disappeared.
I suddenly felt a pang of anxiety. I had a strong, very dangerous intuition.
"Brother, come quick! This is so pretty! It's the best for you!" Little Ni shouted from across the street, her glassy eyes sparkling in the sunlight. Having washed her face and put on her beautiful clothes, Little Ni was incredibly cute.
I looked at the rag doll he was holding and chuckled.
You want me to buy it for you, right?
Are you kidding me? I'm this old, would I be the kind of person who plays with plush toys?
Little Mud giggled, her smile as pure as the air.
None of us noticed that several figures dressed in black had quietly followed us.
A hand took the clay doll from my hand, and the sunlight cast a shadow over it, creating a moment of darkness.
I looked up and saw the maple leaf-shaped silver mask, and the half-smile on the lips beneath it.
"It's you?"
Wasn't he listening to singing and dancing at Zhongfang Garden with Mo Yu and that prince from Tianxing Kingdom? How did he run out so quickly?
Cheng Jue smiled slightly: "You're having a great time, don't you miss me?"
What...what?
My eyes lit up instantly, and I stared intently at him.
Cheng Jue smiled slightly and reached out to remove her mask.
A face with distinct features, deep-set eyes, and a faintly melancholic gaze.
The brilliance of time and space flashed before my eyes, and the ripples of Yanglan Lake in another time and space shimmered before me. Suddenly, a man wearing sunglasses appeared with a sorrowful gaze, and his meaningful words rang in my ears once more: "You will regret this."
You'll regret it.
You'll regret it ﹏﹏
Regretful﹏﹏
—Is this the answer?
I suddenly burst into laughter, laughing so hard that tears were streaming down my face.
Just because I stole his prize ticket that day, he threw me into another dimension and shut down the spacetime barrier, preventing me from returning. Is this his revenge? He wants me to regret it just because of this?
How ridiculous. He's definitely a spoiled scion of a powerful family. But the fact that he's a Grand Marshal, second only to the Emperor in this timeline, is quite unexpected. Did his soul transmigrate and possess him? He certainly knows how to choose, finding himself such a privileged family background.
Cheng Jue's face darkened: "What are you laughing at?"
Chapter 98 Broken
"You're not allowed to bully my brother!" Xiao Ni stood in front of me, her small body held high, glaring fiercely at Cheng Mo: "My brother is mine."
"Little Mud﹏" I laughed so hard I couldn't speak.
Cheng Jue glanced coldly at Xiao Ni and ignored him.
"Cheng Jue, what are you doing? Haven't you had enough? If you want to time travel, go ahead and do it yourself, don't drag me into it. I don't think it's a big deal that I stole your prize ticket. By the way, why did you dump me here? Was it because I hurt your pride? Or was it because I ridiculously didn't go along with you? Fine, fine, I don't want to know. Open the spacetime barrier, and since I'm having some fun here, I'll let it go."
Cheng Jue looked at me inscrutable, then suddenly said in a sinister tone, "You really don't care about me at all."
“That’s right,” I said casually.
Does he even care about you? Is it really necessary? Just because you're handsome doesn't make you special.
Xiao Ni hugged my arm and turned around to make a face at him.
"Have you fallen for Mo Yu? Otherwise, why would you become his close attendant?" Cheng Mo asked angrily.
"What's it to you? I can like whoever I want, but I'll never like you. If you threw me here just to make me like you, then you've made a huge mistake. Let me tell you, I, Lin Qingyan, hate being threatened the most. The more you threaten me, the less I'll do it." I was furious too.
