Qiao Tian Chang calmly looked at the two talking. There was a flash of joy in his eyes.
”Tian Chang, you better control your wife properly, she only knows how to bully me,” After a short while, Xiao Qi Tian sadly said with a depressed expression as he looked at Qiao Tian Chang.
Qiao Tian Chang looked at Xiao Qi Tian with astonishment: “Then, you just be a good boy and get bullied, I don’t mind.”
Xiao Qi Tian almost spat out a mouthful of blood: “But I mind.”
”Then you can choose not to speak.”
Xiao Qi Tian pointed at the couple with his trembling fingers. The corners of his mouth were constantly twitching and he quietly turned his head. It was best if he stayed as far away as possible from the wicked couple, it would save him from being completely abused.
Ning Meng Yao looked at Xiao Qi Tian and helplessly shook her head: “I wonder how you manage to have such a big business with such little eloquence.”
Xiao Qi Tian choked and was unable to retort. He only opened his mouth after a long while: “I’m gifted, I’m only like this when I encounter you wicked couple, alright?”
Ning Meng Yao raised her eyebrows and looked at Xiao Qi Tian: “You shouldn’t blame others for your incompetence.”
Xiao Qi Tian looked at Ning Meng Yao. He was really going to keep his mouth shut this time and stopped talking to that woman.
Just when Ning Meng Yao gave up on talking, an announcement could be heard from outside: “The Prince and Princess of Ling Empire have arrived.”
”The Prince of Feng Empire has arrived.”
”The Third Prince of Hai Empire has arrived.”
The continuous voices caused the elites of Xiao Empire to shift their gaze to the entrance of the Imperial Garden. Nangong Che and his sister were walking in front, and behind them was the Prince of Feng Empire. Ning Meng Yao couldn’t help but furrowed her brows when she saw the Prince of Feng Empire. She found him to be familiar.
But after observing the other party, she realized she really didn’t know that person.
But his temperament had caused her to think of someone.
Qiao Tian Chang, seeing Neng Meng Yao staring at the Prince of Feng Empire, shifted his gaze to look at Feng Empire’s Prince. He was a really gentle person and there was a warm smile on his face, but his eyes were filled with coldness and alienation.
”What’s wrong?”
Ning Meng Yao shook her head: “This Feng Empire is like someone I know, their temperaments are the same, but they look completely different.”
”That’s how it is, the Prince of Feng Empire is the most mysterious person among the crowd, even the people in Feng Empire does not truly know him. It’s said that those who know are already dead,” Qiao Tian Chang said as he looked at the Prince of Feng Empire while lost in thought.
Ning Meng Yao agreed, of course, she knew: “Forget it, we don’t know each other anyway,” She then lowered her head.
The Prince of Feng Empire, Feng Shuo, suddenly turned his head and looked to her the moment she lowered her head. There was a sudden flash of a sincere smile from his gently yet alienating eyes.
But he furrowed his brows tightly when he saw Qiao Tian Chang. The smile on his face gradually sank.
”Nangong Che (Nangong Yue) greets the Emperor Xiao.”
”Ling Empire’s Prince and Princess does not need to be so polite,” There was a smile on Xiao Qi Feng’s face, but there was a serene smile in his eyes.
”Feng Shuo greets Emperor Xiao,” Feng Shuo bowed.
”Feng Empire’s Prince is too polite, please have a seat.”
”Thank you, Emperor Xiao,” Feng Shuo walked to his seat. His seat was coincidentally opposite from Ning Meng Yao and Qiao Tian Chang.
The gaze from the opposite side caused Ning Meng Yao to frown. She unconsciously lifted her head but there wasn’t anything to see other than doubts.
”Everything’s fine,” Qiao Tian Chang reached out his hand and squeezed her hand as he tried to appease her.
Ning Meng Yao acknowledged and smiled.
”Let the banquet begins,” Xiao Qi Feng shot a glance at the person beside him, and that person immediately understood after a nod. He lifted his head and said to the crowd.
The banquet began, there were singers and dancers in the field. Not long after, it was the session for all the daughters of each distinguished family to perform.
When it was Wei Zi Xin’s turn, she played a tune. It was nice and it caused Wei Ke Xin’s expression to change as her gaze landed on Wei Zi Xin.
She knew about Wei Zi Xin’s abilities, but now…… Wei Ke Xin finally understood that Wei Zi Xin had been keeping it a secret. Her zither skills were no weaker than hers.
Wei Zi Xin on the stage was feeling delighted when she saw the change in Wei Ke Xin’s expression, but she did not wish to find trouble with her now. She then turned her head to look at Ning Meng Yao: “I wonder if the wife of the Great General is willing to compete with me?”
