"How could I not recognize Her Highness the Third Princess?" Ning Yun bowed.
"We haven't seen each other for a long time. You and I are estranged. The last time we met, your attitude was not like this." Ji Yurou covered her lips and smiled softly, "You are getting more and more handsome. When the dinner is over, if you are interested Would you like to have a cup of tea in the garden?"
Ning Yun declined politely, "I'm afraid I'll be very busy tonight."
"What are you busy with?" Ji Yurou approached Ning Yun, "Want to act like a hero and help my sister catch the thief who covets the crown?"
"That's what I meant." Ning Yun said.
Ji Yurou pointed to the weak little princess: "She is more beautiful than me?"
Her smile widened, tinged with irritation.
"Both princesses are beautiful and beautiful." Ning Yun's words were flawless. "Who is more beautiful than the other? They just have their own characteristics."
"Then why did you help her?"
"It's not to help her, but to assist the royal family and catch the thieves who are trying to discredit Baidi Xing. Everyone here has a responsibility."
"Really?" Ji Yurou covered her mouth and chuckled, "You are much more interesting than before. Your clothes were made by Master Nian, right? Her craftsmanship is still as exquisite as before, just a little bit."
Ji Yurou raised her hand to hold Ning Yun's tie, gently untied it, and then tightened it again.
Her movements were slow, carrying her unique fragrance, like flirting, yet distant.
Others in the hall gave them strange looks.
Although Ji Yurou has always been bold and unrestrained, as a princess, being so favored by a representative of a family in public, even she went too far.
Some people saw it with envy, but only after seeing it with their own eyes did they realize that the little princess was not much better than Ji Yurou, and they also wanted to have the honor of the Third Princess tying the tie with her own hands.
But no matter how they looked at it, they were not qualified to point fingers at the third princess. Ji Yurou's actions remained the same. Ning Yun did not feel any malice and simply let her go.
"The tie is loose on purpose. I don't like it to feel too restrictive."
"This dress is suitable for wearing tightly." Ji Yurou let go after tying the tie and took two steps back to admire her results, "Well, this is good. I believe Master Nian also thinks this is much better."
"There are many guests today, and I can't just take care of you." She smiled sweetly at Ning Yun, "But for the appointment in the courtyard, I will only leave you alone. Whether you come or not is up to you."
With that said, she turned around, leaving only a beautiful silhouette.
Ning Yun didn't like social courtesy, so he hid in an unobtrusive corner and ate alone.
Huang Qiyan chased after him: "You haven't made it clear to me yet.
"Before I tell you everything, you should show your sincerity." Ning Yun took a bite of the dessert, "How about we exchange information and express our identities?"
Huang Qiyan's eyes were wandering, and he was quickly calculating the gains and losses in his heart.
"A glass of red wine, thank you."
Ning Yun waved to the nearby maid.
"Ah." The maid was stunned for a moment before realizing that Ning Yun was calling her, "Yes! I'll come right away!"
The maid poured a glass of wine, put it on the tray, picked it up carefully, and walked towards Ning Yun.
"Have you not thought about it yet?" Ning Yun said to Huang Qiyan before the maid approached, "You traveled the universe with the powerful, and this is all you got?"
Understanding Ning Yun's deeper meaning, Huang Qiyan raised his head in disbelief.
The maid was startled by the sudden change in the atmosphere between the two, and stayed where she was, not knowing whether to move forward.
Ning Yun said without looking back: "It's okay, just come over."
The maid swallowed her throat and approached cautiously.
Huang Qiyan remained silent and looked at Ning Yun critically.
Facing Ning Yun at close range, the maid's face turned red as she took the red wine on the tray.
"Please use."
Ning Yun's raised hand flashed before the maid's eyes, and her heartbeat accelerated.
This hand is so pretty!
The maid trembled unconsciously. The goblet on the tray became unstable and fell down. The red wine poured out and stained Ning Yun's clothes.
"I'm sorry! I'm so sorry!" The maid was so frightened that she almost cried. She quickly knelt down and took out her handkerchief to wipe Ning Yun's clothes.
Can such a maid be selected into the imperial palace to work at dinner parties?
Huang Qiyan also looked at the maid with scrutiny.
Fanying is cunning and can't let go of any abnormality.
"Not long after I was elected to the Imperial City, I could only do some ordinary chores." The maid sobbed, "A senior is temporarily unwell and asked me to help temporarily. It's the first time I've seen such a big scene. It's really too much." I got nervous and bumped into an adult...I, I don't know how to atone for my sin...
"It's nothing." Ning Yun held his forehead. He was most afraid of seeing a woman cry. "I'll take care of it and it will be cleared up. It's just a small matter."
The technology here is at least 2,000 years more advanced than on Earth. This stain will disappear in a few seconds after running the machine twice.
"There is a dressing room on the first floor. I will take you there!" The maid stood up in a hurry, not very smartly.
Ning Yun and the maid left the banquet hall, turned around in the main corridor, and came to the dressing room.
It is quiet and deserted here, as if it is not in the same time and space as the bustling banquet hall.
The maid found the relevant utensils and said, "Let me clean your clothes.
"Please." Ning Yun opened his arms.
In fact, the water element's superpower can deal with this stain, but the Imperial City has deployed related props that can suppress the superpower. Although that thing is ineffective against Ning Yun, he has to ensure that the original identity is not suspected.
The original person had the worst reputation among the nobles, both in terms of strength and character.
The maid leaned down, picked up the hand-held cleaning device, and cleaned Ning Yun's clothes.
She held her breath and stared at the red wine stains with her eyes, but she still couldn't help feeling nervous, and a slight sweat formed on her palms.
"Okay." The clothes were once again shiny and clean. The maid took a deep breath and stepped away respectfully, "Thank you for your tolerance."
The moment she spilled the red wine, she really thought she was finished.
"Just pay attention next time." Ning Yun left the locker room and saw Qi Ying standing near the locker room outside, obviously waiting for Ning Yun.
Ning Yun was not surprised, "I knew you would come."
"Have you ever given trouble to a maid who made a mistake?" Qi Ying asked with a straight face.
The maid who heard Qi Ying's words immediately wanted to go over and explain, but Ning Yun's next words stopped her in her tracks.
"What do I have to say to make you believe it? No matter what I say, you will always target me. You think I am still the same as I was a few years ago. In your heart, people will not change. Because the Ning family is powerful, You can do whatever you want, so I must be evil? You always regard yourself as the messenger of justice. No matter who is right or wrong, you will always favor the weak. Daystar is the most advanced place for starry education. You have been there for two years. , it is a miracle that there is no progress.”
"The maid soiled your clothes. I didn't come forward because you were capable enough to solve the problem." Qi Ying said sternly, "And you can decide her life or death at any time. You have indeed ruined her life for these insignificant things before. There are many people, remember? It's useless for you to block me in front of the door. If you hurt Xiaoying again, I will find a way to punish you."
"If you come back to guard my house like a resentful woman, I will ensure that you will be influenced by Daystar's advanced ideas for the next twenty years." Ning Yun smiled slowly, "I believe your parents think so too."
