Chapter 42.1 : I’m Very Timid
The reasons behind that was known only to insiders in the palace and it was not known by others.
All in all, the Water Edge Kingdom’s visit this time was definitely not friendly.
Although the Duke of Vast Seas was infamous for his notoriety, but there were still quite a number of hot blooded youths that worshiped him, with Qing Bei no exception from it.
Besides Big Brother Yan Xi Cheng, the person he admired the most was the Duke of Vast Seas. Hence, after he came to know that the delegation had come to the capital, he had specially sneaked a trip outside to go have a look.
Although he did not manage to see him in person, he was already very satisfied. He was just intending to sneak back into his room when he heard a voice filled with mirth. "Gone out so early in the morning? Where did you go?"
Qing Bei’s face froze up, and he then slowly turned around. "Sis, morning."
Qing Yu arched up an eyebrow as she looked at the sun that had risen high up in the sky. "The sun has risen up almost to the top and you say its still morning? Stop trying to pull wool over my eyes. What did you go out for?"
"I just..... wanted to see the Duke of Vast Seas." Qing Bei knew the game was up for him, and he just told her the truth.
It was only then that Qing Yu remembered it, and she then asked with a smile: "You managed to see him?"
The young lad shook his head forlornly. "No. He was seated inside a palanquin."
Qing Yu smiled and ruffled the young lad’s head. "Don’t give up, you’ll meet him someday."
"Sis, I heard that Father favours you very much recently?"
Asking that so suddenly out of the blue, Qing Yu was taken aback. She then raised up an eyebrow. "What? You’re jealous?"
"Why would I?" Qing Bei could not help but smile and shake his head. "I only meant to say since Father favours you so highly now, he will definitely bring you with him to attend the banquet in the palace this time."
"I can’t even be bothered to go to such places." Qing Yu curled her lips up in a disdainful sneer. "The banquet at the palace is merely an attempt to establish good ties between the two kingdoms, and only to cement their position further. Isn’t it said that they had even sent a princess here for matchmaking? When the Water Edge Kingdom has such a powerful Duke of Vast Seas, will they still need to consolidate their territories through matchmaking? I do not think so. Hence, they are here purely only to pick a quarrel, and such banquets are the most boring of all."
Qing Bei stared speechlessly at the calm demeanor of his own sister, his heart filling up with utmost admiration and respect for her.
This sister of his was anything but ordinary indeed. Those words were not something any normal girl would be able to utter, and she had actually shown absolutely no interest in a man like the Duke of Vast Seas who had so many countless ladies hopelessly smitten and head over heels in love!
Really wonder what kind of a man would then be able to catch her eye.
Qing Bei suddenly started to worry about his currently still non existent future brother in law who would still be hiding in some unknown nook or cranny.
And at that same moment, situated in the north of Cloud Heaven, within a mysterious and surrept.i.tious high black tower, a man suddenly sneezed for no reason at all.
The pair of violet eyes then showed a rare moment of bewilderment.
It was midsummer, the weather was clear and fine, without a cloud for a thousand miles and the air was even slightly scorching. He couldn’t possibly have caught a cold.....
What kind of a joke was this? Having lived for several hundred years and he had not even suffered much in the way of an injury, not mention falling ill.
That would then mean someone was thinking of him.
The handsome thin lips lifted up slightly at the ends, and it was not known what was on his mind, as the man’s mood then became exceptionally bright and radiant in tandem with the depth of the arc on his mouth.
[Why..... have I suddenly come to miss that little fox?]
[Mm, not only those eyes were enticing like a fox’s but everything about her was alluring.]
Although he had not really seen it that time, but the great body under those loose clothes was something he had truly felt, which was so d.a.m.ningly soft.
That a Dark Lord who had always done as he pleased with wild abandon in Cloud Heaven for several hundred years would one day come to miss a little la.s.s from a low leveled land was absolutely shocking to hear.
