Chapter 449

This place could be considered the area with the most coral reefs, filled with embellishments of seashells and pearls.

Cyan-blue plants swayed with the breeze, and combined with the water vapor and mist from the waterfall, it was set off as if it were a fairyland.

Looking out, the outer beach was several miles wide, and the surroundings were completely deserted.

However, if one looked closely, they would discover a few figures wandering in the pool beneath the waterfall.

When Yae Miko approached, suddenly a sharp water arrow shot out from the crystal-clear pool surface.

Its force was astonishing; if one hadn't been paying attention, they might have suffered a small loss.

Miko was seen pausing her steps with unusual composure, slightly turning her body to dodge the water arrow, and then looking toward the direction of the pool.

"Miko, you've come just in time. Come on down; we are playing a game."

As far as the eye could see, Mikoshi Chiyo was dressed only in light gauze, drifting back and forth in the icy waterfall like a swimming fish, and upon seeing her arrive, she couldn't help but extend an invitation.

"That's right, Lady Guuji Yae. There are exactly three of us; you've come just in time to make it a full set." The one echoing this was Sangonomiya Kokomi.

Yae Miko stared at Kokomi with a half-smile and refused: "I still have matters to report to His Highness, so there is no need. I hope Lady Chiyo has a good time."

The one who had just ambushed her with the water arrow was Kokomi, and although it was an ambush, the control of the force was excellent.

It was definitely not enough to injure her, but a bit of embarrassment was unavoidable.

Mikoshi Chiyo had no choice but to give up and called out: "Then come over later!"

"Yes."

Under Kokomi's pouting gaze, Miko arrived at the only lounge chair above the outer beach with a provocative smile.

There, Hearing Luo Li, having shed his dark green formal robes, rarely displayed a cool side.

He was shirtless, wearing only a pair of shorts to cover his lower body, holding a book and reading; if he had a parasol and sunglasses, he would look exactly like a modern person at the beach.

"His Highness Hearing Luo Li is truly in high spirits, admiring several beautiful young girls playing in the water while reading a novel yourself."

The stinging words made Hearing Luo Li put down the book in his hand and slightly turn to look at Miko.

"You've come a bit late compared to last time. Did you run into something?"

"Nothing, it's just that Her Ladyship the Matriarch pulled me aside to say a few extra words."

She spoke the truth, though Miko did not mention the specific content.

"I see. Come over and sit down. What good news do you have this time?"

Seeing Hearing Luo Li sit up slightly to make some room, Miko didn't mind and came to the side of his chair, sitting down with her legs crossed.

After silently apologizing to him in her heart, she began to answer.

"According to Your Highness's words from last time, I have already informed the General. The General was stunned at the time and looked very moved; although her expression didn't change much, but..."

As if she had experienced it herself, Miko didn't even blink when telling lies.

She vividly described how Raiden Makoto was moved, and the wavering expression seemed to be right before her eyes.

Yae Miko even deceived herself, and a trace of compassion flashed faintly in her eyes.

Sure enough, a true actor must enter the role themselves, otherwise how can they deceive others?

Although Hearing Luo Li felt a bit uneasy, Miko's superb acting completely deceived him.

"Are you sure Makoto had no other changes?"

Miko hesitated for a moment and said slowly: "Perhaps there was still some resentment, but I think it should be within a controllable range. As long as Your Highness says a few soft words at that time and offers an apology, it should be fine."

Hearing Luo Li began to ponder, combining the news Miko had brought earlier to start analyzing Raiden Makoto's psychology.
