Chapter 301: The Humble Crown Prince Luo
The Lin Family servants preparing to move the items stared at Hei Sha in bewilderment, not understanding why he was stopping them. Could it be that these gifts were not meant for Lin Xueyan?
Lin Zhishang's smile froze, then he laughed and asked, "Whatever business you have can be discussed later. With so many gifts, leaving them here is inappropriate. I'll have the servants move them back to the manor first."
Hei Sha lifted his eyebrows, "Move them back to the manor?"
Lin Zhishang nodded, "Exactly. Our Yan child currently lives in the Lin manor, so the gifts should be moved there. When she later marries into Zhu Lu Zhi Dian, the Crown Prince's gifts will become her dowry, and the Lin Family will not keep anything for ourselves."
Upon hearing Lin Zhishang say that Lin Xueyan will later marry into Zhu Lu Zhi Dian, envy flickered in everyone's eyes.
Zhu Lu Zhi Dian!
That's a top‑tier power of the Xi Ji Shengyu!
It is said that the Emperor Sovereign is young and handsome, his power reaches the heavens, and he is the object of countless women's romantic fantasies in the Xi Ji Shengyu!
What terrible luck did Lin Xueyan have to be noticed by that top‑tier big shot?
Feeling the scorching gazes of the crowd, Lin Xueyan lifted her chin again, her face showing no extra expression as if she were already accustomed to it. In truth, her heart was already surging.
Yes, she, Lin Xueyan, will marry into Zhu Lu Zhi Dian in the future!
She will spread this news throughout the Central Region so everyone knows!
Hei Sha listened to Lin Zhishang's words, smiled, "Head of the Lin Family, did you make a mistake?"
A sudden ominous premonition rose in Lin Zhishang's heart.
Could it be that these gifts are not for Lin Xueyan?
"No, impossible!"
He immediately dismissed the speculation, looked at Hei Sha with a puzzled expression, "A mistake? What do you mean?"
"I told you, I am on the Crown Prince's orders, coming to Xiliang City to deliver gifts. The recipient is the most dazzling woman in Xiliang City."
Lin Zhishang nodded absentmindedly, "I know that. But isn't the most dazzling woman in Xiliang City exactly our family's lady, Lin Xueyan? No mistake."
Not only was Lin Zhishang bewildered, but the onlookers were as well.
In Xiliang City, is there any woman more dazzling than Lin Xueyan?
Hei Sha continued, "The most dazzling woman in Xiliang City, in your eyes, is Lin Xueyan?"
Lin Xuewei frowned in displeasure, her tone unkind, "Otherwise? Is there any woman in Xiliang City more dazzling than my sister?" After asking, her gaze flicked to Ye Qingran, and she sneered, "If not my sister, could it be Ye Qingran?"
As she finished, the mocking expression on her face deepened.
She firmly believed that, even if we step back ten thousand steps, the Crown Prince Luo's gifts could not possibly be intended for Ye Qingran, even if not for her sister.
Lin Xuewei's remark provoked a burst of mocking laughter from many.
Even though Ye Qingran has long shed her former reputation as a waste, her fame still cannot match that of Lin Xueyan, who returned from Zhu Lu Zhi Dian.
Lin Xueyan has actually spent five years in Zhu Lu Zhi Dian!
Lin Xueyan now remains composed. She is absolutely certain in her heart that she herself is the most dazzling woman in Xiliang City. No one can outshine her.
Hei Sha shook his head, "I won't play a guessing game with everyone. I'll say it outright: the most dazzling woman mentioned by our Crown Prince is…"
Lin Xueyan stood even more upright, chin raised, looking just like an arrogant peacock.
A perfectly timed smile rose on her face, dignified and appropriate, like a queen.
Who else could the Crown Prince Luo's gifts be for? Naturally, it's her, Lin Xueyan!
She is waiting for Hei Sha's announcement.
Awaiting the moment she has long anticipated!
"It's Ye Qingran!"
What?
The instant Hei Sha finished speaking, question marks filled everyone's hearts.
Did they just mishear? The Crown Prince's subordinate said the most dazzling woman in Xiliang City is Ye Qingran?
When she heard the name Ye Qingran, the smile on Lin Xueyan's face cracked inch by inch.
What did she hear?
Ye Qingran?
"No, that's impossible! How could that be? Crown Prince Luo doesn't even know Ye Qingran; how could he arbitrarily send her gifts? Did you make a mistake?"
Lin Xueyan widened her eyes, her expression highly agitated, no longer able to maintain her previous composure.
She, no matter what, refuses to believe that Crown Prince Luo's gifts are for Ye Qingran, the scum!
She will not agree!
Lin Zhishang's people were stunned, "Did you make a mistake? The most dazzling woman in Xiliang City can only be our sister Yan, how could it be Ye Qingran?"
Lin Xuewei even pointed at Hei Sha, bluntly demanding, "Clearly this gift was sent by the Crown Prince to my sister! It must be your unauthorized decision! It was Ye Qingran, that Fox Spirit, who lured you, betrayed her body, that's why you say it's for Ye Qingran, right? You disloyal subordinate, and you, Ye Qingran, you shameless scum! I will report this to the Crown Prince and have him issue a decree to have you torn apart!"
Hei Sha coldly laughed, "You can send someone now to the Xuan Yuan Wang Chao to expose me; I'll stay in Xiliang City the whole time, waiting for the Crown Prince's decree to have me torn apart!"
When those words were spoken, who didn't believe Hei Sha was telling the truth?
The gifts sent by Crown Prince Luo were not for Lin Xueyan after all, but for Ye Qingran?
Lin Xueyan still refused to believe it, questioning again, "Ye Qingran could not possibly know Crown Prince Luo; how could these gifts be for Ye Qingran?"
Lin Xueyan's question voiced everyone's curiosity; they also wanted to know how Ye Qingran could be linked to the Crown Prince of the Xuan Yuan Wang Chao.
Hei Sha stared coldly at Lin Xueyan, saying word for word, "How my Crown Prince knows Miss Ye is not something Miss Lin Da Xiaojie needs to worry about."
Lin Xueyan's eyes erupted in flames.
Damn it, a lowly subordinate dares to be so disrespectful to her?
When she later gets on good terms with Crown Prince Luo, she will never let this person off!
Hei Sha said, flashing a smile at Ye Qingran, his tone now a bit more respectful, "Miss Ye, my Crown Prince said he's been too busy lately; when he has time, he'll definitely come to Xiliang City to see you! Please don't be angry or blame him. These gifts are a trifle; we hope you'll accept them. When he comes next time in person, he'll bring even more and better gifts."
Everyone: "……"
Pairs of eyes stared at Hei Sha, their gazes frozen.
Did that legendary Crown Prince really say these words?
How does it feel that the Crown Prince is so humble?
