The Regent's Concubine is Crazy

When Yun Youyou heard this, she looked downstairs again. Bei Yuanqi was standing on the corner of the street, looking around as if he was looking for something.

Shangguan Ziling's figure had disappeared from the window, leaving only a hazy gauze curtain swaying gently in the breeze.

She picked up the teacup in her hand and took a sip. The aroma of the tea spread in her mouth, but it failed to soothe the uneasiness in her heart.

Bei Yuanqi downstairs could not see Shangguan Ziling. His brows were furrowed and a sense of inexplicable irritation surged in his heart.

He turned around and said to the attendant beside him, "Let's go into this restaurant." His voice was filled with an unquestionable firmness. The attendant responded and followed Bei Yuanqi, and the two of them walked into the restaurant.

The restaurant was bustling with people, and Bei Yuanqi's eyes shuttled through the crowd, looking for that familiar figure.

However, Shangguan Ziling did not show up again. She sat quietly in the room, sipping tea, and didn't care at all about the man's behavior.

Yun Youyou said excitedly: "Zi Ling, you are getting married soon. I have to go to the jade shop to pick out a piece of exquisite jewelry for you as a token of my appreciation."

Her eyes were shining with excitement, as if she had foreseen Shangguan Ziling's joy when she wore the gift.

After hearing this, Shangguan Ziling smiled and shook her head, saying, "Youyou, it's really not necessary. My father has prepared a lot of jewelry in the dowry I gave him, and there are also many exquisite jewelry in the betrothal gifts Mo Shaoxie sent. I'm afraid I can't wear them all."

There was a hint of helplessness in her tone, as if she felt a little burdened by these overly generous gifts.

However, Yun Youyou refused to give up. She held Shangguan Ziling's hand and said firmly, "No matter what, what's yours is yours, and what I give you is what I give you. I must personally choose the most suitable gift for you."

Her eyes were full of persistence and determination, which made Shangguan Ziling unable to refuse.

Shangguan Ziling smiled helplessly when she saw this and said, "Okay." The two smiled at each other and walked out of the private room hand in hand.

Seeing this, the little fat man in the space couldn't help but sigh: "Your sister, she gave you a gift and asked you to accompany her to choose it in person? You really have a good relationship!"

Shangguan Ziling raised her eyebrows and felt a little warmth and sweetness in her heart.

As soon as the two went down the stairs, they arrived at the bustling hall.

Bei Yuanqi swept his eyes through the crowd and immediately locked onto Shangguan Ziling. His eyes lit up instantly, like the stars in the night sky, flashing bright and blazing light. He walked over quickly and blocked the two people's way.

Shangguan Ziling felt Bei Yuanqi's gaze. She frowned slightly and felt unhappy.

Bei Yuanqi was unaware of this and said, "Young lady, you look so familiar, like a relative of mine." There was an inexplicable sense of closeness in his tone, as if there was some special connection between the two of them.

Shangguan Ziling rolled her eyes and thought to herself: What a familiar routine. She did not directly answer Bei Yuanqi's question, but pulled Yun Youyou to the side.

Seeing this, Bei Yuanqi asked anxiously, "How old are you, young lady? What is your name and surname?" His tone revealed a sense of urgency and expectation, as if he wanted to know Shangguan Ziling's identity as soon as possible.

Shangguan Ziling stopped and looked back at Beiyuanqi in silence. Her eyes revealed a hint of sarcasm and disdain, as if to say: Your way of chatting up is too old-fashioned.

Bei Yuanqi felt a little embarrassed by Shangguan Ziling's gaze. He touched his nose and smiled sheepishly.

He knew that his way of chatting up people might be a bit outdated, but he still couldn't help but want to get close to Shangguan Ziling.

He took a deep breath, adjusted his emotions, and then spoke again: "Miss, my name is Bei Yuanqi, may I know your name?" His tone was sincere and genuine, as if he really wanted to know Shangguan Ziling's name.

Shangguan Ziling's heart was slightly moved when she heard this. She looked at Beiyuan Qi's sincere eyes and suddenly felt that this person was not annoying. She smiled slightly and said, "Shangguan Ziling." Her voice was crisp and sweet, like a silver bell.

Bei Yuanqi frowned and muttered softly: "Shangguan Ziling? Is your last name Shangguan?" He seemed to be recalling something, and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.

At this moment, a sharp voice broke the silence around them: "Shangguan Ziling, you are so shameless. You are about to marry the Regent, but you are still flirting with others outside?"

Shangguan Ziling looked over when she heard the voice, only to see Jun Wanting pointing at her angrily.

She was furious. Did the wound heal and she forgot the pain? Now she felt irritated when she saw the royal family members.

Princess Ya'an echoed from the side: "What's the matter, Miss Shangguan, are you feeling guilty?" Her words were full of sarcasm and provocation.

Shangguan Ziling couldn't help but think: I don't feel guilty at all. These two women don't try to make their existence felt all day long. Do they want to die?

Shangguan Ziling took a deep breath and calmed herself down, then looked at Jun Wanting and Princess Ya'an coldly and said, "I don't need to report to you who I'm dating or when I'm dating. If you dare to talk nonsense again, I'll tear your mouths apart."

Her tone was cold and firm, and no one dared to underestimate her.

Jun Wanting and Princess Ya'an were frightened by her aura and took a few steps back. They didn't expect Shangguan Ziling to be so tough.

The people around also began to talk. Shangguan Ziling's reputation had long been spread in the capital, and her methods and character were well known.

Jun Wanting's face turned red. She glared at Shangguan Ziling angrily and shouted through gritted teeth: "Shangguan Ziling, you are so bold!" Her voice was sharp and piercing, attracting the attention of passers-by around her.

Shangguan Ziling seemed not to hear it. She glanced at Jun Wanting lazily, with a disdainful smile on her lips.

She said calmly, "Fifth Princess, you should know how courageous I am."

Jun Wanting was angered by Shangguan Ziling's attitude. She said sternly: "Hmph, you are just a dog relying on the power of others. You are just relying on the regent. When the regent abandons you one day, this princess will take your life the first time." Her words were full of threats and provocations.

Shangguan Ziling's eyes turned cold instantly. She stared at Jun Wanting and said slowly: "The Fifth Princess is so arrogant. After all, I am the daughter of a court minister. How can you, a princess, say that you want to kill me? So this is the only thing a royal princess has. Are you so utterly insolent? Are you breaking the law?" Her tone revealed a deep sarcasm and disdain.

Jun Wanting was almost breathless due to Shangguan Ziling's momentum. She took a step back with a look of panic on her face.
