A demon in red clothes walked out from the crowd, followed by a group of palace guards.

This guy, doesn't he always keep to himself? Why is he so particular about the show this time?

"Prince Shen, you brought so many people with you, are you here to challenge us?" Yang Qianqian looked at him with a smile, "I wonder what our shop has done to offend you, Your Majesty?"

"What does your sign mean?" Yuwen Duo frowned and squinted his eyes. "Why can't the king and the dog enter? Are the king and the dog the same?"

Jue Yang Qianqian looked aggrieved: "Your Highness, you must have read it wrongly. Your name is not written on it. What I am talking about is a demon. I put this red paper to ward off evil spirits. What does it have to do with Your Highness?"

"Don't you usually call me a monster? Why are you saying no now?" Yuwen Duo gritted his teeth, wishing he could tear the woman in front of him to pieces.

Are they born to be mortal enemies?

"But I never said that the monster I was talking about could only be you, and I also never said that the monster on the paper refers to you, Your Majesty?" When it comes to quibbling, Yang Qianqian is second. Who dares to claim to be first?

This sentence really choked Yuwen Duo to the point where he was speechless. If someone called him a monster, he would just admit it?

"Your Majesty, you brought so many people here, are you trying to bully us?" Yang Qianqian asked loudly, "Your Majesty, you don't even let ordinary people like us do business?"

There was a sudden commotion in the crowd. Yuwen Duo's eyes looked as if he wanted to kill her. His fists were clenched so hard that they made a clattering sound, and his face was ashen.

Unfortunately, his appearance could scare others but not Yang Qianqian.

For some reason, this Prince Shen, who was feared by many people in the legend, had no deterrent power in front of her. She just couldn't be afraid of him at all from the bottom of her heart.

I don’t know whether it is her tragedy or Yuwen Duo’s tragedy.

"I want to buy something. Don't you allow guests to come into your store?" Yuwen Duo raised his foot and walked into the store.

"I'm sorry, we don't serve you!" Yang Qianqian blocked with her hand, "Your Majesty, please go back!"

"Hmph, in this world, apart from the Imperial Palace, there are few places that I cannot enter, but I will go in!" Yuwen Duo also became angry, and rushed in regardless of anything. "If you want to prove that the monster at the door is not me, then let me in!"

Yang Qianqian smiled and said, "I'll let you in. That red paper is useless. You have to use this!" Then she walked to the counter and took out a bright yellow boot. "Do you recognize this?"

Yuwen Duo frowned: "How come Ji Baixiao's combat boots are in your hands?"

"What do you think?" Yang Qianqian raised her eyebrows and suddenly raised her boots. "You see the gift from the emperor, but you still don't kneel down, Yuwen Duo, do you dare to despise the king?"

“You…” Yuwen Duo stared at him. A large group of people behind him knelt on the ground. He could only stare blankly. He knelt down reluctantly and followed everyone in shouting, “Long live the emperor!”

"General Ji said that with these boots, I can kick anyone I want. Prince Shen, I won't kick you, but if you don't leave, I might really consider his suggestion!" Yang Qianqian held the boots in her hands with a sly smile on her face.

Yuwen Duo closed his eyes and stood up: "Did Ji Baixiao really give it to you?"

Yang Qianqian raised an eyebrow: "Otherwise, would I dare to steal?"

"Why would he give it to you?"

Yang Qianqian sighed: "There's nothing I can do. He's related to your family. Some things are hard to refuse..."

Yuwen Duo looked at her and his face gradually darkened. He was not angry, nor was he sullen. Instead, it was a deep sadness that slowly flowed out from his eyes and spread throughout his body.

Obviously, he understood whose idea it was.

The heavy atmosphere of sorrow was somewhat oppressive and suffocating. For some reason, Yang Qianqian's heart suddenly felt violently whipped, as if someone had whipped her heart, causing a crack to appear immediately.

"I understand. I will never come here again!" His voice was cold and distant, and his tone was like a farewell, which made people feel sad.

Yang Qianqian stretched out her hand, wanting to hold him, but she saw that he had already turned around, leaving him with a lonely back.

Outside the house, it started to drizzle at some point, and the continuous autumn rain dragged out his shadow, which seemed to have been engraved into his heart bit by bit since time immemorial, causing bubbles and rotting to the bone marrow, never to be healed.

It is a kind of poison. The rotten flesh must be cut out bit by bit with a knife. No anesthetic can be used.

The pleasure that should have come from revenge was suppressed by a strong sense of sorrow. Combined with the continuous drizzle and the glaring red color, it was like a wound bursting with blood, causing numbness due to the pain.

The crowd slowly dispersed, leaving Yang Qianqian standing there stupidly holding her boots, staring blankly at the red color that was becoming increasingly blurred in the rain, and suddenly she became a little doubtful.

Is her decision right?

Did she really deserve to hurt him this much?

The hurt from his mother and the betrayal from his cousin who used to be like a friend to him, all of them were plotting against him, so that's why he is so sad, right?

But, his sadness was his own business, so why did she feel the same way and feel sad?

"This damn weather!" Unable to hold back, she cursed, "Lu'er, tear off the red paper outside!"

For a moment, I felt a little bored.

Sitting lazily on the chair behind the counter, I suddenly thought of Xiao Zhiyuan.

He planned such a big revenge case. I wonder if he felt the same as I did?

I am not happy, nor do I feel satisfied. I am just lonely and sad. I feel like I have no energy at all. The word "revenge" is not a good thing.

Suddenly I wanted to go see him.

"Ruyue, please accompany me back to Nangong Mansion. I'm going to get something!"

She lived in Nangong Mansion for some time ago, so she brought some clothes there. Now, the Nangong family's property has been officially handed over to Xiao Zhiyuan, and she doesn't want to take care of it for the rest of the time.

so tired...

"Okay, I'll be right there!" Ruyue responded, but she heard Lu'er say, "Miss, let me get it for you, don't let me bump into you and make you embarrassed!"

Yang Qianqian knew what she meant and smiled, "Some things have to be faced. You can't hide from them forever. It's better to make things clear to avoid trouble in the future."
