Oops, the princess is surrounded by the male protagonists

"Wait, Xiao 1, are you sure this boy is really over 18? Isn't the bottom line of our game that we absolutely don't touch minors? Can this principle just be abandoned?"

When Bai Yue heard that it was a captureable character, she was shocked and asked quickly.

"Dear player, please rest assured. This capture target is a master of the art of shrinking bones and disguising himself, so his current appearance is not his true appearance at all!"

"As a principled game, his true age is definitely a mature male protagonist that meets the requirements!"

There was a hint of pride in Xiao 1's answer, as if he was showing off the results of his careful selection.

"Shrinking his body and disguising himself? He sounds like someone with great martial arts skills. Why would such a person appear here? What is his purpose in hiding his identity?"

When Bai Yue heard what Xiao 1 said, she immediately asked vigilantly.

"Um, player, don't you care why the male protagonist's favorability towards you is -40?"

Xiao 1 said with a mixture of laughter and tears when he saw Bai Yue was so hostile to the new male lead.

"Okay, then why is his favorability towards me negative?"

Bai Yue asked Xiao 1 in a rare cooperative manner.

"Well, this is a secret. Before you see the true face of this man, everything about him is a secret!"

Xiao 1 said mysteriously.

"All players, please look forward to the moment of fate when you will meet his true face!"

Xiao 1 kept the question in suspense on purpose, his tone full of temptation.

"Haha, I actually hope that this encounter with this person is just this one time. It would be better for us to just be well and not bother each other in the future!"

Bai Yue instinctively felt that this male protagonist who was afraid to show his true face was probably not a good person, so she raised a faint smile at the corner of her mouth, and a subtle emotion flashed in her eyes as she looked at the mysterious boy and said.

"This young man is truly humorous. I am merely following ancient custom and adding a touch of spring to today's most beautiful woman. As for the word 'admiration', how can I even begin to speak of it?"

However, this explanation did not seem to completely dispel the boy's doubts. The expression on his face became more innocent and stubborn as he continued.

"But in our country of Wulie, a warrior pinning flowers on a beautiful woman has always been considered a subtle expression of proposal. If Your Highness has no such intention, there is no need to do it yourself, right?"

After saying that, he stared at Bai Yue with an almost childlike innocent look, as if trying to find the answer from every subtle expression of hers.

"Ah? There's such a thing?"

Bai Yue immediately felt like she had been tricked. She fixed her sharp eyes on the eunuch who was quietly curled up in a corner of the platform, as if she was looking for a definite answer.

"Yes, Your Highness, the peony is the flower of choice in our Wulie Kingdom for lifelong love, used exclusively for the romantic moment of proposal and engagement."

"It turns out there was a brave and unparalleled warrior who fell in love with the most beautiful woman in the country at first sight. The warrior gave the beauty a peony as a proposal, and the beauty agreed after the warrior put it on her hairpin!"

"That's when we started the custom of the most powerful warrior giving flowers to the most beautiful woman. The purpose was naturally to hope that good things would come in pairs, adding icing on the cake!"

The eunuch stood there and explained loudly for Bai Yue.

"But I'm already married..."

When Bai Yue heard this, a barely perceptible embarrassment flashed across her face.

"Don't worry, Your Highness. There's actually a rule: if the most beautiful woman declines the flower, the proposal will be discarded and will be null and void!"

Seeing this, the eunuch hurriedly comforted him.

When Bai Yue heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up. She quickly turned to look at Chu Xingyu, wanting him to return the flowers.

Before she could finish her words, the other party had a frosty face and said something coldly.

"You once said that you didn't want to talk to me anymore..."

After saying that, Chu Xingyu stretched out his body, like an eagle soaring into the sky, and jumped down directly from the high platform.

"No, young man, please leave the flowers for me..."

Seeing Chu Xingyu's figure gradually moving away, Bai Yue couldn't help but make up her mind and jumped down from the platform.

But she never expected that as soon as she landed, people would immediately surround her. The young masters from the noble families who had just said that they liked women's things were looking at Bai Yue with admiration on their faces.

"Your Highness, you truly are a celestial being that descended from heaven. Do you know how bright my world instantly became after you said those words?"

"That's great, you can live a good life from now on!"

"Yes, Your Highness, Crown Princess, if you don't abandon me, I am willing to be your concubine. Isn't it true that the royal family of your Baihua Kingdom can marry multiple husbands? From now on, I will serve you together with Crown Prince Chenyun!"

"Ah, Baihua still has this rule. The Crown Prince and I are a good match! You should find another good match!"

Seeing that more and more people were gathering around her, Bai Yue tapped her toes and instantly leaped out of the crowd. Then, as if she had encountered some ferocious beast, she instantly escaped from this delicate and slightly awkward place.

"Your Highness, I really can do it. You have to believe me!"

When the young masters from the aristocratic families saw that Bai Yue had escaped, they chased after him while shouting loudly.

When the other audience members saw the two protagonists escape, they turned into a group of talkative hummingbirds, scattered in all directions and whispered to each other.

At this moment, several shadowy figures dressed in servants' uniforms quietly gathered around the young man in gorgeous clothes, and the leading servant spoke respectfully.

"Sir, the buyers have sent me a letter via carrier pigeon. They want to kill Crown Princess Chenyun tonight!"

Upon hearing this, the young man's lips curled up into a playful smile, and his eyes instantly lost their previous innocence, replaced by an indescribable evil charm.

"Oh? It would be a pity to kill such a beautiful and charming woman so easily! You must capture her alive and bring her to me!"

"But sir, the buyer wants her to disappear forever..."

The leading servant said with some embarrassment.

"Don't worry, I will personally bring her back to the sect and make her an inescapable butterfly in my grasp, imprisoned in my world for the rest of her life."

The boy returned to his innocent expression and said with a smile.

"Sir, could it be..."

A hint of suspicion flashed in the leader's eyes, and he asked tentatively.

"Do you have special feelings for Crown Princess Chenyun?"

"Feelings? Haha, those royal bloodlines who think highly of themselves are nothing but disgusting ants in my eyes."

The boy's laughter was hearty, but it contained a biting chill.

"I just want to tame her and make her my exclusive plaything. When I get tired of her, she'll naturally find a place to go."

After saying this, he turned and left, his back revealing an unquestionable determination and coldness.
