Oops, the princess is surrounded by the male protagonists
Chapter 9 Fortunately, my innocence was preserved
Upon hearing this, Bai Yue looked down at his arms. The muscle lines were particularly obvious in the sunlight.
"The increased exercise this week is indeed effective!"
She nodded with satisfaction, then raised her head and smiled at Mo Xuanche.
"Your Majesty, thank you for the compliment! But then again, you do have a pretty good figure."
Mo Xuanche was stunned by Bai Yue's words. He thought that the other party would blush when facing his teasing, but he didn't expect that he was the one being teased by the other party.
"Hmph, interesting!"
He looked at Bai Yue with an evil smile, then rushed towards her like a cheetah.
"In that case, I will be frank with Miss Bai, how about that?"
"Congratulations, player! Mo Xuanche's favorability has soared by 3 points. Please keep up the good work!"
Xiao 1 teased mischievously, as if he were a spectator in the game world.
"What are you congratulating me for? Where's that Qinggong book I won? Give it to me quickly! I need it to get rid of this troublesome guy!"
Bai Yue said to Xiao 1 in her mind while running away.
"Dear player, you must know that Rome wasn't built in a day, and neither was Qinggong achieved overnight."
"So, perhaps you should consider giving up your struggle and accepting Mo Xuanche's powerful embrace!"
Xiao 1's voice was full of malicious intent.
Faced with this unreliable system, Bai Yue knew that it was hopeless to rely on it, so she could only try her best to sprint forward, trying to break free from Mo Xuanche's entanglement.
"That's enough, the game ends here."
Mo Xuanche tapped the ground with his toes and landed in front of Bai Yue as lightly as a dragonfly skimming the water.
He gently pulled Bai Yue into his arms, and the two of them were face to face in an instant.
He stared down at her, his fingers gently stroking her cheek as he spoke softly.
"I just realized today that Miss Bai really makes my heart flutter."
"Heartbeat? I think you have inner demons at work!"
Bai Yue was about to bend her knees and perform the Three Wolf Defenses when she heard an old female voice sound beside them.
"I pay my respects to Your Majesty. Your presence truly brings honor to the Duke of Qi's residence!"
"Huh, what a coincidence that my aunt came!"
When Mo Xuanche saw Madam Lin, the corners of his mouth twitched, then he sighed and let go of Bai Yue in his arms.
"I am truly guilty of not noticing Your Majesty's arrival until now. If Your Majesty does not mind, please move to the main residence so that my entire family can pay their respects to you!"
Old Madam Lin smiled and continued to salute Mo Xuanche.
"No need. Today I am on a private visit in disguise and do not want to disturb others. It is getting late now, and I should return to the palace."
Mo Xuanche waved his hand and politely declined Madam Lin's proposal.
"In that case, I respectfully bid farewell to Your Majesty."
"From here to the palace gate, there will be absolutely no outsiders to disturb you along the way. Your Majesty can leave with peace of mind."
"Auntie is so considerate to me. However, please rest assured, auntie, no one in this Wulie Kingdom can hurt me in the slightest!"
Mo Xuanche clapped his hands lightly, as if summoning something, and then dozens of elite guards jumped out from the surrounding woods and surrounded Mo Xuanche silently.
"Miss Bai, I'm really sorry that I couldn't have a good chat with you today. If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely make it up to you!"
Mo Xuanche looked at Bai Yue and blinked gently. Although the other party maintained respect on his face, there was a hint of impatience in his tone.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty, but I really don't want to see you any longer. It's getting late, Your Majesty, please return to the palace early."
"…it is good."
This was the first time that Mo Xuanche was rejected so directly by a woman. Although he felt unwilling, he could do nothing about it.
He turned and walked towards the mansion gate, and the guards saw him and quickly followed him.
"Didn't I tell you to keep a low profile? Why did my aunt still notice something?"
Mo Xuanche's voice was like a frosty blade in winter, directed directly at the two slightly shivering maids behind him.
"Master, we were already very cautious, but when we tried to take Crown Princess Chenyun away, the young marquis tried his best to obstruct us."
"I'm afraid that Madam Lin will find out about this, and the young marquis is also involved..."
The voices of the two maids gradually became lower. After all, the Chu Xingyu they mentioned was not only Mo Xuanche's cousin, but also the beloved son of the current eldest princess, with an extraordinary noble status.
"Xingyu? Isn't that guy particularly fond of Prime Minister Su's daughter and avoiding Crown Princess Chenyun as much as possible?"
Mo Xuanche was a little surprised when he heard that it was Chu Xingyu who intervened in this matter.
"We servants don't quite understand, but the young marquis did strongly request to meet His Majesty together with Crown Princess Chenyun..."
The maids' voices became increasingly subtle, for fear of touching upon some taboo.
"How dare this brat destroy my plan so blatantly!"
Mo Xuanche was burning with rage and was about to explode when suddenly a gust of wind blew and papers fell from the sky like snowflakes.
"Escort!"
The guards around Mo Xuanche became alert instantly and took a defensive stance.
At this time, a gentle girl hurried over, with a look of apology and embarrassment on her face.
"I'm so sorry, I accidentally scattered the pages of my book and bumped into this gentleman. I really shouldn't have done that!"
Mo Xuanche's gaze lightly swept over the girl. Although she had a stunning face, there were too many beauties like her within the palace walls, so to him, they were already commonplace.
He simply nodded slightly and continued on his way, while the maids beside him whispered reports.
"Master, this is Prime Minister Su's beloved daughter, Miss Su Mengqi."
"Oh? She... is the young lady from the Su family that Xingyu has been thinking about?"
Mo Xuanche suddenly paused, then turned around abruptly, his eyes focused on Su Mengqi again.
He walked to the other side, gently picked up a piece of paper that had fallen on the ground, and handed it to Su Mengqi with a gentle smile on his face.
"My lady, you are too modest. It is my great fortune to meet a beautiful woman like you here."
"Thank you, Madam Lin, for rescuing me. Bai Yue is very grateful!"
At this time, Bai Yue bowed deeply to Madam Lin with sincere respect on her face.
"If you hadn't shown up in time, I'm afraid..."
Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Lin advised with worry in her eyes.
"Your Highness, my nephew has indeed behaved improperly, doing such a despicable thing to a married woman."
"While a woman's reputation is certainly important, her life is priceless. Therefore, Your Highness, you must not let this lead you to commit suicide!"
"Ah, what I mean is, I'm afraid I'll find every way to beat him up!"
Bai Yue didn't expect the other party to misunderstand her words. Just as she was about to explain, she was startled by the old lady who suddenly bowed deeply to her.
"Madam, what are you doing?"
"Your Highness, Crown Princess, thank you for saving my grandson's life. I am eternally grateful!"
"I heard from Yuewei that my Ling'er was already dead when she was rescued."
"If it weren't for your immortal energy, Your Highness, the Crown Princess, how could he be brought back to life?"
At this point, Madam Lin was already sobbing. After all, Ling'er was the only bloodline of their Duke Qi Mansion. If anything really happened, it would undoubtedly be a devastating disaster for their Duke Qi Mansion.
"Xianqi, that old lady Lin, you may have some misunderstandings..."
"Mrs. Lin!"
Just as Bai Yue was about to speak to clarify, a call broke the delicate atmosphere.
Chu Xingyu came slowly from afar with his servants. He walked calmly, like an immortal in a painting.
"Madam Lin, the poetry gathering is over. I will take my leave now."
After Chu Xingyu bowed to Madam Lin, he seemed to suddenly see Bai Yue. He frowned slightly and said with a hint of dissatisfaction.
"Hey, how can you dress so shabbily in broad daylight? It's really disrespectful!"
As he spoke, he took a luxurious black fox fur cloak from the servant beside him, and with a casual wave of his hand, the cloak fell accurately on Bai Yue, perfectly wrapping her slightly messy figure.
"that…"
Bai Yue wanted to say something, but the other party just waved his hand in a casual and cool manner.
"I'm just lending you this cloak temporarily; it's definitely not a gift. So, forget about those words of gratitude!"
After Chu Xingyu said this, he hurried away with his servants, while Bai Yue smiled bitterly and muttered to herself in her heart.
"Brother, it's early summer now. Are you trying to give me a heat stroke by putting such a thick cape on me?"
"Your Highness, please don't be fooled by Xingyu's behavior just now. He might just be shy, so he's acting like this."
"To tell you the truth, if he hadn't come to tip me off, how would I have known that His Majesty had brought you here?
Old Madam Lin smiled and defended Chu Xingyu, fearing that Bai Yue would misunderstand him.
"Hey, Chu Xingyu, you're such a good friend!"
After hearing this, Bai Yue couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
"Your Highness, I have the audacity to invite you to return to the main residence with me. My entire family would like to personally thank you for saving my grandson's life!"
Madam Lin looked at Bai Yue with gratitude and said.
"Old Madam, you are truly too polite. In my opinion, saving people is just a natural act, and it is the right thing to do. Besides, it is getting late now, and I must return to accompany my prince as soon as possible to avoid worrying him."
Bai Yue shook her head and rejected Madam Lin's invitation.
"But…"
Madam Lin wanted to keep her, but Bai Yue interrupted her, winked playfully, and said with a smile.
"Old Madam, if you really want to express your gratitude, please generously give me some of those delicious snacks today."
"The snacks at the Duke's Mansion are absolutely delicious! I'm afraid I'll never be able to taste such delicious food again once I go back!"
Bai Yue smacked her lips as she spoke, as if she was still savoring the delicious taste.
"Okay, okay. From now on, the Duke's Mansion will ensure that Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess can enjoy these snacks at any time, every day, and will not let you miss a single one."
Looking at Bai Yue's genuine, unpretentious and free-spirited attitude, Mrs. Lin's affection for her surged like a tide.
She felt that Bai Yue was not as dull and rude as the rumors said. Instead, she felt that she was a kind-hearted, humorous and straightforward girl.
When Xiaoyi saw Bai Yue again, he was shocked by her miserable appearance.
But before she could speak, Bai Yue sighed deeply and said.
"Hey, what happened today is a long story. Since it's too long, I'll just skip it."
Bai Yue said this as she walked out of the house, apparently not planning to give Xiaoyi any explanation.
Xiaoyi looked at Bai Yue's black fox fur cloak suspiciously, and finally chose to remain silent.
After the two of them got into the car, Xiao 1, who had been silently observing the scene, jumped out again and said happily.
"Congratulations, the favorability of both Mo Xuanche and Chu Xingyu has increased by 5 points!"
When Bai Yue heard Xiao 1's voice, a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth involuntarily.
"You? You dare to show up?"
"Player, player, you have to understand that the system has its own limitations. After all, this is a love game. If we don't let you experience the sweetness of love, how can we show the charm of our game?"
In order to win back Bai Yue's heart, Xiao 1 quickly switched to the mode of winning people's hearts.
"Don't worry. To prevent this kind of thing from happening again, the system has specially prepared an advanced benefit for you. I'll help you quickly master the Qinggong secret manual you just drew. In just one week, you'll be able to become the world's number one Qinggong master and dominate the world!"
"A one-week crash course!"
Bai Yue felt that Mo Xuanche would not harass her again within this week.
Since the system was so generous this time and spared no expense, Bai Yue decided to magnanimously let go of past grudges and give this guy a chance to reform.
"That's right, dear players!"
"Because you bravely saved the drowning child just now, you've earned 300 points of public support! Not only that, your good deed has won the favor of the upper class nobles of the Mulie Kingdom, and your respect has soared by 3 points!"
