The Princess Agents Want a Divorce

Chapter 41 Attending the Eighth Princess's Birthday Party

The banquet was held in the back garden, where the scenery was breathtaking. It was springtime, with flowers in full bloom and butterflies and bees bustling around the blossoms!

Today's guests are mostly direct descendants of prominent families! Of course, there are also a few scattered illegitimate children!

The princess is absolutely stunning today! Indeed, who here can compare to her! She is truly beautiful inside and out, with exceptional grace! Yes, yes!

Hearing the praise, Jun Ningshuang looked smug!

An untimely remark suddenly came out! "Your Highness, everyone has arrived except for the second young lady of the Gu State General's Mansion. She is clearly taking advantage of the fact that she will be your sister-in-law in the future and doesn't respect you at all!"

Yes! We've been waiting for so long, and she still hasn't arrived. Isn't this just putting on airs? Just because she's about to marry Prince Li, she doesn't respect the princess at all!

Listening to everyone's comments, Jun Ningshuang's face turned extremely ugly!

Just then, a young eunuch announced loudly! "Prince Li has arrived!"

Upon hearing that it was Prince Li who had arrived, everyone hurriedly stood up and bowed!

Greetings, Prince Li!

Jun Ningshuang grinned and happily went to greet him! "Brother Li, why are you so late! You've kept Shuang'er waiting!"

Looking at the person who was clinging to Jun Moli's arm and swaying back and forth with a coy and affected expression, Gu Lingxi felt a chill! This didn't look like a biological sister at all.

Jun Ningshuang was immediately displeased when she saw that there was a woman following behind Jun Moli!

With a smirk, she pointed at Gu Lingxi and arrogantly asked, "Who are you? What do you want to do following my brother Li?"

Gu Lingxi pouted. "Do you think I want to follow him? Heh, who do you think I am? If you hadn't gone and invited me to this ridiculous birthday banquet, would I even bother coming?"

How dare you! I'm asking you a question! Are you deaf? What are you standing there for?

Jun Moli sat down and looked at Gu Lingxi, who was staring at him with a resentful expression, and smiled. "Come and sit here with me! Since you are my future queen consort, it is only natural for you to sit here!"

Upon hearing Prince Li's words, everyone gasped! This woman was none other than Prince Li's fiancée, the second young lady of the Gu family, Gu Lingxi!

Upon learning Gu Lingxi's true identity, Jun Ningshuang was even more furious. She had originally heard from Gongsun Ruier that Gu Lingxi had disfigured herself and wanted to humiliate her! Wanting to marry her Brother Li? What a pipe dream! If it weren't for not wanting to ruin her mother's plans, she would have already sent someone to kill this vile woman! But instead, Jun Ningshuang bit her lip in fury, glaring at Gu Lingxi with a murderous expression! How did she manage to seduce Brother Li? It seemed Brother Li had a strong liking for her?

Gu Lingxi was not afraid of her at all! The Prince of Li was the most powerful person here, and since the most powerful person had spoken, she naturally acted like a good girl and obediently walked to the small table next to the Prince of Li and sat down!

Princess, today is your birthday. Miss Gu's unexcused lateness must be punished. Otherwise, where is the princess's dignity? Where is the royal family's face?

Yes! Punishment is necessary to appease the public!

Hearing someone speak up for her made Jun Ningshuang feel much better! She was the dignified Eighth Princess, and besides, her brother Li always doted on her! Punishing a minister's daughter was a piece of cake! Even if she became her sister-in-law in the future, so what? Once she was no longer of any use, she would make sure she died a horrible death!

However, to demonstrate her princess-like demeanor, she still spoke up appropriately. "Since everyone has spoken, I, the princess, won't make things difficult for you! You'll perform a dance for everyone, and if everyone approves, you won't be punished!"

Gu Lingxi rolled her eyes! This wasn't considered difficult? She wasn't a dancer, why should she dance in public for people to enjoy? Besides, there was no benefit to it! If it were ten thousand or eight thousand, she might consider it!

Besides, as far as she knew, the original owner of this body was quiet and reserved, only fond of playing the piano and writing, and knew only a little about dancing! She was practically a terrible dancer! She herself was an expert dancer, haha, so what? She just wouldn't dance!

Your Highness, please forgive Lingxi's rudeness! Today is Your Highness's birthday banquet, and it is perfectly reasonable for Lingxi to dance for you! It is just unfortunate that on the way here, some unknown people sent a group of assassins to ambush my General's carriage!

I was fortunate enough to meet Prince Li.

Help! Otherwise, I really wouldn't be able to see Your Highness again! I twisted my ankle while running away, I really spoiled Your Highness's enjoyment!

Jun Ningshuang snorted coldly, "You're more than just a spoilsport; with your whining and crying, anyone who didn't know better would think I, the princess, had gone!" She waved her hand in annoyance, "Fine, just punish yourself with three cups!"

Seeing the princess's signal, a maid immediately went over and filled three cups of wine for Gu Lingxi!

Ling Xi glared at the indifferent person next to her!

Jun Moli, sensing her dissatisfaction, raised his cup with a look of amusement!

Gu Lingxi snorted coldly! If it weren't for you, would I have arrived so late and been targeted?

She picked up the wine cup and drank it all in one gulp. Tsk tsk, it tastes awful! It's miles worse than the wine in her space!

She raised her second cup! Just as she lowered her head, the maid beside her grabbed her veil and poured the wine over her!

The moment the veil fell, the entire room fell silent! Everyone was stunned by Gu Lingxi's beauty!

A sharp, loud snap brought everyone back to reality!

How dare you! You dare to hit the princess's people?

The maid also covered her face and sobbed! Princess, you must stand up for me!

A faint, mocking smile appeared on Gu Lingxi's stunning face!

Not only am I being presumptuous, I'm being completely unrestrained! Today is Her Highness's special day, and this wretched maid is clearly here to bring bad luck to the princess!

We are all honored guests invited by Her Highness the Princess! Her Highness will certainly not blame us! But this lowly servant knowingly violated the rules; what use is she to be so clumsy on such an important day? If I don't teach her a lesson on behalf of Her Highness, wouldn't Her Highness have to suffer?

Every word she said made sense, and she was thinking of the princess! No one could refute her!

Jun Moli was somewhat displeased just now! He discovered that in such a short time, his possessiveness towards her had become alarmingly strong! Her beauty, her every smile, her quirky charm, her secrets, everything about her made him want to cherish them, to explore them slowly by himself, and not to share them with anyone else!

Jun Ningshuang looked resentful. This Gu Lingxi really didn't take her seriously. She dared to hit her maid in front of her. How could she save face?

That Gongsun Ruier is truly useless. Wasn't she supposed to have ruined Gu Lingxi's appearance? What's going on now? She's even more beautiful than before, as if she's been infused with a soul, vibrant and captivating! I've only seen the old Gu Lingxi once from afar; she was timid and submissive, no different from any other aristocratic young lady who fawned over her, possessing only a pretty face! Now, looking at her with such poise and stunning beauty! Standing next to Brother Li, she's such an eyesore!
