Chapter 62.2: Do You Know, I've Been Searching For You
"Good good good, Ning Ning is the best." Yan Ning Luo said encouragingly, where her gaze then spotted Yu Jing Zhuo who seemed highly distracted and looked like he was eager to get out from there, which puzzled her. "Why will your Third Brother accompany you to come over here today?"
She must not be blamed for being curious, as that fella's infamy as a rootless playboy really rang too loud and it was hard to see his person all the time. He was always either immersed in those smoky and hazy places seeking pleasure or engaged in drinking revelry with several friends, a gang of scoundrels making merry, the biggest hedonistic wastrel that everyone knew well.
And the news that this biggest wastrel had recently mended his ways was no secret at all.
Speaking about that, Yu Xiao Ning then remembered the reason she had come here for and her eyes lit up. "Let me tell you. My Third Brother has his eyes set on one of the ladies in your Eternal Peace Duke Manor, and he has changed himself completely because of her. Isn't that just unbelievable! ?"
That was just as amazing as a rotten pebble turning into a priceless gem!
Yan Ning Luo's expression turned into astoundment, her gaze complicated as she turned to look at Yu Jing Zhuo. "Yan Xi Ruo or Yan Xi Wu….. Which one has he taken a liking to?"
"Neither one of them. He said he met her back at the palace banquet."
The image of a person came into Yan Ning Luo's mind at that moment. But as Qing Ye Li was there, she did not give it any further thought. "We'll speak of that later. Since you're here, sit down and have a meal with us."
Yu Xiao Ning sat down, and as luck would have it, with just one seat in between them, was Qing Ye Li. Her lips stiffened, a little unhappy, but she did not show it too much, but had gone on to chat with Yue Xin Yan beside her. "Ninth Princess, I am Yu Xiao Ning."
Yue Xin Yan blinked her beautiful blue eyes. "I know about you. The Green Wave Kingdom's most talented woman, a good friend of Princess Ning Feng's."
"So you've heard of me?" Yu Xiao Ning said happily with a smile, the two little dimples so adorable looking. She then cast a careful glance towards a particular man and went to lean in closer to say in a low voice: "Does the Duke of Vast Sea have a bad temper? Seeing that he's always looking so cold and icy all the time."
Yue Xin Yan looked at her in surprise, but was not angry. She smiled with stiffened lips and then said: "Big Brother Ye Li is a very good person. You'll come to know that after you come to interact with him."
Yuy Xiao Ning rubbed the goose b.u.mps rising up over her arms, showing that she thought that scenario to be a horrifying one.
Qing Ye Li looked expressionlessly outside the door, his gaze far distant for an instant. Baili Ji Ran beside him was saying something to him and he was not paying attention to him at all. It was just for a very brief instant, that a strange feeling in his heart seemed to be pointing out the way to him.
In just a few moments, the servant maids who have been waiting outside the doors heard the order for them to bring in the delicious and exquisitely prepared delicacies in turn, to be arranged upon the enormous round table.
"The dishes have been served. Let's have something to eat." Yan Ning Luo opened her mouth to say gently, her gaze then turning to look at Qing Ye Li directly opposite her. Seeing that he looked a little distracted, she called out to him. "Qing Ye Li, the Eternal Peace Duke Manor's head chef has great cooking skills. You should have a taste and see how it compares to the food in your Water Edge Kingdom."
Qing Ye Li raised his head up slightly, his voice magnetic and cold, filled with a different kind of attraction in its tenor. "Thank you Princess Ning Feng for your kind hospitality."
The atmosphere at the table immediately became a little strange in that instant.
It was the first time they were hearing someone call the Duke of Vast Sea by his name.
No. It should be the second time. Back at the palace banquet, Yan Ning Luo had already addressed him like that once.
Her tone had been so unbelievably natural, and the Duke of Vast Sea had silently acknowledged it?
Everyone's eyes could not hide their gaze secretly measuring the situation, seeking to spot anything strange or fishy.
