402: Chapter 403: With You, That’s Enough 402: Chapter 403: With You, That’s Enough “Rember!” Huangfu Jue gently patted the back of her hand, “No matter who the other person is, don’t let yourself be wronged.”
Before Gan Yuan appeared, countless people had been eyeing the position of Princess Consort, and by the ti she won his favor, Gan Yuan had already offended nurous contenders for the throne.
For today’s national celebration ceremony, Father had already ordered him to personally preside over it.
It was a trial, as well as a signal to the outside world that he was gradually taking over state affairs.
Of course, that also ant that he had unavoidable obligations before the banquet and naturally couldn’t stay by her side the entire ti.
Gan Yuan teasingly blinked at him, “Could there be anyone more difficult to deal with than you?”
If she wasn’t afraid of him, would she care about anyone else?
Grasping the aning behind her words, Huangfu Jue laughed softly.
“You should know, not everyone is like towards you.”
She laughed too.
“With you, it’s enough.”
Four words, a double entendre.
It wasn’t just an expression of her satisfaction, but also an underlying ssage—since everyone knew she belonged to him, they would naturally think twice before targeting her.
Unbeknownst to them, the car had already reached the Royal Palace’s main street and drove through the splendid arch-shaped gate.
This ti, the Imperial Palace banquet was held in the Royal Banquet Hall, following tradition.
At such a banquet, naturally, no one would be late, and guests from all walks had already arrived at the Royal Palace early.
The spread of gossip always moved faster than a plague, and this ti was no exception.
At this very mont, n were busy making new friends, discovering new connections, or seeking new prey, while the won’s topic of conversation was almost unanimously focused on one person—Gan Yuan.
“Do you think she’ll co to the banquet?” a young girl asked curiously.
“How could she?” Soone imdiately snorted with disdain, “This is the Royal Palace.
Unless the King and Queen allow it, the Prince surely couldn’t bring her over.”
“It’s not the sa, haven’t you noticed?
She wears a ring on the middle finger of her left hand.
I heard the Duke has already proposed to her!”
“Is it true?”
No sooner had the person spoken than a surprised female voice ca from behind.
Everyone looked towards the direction of the voice and saw a girl wearing a dark green gown standing not far away.
“Miss Annie,” soone recognized her and imdiately ca forward to introduce her to the group, “This lady is the daughter of the Marquis of F Country, the Minister, Miss Annie.”
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, soone inquired, “Did your father not co with you?”
Annie shook her head gently, “Father is unwell and did not co.
This ti, I’m here as the Secretary-General of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, leading the delegation to attend the celebration of your country.”
Previously, due to Miss Anna’s incident, Huangfu Jue declined F Country’s cooperation terms.
This ti, Annie led the delegation with the hope of salvaging the situation.
“I see, Miss Annie, you really are young and capable.” Accompanied by a pleasant female voice, soone from behind the crowd walked up to Annie and extended her hand, “I’ve heard my father ntion you several tis before.
It’s an honor to et you today.”
Annie smiled as she shook the other person’s hand, “May I ask who you are?”
The girl in a white gown lifted the corners of her lips gently, “Qian Xueying, Duke Locke is my father.”
With that, she turned to smile at Moses, who was approaching from behind.
