Wanyan Ningzi felt that Yang Ruxin was pletely messing with her. Twenty silver coins? She needed five hundred, but she couldn’t get angry, only stared at her with a displeased expression.
Yang Ruxin seemed to be frightened by the other’s gaze, stepped back two steps: "Princess Ningzi, your gaze is too scary. If you don’t need it, then we’ll be leaving first."
"Wait." Wanyan Ningzi closed her eyes for a moment. She prided herself on being a smart person, so she wouldn’t keep doing foolish things.
Yang Ruxin stopped and looked back at her.
"Can I trouble you to send someone to notify my brother?" Wanyan Ningzi clenched her fists inside her sleeves, "I went out without bringing any money, but I bid on this lantern."
Yang Ruxin hurriedly nodded: "No problem."
Gu Qingheng called out to Gu Qiao: "You go take a trip."
Gu Qiao nodded and then instantly disappeared.
"Then princess, please wait, we’ll be leaving first." Yang Ruxin nodded slightly, not wanting to stay there with her waiting.
"Madam." Wanyan Ningzi hurriedly called out to Yang Ruxin, "But the person hasn’t arrived yet."
"I’m only responsible for helping, not for staying with you to wait, right?" Yang Ruxin spread her hands.
"You..."
Wanyan Ningzi was rendered speechless.
At this moment, however, Yang Ruxin saw a familiar figure walking over, quickly smiled slightly, and nudged Gu Qingheng.
Gu Qingheng naturally saw the person ing over and quickly walked up, cupped his hands: "Prince Yun."
"General Gu." Qi Jingyun nodded slightly, but his gaze swept over to Yang Ruxin behind him.
"Your Highness Prince Yun, you arrived just in time." Yang Ruxin hurried over as well, "Your fiancée is in trouble now." She pointed to Wanyan Ningzi behind her, "We originally sent someone to notify Wanyan Crown Prince, but it takes time. Now that you’re here, it’s good. I’ll leave it to you." Saying this, she pulled Gu Qingheng to leave.
"Xinxin!" Qi Jingyun frowned, "She is not my fiancée."
"Well, close enough." Yang Ruxin waved her hand nonchalantly, "In any case, rescuing a damsel in distress is up to you." Saying this, she glanced at Wanyan Ningzi, "The young lady is embarrassed, awkward, and sad right now, hurry up and go, young man." Then, she pulled Gu Qingheng and left without looking back.
Whether or not Prince Yun would help Wanyan Ningzi was none of her concern.
Qi Jingyun frowned as he watched the cunning little woman pull another man away, feeling an indescribable sensation in his heart.
"Your Highness Prince Yun." Wanyan Ningzi was actually happy, unexpectedly meeting someone she admired, so this outing was worth it.
"What trouble?" Qi Jingyun withdrew his gaze and looked at Wanyan Ningzi.
"I bid on a lantern." Wanyan Ningzi bit her lip, "But didn’t bring enough money."
"You wanted to participate in the auction, yet didn’t bring enough money?" Qi Jingyun sneered.
Wanyan Ningzi’s face instantly turned red. She brought a hundred silver coins, which was already a fortune, but who knew she would be provoked earlier, acting impulsively and thoughtlessly, otherwise how could she fall into such an awkward situation?
Fortunately, Qi Jingyun didn’t say much more, only asked how much was missing.
"Four hundred."
"What?" Qi Jingyun was stunned for a moment, looked at that lantern, and showed a look of incredulity, "Five hundred silver coins for a lantern? Princess, you must be quite wealthy."
