Chapter 465 (1/2)
Wrong (1)
“Your Majesty, what did I do wrong? You have to at least tell me!” blurted Li Yan indignantly, even Li Tianjun wasn’t quick enough to stop him.
“As I said, you re-opened Romantic Floor.” Zhao Yarou was not angered, or maybe her anger was hidden.
“Just because of that? Some people even re-sold businesses that had been shut down, you’re just using this as an excuse!” raged Li Yan.
Zhao Yarou put down the document in her hands. “Are you questioning my decisions?” she asked, staring at him.
“Yes.”
There was a Chinese saying for a situation like this one: newborn calves do not fear the tiger.
Everyone present was sure Li Yan was going to be in deep trouble soon. However, they had the same questions too. The punishment was too severe for merely re-opening the Romantic Floor.
“Re-opening the brothel was just a minor thing. Many people have done something like this, I think this is unfair!” Li Yan continued, refusing to back down.
“Stop talking, you idiot! You were wrong, so admit you’re wrong- even if you think it is a small thing! Her Majesty is already too kind with her punishment… Your Majesty, please forgive him, he is but an ignorant child.” Li Tianjun had to speak up to save him but everyone knew he was too late.
“You must be wondering why I’m doing this.” Zhao Yarou gave Li Tianjun a look that said I know what your intentions are, I know you let your son speak to me like this before ‘trying’ to stop him.
Her words weren’t only for the Li father and son, they were also meant for everyone present.
“This is because you touched the Romantic Floor. It doesn’t matter who. Without my permission, no one is allowed to touch the property left by him, ” she said coldly.
As she spoke, a teenage boy’s face appeared in everyone’s minds. They all knew who she was talking about.
Ye Lang.
Everyone here had met Ye Lang before, they were very familiar with the kid.
However, no one dared mention his name now. It was common knowledge that Ye Lang was a banned topic in front of Zhao Yarou.
That was why no one ever brought up matters about him, not even mentioning the word ‘thirteen’.
As they thought of Ye Lang, they realised they had forgotten about something else: the Romantic Floor was considered Ye Lang’s private property, it did not belong to the Ye family.
Ye Lang’s one backyard had already sparked a huge commotion years ago. The Romantic Floor was a place he had once lived in for a period of time, perhaps he had left something important inside.
They believed this might be the most important reason why Zhao Yarou was upset. If anyone found something important inside, the damage to her monarch could be irreversible.
Li Yan most likely brought this onto himself. He could’ve taken over any other spot but he CHOSE this Romantic Floor instead…
