Chapter 657 (1/2)
Accidental Discovery (1)
“Yeah, Ye Lang’s always so clueless, he never cared about these things. He used to play with beggars, I remember he even learned how to beg for money from a beggar…” interjected Princess Longji, recalling a childhood incident.
“...”
“I’ll be going to greet the Ai La princess now, she’ll be here anytime soon. You all go ahead!” After reading for a while, she closed her book and left the three other people in silence.
It’ll be better to run! She was very uncomfortable here. She wished Ye Lang was here, he would never leave them awkward like that!
Now that she thought of it, it was no wonder her grandmother wanted Ye Lang to be here. He could help fix the relationship between her grandmother and aunt.
No matter what, she did not want this situation to continue. Princess Longji greeted the people at the east city gate, where the Ai La entourage would arrive.
Dragon City was on the East of Ai La Empire, though the road wasn’t completely straight. The east gate was still the best entrance to use.

Princess Longji saw Ye Lanyu and the seventh princess at a stall, seemingly haggling for something. These two brats were demanding- they were rich, why did they have to haggle at such a small stall?

Princess Longji disagreed greatly, demanding to know who told her that. She must teach this person a lesson!
Ye Lanyu said her younger brother was the one who taught her this…
…
“Are you both shopping here? I’ll be meeting the princess of Ai La later, are you interested in coming along?” asked Longji.
“Not at all!” refused Ye Lanyu directly. She had no interest in meeting a princess. She’d probably consider if it were a prince.
“I knew you’d say that. Just come and keep me company, it’s still early,” said Princess Longji with a smile.
“Absolutely not!” said Ye Lanyu.
