Chapter 14

Lin Shan followed the direction of the crowd, all the way to the main hall. She was instantly shocked by what she saw.

Wow. What is so special about the Crown Prince? Regardless of ranking, all the government officials appeared to be extremely emotional and overjoyed to see him. Their eyes were filled with respect. In fact, they were so impressed that they almost failed to greet the Crown Prince in unison.

Lin Shan looked around and saw that the King, the Queen, and the Princes have all arrived. All the large government officials who could come were already here as well. Such a fancy occasion is honestly not very appropriate for someone low key like herself. Thus, Lin Shan found a spot somewhere further away so she wouldn’t be seen; she mixed herself in with a bunch of people.

Since her time in the Palace hasn’t been very long, and people were distracted by the Crown Prince’s arrival, no one seemed to take any notice of her as she stood around. In fact, she was being shoved all over the place. She tried to push her way forward, and felt like she was in a World Expo. All she could see were the heads of others, and not the Crown Prince.

What the heck? Is the Crown Prince really that charming? Lin Shan’s level of curiosity has reached its limit. She stood on her tiptoes, and tried to squeeze through the people just to see something.

At that moment, a faraway eunuch’s voice could be heard: “The Crown Prince is about to enter!”

The crowd cried out in surprise and started to push forward. Lin Shan lost the spot that she had gotten with great difficulty. Now, all she could see were heads swaying. By the time the uproar was over, she could only see the backside of a person who was in armour from head to toe. From where she was, she couldn’t even tell if it was a man or a woman – let alone the face.

“The Crown Prince is truly brilliant and G.o.dly!”

“Young and promising!”

“A young hero!”

“His presence is out of the ordinary!”

“Worthy of a general style!’

——-

An excessive amount of praise came out of those people and Lin Shan was annoyed. Are you kidding me? You can see this much inner potential from looking at his back? What’s going to happen if you saw his front? If I were the Crown Prince, my t.e.s.t.i.c.l.es would hurt!

Suddenly, Du Hao sneezed in the main hall.

——-

Since Du Hao arrived back to the Palace two days ahead of schedule, the Palace could not prepare the welcome reception in time. Therefore, after greeting the King and reporting his battle news (what he has accomplished), the Crown Prince received his rewards and the simple welcome ceremony was over. Du Hao and his high ranking military officers departed from the scene, and everyone else that was originally surrounding to watch started to leave as well. Lin Shan was left by herself to mourn. After all this, she didn’t even get a glimpse of the Crown Prince’s face. He’s supposedly one of the most gorgeous man in the country! I wonder if he’s as hot as Lian Feng?

Speaking of Lian Feng, what’s wrong with that guy? He’s so hot yet he wears a mask. What a waste of G.o.d’s gift! But then again, maybe there are lots of hidden secrets when working for the King. Maybe he’s like a Tiger squad leader and works better undercover!

As Lin Shan thought about it, she felt relieved. She decided to stroll around the Palace before heading back to eat.

As she was strolling, she recognized a familiar figure from faraway. That figure was with a bunch of people, and they were walking across the path ahead of her. Lin Shan froze.

Huh? Isn’t…isn’t that Lian Feng? How did he heal so quickly? He looked so energized as he spoke with his companions. Wait!! Something doesn’t seem right… she thought about it and quickly realized that Lian Feng wasn’t wearing his mask!

Oh my goodness. I just put him as a Tiger squad leader. How come the moment I turn around, his underground organization turned to above ground? She was strikingly curious and rushed forward, about to call him.
