Chapter 271: Chapter 269: Spending Money Lavishly, The Origin of Nan Tianzong
Lan’er was furious: “You! You shrew! You actually, actually…”
“Lan’er, who are you talking to?”
A voice like that of a warbling oriole came forth, making everyone’s body go weak for a moment. The young girl slowly descended the stairs, looking somewhat surprised when she saw Liu Sisi and her group.
“Your Highness! It’s this group of people! They dared to speak ill of you again!”
Lan’er, blaming the others first, pointed at Liu Sisi.
A quick flash of light flickered in the young girl’s eyes, too fast for anyone to catch. Her lips tightly closed, she displayed a maturity on her pretty face beyond her age, but she remained silent for a while.
“Who’s speaking ill? Oh! It’s you guys here.”
A male voice came down from the building, and soon enough, everyone saw an additional figure emerging from their view. The figure gradually revealed itself as a man descended from the building.
It was none other than Nan Tianzong!
He seemed to have dressed carefully today, enhancing his already handsome appearance, making him look even more like a noble gentleman.
Nan Tianzong’s eyes immediately lit up when he saw Liu Sisi and the others! His thin lips blossomed into a seductive, shallow smile.
“So it’s my sworn sister Sisi! Sisi, you also came to the county town today. Why didn’t you inform your brother, so he could be a good host and treat you with a warm welcome?”
While speaking, he also glanced at Di Yelei and the others.
From the moment Nan Tianzong appeared, Di Yelei’s eyebrows had not relaxed.
“Big Brother Nan, you are also here. It’s Sisi who has neglected you. Today we had some business in the city, so we didn’t get the chance to notify you.”
Liu Sisi gave a faint smile. In her heart, however, she couldn’t help but wonder, what was Nan Tianzong up to this time?
“So Brother Tianzong has a sworn sister as well, Luo has been disrespectful.”
A young man wearing a purple-gold crown appeared from behind Nan Tianzong at the side.
Only at this moment did Liu Sisi notice him, who had been standing behind Nan Tianzong.
He didn’t seem much older, slightly older than the Prefecture Princess Thirteen, and around thirteen or fourteen years old. He politely gave Liu Sisi a fist greeting.
“Oh! Look at me, I completely forgot to introduce everyone.”
Nan Tianzong hastily stepped forward, introducing everyone one by one: “This is Prince Luo’s heir, Heir Luo Taining, this is his younger sister, Prefecture Princess Thirteen. This is Ms. Liu, my sworn sister, who is also the female tutor of Lord Gan’s legitimate daughter, Miss Gan. And this is her husband, Di Yelei.”
Everyone naturally exchanged pleasantries and greetings before sitting back down on the floor.
Most people in the group looked indifferent as they chatted about the customs and people of Macheng County. If anyone’s face had changed drastically, it would be Lan’er, who was standing behind Prefecture Princess Thirteen. But no one cared about her at the moment.
Though the Heir has a young age, it must be said that his socializing skills are quite sophisticated. In no time, he was engrossed in conversation with Di Yelei and Zhang Peng.
Liu Sisi and Guihua sat on the other side, quietly sipping the fragrant tea in front of them along with Prefecture Princess Thirteen.
As Liu Sisi watched the eloquent Di Yelei, she felt delighted in her heart.
But when her gaze met Nan Tianzong’s, her eyes turned much deeper. Nan Tianzong could actually befriend the young prince, which implied that his background and identity may not be that simple.
“Prefecture Princess Luo, I apologize for any offense I might have caused at the Silver Pavilion earlier. I hope Your Highness will forgive my rudeness.”
