Chapter 1023: Chapter 1023: A Familiar Scene

Suddenly, he stepped forward and lifted Little Yue’s petite body entirely, then amidst Little Yue’s astonished gaze, he kissed her delicate lips.

The kiss was deep; whether Little Yue was too surprised or had forgotten to respond, she seemed entirely submissive and did not resist at all. She let him have his way, her bright eyes gradually becoming hazy, lost in his deep affection.

It turned out the feeling of a light kiss was so wonderful—this thought echoed in Little Yue’s mind at this moment.

Once your origin was revealed, there would be no secrets left between you and the three women.

Little Yue was clinging to you, asking you to take her out day after day, and the words she used were full of temptation: "Second Young Master, my body has shrunk now, but it will grow bigger once we go out."

"Second Young Master, if you take me to catch ghosts, I’ll let you touch me, how about that?"

You, drooling a little, waited for Chang’an’s response.

You knew things seemed calm on the surface, but undercurrents were swirling beneath. Maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after tomorrow, the court would make a big move. After all, this matter involved the Crown Prince Li Chengqian’s conspiracy to rebel.

Of course, these things were no longer of much consequence to you.

You suddenly felt enlightened, no longer guarded against Zhen Nan, and showed even more affection toward Zi Yi. For you, having today was already a blessing determined by fate.

At the same time, you cherished the people around you even more.

Aside from Wu Zhao and the Gaoyang Princess, who was far away in the capital and quite bothersome, only your three closest loved ones remained by your side. Although you didn’t know the reaction of Luo Cheng and others, you understood that under the control of Order Power, it would likely be challenging to put aside their burdens and accept you.

After a tender moment with the three women, you suddenly remembered the appointment you had tonight, and thinking of that peerless beauty made your heart involuntarily begin to race.

This feeling had not emerged for a long time, and you were very pleased by it.

However, this was something absolutely not to be let known by the three beloved wives at home, or else, you might have to sleep on the floor tonight.

In the end, you left the residence under the same pretext of attending a banquet, but the banquet you were supposedly attending was Pei Yuanfu’s.

Now, Pei Yuanfu was busy dealing with troubles concerning the Lin Family and had no time to bother about you.

After killing their three clans and then playing the role of a careless steward, only a scoundrel like you would do something like this. Of course, this was also your absolute trust in the sincerity and efficiency of your subordinates Shi Kai and Black Teeth Changzhi.

Reception Hall.

Guided by a waiter, you arrived at a private room on the third floor.

Pushing the door open, you found the peerless beauty and Qin Yuxuan discussing something; Qin Yuxuan was animatedly gesturing, while the peerless beauty was gently pursing her lips and smiling radiantly.

"Cough, sorry to disturb you both," you cleared your throat and walked in.

"Hey, why are you only just arriving?" Qin Yuxuan looked at you with some reproach, "Didn’t those three tigresses at home let you out?"

"Uh, well... I’ve been quite busy lately, please forgive any neglect, haha." You chuckled awkwardly.

"Tsk, how busy could you be? You’ve fiercely wiped out the entire Lin Family and scared the Cui Family to death; now, who in Minzhou City would dare provoke you?"

"Hehe, are you wondering why I am so well-informed?" Qin Yuxuan looked at you with a smug expression, her charming demeanor irresistible.

"I’m all ears."

"It’s quite simple, my elder sister is the Great Princess of the current dynasty, and she has a plethora of sources."

Upon hearing this, you were stunned. The Great Princess? Could it be the one you rejected in marriage?

Seeing your astonished face, Qin Yuxuan achieved her goal. She couldn’t help but feel immensely satisfied and giggled coquettishly, "Are you regretting it now, regretting your impulsive rejection?"

However, contrary to Qin Yuxuan’s expectations, a confident smile immediately appeared on your somewhat astonished face, "Regret? No, no, no, I never regret my actions, nor do I understand the meaning of ’regret.’"

"You..."

Qin Yuxuan was somewhat frustrated.

You looked at the Great Princess, who was sitting there silently but smiling, and suddenly felt a strong sense of familiarity. You frowned and bowed to the Great Princess, "Your Highness, please forgive my audacity, but why do I feel an uncanny familiarity with you?"

The Great Princess smiled faintly, her smile blooming like a vibrant peony, graceful and luxurious, "I don’t know why, but I also feel something similar towards the General."

You scratched your head, a bitter smile on your face, realizing it would be difficult to extract any valuable information from the Great Princess, who was tight-lipped.

"Hey, hey, stop speaking in riddles," Qin Yuxuan was always direct and fiery, completely unlike her deceptive exterior. "Let’s have the waiter bring up the food; I’m so hungry I’m getting dizzy."

"Miss Qin, as a cultivator, do you feel hunger too?"

"Humph, can’t I be a foodie?" Qin Yuxuan glared at you fiercely.

"Oh, sure, sure."

Crazy Woman, ultimately, is crazy and completely unreasonable.

"Hey, why are you staring at me like that?"

Qin Yuxuan, seeing you staring blankly at her, couldn’t help but feel a bit guilty. She liked you and was deliberately provocative to catch your attention, perhaps even your care.

"Sorry," you said with an apologetic smile.

Then, the Great Princess raised her glass and addressed you, "Today, I am thankful for General Luo’s life-saving grace."

"Your Highness is too kind. It was nothing more than lifting a finger," you responded with a smile, and the two of you clinked glasses and drank.

"Go away, you lowly scum!" At that moment, a very arrogant voice came from outside the compartment, causing all three inside to furrow their brows simultaneously. You found the voice somewhat familiar, while Qin Yuxuan and another lady showed more annoyance.

The door to the compartment was pushed open, and a handsome young man stepped in.

"Zi Ying has come uninvited, please forgive my rudeness, Your Highness." The newcomer was the Third Prince of Qin Kingdom, Ying Ziying, a person who made all three present feel disgusted—not because of his appearance, but because of his behavior and arrogant demeanor.

"Who let you in!" Qin Yuxuan was not polite to others and immediately slammed the table towards the Third Prince.

Ying Ziying remained unflinching, apparently used to Qin Yuxuan’s temper. Ignoring her rage, he walked over to you, using a condescending tone and arrogant voice, "Hey, move aside for this prince, do you even belong here?"
