"Yeah, I know." Qin Zhaoci felt An Shujue's eyes just now and knew that this person was not a good person. Wan Baiyun's words only further proved her suspicion, and the hatred for An's father and daughter in her heart increased a little.
"Oh, by the way." Wan Baiyun touched Qin Zhaoci's arm, "Do you still have that wine? Can you give me a bottle? Didn't you say you still have more?"
Qin Zhaoci rolled her eyes. " Let's talk about that later."
"What more is there to say?" Wan Baiyun touched Qin Zhaoci's hand, "I've helped you out so much that I can't even get a one bottle of wine?"
Qin Zhaoci looked at Wan Baiyun's pleading face, almost petulant, her goosebumps rose up and waved off her hand in disgust, "Okay, but really let's just talk about it again when I get back."
"Okay." Wan Baiyun smiled happily " You are really my good friend."
Qin Zhaoci waved off her hands in disgust again, not wanting to talk to Wan Baiyun anymore.
Looking at Wan Baiyun and Qin Zhaoci's relationship, and knowing that they still disliked each other in a good way, Zhou Qifeng smiled and shook her head, "It seems that even though Xiaoci has lost her memory, her relationship with Baiyun is still the same."
After Qin Zhaoci heard this, she smiled awkwardly and elbowed Wan Baiyun's arm and asked in a low voice, "Was my relationship with you like this before?"
Wan Baiyun nodded her head, "Yeah, but you used to treat me worse, and you used to get physical with me, but now it's much better than in the past, at least you don't get physical, but only verbal."
"Oh, really," Qin Zhaoci tugged the corner of her lips awkwardly and nodded.
Just as the two of them were chatting awkwardly, a clamor rang out in the banquet hall, followed by silence, accompanied by the sound of several crisp high heels descending the stairs.
Both Qin Zhaoci and Wan Baiyun subconsciously looked towards the stairs.
A foot wearing golden high heels was the first to appear at the stairway entrance, and soon, the person stepped out of the shadows completely, revealing her full appearance.
The sound of a backwards intake of breath resounded clearly in the banquet hall.
Qin Zhaoci followed suit and froze a bit.
Walking out from the stairway was a woman, she was wearing a golden floor-length evening gown, her seaweed-like blond hair hung down her shoulders, and a golden crown was pinned to the top of her head. Her skin was as fair as snow, paired with her Barbie-like face, and Qin Zhaoci instantly felt like she was seeing a real-life version of a Barbie doll princess.
Just as Qin Zhaoci was still sizing up this woman, Wan Baiyun on the side quickly tugged on her hand and reminded her in a low voice, "Hurry up and salute, this is Her Highness the Princess."
Qin Zhaoci quickly reacted, taking her eyes back and sweeping a few glances around, found that the people around her were saluting, so she hurriedly followed their steps to salute.
The salute was accompanied by the sound of people in the banquet hall greeting, "Greetings, Princess (Moon Alice) Yue Lisi."
"Yue Lisi.." Qin Zhaoci repeated in a murmur, "That name is also even very similar to Barbie."
"What doll are you talking about?" Wan Baiyun didn't hold back from asking as She watched Qin Zhaoci start muttering to herself after seeing the princess.
At this time, Yue Lisi had already come down from the stairs, surrounded by many people talking to her.
"Oh, I just said that this princess looks like a doll." Qin Zhaoci repeated to Wan Baiyun.
Wan Baiyun followed suit and nodded: "That's right, this Princess Yue Lisi is the most beautiful princess among the princesses and princes of the Royal family, and she is also very smart and excellent. Before Ye Lianyin entered and became the school belle of Imperial Academy, the position of the school belle was always hers, but unfortunately, she is an Omega, and the Royal family and the public have never considered her as a candidate for the next heir."
"Just because she's not an Alpha?" Qin Zhaoci frowned, "That's too unfair."
"It can't be helped, that's how the Empire is," Wan Baiyun shook her head, "It's not like one or two people who are dissatisfied can change the status quo."
Qin Zhaoci naturally knew this, and fell silent, not wanting to talk about it again.
"Isn't your mother telling you to go over there?" Wan Baiyun scanned the room, and instantly spotted Qin Zhongying who was signaling towards them not far away, and quickly touched Qin Zhaoci's arm to remind her.
"Teacher, I'll go for now to where my mother is, and when I have the chance afterward, I'll pay you a visit again."
Qin Zhaoci nodded slightly, and only after receiving Zhou Qifeng's nod did she moved her feet and walked towards where Qin Zhongying was.
"What's the matter, mom?" Qin Zhaoci was a little curious after walking to Qin Zhongying's side,"Are there any more business partners you want me to greet?"
"It's not a business partner this time, it's Princess Yue Lisi." Qin Zhongying pointed in the direction where the princess was, "Let's go and greet the princess."
Qin Zhaoci followed Qin Zhongying's finger and looked over. in addition to Princess Yue Lisi, she also saw Duke Celia at Princess Yue Lisi's side.
Qin Zhaoci's face instantly sank slightly as she nodded, "Okay, let's go over there."
Qin Zhongying nodded, and led Qin Zhaoci to the place where Yue Lisi was.
"Greetings Your Highness the princess, I am Qin Zhongying, the president of the Qin Group, and this is my daughter Qin Zhaoci, it's an honor to meet you." Qin Zhongying took the initiative to greet Yue Lisi.
Yue Lisi turned her head slightly, and when she saw Qin Zhongying, the corners of her lips curled up just right, she reached out her hand to gently shake Qin Zhongying's hand, nodded and said, "Greetings to you as well, President Qin, nice to meet you."
Qin Zhaoci stood aside, wondering whether she should say hello or not.
Princess Yue Lisi then placed her eyes on her and extended her hand to initiate a greeting, "Greetings, Ms. Qin."
"Greetings to you too, Princess Yue Lisi." Qin Zhaoci slightly bent down and politely gently shook Princess Yue Lisi's hand before quickly letting go.
Princess Yue Lisi took a serious look at Qin Zhaoci and earnestly complimented Qin Zhongying, "Your daughter is so beautiful, President Qin."
Not waiting for Qin Zhongying to open her mouth to humble herself for a few sentences, Duke Celia walked over in big strides and pushed away the people surrounding Princess Yue Lisi.
She impolitely picked up the conversation: "That's right, President Qin's daughter is not only beautiful, but also particularly good at fighting. Because of her, my son is still lying in the hospital and has not been discharged until now."
Princess Yue Lisi glanced at Duke Celia lightly, and a trace of displeasure and disgust quickly flashed in her eyes. Although she was displeased in her heart, she still had that gentle smile on her face, and didn't open her mouth to accuse anything.
This slight displeasure happened to be caught in Qin Zhaoci's eyes, and this reaction made Qin Zhaoci instantly understand that this Princess Yue Lisi is not as simple as it seems on the surface.
Not far away, Wan Baiyun and Zhou Qifeng also noticed the heavy atmosphere there, Zhou Qifeng's face darkened as he took the lead and walked towards the direction where Qin Zhaoci and Qin Zhongying were.
Wan Baiyun also quickly went to follow, with Zhou Qifeng, she believed that this Duke Celia could not do anything good.
Qin Zhongying was an old fox, and naturally heard the obvious sarcasm in Celia's words.
She hooked her lips, and pretended to be concerned about Celia: "Oh, indeed, although the Duke's son wanted to compete with Xiaoci, he couldn't say it directly, so she directly went to Xiaoci's wife to ask for a fight, And yes, Our family Xiaoci has always had a bad temper since she was a child, and she thought that the son of the Duke's family looked down on her, but I thought it wasn't that serious."
"If so, we're really sorry, we hope that it won't affect your son's future marriage and having a son, right? Hurting such an important body part, Xiaoci and I are actually very guilty, if you need us to bear any medical expenses, we will definitely not refuse."
After hearing this, Princess Yue Lisi's sight landed nonchalantly on Duke Celia that was on her side. She had actually heard a little about what Duke Celia's son did.
Listening to Qin Zhongying's tone just now, that son of her had a crush on someone else's wife and wanted to force himself on her, that's why he was beaten, and so he really deserved it.
Qin Zhaoci followed Qin Zhongying's words, emphasizing the pronunciation of the words: "Yes, my wife told me to 'compare' with the Duke's son, otherwise she'll get angry with me, and I don't dare to provoke 'my wife's temper anyway. I guess I accidentally lost control of my strength, when I struck him, I forgot that I was an S-level Alpha, although that strikes were neither light nor heavy, but still I'm really sorry."
After Qin Zhaoci finished speaking, her face didn't show any apologetic expression at all, and she even deliberately skimmed her lips disdainfully and gave Duke Celia a blank look.
How could Duke Celia let herself suffer such anger, she was about to tear her face off.
However, at this time, Zhou Qifeng stepped forward and greeted Princess Yue Lisi: "Your Highness, it's been a long time, how have you been?"
When Princess Yue Lisi saw Zhou Qifeng, she nodded slightly and took the initiative to greet him, "Master Zhou, long time no see, I'm fine as always."
Seeing Zhou Qifeng, Duke Celia quickly suppressed her anger, because the prince she was following now was the eldest prince.
Before the banquet, the eldest prince had repeatedly instructed her that the Royal heir has not yet been decided, and that the army must not be offended, especially Zhou Qifeng, who has a high status in the army, he must not be offended, otherwise she wouldn't have to endure, and even pursue Qin Zhaoci's action.
Seeing Zhou Qifeng approaching, Qin Zhaoci also understood that he was here to support her, and stood silently by the side, waiting for Zhou Qifeng to teach her a lesson.
Zhou Qifeng has never been a crooked person, so he said directly when he had something to say: "Duke Celia, your son deserves to be beaten. Don't make me say what he did in front of this large crowd, otherwise, I'm also afraid that your old face will have no place to put it."
"And, he was at fault in the first place, and the mother still has the nerve to blame the victim. I have lived for so long, and this is the first time I have seen such a brazen person."
Duke Celia didn't expect that Zhou Qifeng would not give her any face at all, and her face instantly turned ugly.
Just as she was about to open her mouth to retort something, a male voice rang out, "Ohh, what are you all talking to my Imperial sister about, it's so lively, can you let me listen and participate as well?"
Qin Zhaoci raised her head and saw not far away, a man in a golden princely dress came over.
Qin Zhaoci raised her head and saw that not far away, a man dressed in a golden prince's suit walked over.
His appearance is as greatly as similar to Yue Lisi, but unlike Yue Lisi's gentle and polite aura, his face was filled with hostility and arrogance.
"Yeah, I know." Qin Zhaoci felt An Shujue's eyes just now and knew that this person was not a good person. Wan Baiyun's words only further proved her suspicion, and the hatred for An's father and daughter in her heart increased a little.
"Oh, by the way." Wan Baiyun touched Qin Zhaoci's arm, "Do you still have that wine? Can you give me a bottle? Didn't you say you still have more?"
