Chapter 423
Ye Xingguang’s heart stirred: “How do you know?”
“How do I know? Don’t you know that your love is tied to the entire kingdom? When you are smitten, everyone feels sweet as honey. When you are heartbroken, everyone else becomes depressed and teary, too. Tonight, the whole kingdom experienced dramatic emotional swings. One moment, everyone was shedding tears. The next moment, a wave of joy sprung from within each of us!”
“Did you know? The entire kingdom knows about your love affair. The elders are furious, saying they are going to find you and crush your love! Because, for the sake of the kingdom’s future, you can only marry the vampire heir!”
Ye Xingguang, stunned, said: “Why would my love be linked to the entire kingdom?”
“Because you have been chosen as the queen’s heir. The Sacred Tree has already recognized you as its master. You know that the Sacred Tree, also known as the Love Tree, can perceive the queen’s love and influence the entire kingdom. Tonight, the Sacred Tree, which had not blossomed for thirty years, bloomed bountifully. You have no idea how beautiful the sight was. But the more beautiful it was, the angrier the people got. How can you marry the vampire heir if you’ve fallen for someone else?”
Ye Xingguang: “…”
That damn tree had not bloomed in years, let alone more frequently than once every thirty. And now, because she was falling in love, it did? Could it be that magical?
Ye Xingguang didn’t believe it: “You said that the Sacred Tree can sense my love. But I have been in love before. Why didn’t it bloom then? Yen’an, don’t fool me around, I simply cannot believe it.”
“When were you in love?” Yen’an was curious.
“A year ago. We broke up two months ago.”
Yen’an’s voice, puzzled: “That’s impossible! For the past year, even two months ago, we’ve never sensed your love.”
Ye Xingguang sighed in relief: “That is why the Sacred Tree is not magical at all. My love cannot possibly be tied to the entire kingdom.”
Yen’an, rendered speechless by her question, hesitated for a second then retorted: “That could only prove that you were never truly in love with your ex. It doesn’t mean that the Sacred Tree didn’t sense your love.”
Ye Xingguang: “…”
Why did she feel like what Yen’an said made sense?
She might not have truly loved Yun Chen, but how could she not experience the spark of love? She did date him after all. This was completely unscientific. Could it be that the Sacred Tree was actually asleep before?
Moreover, she had also been around the annoying Bai Xiao for two months. She could hardly resist his handsome face and did feel the spark of love, especially the day after Valentine’s Day. Bai Xiao’s post on Weibo had pleased her immeasurably. Did the Sacred Tree not sense that?noveldrama
How come it senses it now?
Yen’an said: “I called you to give you a heads-up. You need to be cautious. The elders will not allow you to fall in love with someone other than the vampire heir.”
Huh, her love life was certainly not anyone else’s business!
But Yen’an’s words did put her on alert. She really didn’t want to annoy the elders. Now, what to do? Should she go back and cut down the Sacred Tree, or should she find the vampire heir and get rid of him?
Yen’an said: “That’s all I wanted to remind you of. Also, don’t feel down anymore. It affects me, too. I felt like crying for no reason just now, and it scared the crap out of Bai Xiao! I’m hanging up now, my Queen.”
“Wait, can you tell me in more detail about what exactly you felt?”
Yen’an’s sultry voice: “One moment, I felt so upset and disappointed that I wanted to chop every man into pieces. The next moment, I wanted to throw myself into a man’s arms, wondering why he took so long to show up. I believe these were your feelings, but the entire kingdom experienced them with you.”
