Chapter 804
Thinking this, she ate exceptionally quickly, so much so that she let out an exaggerated burp before others had even finished their meals.
Such behavior was a disgrace to the empire’s image. Third Elder Geshu Tang gave her a dangerously warning glance, as if to say, if she damaged the dignified image of the queen further, her friend would not survive the night.
Ye Xingguang treated Third Elder Geshu Tang’s look as if it were thin air. This old guy, who was over a hundred years old yet still had the face of a handsome young man, was going to get it one of these days!
Ye Xingguang, resting her chin in her hand, gazed at Li Yu’s strikingly pale and handsome face, “Mr. Li, have you finished eating?”
Li Yu put down his utensils, a smile playing on his lips as he waited for what she would say next.
Ye Xingguang cast a quick glance at Li Yu, “If you’re done, how about we take a stroll and exchange our feelings?”
“My pleasure.”
Ye Xingguang immediately stood up, “Then what are we waiting for? Let them continue eating. I’ll accompany you for a walk.”
Li Yu wiped the corners of his mouth with a napkin, then slowly rose, looking around and nodding with a smile, “Everyone, please enjoy your meal.”
The Third Elder chuckled, “It seems Her Majesty the Queen finds us too glaring a presence. Your Majesty and Mr. Li, please feel free to go wherever you wish. I will ensure the rest of our company is well entertained. If you need anything, just let me know and I’ll have it arranged.”
“Much appreciated, Third Elder. Actually, I’d like to take a tour around. This is my first time visiting the underwater city, and I was wondering if Her Majesty would wish to accompany me outside the palace to explore?” Li Yu expressed genuine interest.noveldrama
“Actually, Her Majesty doesn’t usually leave the palace much either. I’ll immediately arrange a guide for you so that Mr. Li and Her Majesty can have a great time,” said the Third Elder as he stood up and went out to organize their royal carriage.
Ye Xingguang couldn’t help but roll her eyes, yet she warmly invited Li Yu out. In a shark-brand submarine, she wouldn’t allow anyone else to pilot for her. She took the helm while Li Yu sat beside her, but even so, there were still a dozen or more shark-brand submarines escorting them. Once they left the palace, the convoy was an impressive sight.
Inside the submarine, with no one else around, Ye Xingguang immediately let loose a huge yell, “Aaah! How could it be you? How could the second heir of the vampire clan be you? I never dreamed that you were a vampire heir. If I had known, I wouldn’t have been so anxious!”
With no outsiders present, Li Yu dropped his formal demeanor, stretching his legs out carelessly, using his hands as a pillow against the back of his chair, a look of disbelief that matched hers on his face, “Lil’ sis, when did you start playing queen? Muya Jiushu? Hmm, how come I never knew you had such a cumbersome name?”
“Never mind me for now, you explain first. How did you become the heir to the vampire clan? When did you turn into a vampire?”
“It’s a long story,” Li Yu said, crossing his legs in a manner that suggested he was reluctant to go into details.
Ye Xingguang was anxious, “What do you mean, ‘it’s a long story’? Just explain clearly!”
“A few years back, there was an accident. I barely survived, and that’s when a vampire first turned me. You mustn’t tell Dad about this. Lil’ sis, what do I do now? I came here to propose marriage, and the prospective bride turns out to be my own little sister. Is this a wedding to pursue or not?”
