Chapter 171: Is there any shyness when the face is stiff? (Ch 171)

Yuan Haoyu looked at Zhao Qiankun coldly, his eyes full of disgust.

“Humph! That’s better!” Yuan Haoyu said in a cold and merciless tone, “That’s good enough, why don’t you get out of here!”

“It’s an eyesore here!”

As if Zhao Qiankun had been pardoned, he would not dare to stay for even a moment.

He fled out of the banquet hall, tumbling and crawling, looking extremely miserable. There was no trace of the dignity and bearing of a patriarch left in him.

Looking at Zhao Qiankun fleeing like a stray dog, a hint of disappointment flashed in Mo Yingchen’s eyes.

I originally wanted to take this opportunity to legitimately eliminate the hidden danger of Zhao Qiankun.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Haoyu’s sudden appearance disrupted his plans.

However, Mo Yingchen also understood that now was not the time to turn against the envoys from the human race’s ancestral land.

Yuan Haoyu’s strength is unfathomable and his identity is special. A rash conflict will do him no good.

What’s more, Yuan Haoyu didn’t seem to have any ill will towards him. Instead, he seemed to have a sense of closeness.

“Brother Mo, I will take Yunxi back to the ancestral land of the human race tomorrow.”

“My nephew Yuan Yiming still needs to gain experience in Plateau Province.”

“Well, could you help me take care of my ignorant nephew?”

Yuan Haoyu slowed down his tone, with a hint of request in it.

“Just think of it as doing me a favor, bro. I owe you one!”

Once the word “humanity” is mentioned, its weight suddenly increases.

The crowd watching at the venue were also stunned by this sentence.

Who is Yuan Haoyu?

The messenger from the ancestral land of the human race!

His favor is worth a thousand gold.

Yuan Yiming, who was standing behind Yuan Haoyu, was originally looking at Mo Yingchen with interest. When he heard his uncle’s words, he was stunned.

His surprised eyes moved back and forth between his uncle and Mo Yingchen.

I came out on my own this time.

The purpose was obviously to take advantage of the opportunity of his uncle sending Xia Yunxi back to his ancestral home, hoping to travel with the Princess Xia.

See if there is any possibility of making friends.

Why did it change suddenly?

Uncle is going to take Xia Yunxi back?

But he left himself with this… Mo Yingchen?

Yuan Yiming was full of doubts, but he did not dare to question his uncle’s decision in person.

I can only keep all the questions in my heart.

Mo Yingchen raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes deep as he looked at Yuan Haoyu.

His mind raced, and he instantly understood Yuan Haoyu’s intention.

This is a gesture of goodwill.

As an envoy from the ancestral land of the human race, he took the initiative to show goodwill to himself.

He also kept the young master of the Yuan family by his side.

It is said to be an experience, but in fact it is a gift of friendship to oneself.

Under the pretext of taking care of Yuan Yiming, they got closer to each other.

Yuan Haoyu is showing kindness to himself.

Hearing this, Mo Yingchen’s lips curled up slightly and revealed a smile.

There is no reason to refuse such a win-win situation.

What’s more, Yuan Haoyu’s show of goodwill did give him a bit of an unexpected surprise.

The kindness of the human race’s ancestral land is undoubtedly a help to him now.

“You are too polite, Envoy Yuan.”

“I grew up in Subei City. Since the envoy thinks highly of me, Mo Yingchen, I will take Yiming for a good tour this time and show my hospitality as a good host.”

“I promise that Master Yuan’s trip will be worthwhile.”

There was a hint of sincerity in Mo Yingchen’s words.

Yuan Haoyu laughed loudly, with an even stronger look of admiration in his eyes.

“Good! Good! Good!”

He said three good words in a row, which were enough to express his mood at the moment.

“Yiming, why don’t you thank Master Mo quickly?”

Yuan Haoyu turned to look at Yuan Yiming, his tone stern.

Yuan Yiming finally reacted and quickly saluted Mo Yingchen with his fists clasped.

“Mr. Mo, please take care of me in the future.”

Yuan Yiming’s posture was respectful and his tone was sincere, without any of the airs of a young master of the Yuan family.

Mo Yingchen nodded slightly as a response.

Yuan Haoyu nodded with satisfaction and looked at Mo Yingchen again with a warm smile.

“Brother Mo, I’ll leave Yiming to you.”

“If you need any help, just ask.”

“I, Yuan Haoyu, will never refuse.”

Yuan Haoyu once again made a promise that was very important.

“Don’t worry, Envoy Yuan.”

Mo Yingchen smiled slightly, confident and calm.

Yuan Haoyu looked at Xia Yunxi who was holding Mo Yingchen’s arm, with a strange look on his face.

“Then I won’t bother you little brother. See you tomorrow!”

With the departure of Yuan Haoyu and others, the atmosphere in the banquet hall changed completely.

The original tense feeling that was on the verge of a fight disappeared completely.

Instead, there was an indescribable…embarrassment.

And…depressed.

Zhao Qiankun fled like a stray dog.

The Li family even walked away in anger, clearly expressing their dissatisfaction.

This banquet was a complete failure.

Everyone had different thoughts and no longer had the same interest as before.

They couldn’t wait to find excuses to leave.

I was afraid that if I stayed for one more second, I would get into some trouble.

They gathered in groups of three or five, whispering about everything they had seen today.

“Yeah, it’s incredible. He was just a waste a year ago, but now he doesn’t even take Zhao Qiankun seriously.”

“What’s even more terrifying is that the envoy from the human race’s ancestral land was so polite to him and even took the initiative to show goodwill.”

“It seems that this Mo Yingchen is really going to rise.”

“I’m afraid the Xia family made a mistake this time.”

“It’s more than just a mistake, it’s a huge opportunity that I missed!”

“Who says it’s not true? If the Xia family hadn’t broken off the engagement, the ones climbing onto the ancestral land of the human race would probably be the Xia family.”

“What a pity. One wrong step leads to all the wrong steps.”

“I’m afraid the Xia family will regret it this time.”

The discussions were filled with sighs, lamentations, and a hint of gloating.

Xia You’s face turned pale, and he listened to all the discussions around him.

I was so angry that I wanted to tear everyone into pieces.

He stared at Mo Yingchen, his eyes filled with hatred.

It’s all because of this rubbish!

It’s all because of him!

That’s why the Xia family has fallen into such a situation!

I wish I could rush up right now and tear Mo Yingchen into pieces.

But she didn’t dare.

Yuan Haoyu’s attitude is already very clear.

……

Looking at Xia Yunxi who was still holding his arms.

Feel the soft touch and faint fragrance on my arm.

The corners of Mo Yingchen’s mouth slightly raised, revealing a playful smile.

“The person is about to die, why are you still holding him?”

The tone was playful and teasing.

Xia Yunxi’s delicate body trembled, as if she had just woken up from a dream.

Her pretty face instantly turned red, like a ripe apple, so red that it almost bled.

Only then did he realize that he was still holding Mo Yingchen’s arm tightly.

Besides, I’ve been holding you for so long.

Realizing his own gaffe, Xia Yunxi hurriedly let go of his hand.

As if he had been electrocuted, he quickly took a few steps back to distance himself from Mo Yingchen.

His movements were flustered, even a little embarrassed.

A faint blush appeared on her cold face, adding a bit of charm.

He lowered his head, not daring to look into Mo Yingchen’s eyes, and his voice was as soft as a mosquito.

“I…I didn’t mean it.”

Mo Yingchen looked at Xia Yunxi’s shy appearance and his heart couldn’t help but move.

Xia Yunxi, who had an expressionless, arrogant and cold face, actually showed such a delicate side at this moment?

“I know.”

“Miss Xia, I’m just scared.”

Upon hearing this, Xia Yunxi suddenly raised his head and looked at Mo Yingchen with complicated eyes.

“Who…who is scared?”

Mo Yingchen chuckled and stopped teasing her.

“Okay, everyone has left, let’s go too.”
