"..." Edward had nothing more to say. He understood, and he felt ashamed of Ye Lang's actions, hoping that no one would know who did it.

If others found out, he would definitely not admit that he knew Ye Lang. It would be too embarrassing, and he would be despised and hated!

"You are absolutely shameless!!"

This is Edward's assessment, and also the assessment of many others. They have never seen anyone like this before, resorting to such methods to reduce their opponents!

In this continent, such competitions are generally conducted in a fair and square manner, and people tend to think about winning fairly and honestly during the competition.

Even the most despicable people, those who want to use underhanded tactics, would only do so on or off the field. They would never think of using underhanded tactics to prevent others from registering and denying them even the chance to participate!

"Shameless?! What's shameless about it? This is the most straightforward and direct way. If you had told me earlier, I guarantee that no one else would have been able to register, and you would have been the only one!" Ye Lang said nonchalantly. He liked to solve problems with the simplest means, and he wouldn't consider things like reputation or anything else.

"..." Edward didn't want to say anything more. He believed that Ye Lang would do this. The matter would be resolved, but he would definitely be criticized.

But what does it matter if someone criticizes me as long as I'm with Kasha?

Thinking of this, Edward seemed to understand Ye Lang's thoughts and even somewhat agreed with them, so he didn't care and went inside! He didn't want to stay with Ye Lang and let people discover their relationship, which would definitely lead to him being scolded as well. He wanted Ye Lang to bear this alone!

Brother, you've worked hard!

Because of this, Edward kept his distance from Ye Lang afterward, pretending not to know Ye Lang!

Sure enough, he'd stab his brother in the back for a woman...

Ye Lang only had this one comment on this, and although it was a bit of an exaggeration, it was pretty much the right way to put it!

At this moment, Ye Lang had no time to care about Edward. He was only thinking about dealing with all the people who wanted to come in, so that they would leave as soon as possible and not have the chance to participate in this Bride Selection Event.

Anyway, with Ye Lang here to help Edward, everyone else is bound to fail, and the outcome will be the same, so it's better to leave sooner!

Of course, this was Ye Lang's own idea!

"Everyone, I'm sorry, due to a small accident, today's event will be postponed. Please come again tomorrow!"

At this moment, a young girl came out and apologized to everyone. This girl was dressed very elegantly and should be a noble lady. She had a beauty that was no less than that of Miss Kasha.

Could it be that she's Miss Kasha's friend? Yes, that must be it!

Because of this, people began to leave—one person, ten people, a hundred people...

As more and more people left, naturally no one doubted the matter. They all assumed that the Bride Selection Event had been postponed to tomorrow and dispersed, spreading the news at the same time.

In a very short time, the whole city knew about it, that Miss Kasha's Bride Selection Event had been temporarily postponed to tomorrow due to an unexpected event!

However, no one knew that the marriage proposal was still being held in the City Lord's Mansion, and the people inside were unaware that the event had been postponed!

Why is this happening?

The reason is simple: the girl who just spoke was none other than Xiao Rui!

Since it was Xiao Rui who said it, it's equivalent to Ye Lang saying it. It's false information that Ye Lang wants to send all these people back, leaving only those inside, which would save a lot of trouble.

"Huh, where is everyone? What happened?" After that, someone came out and saw that the place where everyone had been gathered was now empty, with only a few people lying on the ground, their fates unknown, as well as Ye Lang and Xiao Rui. So the person asked Ye Lang, and could only ask Ye Lang.

"I don't know. I saw them say they weren't coming back today. They all went back, apparently because of those people on the ground." Ye Lang pointed to the few people on the ground.

"Oh, if they don't want to come, they don't have to. Anyway, everyone who's supposed to come has already arrived!" the man said nonchalantly. This time, it was said that everyone had a chance, but there were also "seed players" from within the organization.

In fact, the reason why everyone was given a chance was because of Miss Kasha's own wishes, not because the city lord wanted it. The city lord did not want to oppose his beloved daughter, so he agreed.

Meanwhile, the city lord also notified the candidates he had chosen for his son-in-law, so these people naturally didn't need to queue up and were already inside.

To be honest, it doesn't matter to the people outside whether they care about the city lord or anyone else, including Ye Lang and others, including Miss Kasha herself. All she needs is for Edward to appear.

If Edward doesn't show up, she'll make up an excuse that it's not a good match. After all, it's a marriage proposal, not a formality about getting married immediately!

"Then why are you still here? Aren't you going in?" The man looked at Ye Lang with some curiosity. It would be easy to explain if Ye Lang wasn't one of the participants; he might be waiting for someone or just watching the excitement.

But when he saw Ye Lang with the registration form, clearly someone who was supposed to be participating, why was he so relaxed here? And what was the meaning of the girl he was with?

"I'll go in later. Anyway, it's not certain that it will be my turn inside. Besides, I think everyone will be free now, so there's no need to rush!" Ye Lang waved his hand and said.

He was there to prevent others from turning back in, and also because he didn't want to wait in line inside, so he let the people inside finish everything first before going in himself.

In his words, since he's the last one, he can take his time!

"That's about it. There's almost no one left inside. I came out to check since no one was coming in and to call someone in!" the man said to Ye Lang, his brows slightly furrowed.

This Young Master is a bit strange. It seems he didn't come for the young lady. Does he have some other purpose?

"Oh, then let's go in!" Ye Lang replied, and then strolled in at a pace that was neither too fast nor too slow, very natural, so natural that no one could sense his nervousness at all.

Of course, many of the people inside remained calm; these were all nobles, and very distinguished ones at that!

"Ye Lang, what are you doing out there? Why are you taking so long?" Edward had already overcome one obstacle after another by this time, and only when he finally had some free time did he realize that Ye Lang had not yet appeared.

Sigh, all for a woman...
