Butterfly Lovers (2)
"Where do you want to go? The banquet has already started, have you already forgotten?" Zhao Yarou suddenly appeared and said to Ye Lang and Li Yue.
Ye Lang seemed to realize at this moment that it was already evening, and Zhao Yarou's birthday party was not far away. Zhao Yarou's arrival now meant that he probably wouldn't have time to spend alone with Li Yue.
I was so close! If I had just a little more time, I would have succeeded. Zhao Yarou, couldn't you have come a little later?
If you asked Zhao Yarou this question, Zhao Yarou would definitely feel wronged. She had been working hard to get things done as quickly as possible.
"Has it started? Well then Ford Fox, let's talk about it later," Li Yue said, a slight blush appearing on her face. After all, if this were to be said, it would seem rather ambiguous.
"Alright!" What could Ye Lang say at this point? If he continued to force the issue, Li Yue would definitely not agree, so he could only wait until the banquet ended tonight to discuss it further.
To vent his dissatisfaction, Ye Lang said, "Zhao Yarou, you're such a nuisance, all you do is get in other people's way!"
Ye Lang's words were truly earth-shattering. Even though everyone was used to being surprised before, this sentence was really too shocking. Not only did he name the emperor by name, but he also said that the emperor was a maid.
This is unacceptable and shocking from any perspective!
Actually, given Ye Lang's personality, he wouldn't normally say that. He's always been very polite to outsiders, which is a well-known fact. Although everyone knows he's a bit absent-minded, he's still very proper in his manners.
Even if they are enemies, he will treat people very politely as long as they don't dislike him too much.
However, he didn't know why he spoke to Zhao Yarou like that. He didn't hate Zhao Yarou too much, and according to his usual habits, he should have been quite polite to Zhao Yarou.
However, his politeness often doesn't make people feel comfortable; instead, it makes them even angrier, as some past incidents have proven!
"You..." Zhao Yarou's body trembled as if she was about to explode. This was something no one had ever seen before. Even when she was angry, she was very calm, frighteningly calm.
Many years later, Li Yue learned that Zhao Yarou was really angry at that time and wanted to explode because Ye Lang had hit a nerve. However, she ultimately did not explode and held back.
"Let's go! Let's see if my birthday party is satisfactory!!" Zhao Yarou stopped trembling and said coldly. At the same time, when she saw Ye Lang and Li Yue holding hands, she didn't know why, but she squeezed in between them and separated them.
Perhaps because of what just happened, she felt that since Ye Lang wasn't making her comfortable, she wouldn't let him have an easy time either!
It's so strange, so incredibly strange!
At this moment, even Ye Lang noticed that Zhao Yarou was acting strangely, let alone the others. Everyone had the same question in their hearts, not understanding why Zhao Yarou could tolerate Ye Lang.
Yes, why can she tolerate it? Judging from her reaction just now, she should have been very angry. Given her personality, wouldn't anyone who offends her be killed immediately?
This all happened so strangely!
Could it be that she really has fallen for this Fox Tribe boy? This rumored "pretty boy"!!
If so, then this "pretty boy" is truly amazing. He not only captured the heart of Li Yue, this thousand-year-old iceberg, but he even managed to capture the heart of the little Empress, this pervert.
Of course, this was just what they thought in their hearts; they dared not say it out loud, as that would be practically suicide!
Zhao Yarou can tolerate Ye Lang's behavior, but that doesn't necessarily mean she can tolerate others. Of course, if you have the courage, you can try it, but whether you'll die is another matter.
And so, Zhao Yarou somewhat coldly led Ye Lang to inspect the venue. By then, some guests had already arrived and came over to congratulate Zhao Yarou.
However, Zhao Yarou was in a bad mood at the time, so everyone could only make a fool of themselves and go back dejectedly.
No one asked much about this phenomenon, after all, Zhao Yarou was unpredictable, and no one would care why she was angry; it was completely unnecessary.
It wasn't just the guests who were unlucky; the staff who organized the banquet were also punished. Anything they did that she didn't like was punished by her!
These staff members are innocent; they actually did a very good job, it's just that it didn't suit Zhao Yarou's taste. Of course, if she hadn't been in a bad mood, she wouldn't have been punished.
Fortunately, Zhao Yarou had some sense of propriety and didn't go too far, only giving her a small punishment—well, relatively speaking, it was indeed a small punishment.
"Your Majesty, you have many guests, so we'll go to the side and have some free time. You can attend to them."
Although everyone knew Zhao Yarou was in a bad mood, they felt it wouldn't be right not to say hello, so people still kept coming to congratulate Zhao Yarou.
This situation is likely to continue, possibly until the end of the banquet. Ye Lang naturally couldn't afford to waste time with Zhao Yarou, so he simply chose to leave.
Zhao Yarou was also helpless about this. As the emperor, she couldn't go too far. Besides, these people had come for her birthday banquet to congratulate her, so she had to deal with them a little.
As for Ye Lang, let him go play on the side for a while, and we'll find him later!
After Ye Lang got rid of Zhao Yarou, he sat with Li Yue in a corner, chatting, eating snacks, and drinking fragrant tea.
I must say, the food at the Imperial Palace is really good. The pastries are exquisite and delicious, and the fragrant tea is refreshing and pleasant, which makes people feel much better.
Ye Lang is in a very good mood right now. If some factors are removed, this place is also a good place for romance and to deepen his relationship with Li Yue.
"Pretty boy, you actually managed to get here?!"
As evening fell, the crowd grew larger, including many young nobles. Among them were still Li Yue's suitors, who had received word that Li Yue would be attending a banquet, so they had been searching for Li Yue on their way here.
However, Li Yue was in a corner with Ye Lang at the time, making her difficult to spot, so at first no one knew she had arrived.
It wasn't until later, when the Li Family arrived, that they learned Li Yue had already come to the Imperial Palace, and that she had come with Ye Lang. So they began searching the whole world for Li Yue, and finally found the two of them Xiao Xiao in a corner.
Seeing Ye Lang and the other man Xiao Xiao, they were consumed by jealousy again!
