Love Story (1)

If Ye Lang could consider this point, he would definitely choose to go directly to the Ye Residence. But would he consider this factor? Perhaps. Maybe he would.

In any case, the next day, everyone received a message, or rather, some well-informed people received the message in the middle of the night.

This was news that surprised many people, and also shocked and excited most of them. The news was that Ye Lang had appeared in the imperial city.

In the current imperial city, you can see people gathered together discussing Ye Lang everywhere, just like the conversation below, which can be found in countless corners.

"Do you know that Thirteenth Young Master is back!" one of them said excitedly. This excitement seemed to stem not only from gossip, but also from their desire to see Ye Lang return.

Ye Lang's popularity in this Soaring Sky Imperial City is extraordinary. Countless people want him to return, but because of Zhao Yarou, they know it's impossible.

Because it was something impossible, everyone was even more excited, and now that Ye Lang had suddenly returned, how could they not be excited?

"We already knew that. I also know that he arrived a long time ago and participated in the previous Hunting Competition," one person said. It seems that news of Ye Lang has already spread throughout the city, and many people know about Ye Lang's activities here.

"Do you know what identity Thirteenth Young Master is using here?" someone asked arrogantly, thinking that no one else would know the answer to his question. But he was wrong. At this moment, everyone knew.

"I know, it seems to be a Fox Tribe. The name is a bit of a mouthful, something like Ford Fox. I thought it was from the Fox Family before, but I never expected it to be Thirteenth Young Master in disguise."

"No wonder that Ford Fox was so powerful back then, directly kicking Li Yan out of the Wind Flower Snow Moon Tower. It turns out it was the Thirteenth Young Master who personally intervened. That bastard Li Yan is a real scoundrel. He dared to touch the Thirteenth Young Master's things when he wasn't around. He deserved it!" someone said through gritted teeth. They were all indignant about Li Yan's misappropriation of Ye Lang's property.

Perhaps for this reason, Li Yan's popularity in Soaring Sky Imperial City plummeted during this period, and many people openly or secretly ostracized Li Yan.

Li Yan was so angry about this result that he gritted his teeth. Like many others, he never expected that Ye Lang would have such a high reputation among the people of Soaring Sky Imperial City and be loved by so many people.

"Yeah, he deserved it. He thought that just because his Li Family is in power now, he could act with impunity. He actually dared to invade Thirteenth Young Master's 'Wind Flower Snow Moon Tower'! Ah, I really miss the Wind Flower Snow Moon Tower's back then. How many talented women and beauties there were back then... Liu Feiyan... she's even in Ye City now..."

"Speaking of Ye City, it's really nice. I went there last time, and you would never guess what Liu Feiyan looks like now..."

"What, what..." When a man talks about this, he always tries to find out more, no matter how big the topic is.

"Ahem, you might not know this, but I went to a lot of trouble to find out this. It might be a good thing for us. In the end, Thirteenth Young Master might really stay here." Someone spoke up as soon as they saw the topic had gone off track, trying to bring it back on track.

As a gossip enthusiast, one should play their part and keep the gossip going!

"What good news? You mean the matter of Thirteenth Young Master pursuing Miss Li Yue? We all know about it, but we also know that Thirteenth Young Master has ulterior motives... Speaking of which, Thirteenth Young Master really has no conscience this time, actually deceiving Miss Li Yue's feelings..."

The gossips are powerful; they even found out about this. If Li Yue knew, she would definitely hate Ye Lang. However, she already hates him to the core.

Regarding this news, everyone felt that if it were true, it wouldn't be bad. As long as Thirteenth Young Master treats Li Yue well, it wouldn't matter if he lied to her a little. The two of them are actually quite well-matched.

"That's not it. Even if Miss Li Yue can be with Thirteenth Young Master, so what? Can she change the Empress's decision? Don't forget, what is the main reason why Thirteenth Young Master can't come back?"

"It's because of the current Empress..." The answer immediately came to everyone's mind. Everyone knew the answer, but they only noticed the problem after being reminded.

Indeed, if it were just Li Yue and Ye Lang together, the result would still be the same; Ye Lang would still not come back here.

"What could it be that could make Thirteenth Young Master stay? Who could change Her Empress Empress's mind? You know, she's no ordinary person..."

"No one can change Her Empress Empress's mind!" The man began to keep her in suspense, not continuing his sentence.

"Tch..." someone hissed, clearly disdainful of the person who spoke.

"Ahem, because this matter concerns the Empress!!"

"What? You're saying this matter is related to that little Empress?"

"That's right! It's related to her, and no one will believe it if I tell you!" The man took the opportunity to keep everyone in suspense again, but this time he got the response he wanted.

"What?" Almost everyone was curious and wanted to know what was going on.

"Let me tell you, you need to be careful about this. Don't make a big fuss about it, or the Empress will punish you severely. You all know how she can do this, don't you want to suffer the consequences?"

"No!" Everyone shook their heads.

"Actually, this matter is related to the Empress. On the surface, the relationship between the Empress and the Thirteenth Young Master is not simply one of hostility; there seems to be a forgotten past."

"What past events?"

"I don't know, this matter is a bit uncertain. I only know a little from the Little Empress's attitude towards the Thirteenth Young Master. Only by asking the person involved would I know. However, I believe the Thirteenth Young Master has already forgotten..."

"..."

As expected of the Thirteenth Young Master, he can forget this. This also means that it is basically impossible for him to know what happened here. How could the Little Empress possibly tell anyone about this?

"As you all know, both the Thirteenth Young Master and the Little Empress participated in that hunt. A few days after the hunt began, they bumped into each other. It wasn't intentional; it was just a coincidence, as those around them have confirmed. If they had bumped into each other, even if a war hadn't broken out, they wouldn't have been able to get along. And the Thirteenth Young Master also intended to drive the Little Empress away!"
