Queueing for Numbers (3)

"... Debbie, do you really like him? Why are you always defending him?" Xi Er looked at Debbie for a while and asked with a frown.

It seems that Xi Er's ambiguous words before were just teasing Debbie, but now it seems different. She feels that Debbie might really have a chance to fall in love with Ye Lang, so she has started to worry.

Although she was surprised by Ye Lang's way of handling things and had some respect for him, it didn't mean she would agree to let her cousin marry Ye Lang. Ye Lang was just a commoner, and following him would only lead to hardship.

Although she understood that Ye Lang had potential, it was unknown when that potential would be realized. As a Lineage, they could invest in people with potential, and they wouldn't have any problem supporting such a person for a lifetime.

However, unless they are certain that Ye Lang can achieve great success and become very wealthy, they will not easily allow a clansman like Debbie to be with a commoner like Ye Lang.

While this was supposedly for the sake of the clan's happiness, it also shows that they still looked down on commoners like Ye Lang.

Debbie shook her head and said, "No, how could I possibly like him? He's so awful. But even if he is awful, we can't wrongly accuse him..."

First, let's clarify one point: Debbie doesn't like Ye Lang, she only has a slight liking for him, but more than that, she harbors resentment. If she had a choice, she would like to beat Ye Lang up.

However, although Debbie is impulsive and a bit carefree, she would never lie or wrong others because of personal preferences. On the contrary, she would help people clarify things.

"That's good... Alright, actually Debbie is right. This Ye Lang is different from what you all imagined. I can tell that he really doesn't care about me, he's not just pretending." Xi Er said to the curious young brides.

"Could there really be such a person?" The girl had been a little skeptical.

"Yes, at least that Ye Lang is!" Xi Er nodded and said.

Xi Er's affirmation made the brides around her begin to believe it, since Xi Er rarely lied and her words carried great weight.

"Sis, I saw him! Look, he seems to be queuing up for a number." At this moment, Debbie suddenly exclaimed, sounding a little excited.

"Where?" Xi Er asked.

"It's in the civilian area! Over there..." Debbie said, pointing in a direction.

The so-called commoners' area was where commoners received their tokens, and it was separate from the nobles' area. This not only indicated the difference in status between nobles and commoners, but also served as a form of social separation.

At this time, there were so many participants that if they were all crowded in one place, it would take a long time just to distribute the numbers.

At this time, the number of people in the commoner areas was slightly less than that of the nobles, or perhaps it should be said that it was much less.

This is not a special case, but a very normal situation. Although there are many ordinary people, not many of them actually participated.

Commoners who usually participate in this event are just there for fun and can only do menial tasks. The main participants are the nobles, since the nobles are much stronger, and most of the warriors and mages are among them.

There are some skilled commoners, but most commoners are too busy to participate, and they might offend some nobles if they did, so very few people participate.

However, although the number is much smaller, it is only relative. There are still a lot of ordinary people participating in the event, and they are not participating to win the bride's favor or to win the championship, but just to have fun.

The nobles would not object to the participation of commoners, because sometimes there are things that commoners need to do, which they, as nobles, would not do.

To put it simply, it involves letting ordinary people do the work, and they will give them tips or something, and the amount is quite substantial. This is one of the reasons why so many ordinary people participate.

Ye Lang entered this commoner area not because it was a commoner area, but simply because there were fewer people here, so he came here to queue. He felt that if he went to the noble area, he didn't know how long he would have to queue.

Sure enough, after Ye Lang got his number, he saw that when he arrived at the VIP area, the queue hadn't even finished processing the middle person yet.

Ye Lang secretly praised himself in his heart, thinking he was incredibly clever!

"Ye Lang..."

"Huh?" Ye Lang was a little confused. He looked around, trying to find the person who called him and whether anyone here knew him.

Ye Lang's glance immediately attracted the attention of a group of people, who focused their gazes on him. These gazes were varied, including those of doubt, surprise, and disdain...

The reason why so many eyes were on Ye Lang was actually because of one thing: the person who just called Ye Lang was Debbie. As one of the people who were the focus of everyone's attention, Debbie's actions were bound to cause some chain reactions.

Ye Lang did not look at the platform at this moment. After looking around, he began to look at his number cards again. He felt that he needed to study these number cards.

"Here, here!! Above..." Debbie continued to call out when she saw Ye Lang like this. She didn't know anything about being reserved; she only knew that she had to do what she was supposed to do.

If it doesn't work, then keep trying!

"Ah, it's you, Abby!" Ye Lang looked up and immediately recognized Debbie in her wedding dress. He didn't doubt Debbie at all because Debbie was wearing a wedding dress.

In Ye Lang's eyes, it doesn't matter what clothes others wear; he doesn't bother to remember what they wear.

"I've told you so many times, my name is Debbie! Stop talking now, come up here, I want to talk to you." Debbie glared at Ye Lang. She seemed to react much less to Ye Lang her by the wrong name; before, she wouldn't have just glared at him.

At this moment, the people who saw this scene were speechless. They didn't seem to have expected that Debbie would call Ye Lang public, wanting him to come up and talk to her.

What is their relationship?

At this moment, many people want to know the answer!

Before they could even register their astonishment, Ye Lang's next words left them gaping even wider...

"I'm not going up! I don't want to talk to you!" Ye Lang shook his head and rejected Debbie's suggestion.
