The Strange Grand Princess

Chapter 23

"Go leak this information to the First Prince!"

The young receptionist froze for a moment, then immediately replied, "Yes, I'll take care of it right away!"

She took another sip of wine and said leisurely, "Remember to make it seem accidental, not deliberate. I don't want the Second Prince coming to have a heart-to-heart with me, his aunt!"

The young receptionist's heart trembled. She felt as though she had accidentally become involved in some major event.

But with her status, she had no right to refuse.

So she immediately said, "Understood. I was never here today."

The Grand Princess nodded in satisfaction. She liked clever people like this.

They understood at a hint and did not ask unnecessary questions.

Very good!

It seemed this little receptionist could be cultivated a little.

The Grand Princess waved her hand. "You may leave!"

The receptionist bowed and departed.

She was a very clever person. Since she was going to inform the First Prince, she naturally had to give him time and an opportunity to react.

First, she needed to postpone Taishi Ming's one-on-one match until tomorrow or the day after. Otherwise, if she arranged one for him today and the kid got thoroughly beaten, what if he no longer wanted to play?

She had never considered the possibility that Taishi Ming, a mere support-type soul master, could win in a one-on-one battle.

Taishi Ming returned from the spectator stands to the main hall and waited for Snake Princess to come out.

However, the young receptionist approached him first. "Hello. I've already submitted the request, and the Soul Fighting Arena has made arrangements for you. However, due to your special circumstances, we need to carefully select your opponent."

"So I'm afraid it won't be possible today."

Taishi Ming frowned. "Then when will it be?"

The young receptionist said, "Tomorrow or the day after will be fine. Please leave an address. Once the arrangements are complete, I'll send someone to notify you in advance."

The Soul Fighting Arena was someone else's territory, so Taishi Ming had no other choice. He could only nod somewhat disappointedly. "Fine! Just come find me at Changlin Academy once it's arranged."

The young receptionist said, "Understood. I hope you enjoy yourself here."

With that, she stepped away.

At that moment, Snake Princess, Dai Zhirou, Bai Jingjing, Hanyu, and Lüping strode out in high spirits.

Seeing the receptionist who had just left, Bai Jingjing teased, "Well, well, our little husband from the Five Poisons is quite popular. He's barely arrived, and a young lady is already coming for him!"

Taishi Ming laughed. "Oh? Is our Little Three getting jealous of her husband?"

Bai Jingjing choked on her words.

Dai Zhirou, Hanyu, and Lüping snickered.

After all, every time they met, Bai Jingjing would verbally tease him, only to get teased in return every single time.

Meanwhile, Taishi Ming had already run to Snake Princess's side and taken her hand. "My wife is amazing. You suppressed two opponents all by yourself just now, laying the most solid foundation for victory!"

Dai Zhirou asked, "Who analyzed that for you?"

Taishi Ming snorted. "Why would that need analyzing? Your tactic was to use the special nature of my wife's martial soul and soul skills to suppress two people at once. Then Second Wife, Little Four, and Little Five only needed to hold back one person each. With the aerial advantage and no opponent left to deal with, Little Three could take out the two people my wife had suppressed in one fell swoop."

"That would turn the match into a five-versus-three situation!"

"Still, I didn't expect them to be so foolish. That leopard and little rabbit actually fell for Second Wife's trick."

Hearing this shameless little brat call her "Second Wife" over and over, Dai Zhirou walked over and knocked Taishi Ming on the head. "Stop calling me Second Wife! Otherwise, I'll knock your head full of bumps!"

Taishi Ming covered his head and glanced at Dai Zhirou's ample chest. "With how fierce you are, it'd be a shame not to call you Second Wife!"

After saying that, he instantly hid behind Snake Princess.

Dai Zhirou was so angry that her breathing became rapid.

It gave Taishi Ming quite an eyeful, and he sighed, "Ah, Second Wife—"

Dai Zhirou shot him a furious glare!

Taishi Ming immediately changed his tune. "Ahem, Zhirou! Let me tell you, only my wife is allowed to knock my head. If you do it again, you'll have to take responsibility for me."

Dai Zhirou suddenly smiled.

Taishi Ming immediately had a bad feeling and shrank back.

Unfortunately, with his current strength, he was completely no match for Dai Zhirou!

In a flash, Dai Zhirou appeared before Taishi Ming and raised her hand to smack him. "Is Zhirou something you can call me?"

Then Bai Jingjing, Hanyu, and Lüping seemed to have discovered something amusing.

One by one, they followed her example.

"Is Little Three something you can call me?"

"Is Xiao Si a name you can call?"

"Is Xiao Wu a name you can call?"

Then four lumps appeared on Taishi Ming's head.

"Hiss!"

The pain made Taishi Ming suck in a cold breath. Clutching his head, he looked thoroughly indignant. "Wife, your besties are bullying me!"

Snake Princess said, "Serves you right!"

Taishi Ming: ""

"Pfft!"

Dai Zhirou, Bai Jingjing, Hanyu, and Lüping immediately burst into laughter.

Looking at the four bumps on Taishi Ming's head, Dai Zhirou felt a slight pang of conscience. Why bother arguing with a little kid?

So she said, "All right, stop feeling wronged. We'll treat you to something delicious."

Taishi Ming thought, Damn it, are they really treating me like a child to be coaxed?

That only made him feel even more indignant. He snapped, "I want milk!"

The key was that as he said it, he had his face tilted up toward Dai Zhirou. From that angle, it looked no different from him staring at her chest while saying those words.

Then another lump appeared on his head.

Taishi Ming: ""

Why did they hit me again!

Was there no justice left in this world?!

You five little girls just wait. In another ten years, I'll show you what papapa means! I'll wash away today's humiliation with blood!

At the First Prince's residence, the First Prince smiled faintly upon hearing the report.

The young master-in-law of Snake Manor!

That little brat was worth making such a big fuss over?

Who was so bored? Or were they looking down on me?

Did they deliberately send me such information?

Still, that young master-in-law of Snake Manor was rather interesting. A mere support-type actually wanted to fight one-on-one in the Soul Fighting Arena.

But then again, Snake Manor really was fickle. Why had they gotten involved with the Second Prince again?

It seemed they needed to be taught a lesson.

"A Da!"

A big man not far away walked over. "Your Highness, what are your orders?"

"Isn't that Snake Princess from Snake Manor leading a team in matches at the Soul Fighting Arena?"

"Send a team over to remind Snake Manor that since they chose neutrality, they should remain properly neutral. Don't keep maintaining ties with both sides."

A Da said, "Understood, Your Highness. I'll send A San's team. Dealing with five rookies who haven't even graduated from the academy yet won't be a problem."

The First Prince said, "You decide whom to send. What I want is results!"

A Da said, "Yes. This subordinate will make the arrangements immediately."
