"Qing Xiao!"

    Luan Qing Xiao followed the palace guards into the Lanser Palace and saw Nie Zhen'er who she had been longing for, in the corridor.

    Nie Zhen'er was wearing a white long dress with golden Ashoka tree patterns embellished, pure and beautiful like an elf.

    After seeing Luan Qing Xiao, Nie Zhen'er's pale little face instantly flushed as she ran over to hug Luan Qing Xiao.

    The palace guard, who brought Luan Qing Xiao into the palace, tacitly walked to the side and turned his back to them to guard them.

    "I thought I would never see you again. I'm sorry, it’s my fault for being so timid, afraid to tell my father and mother… …" Nie Zhen'er raised her head and looked at Luan Qing Xiao, her clear almond eyes filled with tears.

    Luan Qing Xiao knew from the Queen the sadness and entanglement in Nie Zhen'er's heart, so how could she be willing to blame her? She couldn’t pamper her.

    "Zhen'er, you have lost weight." Luan Qing Xiao's thin white fingers rubbed Nie Zhen'er's cheek with distress flashing in her eyes.

    "I don't blame you, you should blame me. If I were excellent enough to see the King and Queen, it wouldn’t give you a chance to be sad. Zhen’er, don't blame yourself, I will feel heartache." Luan Qing Xiao landed a cherished soft kiss on the thin eyelids of Nie Zhen’er.

    Nie Zhen'er hugged Luan Qing Xiao's waist tightly and buried her head on her chest, "I never want to separate from you again."

    "Zhen’er, the Queen summoned me to tell me yesterday that as long as I get the top three in the Imperial Mecha Contest, I am guaranteed to win the Crown Heir’s Companion Selection. I will marry you under the witness of the whole empire."

    Nie Zhen'er raised her head in worry, "Can you do that?" According to the information Nie Zhen'er has read, Luan Qing Xiao did not even graduate from the First Military Academy because the mecha she made was defective and completely inoperable.

    "How about I give you my mecha?"

    Luan Qing Xiao smiled as she caressed Nie Zhen'er's shoulder-length hair, "Zhen'er should believe me, I will definitely win the Imperial Mecha Contest with the mecha I made."

    Luan Qing Xiao's smile was so confident that Nie Zhen'er couldn’t help but involuntarily nodded and the panic in her heart faded.

    Yes, Qing Xiao has never said something she couldn’t do. The things she promised will be successful and she should believe her.

    When the palace guard noticed someone approaching, he quickly coughed twice to remind Luan Qing Xiao and Nie Zhen'er.

    Nie Zhen'er reluctantly separated from Luan Qing Xiao. She took her hand, "The dinner banquet is about to begin, I'll bring you there."

    Luan Qing Xiao wrapped her hand inside her palm and then stretched out her fingers to intertwine their ten fingers. Then, she smiled at Nie Zhen'er: "I’ll have to hold onto my little cutie, lest not to be separated from you."

    Nie Zhen'er's fingertips turned numb as her ears became red, "Then you have to hold tight."

    The two walked hand in hand to the banquet palace, while the court guard followed behind, trying to block the view of the entangled hands of the two fingers. in case someone saw it and deliberately damaged the relationship between the Crown Heir and her future partner.

    Before the Crown Heir succeeded the throne, the Lanser Palace was filled with crises.

    Luan Qing Xiao and Nie Zhen'er knew how to be tactful. Right before entering the banquet palace, they lightly released their entangled fingers and walked in together.

    A huge crystal lamp hung from the high ceiling. The rotating rhombus crystals hanging under it emit a soft halo.

    The magnificent palace was filled with aristocratic men and women in formal outfits. They talked with faint polite smiles on their faces. Every lady straightened her back, looking elegant and noble, with luxurious clothes. Every gentleman had the appropriate smile on his face and seemed courteous.

    When Luan Qing Xiao and Nie Zhen'er walked to the door, everyone in the banquet hall glanced over.

    They were either looking at Nie Zhen'er curiously or scorchingly, and along the way, also check out who could walk in with the Imperial Crown Heir.

    "Cousin, you’re finally here." A dressed-up "splendid" girl walked in front of Nie Zhen'er, trying to pull Nie Zhen'er's hand, but was avoided by Nie Zhen'er.

    Nie Zhen'er’s expression was cold, "Nie Xian'er, don't come near me."

    Nie Xian'er aggrievedly pursed her mouth and shook her body. The two large emerald earrings on her ears swayed, pulling her ear-holes into a slender slit.

    Luan Qing Xiao was really afraid her earlobes would be torn apart from the earrings, spilling  blood all over the place. It didn't matter whether she was hurt or not, what should she do if she scared Zhen’er?

    "Cousin, why are you so indifferent to me? I just want to introduce my friend to you." Nie Xian'er said as unnoticeable tears filled up her slender eyes.

    If it weren't for the crystal lamp being too bright, reflecting the light in her tears, others wouldn’t easily see the aggrieved tears in her slit-like eyes.

    Luan Qing Xiao obviously felt Nie Zhen'er becoming cold and irritable after Nie Xian'er approached. She didn't know what happened between the two, but she knew that Nie Xian'er must have offended Nie Zhen'er.

    Her Zhen'er was that pure and kind. Who knows how many disgusting things this Nie Xian'er had done to make Zhen'er this averse to her?

    Luan Qing Xiao walked in front of Nie Zhen'er, blocked Nie Xian'er: "Zhen’er doesn't want to see you, yet you just had to come over. If you’re not a fool or not someone who can’t understand words, you’re hiding some schemes to harm people." Luan Qing Xiao smiled and asked, "I just don't know which kind you are?"
