Yuan Yongyi's smiling face froze, and he turned his head stiffly, only to see Duan Chu's quiet eyes flashing with surprise, wishing he could cover his eyes.It's really not easy for him to be friends with this noble Ninth Highness who doesn't turn his head for so many years.

Yu Shengchi was also momentarily stunned. With such an introduction, how could he have the illusion that he is an outsider.But after all, he has a great mind. This younger brother is nearly 20 years younger than him, and he still understands his personality. He obviously wants to show that he values ​​Duan Chu.

"Duan Chu, hello!" Yu Shengchi smiled like a spring breeze. Not only did he lose the previous prince's aloof look down, but his expression became very kind, as if he was looking at his younger brother and friend, full of joy.

"Shengze, you didn't tell me before that you have such a new friend. Otherwise, I would have prepared a present when we met last time." Yu Shengchi looked at his younger brother and said with a smile, showing the caring appearance of a good brother.

Yu Shengze looked at Yu Shengchi with a sullen face, and quickly replied: "You only came to Ibiza knowing that, even if you prepared a gift for Duan Chu, the Royal Amethyst Beast can't give it to you!"

Yu Shengchi's smiling face couldn't hold back anymore.

Yuan Yongyi had already laughed out loud, even Zeng Lang's murderous eyes, the captain of the first prince's guard, could not stop him from laughing.

Duan Chu also burst into an uncontrollable smile, but unlike Yuan Yongyi, he had to lower his eyes and suppress the smile with difficulty.

"Does Your Highness the Ninth Prince actually know Duan Chu?" Duan Wenyu smiled, looking at Duan Chu with even more loving eyes.

Duan Chu remained calm, while Yu Shengze nodded affirmatively at Duan Wenyu, but did not reply.

Duan Wenyu didn't mind Yu Shengze's silence at all. In fact, the Ninth Prince's taciturnity was as famous as his amazing talent.The conversation with the First Prince just now was shocking enough, it would be better for the Ninth Prince not to speak.

Ever since Duan Wenyu stepped forward, Meng Jiantong had been keeping his eyes on Duan Chu. Under his calm face, there were stormy waves of ups and downs in his heart.

Is Duan Chu actually a contractor, or a friend recognized by the Ninth Prince?

Even Meng Jiantong, who was determined, was shocked by this sudden discovery.In particular, he knew clearly that this matter had to be concealed. Once Meng Jiayi knew about it, today's engagement banquet would be wild, not to mention that Meng's family offended Duan's family, and he would be greatly ashamed in front of the royal family and the military.

But even if he escaped today, he couldn't escape the future.How could the Duan family hide a contractor.Whenever there is a contractor for Xungui, most of them are matched by excellent fighters.Thinking of this, Meng Jiantong's face twisted. Contractors with D-level mental strength are the most suitable.Obviously, the Duan family must have deliberately concealed this matter, not wanting Duan Chu to marry Meng Jiayi.Relying on the backing of level [-] fighters, she was confident, so she deliberately took Duan Yaqing, a lowly illegitimate daughter, into marriage with the Meng family.

Thinking of this, Meng Jiantong only felt a sweetness in his throat, and almost spat out a mouthful of blood.He has never suffered such a big loss since he was promoted to the seventh-level general.The Duan family, as long as they endure today, he will never let it go!

Duan Wenchang still had a simple and honest smile on his face. He glanced at Meng Jiantong who had been staring at Duan Chu, stepped forward, and softly reminded Duan Wenyu, "Second brother, let's invite your two Highnesses in, the banquet is about to begin. gone."

Duan Wenyu understood, Yu Shengchi was a little embarrassed by his younger brother's ruthless words, and he had to put on the posture of the eldest prince. He felt it was hard work, when he heard it, he hit his heart and walked away, regardless of whether his younger brother was following him. Still pulling his new friend away.

"Duan Chu, let's go!" Yuan Yongyi called.

Duan Chu bent his lips, glanced at Duan Yaqing, who had a distorted face, and Meng Jiayi, who was staring at him blankly, and withdrew his gaze indifferently, and was about to follow when something lightly pressed his shoulder.

"do not worry."

Yu Shengze's deep voice pierced through the eardrums, and then Duan Chu felt his shoulders loosen. The man had already retracted his hand, waiting for him to join him.

Duan Chu's heart moved, and suddenly he knew the reason for Yu Shengze's series of words and actions since the meeting, he smiled at him, put aside his previous worries, and walked steadily by his side.

Looking at Duan Chu who was walking almost parallel with the Ninth Prince, Duan Yaqing couldn't stand up.A pact with the Ninth Prince?If Duan Chu wants to take revenge on her, he can easily make her life worse than death.He didn't even need to do or order him personally, there were many people who wanted to please the contractors, just like the servants who were under her guidance to crowd out and assassinate Duan Chu.She thought that Duan Chu would be completely trampled into the muddy pit since then, but she didn't think that it was she herself who could never stand up again?

"Yaqing, aren't you tired, let Jiayi accompany you to rest first?" Bei Jinglan's gentle suggestion came to her ears.

"Mom!" Duan Yaqing woke up suddenly, only then did she realize that the most urgent thing for her now is to resolve this marriage contract with no future at all.She turned her eyes to Meng Jiayi, and happened to glance over Meng Jiantong who was not far away, subconsciously looked carefully, and saw Meng Jiantong explaining something to the guards around him, and could vaguely hear something about the contractor.

Duan Yaqing couldn't help thinking, and immediately leaned close to Meng Jiayi's ear, and said softly: "Jiayi, I'm really tired, you can stay with me for a while, just in time, I have something to talk to you about."

Meng Jiayi finally came back to his senses, saw Duan Yaqing snuggled up in his arms, and suddenly remembered Duan Chu's indifferent eyes when he looked over, and stretched out his hand to push him away.But Bei Jinglan, a senior pharmacist, was not far away, and the two princes and Ibiza's military leaders came to congratulate them on their engagement, and Meng Jiayi's hand took advantage of Duan Yaqing's arms.

"Well, let's go. I just want to talk to you too."

Meng Jiayi said goodbye to Bei Jinglan respectfully, and half supported Duan Yaqing to leave.

Although they are the protagonists of today's engagement, at this time, the host family and the guests are surrounded by the two princes, and they are all focused on introducing the children of the family that they are proud of.For a while, except for Duan Zhixiu, Duan Yayan and Meng Jiayi's parents, no one noticed that the two newcomers were not in the hall.

Duan Yaqing and Meng Jiayi had their own thoughts, and they didn't want their conversation to be discovered, so they went back to Duan Yaqing's own room.

"Yaqing." Meng Jiayi was the first to say: "You believe me, I only love you!"

Duan Yaqing was taken aback, she had heard similar confessions several times, and Meng Jiayi was indeed gentle and considerate to her.But soon, she realized what Meng Jiayi wanted to say, her heart turned cold, and a mixed expression of emotion and shame immediately appeared on her face, and she hesitated and said in embarrassment: "I know, but, but I can't marry you ,I……"

Duan Yaqing looked desperate, but before she finished speaking, Meng Jiayi grabbed her arm and shouted excitedly: "What nonsense are you talking about, today is our engagement day!"

He thought that Duan Yaqing knew that he was angry, and with an expression of being wronged, he said righteously: "If you mind Duan Chu, I have already said that I only love you. Just seeing how close he is to His Highness Jiu, I wanted to use him to get closer to His Highness the Ninth Prince. I was afraid that you would be careless, so I made you believe me, how could you say you won't marry me!"

Duan Yaqing couldn't distinguish Meng Jiayi's thoughts for a while.She also likes Meng Jiayi, but she enjoys the pleasure of being able to deal a heavy blow to Duan Chu after snatching Meng Jiayi, and the prospect of returning to Capital Star after getting married.Thinking of this, Duan Yaqing made up her mind and shook her head aggrieved.

"I love you too, and it's because I love you that I can't marry you." Seeing Meng Jiayi's bewildered expression on Meng Jiayi's face and opening his mouth to speak, Duan Yaqing was afraid of delaying any further, and made a thousand plans in one breath. The words of a hundred times are all excuses: "Duan Chu is now a contractor! As long as you match with him, you don't have to stop at level six like my father. I can't be so selfish and only care about myself!"

Meng Jiayi was dumbfounded when he heard the "contractor", looked at Duan Yaqing in disbelief, his handsome face was distorted, his eyes were full of madness, he grabbed Duan Yaqing's arm and squeezed it tightly, roaring loudly: "No! It's possible! Duan Chu has already passed, how could he be a contractor!"

While Meng Jiayi told himself that this was impossible, he had to believe it.After all, it is impossible for Duan Yaqing to spread such a lie that can be exposed in one go.Thinking that he actually has an admirer of the covenanter, Meng Jiayi wished he could drag Duan Chu to check the matching degree now, but soon, he realized that something was wrong.He is about to get engaged, how could Duan Chu be his side lord as a contractor, Duan Chu agrees, the contractor guild can deprive him of his status as a contractor.

"Why did you just say now, you did it on purpose, right?" Meng Jiayi grabbed Duan Yaqing and shook her for a while, wanting to kill her directly: "Do you know that the two princes are here, and there are so many military bosses and Honorable Ibiza, cancel the engagement at this time..."

Duan Yaqing was shaken to the point of nausea, Meng Jiayi's ferocious face was magnified, and the last bit of emotion dissipated, she didn't dare to tear her face directly, she spit it out without hesitation, sprayed the acid water on Meng Jiayi's face, and completely Made him stop.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't do it on purpose." Duan Yaqing apologized loudly, and handed over a towel from the side.

Meng Jiayi threw away the towel in his hand with disgust on his face, and asked coldly, "Why did you say it now?"

Duan Yaqing's tears fell down, and she cried very sadly: "I only found out last night, Duan Chu has been hiding it all the time, if you don't believe me, ask him yourself." Without waiting for Meng Jiayi to ask, she confessed again : "I love you. Seeing that we will get engaged the next day, Duan Chu suddenly revealed his identity as the contractor. I, I couldn't bear you, and cried all night. Then I thought, anyway, the guests are invited, It's better to tell you in person, it's the same."

Meng Jiayi turned around impatiently, why Duan Chu was exposed only yesterday, even if he has complaints, there is no need to stay out of the way completely, if he and Duan Yaqing are engaged, the two of them will be completely impossible.

"Then what should we do now?" Meng Jiayi clenched his hands into fists, he instinctively felt that maybe this was the test Duan Chu gave him?

Hatred and sarcasm flashed in Duan Yaqing's eyes, maintaining a sad expression, she said softly: "If you cancel the engagement now..." She saw Meng Jiayi shaking her head violently, her figure shook, and she lowered her head: "If you find Duan Chu immediately and explain that you and I are just a fake engagement, I think Duan Chu will definitely not guess that I told you the truth, he will be moved. As a contractor, as long as he is willing to choose you, our marriage contract will be decided by you." The two companies cancel together, although it will still have an impact..."

"Okay!" Meng Jiayi's eyes lit up, he didn't care about Duan Yaqing's weak and helpless appearance, he turned around and wanted to leave with all his heart, when he reached the door, he paused again, turned around and asked hesitantly: "What if he has been with His Highness Ninth Prince and the others all this time?" Together?"

"It's okay, I'll explain tonight!" Duan Yaqing knelt on the ground with a face of despair, covered her eyes and never looked at Meng Jiayi again.

Meng Jiayi finally felt a little guilty, "I'm sorry, I love you, but you know, this is my only chance to get a contractor. From now on, no, I mean if you are willing to wait, just like Ms. Bei ..."

"Get out! Get out!" Duan Yaqing jumped up directly, rushed to Meng Jiayi, and pushed him out of the door like crazy, trembling all over.She never thought that the man she chose would be so shameless.In her life, if it wasn't for her status as an illegitimate daughter, how could she have been stared at since she was a child, and why would she need to wrong herself like this.

Seeing her so excited, Meng Jiayi couldn't help feeling more guilty, and he also thought of Duan Zhixiu, who was exiled because of Bei Jinglan, and his sad situation at level six, and he completely stopped planning to be an underground lover. Without further ado, he turned his head and left.

Watching his figure disappear in the corridor, Duan Yaqing couldn't help crying, no longer acting, but mourning for herself.

After crying for an unknown amount of time, Bei Jinglan suddenly pushed the door open and said angrily, "Why are you crying, I ask you, did you record it?"

Duan Yaqing wiped away tears, looked at the camcorder that was still on, and nodded.Sure enough, my mother was right.This man shouldn't have been counted on.

Bei Jinglan leaned forward and whispered the plan in her heart, Duan Yaqing was stunned, then laughed.

"Mom, when I saw it, how could Duan Chu, the contractor, have the face to befriend His Highness the Ninth Prince? Even if Meng Jiayi got him, so what? He would lose face in front of His Highness the Ninth Prince, and how could he have the face to stay in the military..."

With a loud "bang", the door was slammed open, and Meng Jiayi rushed in with fire-breathing eyes, pointed at Bei Jinglan's mother and son with stiff smiles on their faces, and gasped hard.

"So, are they all acting?" Meng Jiayi yelled, "Okay, your Duan family dares to plot against me like this, so annul the engagement!"

After speaking, he disappeared at the door like a whirlwind.
