Ai Jia didn't expect that he would be so charming in person.
After sizing him up, Ai Jia spoke. "Hello."
"Hello," replied Mu Yeli politely.
"You're married. I had no idea," Ai Jia said.
"Yes, it was quite sudden," said Mu Yeli.
"Your wife…" she began.
"She should also be here."
"Is that so… I can't help but feel," she said with a laugh, "she may not be worthy of you."
When the third princess said this bluntly, a flicker passed across Mu Yeli's eyes. He looked at her steadily. "I don't think so."
"No, I can really understand this feeling, don't you feel it too? You and I, we're the same kind of people. It's tough to find someone on the same level as us. After all, it's lonely at the top."
Mu Yeli chuckled, but there was no hint of amusement in his eyes. He seemed aloof.
"Perhaps Miss Third is standing too high."
With that, Mu Yeli brushed past her.
The third princess watched him, a small feeling of unease in her heart.
Ignoring her, he walked straight into the event.
