The Villain Forced Me to Eat Free Rice[MTL]

Chapter 23

The news that an anonymous person who had participated in the points competition for no more than three months had defeated the relatively famous Berke Star genius Zheng Ziang spread like wildfire. The forces behind the points competition were also investigating his background. Defeating Zheng Ziang was nothing to worry about, after all, Zheng Ziang was only a healer ranked in the top 500. But after they watched the specific process of the game, they were shocked and speechless. Such strength may only be possessed by the top few.

　　So even though the points of this guy named Xiao Jiang haven't even been ranked yet, he is already the uncrowned king in everyone's hearts, and his mental power level has always been talked about by everyone.

　　Jiang Ling's account was flooded with private messages, but he knew nothing about them because he hadn't logged into his account in the past two days. The royal feast was about to begin.

　　The media has done a lot of preparation for this banquet. It should be said that this time of year is the most important time for Berk and even the interstellar space. Hot news everywhere warms up for this banquet. There are even many gambling and guessing activities with questions about who the royal family has invited. Whether the nobles are invited or not even indirectly determines their status on Berk.

　　Today, the palace allowed reporters from famous media to enter, so a few hours before the banquet began, neatly dressed reporters with filming equipment began to stake out the palace. They felt honored to have been chosen, because it was very likely that if they could get close to any of the nobles, it would be a huge fortune, and there were even scandals about Omegas getting into high positions because of this.

　　The participants walked on the red carpet in elegant gowns to attend the banquet. Receiving an invitation from the royal family is an extremely honorable thing for all the nobles.

　　In addition to ministers and famous nobles on Berk, the steward in charge of the banquet also invited some well-known geniuses from Berk's First Academy, role models in various professions, in order to encourage high-quality talents to be loyal to the king.

　　Zheng Ziang also wore a suit that he had customized at a high price from a famous designer. He was handsome and had a romantic look, which attracted a lot of attention among the many middle-aged nobles.

　　Before arriving at the palace, he was still furious about the news on the forum. It turned out that the news that Zheng Ziang lost to an anonymous person who was not even on the leaderboard in the points competition was passed on to the Berk Star Therapist Forum. The fans who were proud of him could not accept this fact, and some even quit being fans and stepped back. They have a strong sense of collective honor, and it is difficult for them to tolerate the reputation of Berk Star being trampled on. Moreover, Zheng Ziang lost even though he deliberately proposed to increase the difficulty by one level. It is obvious that he failed to harm others and instead suffered misfortune.

　　Walking on the red carpet, Zheng Ziang also swept away the haze of being defeated by Jiang Ling. It didn't matter if he was strong, he could only have no future on the garbage planet, but he could represent the academy to attend the king's banquet. As for the fans on the forum, he didn't take them seriously now. When he was appreciated by His Majesty at the banquet, he would no longer have to manage those accounts. They were nothing more than a small reputation that didn't work.

　　Zheng Ziang's female companion is Han Wenwen from the Han family. She was able to come along thanks to him. In fact, if it weren't for the recommendation of the academy, neither of their families would have had the opportunity to appear at such a banquet.

　　Zheng Ziang didn't like Han Wenwen very much. Deep down, he even had the intention of making friends with other noble ladies.

　　The media were broadcasting live with equipment, and hundreds of millions of people in the live broadcast room were watching the live broadcast while eating melon seeds. After all, it was not often that one had the opportunity to see the scene of the royal palace.

　　"This Alpha is good-looking, and seems to be a talented therapist from the First Academy of Berk Star." Passersby saw Zheng Ziang entering the venue arm in arm with his female companion, with the high-definition camera shining on his face, and commented that it was rare for them to see such a young Alpha at the banquet.

　　"The female companions beside him also look very compatible with him. They are both children of the nobility and have nothing to do with us."

　　After everyone entered the venue, the monarch in a black suit slowly came in, pushing a wheelchair. The silver-white mask on his face made his face look even whiter, and his slender fingertips rested on the wheelchair. His temperament was mysterious and dark, as if there was a kind of incomplete beauty. No one had ever seen his true face. Everyone could only see from the few materials that this monarch of Berk was the least favored son of the old king, so there were not many records.

　　Although Chu Wenyu was sitting, his aura was far stronger than those who were standing, and those with lower mental strength could vaguely feel the pressure.

　　The camera in the live broadcast room had already been focused on the monarch. When the audience saw his deep pupils, they all took a deep breath in their hearts. They saw the monarch in person.

　　But soon, everyone's attention was drawn to the blond Alpha next to him, because when he turned his head, everyone saw his perfect profile. His high nose bridge seemed like it could slide down a slide, his lips were slightly curved in sexiness, and the dress he wore was extremely suitable, elegant and noble.

　　"Ahhh! I need all his information in one minute!"

　　"That's absolutely amazing! Brother, are you considering making your debut? He will become a star idol!"

　　"Wait, I found out that this person seems to be the legendary prince of Charles Star..."

　　They just heard vague rumors that Charles Star had an eldest prince, but because he had never appeared in public, unlike the genius from Saint Dan College who was on the hot search every other day, no one knew what he looked like.

　　"Ahhh, are all the good genes concentrated in the royal family? Why are all these princes so good-looking!"

　　"I feel like this eldest prince is the most handsome man I've ever seen! What? No mental strength? No problem, I'll take care of him!"

　　"Is this how good-looking people are treated?! I remember there should be some grudges between Charles Star and Burke Star."

　　Jiang Ling held Chu Wenyu's wheelchair, his brows furrowed, not too relaxed. Now as a qualified therapist, he could already sense something was wrong. He could clearly feel that Chu Wenyu's mental fluctuations were beginning to go in the wrong direction, but the other party might not have noticed it yet.

　　Chu Wenyu took a sip of champagne from her cherry red lips, and her lips were instantly moistened. Soon the steward announced the official start of the banquet. The nobles also began to walk around and talk with other nobles. When no one noticed, Chu Wenyu turned his back to the camera, with a hint of teasing in his eyes, turned the direction of the wine glass, pointed it at Jiang Ling, and then handed the champagne in his hand to him.

"Your lips are so dry. Are you thirsty?" He said in a low and lazy voice as he looked at his Alpha.

　　It can be seen that he was somewhat happy, especially when he saw the photographer taking a picture of him and Jiang Ling in the same frame. Alpha looked even better in his dress than that day.

　　Jiang Ling raised his eyebrows helplessly, knowing what villain meant. But such a taboo emotion could not be discovered by others, so Jiang Ling had to slightly turn his body to avoid the camera and took a sip from the shiny part of the cup where Chu Wenyu could see it.

　　Chu Wenyu could clearly see the movement of his Adam's apple, and the sparkling wine on his perfect lips. There was nothing else in his eyes, only Jiang Ling's figure. This could be said to be their first indirect kiss during his trial.

　　"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your hospitality." Jiang Ling put down his wine glass and curled his lips, not sure whether he was thanking the wine or something else.
