Quick Wear: When a Delicate Beauty Becomes Cannon Fodder

The Little Princess in the Palace (15)

  After a moment of stalemate, Qi Guanyu pulled off the jade pendant from his waist and handed it to her.

  "I won't bother you anymore. This is my personal belonging. If you are in trouble, you can bring this to the Regent's Palace and find me. I will definitely help you."

  Seeing that she didn't take it, he put it on the table and forced her to accept it.

  Ruan Ruan didn't want it, so she grabbed the thing and was about to return it to him, but he suddenly left and she couldn't catch up with him.

  But she didn't think about chasing him.

  When Yue He came back and saw the jade pendant in her hand, she said directly.

  "Girl, I'm afraid it's a trick."

  Ruan Ruan nodded. She certainly didn't think that he would be someone who would help others without expecting anything in return.

  She handed the jade pendant in her hand to Yuehe without thinking of using it.

  "You take care of it."

  ...

  Prime Minister's Mansion.

  Yue He lowered her head and reported what had just happened word by word. She held the jade pendant left by Qi Guanyu in both hands and handed it to her master.

  Rong Yan took it nonchalantly, with an inexplicable expression on his face.

  The finest mutton-fat jade is used to outline a simple pattern with a few strokes, and the ink-blue tassels hang neatly, dense and full.

  There was a small word engraved on the lower corner of the round jade, and Rong Yan touched it.

  The next second, he suddenly let go.

  The sound of jade colliding was quite noticeable in the quiet night. Yue He paused and continued to reconstruct the situation at that time sentence by sentence.

  On the other side, Ruan Ruan was really conflicted.

  She poked at the system, seeking outside help.

  "System, are you there?"  

  "Yes, yes!!"

  The system learned its lesson and was on standby at all times, responding immediately upon hearing the host's call.

  It waited for the follow-up, but the other side didn't say anything for a long time.

  "Host, what's wrong?"

  "I have a question that I can't figure out, but it feels weird to ask"

  The system's eyes lit up a little. "Go ahead and tell me. I'm very useful. Just tell me and I can definitely help you!"

  Ruan Ruan was still a little hesitant, but she was indeed persuaded.

  She spoke slowly, still organizing her words, "...You should remember what happened in the last plane. The four of them and Rong Yan, although some of them did excessive things, I actually didn't repel them as much as I thought. Especially in this plane, after I thought about it carefully, I found that I felt quite comfortable when I was with Rong Yan. So... I thought I was a playboy, and I couldn't resist anyone who looked good..."

  Seeing the host saying seriously that he was a playboy, the system wanted to laugh but held it back.

  It continued to listen with a stern face.

  "But it wasn't until I met Qi Guanyu today that I realized something was wrong. He's obviously very good-looking, but I just feel different about him. I feel weird when he gets close to me. He seems special to me. Could it be that I like him?"

  The system's expression began to change.

  "But he approached me with a purpose, and I didn't really want to deal with him. It's so annoying."

  "No, no, no, host, you are wrong. How could you possibly like him?" The system was anxious. If she really thought she liked Qi Guanyu for this, then what about the male protagonist? !

  "Feeling different doesn't necessarily mean you like him. He's not as good-looking as the others before him, so it's normal for you to dislike him. This is not called liking, this is called hating."

  "The male lead is good-looking. You'll know if you like him after you get to know him."

  "So... I'm still a playboy. I heard that this is not a good thing." Ruan Ruan lowered her head with a frown.

  The system now knew what the problem was. "What do you mean by fickle? You just have more admirers. If they actively approach you, there's nothing you can do about it."

  "But I didn't refuse..."
