Chapter 538: Somebody was About to Get Unlucky

Since there were secret guards by the fifth princess’s side protecting her, naturally it would not be as simple as merely carrying out his intentions with a few guards by his side. It was just that unless it was necessary, he was not willing for those secret guards to show themselves, that’s all. He could still kill the secret guards in one shot, couldn’t he? Naturally, doing this would be taking a very big risk. Unless it was absolutely necessary, he could not do so.

“Fifth Highness should also not forget that this is the capital of Nan Xia and not Ding Lin Country,” declared the fifth princess loudly, without any intention of giving way. Seeing the fifth princess’ majestic look without any anger in it, Ling Chuxi secretly nodded. This round little girl that loved to act coquettishly had grown up a lot in this period of time. How shocking and gratifying.

“Fifth Highness, Fifth Younger Sister, today’s encounter is a good fate. Why is there a need to spoil our harmony for such a small matter?” said Fu Chengxing, putting on a fake act of trying to smoothen things over. In his heart, he was dying to have both parties immediately come to blows and start fighting.

‘Fate, your mother!’ cursed the fifth princess in her heart. Today was truly the pinnacle of misfortunate. She had the feeling she was being forced to do something that she really did not want to do as though as had to chase a duck up a pedestal. What does fate have to do with this? She really wished she could just slash the opponents before her to death with a single blade.

The fifth princess coldly glared at Fu Chengxing and he suddenly felt his back turn cold. With an awkward smile, he fell silent.

The atmosphere became tense once again. Both parties were not willing to budge even an inch and the situation was on the verge of breaking out into a fight. The waiter and the shopkeeper standing aside both gulped nervously, their thighs and stomachs trembling. The shopkeeper was actually covered in tears in this heart. Today, would the restaurant be ruined? And tomorrow would he have to roll up a mat and go out into the streets to beg? The shopkeeper stared at Ling Chuxi with his pleading wide eyes, just short of rushing over to hug her thigh and wail and bawl to beg her to take action and help.

“Forget it. Let them have the room.” Ling Chuxi could feel the movements of the hidden guards around them in the dark and in addition to receiving those mournful looks from the shopkeeper, she was spurred on to finally open her mouth declare a truce.

“Master?” said the fifth princess, looking up at Ling Chuxi in surprise. The Ling Chuxi in her memory was not someone who was willing to take a loss. Could it be that she had changed in this past half year? This was not right!

“Those who have come from afar are our guests,” said Ling Chuxi with a dazzling, kind and sincere smile.

The rest of her group by her side were quiet and did not say a word, but their hearts all shuddered. Someone was about to get unlucky! Jiang Wuhen shivered even more so. Every time he saw Ling Chuxi smile like this, someone was sure to get unlucky. There were even quite a few times when the one who got unlucky was he, himself. So, seeing Ling Chuxi smile like this, Jiang Wuhen’s heart trembled.

“All right, then,” said the fifth princess with pursed lips. She waved her hand and commanded the troop of forbidden army guards and secret guards to stand down. With Ling Chuxi, Ling Yichen and Fu Chengyu here, who’d still need the protection of these other guards?

Si Nanchen took a look at Ling Chuxi as if in deep thought. He never thought that the fifth princess would actually be so obedient towards her. Observing in detail, only then did Si Nanchen notice that even Fu Chengyu and Ling Yichen seemed to look up to Ling Chuxi as their leader.

It seemed as though the news he had obtained beforehand still had holes in them. Si Nanchen nodded at Ling Chuxi and entered the private room without being courteous.

Seeing how his wishful calculations had fallen to naught, Fu Chengxing casually said a few courteous words and then went downstairs.

“Master, isn’t this giving them too much of an advantage? To actually dare act all arrogant in Nan Xia capital and treat it as if it were Ding Lin Country?” lamented the fifth princess melancholically. Without outsiders around, she was back to her usual self. Now this was the fifth princess Ling Chuxi was familiar with.

Ling Chuxi smiled with her brows raised, not saying a word.

Li Shaoqiu sighed and said unhappily, “Then let’s find another place to eat at.” It was just that what made him feel odd was that after he had said these words, not a single person made a move!

What kind of a situation was this?
