The Anarchic Consort [ Chapter 1 - 199 ]

Chapter 106: An Appearance That Astonished People

Early morning. Capital city. The peddlers always would come out earlier than the pedestrians.

The grannies with bent lower backs carried hot and steaming soft bean curd. One bowl sold for a twentieth of a tael, cheap and delicious, making a person click their tongue.

Each day, quite a few people wanted to leave the city, that’s why a position close to the city gates was always much more lively than other areas.

Wei Wei didn’t dress conspicuously at all. Standing among the line of people, maybe no one would be able to recognize her.

If she didn’t lift up her head, no one would take a second look at her.

She was just like people who normally wanted to leave the city. First, she sat by granny’s and asked for a bowl of soft bean curd, while listening to the news all around her.

“Did you guys know, Third Prince seems to be catching a person.”

“Catching a person? Who?”

“I heard that it’s that Helian family’s miss who lost her qi.”

“What’s Third Prince catching her for? Should be unlikely that she’s done something wrong, and offended His Highness.”

“Who knows. However, afterwards, Third Prince again had his people withdraw, saying he’s not looking for her anymore. He probably thinks it’s a waste of time. It’s beneath him to be serious about this kind of girl.”

Not catching her?

Wei Wei’s hand that was used to eat bean curd paused, the light in her eyes shined, carefully recollecting. Third Prince indeed should pull back. Such a huge ruckus, ordering a search through each and every one of White Academy’s courtyards. He didn’t even let the Superior Compound off. Forcibly having all of those aristocratic young masters and young ladies drenched in rain for an entire night.

The four great clans would certainly complain against him. After all, those were all children they loved dearly. Even if it could be said that nobody asked those young ladies to come out to stand in a circle and watch, however, if it weren’t for Third Prince, they also wouldn’t have encountered the beast tide.

Even if Retired Emperor doted upon Third Prince in that way, he still wouldn’t allow that guy to continue recklessly.

Maybe it’s as everyone said and Third Prince suddenly woke up to the reality that putting so much effort into a good-for-nothing girl like her, really was not worth it?

Wei Wei smiled mockingly, yet didn’t make any changes to her plan whatsoever.

Even if Third Prince really didn’t plan to catch her anymore, she still could not lessen her own vigilance.

Just in case right now, that guy could even be purposefully manufacturing this false facade precisely in order to have her lose her guard.

Then wouldn’t it be disastrous?

An astute light quickly streaked within the depths of Wei Wei’s eyes as she finished eating the last spoonful of soft bean curd, seemingly as if she simply didn’t hear those people’s words just now.

It’s just that, as she was passing through, everyone couldn’t help but hold their breaths. Within their eyes, besides a beautiful girl, there wasn’t a trace of anything else remaining. None of them sensed anything even when the soft bean curd in their hands spilled into the ground.

“A goddess……I saw a goddess……”

Consequently, on this day, the capital exploded. Many people said that they finally saw a goddess who was more beautiful than the capital’s most beautiful young lady, Helian Jiao Er.
