Chapter 155 : I've Personally Confirmed It, He Didn't Cheat
Chapter 155 - I've Personally Confirmed It, He Didn't Cheat
Click.
The door opened. Zhou Yan, An Yao, and the others quickly craned their necks to look toward the bedroom door.
Over an hour had passed since Lin Fan and Long Yue had gone into the room to talk.
During that hour, the bedroom had been completely silent, without the slightest sound. No one knew what had happened inside, or how their conversation had gone.
Under the crowd's gaze, Lin Fan and Long Yue walked out of the bedroom together.
Lin Fan's expression was calm and composed, with an air of having everything under control.
Long Yue, in contrast, seemed a little unnatural. Her face was flushed and radiant, her hair slightly messy. Her pretty face held a trace of a young girl's shyness, yet she was also glowing, as if she had been bathed in a spring breeze.
“M-Miss, has Lin Fan already admitted to doing something to wrong you?!”
An Yao impatiently walked forward, her face full of anticipation.
Long Yue glanced affectionately at Lin Fan beside her. Her pretty face flushed red, her demeanor like that of a shy young girl who had just fallen in love.
“That's not what happened. I've personally confirmed it. He didn't cheat.”
An Yao: “…”
Zhou Yan / Lu Zhai: “…”
Huh?
Zhou Yan and Lu Zhai blinked blankly, their faces a picture of disbelief, their eyes darting back and forth between Lin Fan and Long Yue.
Sister-in-law just believed Lin Fan like that?
No arguing, no fighting... the cheating issue was resolved just like that?
They had been worried before, ready to break down the door and intervene if a heated argument or conflict broke out.
They never thought that the two of them would just go in to talk for over an hour, and the matter would be resolved so inexplicably…
Sister-in-law's face is flushed, her expression shy. I really don't know what Lin Fan did to her in there.
How is it that after coming out, she's been so completely won over, acting all sweet and docile…
I'll have to ask him for the secret some day!
Long Yue's sudden change in attitude also caught An Yao completely off guard.
This was completely different from how she had envisioned things unfolding!
Shouldn't Her Majesty have had a falling out with the Demon Sovereign after learning the truth? How is it that their relationship seems to have gotten even closer?!
What on earth happened in that room for over an hour!
“Miss, Lin Fan went behind your back to get a room with his maid!”
An Yao was unwilling to accept this result and once again urgently pointed out Lin Fan's crime.
Long Yue's delicate brows furrowed, and she said in a tone that allowed no room for doubt:
“An Yao, Lin Fan was just discussing business with Yingnü in the hotel. You misunderstood him.”
“Stop being unreasonable and apologize to him right now!”
“…Me? Apologize to him?”
An Yao pointed at herself in disbelief, then pointed at Lin Fan.
“That's right. Since you were the one who wrongly accused Lin Fan, you naturally have to admit your mistake and apologize.”
“…”
An Yao was silent, feeling as awful as if she had eaten shit.
She had wholeheartedly tried to expose the Demon Sovereign's true face for Her Majesty, but Her Majesty believed the Demon Sovereign instead of her!
What kind of love potion had the Demon Sovereign fed Her Majesty!
“Quick! Apologize to Lin Fan.”
Seeing that An Yao didn't move, Long Yue's delicate brows furrowed, and she urged her firmly.
When you do something wrong, you should sincerely apologize and admit your mistake, and even accept punishment if necessary. That is how it should be.
Considering that An Yao had truly just misunderstood Lin Fan and hadn't deliberately slandered him, she only made her apologize.
An Yao, looking aggrieved, bit her lip and unwillingly walked before Lin Fan, bowing slightly to apologize:
“Sorry…”
“Your voice is so quiet. This One can't hear you...”
Lin Fan gave a teasing smile and leaned his ear closer to An Yao.
An Yao gritted her teeth indignantly, her face flushing red. She had no choice but to unwillingly shout again:
“Sorry!”
The moment her voice fell, aggrieved tears welled up in her eyes.
She never thought that one day, she would have to bow her head and admit her mistake to the Demon Sovereign!
Hateful Demon Sovereign! To think he would use Her Majesty's name to force her to apologize!
An Yao turned her head to look at Long Yue, touched the storage ring on her finger, and hesitated.
Inside the storage ring were some immortal spirit fluids she had gotten from Xiao Yi last night, which could restore a certain amount of her spiritual energy and cultivation, to be used in case of emergency.
Last night, she would rather have walked the whole night than drink it.
One reason was that she was worried that if she drank it and restored her spiritual energy and cultivation, it would be noticed by the Demon Sovereign and the others.
The second was that there wasn't much of the spirit fluid, which was especially precious at a time like this. She wanted to save it for Her Majesty.
Originally, she had thought to use this opportunity to make Her Majesty break up with the Demon Sovereign, and then tell her about the arrival of the reinforcements from the Immortal Realm, at which point they would join forces to deal with the Demon Sovereign and his people.
But looking at it now, after being deceived by the Demon Sovereign for so long, Her Majesty's heart and mind were already on the side of the Demon Race…
“What's wrong, An Yao?”
Seeing An Yao staring at her, Long Yue asked curiously.
“It's nothing…”
An Yao shook her head, finally releasing her hand from her storage ring. With a dejected expression, she bowed slightly to Long Yue and requested:
“Miss, An Yao would like to go out for a walk…”
Now that Her Majesty trusts the Demon Sovereign so much, she couldn't be sure which side the Empress would take if they were to fight him…
To be safe, she ultimately decided to temporarily conceal the matter of the Immortal reinforcements' arrival and to hold on to the immortal spirit fluids.
“Go on. Come back early.”
Long Yue nodded lightly in agreement, a trace of regret also in her heart.
Did I just act too harshly toward An Yao…?
“Thank you, Miss.”
An Yao turned and walked toward the door. The moment she turned, her gaze became resolute, and the conviction in her heart to bring Her Majesty back grew even stronger.
The situation was urgent. She could not let Her Majesty stay here any longer, stay by the Demon Sovereign's side!
“Sigh…”
Watching An Yao's retreating back, Long Yue couldn't help but let out a troubled sigh.
An Yao had served by her side since she was a child. How could she not know her feelings and her loyalty? It would be no exaggeration to say she was the person she trusted most in the Immortal Realm.
But it seems her prejudice against the Demon Race is too deep. Right now, she's like a rebellious, disobedient child…
Lin Fan watched An Yao leave with a meaningful look, already having a vague guess as to what would happen soon.
“Lin Fan, sister-in-law, if there's nothing else, we'll get going too.”
Seeing that the situation seemed to have been satisfactorily resolved, Zhou Yan and Lu Zhai also got up to leave.
Lin Fan saw the two to the door and, just before they left, instructed:
“By the way, Yanzi, Ah Zhai, if you have nothing to do for the next few days, it's best not to go out.”
“Hmm? Why?”
Zhou Yan and Lu Zhai turned around, their faces full of confusion.
Lin Fan gave a mysterious smile and said in a half-joking, meaningful tone:
“There might be an earthquake in the next few days.”
“An earthquake?”
Zhou Yan couldn't help but laugh. He waved his hand, turned, and left, treating it as a joke.
Who knows how long it's been since the last earthquake in the Magic Capital. And even when there were, they were just small tremors. Nothing to worry about…
