Chapter 491 - 478: Asserting Sovereignty
Qin Yun lazily asked, "So, what do you actually want to say?"
Little A said flatly, "Issue the task, Your Highness. Please find a way to deter Jingjing’s ambitions towards Pei Yan, Your Highness. Let her know that Pei Yan, Your Highness, is already taken, so she should put away those filthy thoughts of hers as soon as possible."
Qin Yun raised an eyebrow and asked, "Any way will do?"
Little A: "Yes, as long as you can complete the task."
"What about the reward?"
Qin Yun cared about this.
Little A replied, "The reward is thirty points; if you fail the task, thirty points will be deducted."
Qin Yun nodded, "Oh."
"Your Highness agreed?"
Little A was still a bit surprised, feeling that Qin Yun agreed so quickly it seemed like a trap, but Qin Yun just nodded calmly, "Agreed. Or should I wait for Jingjing to cling to Pei Yan every day?"
Little A: "Oh, Your Highness just wants to deal with a romantic rival, you don’t really care about the points."
Qin Yun said righteously, "You can’t say that, why not do something that kills two birds with one stone?"
Little A: "."
Little A disappeared, and Qin Yun took a sip of her fruit tea with great satisfaction.
She looked up and smiled at Pei Yan, "Thank you, Mr. Pei, for the fruit tea. It’s simply delicious."
Her bright eyes and white teeth lit up with a dazzling light when she smiled, making Pei Yan momentarily dazed.
Wang Li nodded along and said straightforwardly, "I always thought Mr. Pei was a very aloof person, I never expected Mr. Pei to be so considerate, even buying us drinks! My god, if any woman marries Mr. Pei in the future, she might have to slap herself for speaking too loudly."
Just as she finished speaking, Jingjing came over and chimed in, "Right, Mr. Pei is so wonderful, he will definitely be a great husband, I really envy his future wife."
Her tone was full of anticipation, her face brimming with admiration, anyone with eyes could see that Jingjing liked Pei Yan.
But Pei Yan quietly moved a little towards Qin Yun, explaining in a low voice, "You two have been playing all day, if you don’t replenish water soon you’ll get dehydrated."
Qin Yun laughed, hmm... replenish water.
"Thank you, Mr. Pei."
Wang Li giggled and turned to follow Xiao Hu to another activity, leaving only Qin Yun, Pei Yan, and Jingjing behind.
Qin Yun held her fruit tea and smiled lightly at Jingjing, "Doesn’t Jingjing like fruit tea?"
She looked at the green tea in Jingjing’s hand and squinted with a smile, indeed, people like to drink what they like, this saying wasn’t wrong at all.
Jingjing’s face stiffened.
Actually, this cup of tea was something she bought herself, originally she thought Pei Yan would buy it for her, but Pei Yan, who was always a gentleman, seemed to forget her existence and only bought two cups of fruit tea. To avoid embarrassment, she had to buy it herself.
Qin Yun’s inadvertent question made her feel like her efforts to hide the unpleasant truth were ripped open and laid under the sun for everyone to see.
Jingjing explained, "I only like green tea, fruit tea has too much sugar, you should drink a little less."
"Oh, that’s okay, Mr. Pei is very thoughtful, he bought us all half-sugar." Qin Yun said, taking another sip of fruit tea, squinting comfortably.
"You really underestimate Mr. Pei, Mr. Pei’s attention to detail is unmatched by ordinary people, right, Mr. Pei." Qin Yun affectionately bumped Pei Yan’s shoulder, Pei Yan raised an eyebrow.
He hadn’t shown any obvious dislike because he was afraid of being seen as having double standards.
Qin Yun was the same, trying to avoid trouble.
But now it seemed like she was asserting her dominance?
He smiled helplessly at Qin Yun, "Yes, everything you said is right."
His attitude was just like coaxing a sulking little wife.
The fans in the live stream went crazy!
They all started screaming.
[Ahhhhh, who dares to say they’re not a couple, I’ll do a handstand live while washing my hair.]
[That look, that tone, have you ever seen Pei Yan be so gentle with anyone else?]
[I’ve been a fan of Mr. Pei for so many years, but I’ve never seen him have double standards with anyone like this.]
[Haven’t you noticed, there’s something about Jingjing’s tone that’s like insinuating something every time she speaks, is it just my imagination?]
[Above, it’s not just you who feels that way, I do too, I got goosebumps all over, what kind of top-notch green tea is this, every word seems to undermine someone to make herself look better. I heard previous guests thought she had a good temper? Is that serious?]
[Her fans just love her like this, saying she’s a natural ditz, straightforward talker, it’s a sign of being unassuming, it’s just that she’s practically got "scheming" written on her face, are they blind?]
[I think Yunyun seems angry, Jingjing has been acting weird since the restaurant, but I watched the playback and didn’t see any conflict between Yunyun and her, what’s going on?]
[Don’t you know, it’s the ’an innocent man gets into trouble because of his wealth’ thing, Jingjing has been in the industry for so many years, always with the heiress persona, saying if she doesn’t become popular, she’ll go home and inherit the family fortune, and her fans believe it. But there’s news saying, Jingjing is actually an illegitimate daughter and the family doesn’t acknowledge her, plus she hasn’t made any strides in the entertainment industry, her situation has always been awkward. Unlike our Yunyun, although she was separated from her family for many years, when she returned she was a princess, cherished by everyone around her, so Jingjing can’t stand it.]
[Sounds reasonable.]
[Clear and logical, have to admit.]
[Who said our Jingjing is an illegitimate daughter? She’s actually a second-generation rich, popularity doesn’t matter. What a bunch of haters, only have Qin Yun on their minds, can’t the earth spin without Qin Yun?]
[Qin Yun’s fans are all crazy, anyone who gets anywhere near her gets trashed unmercifully, do you even know how to rationally idolize?]
Jingjing’s fans somehow swarmed into Qin Yun and Pei Yan’s live stream and started arguing with Qin Yun’s fans.
Qin Yun’s fans didn’t take it seriously at first, just quickly sent comments to drown out the discordant ones, but Jingjing’s fans wouldn’t give up, soon sending the same comments repeatedly, spamming the screen.
Someone couldn’t take it anymore and directly started arguing back.
Su Yu had someone block the spammers immediately.
This only escalated the conflict further, both sides started arguing, Jingjing’s fans accused Qin Yun’s fans of conspiracy theories, deliberately ruining Jingjing’s image, also saying Qin Yun’s fans bullied people, deliberately insulted Jingjing, made her embarrassed.
