Chapter 18: You, I Find Dirty

"Alright, I accept."

Mu Ruyue curled her lips. In the Ghost Prince Manor where there were only two people, no one would bother her no matter what she wanted to do. But in the Mu Family, there were too many inconveniences.

Anyway, once her strength grew, a Prince Mansion would no longer be able to restrict her steps.

However, Mu Ruyue at that moment didn't know that this decision would bind her to a man for life, destined to be entangled with him for all eternity...

"I will issue the decree to the Mu Family later. If there's nothing else, everyone may disperse," said Emperor Zi Yue impatiently, waving his hand as he couldn't wait to share lunch with his beloved concubine.

After everyone left, Ye Yihua walked over to Mu Ruyue with a smile. With his fan, he lifted her chin, his charming eyes brimming with a seductive smile. "Miss Mu, that fool knows nothing of romance, nor how to satisfy a woman. If you have needs, feel free to come to me. My door will always be open for you, and I'll surely show you how good I am."

Mu Ruyue squinted her eyes, raised her hand to knock away the fan, and stared at him coldly, her gaze mocking. "Do I need to say it again? I'm not interested in someone like you. You must frequent brothels quite a bit, right? Perhaps your entire body is full of germs. I feel dirty even standing in front of you."

His smile froze for a moment, but Ye Yihua quickly returned to his flirtatious demeanor.

"Marrying that fool is no different from being alone in an empty room. So I believe you'll come looking for me. As for my skills, I'm very confident. Even to someone inexperienced, I can ensure she won't feel much pain."

Mu Ruyue smiled faintly. "It's fine if you have germs, but I won't allow others to bring them to me. If you have nothing else to say, Prince, please leave."

Ye Yihua gave her a meaningful glance and smiled lightly. "Then I'll look forward to what happens after you marry my cousin. By then, don't come crying to me."

Ye Yihua, who had both talent and looks, didn't know how many women were willing to spend a night with him. He didn't believe any woman could resist his charms.

Though he couldn't marry this woman, it would be nice to make her his lover.

After all, that fool wouldn't know how to touch her.

Once Emperor Zi Yue announced the dispersal, Mu Qing didn't wait for Mu Ruyue. Instead, he hurriedly went to deliver the good news to Mu Tingting. So, in the vast Imperial Palace, Mu Ruyue got lost.

"Beat that fool to death! Beat him to death!"

"Yes, how can a fool be allowed to step into our palace?"

"Fool, let me tell you, Father has just arranged a marriage for you. It's with Feng City's number one waste. A fool matched with a waste, truly a perfect pair, hahaha!"

Suddenly, a burst of chaotic noise came from ahead.

Frowning, Mu Ruyue looked ahead, her gaze passing over the princes and princesses in luxurious clothes, landing on that helpless, thin figure.

Upon seeing the familiar face, Mu Ruyue paused. This was the beautiful young man who'd fallen on her yesterday. From their conversation, could he be the Ghost King? But wasn't the Ghost King supposed to look like a ghost? This young man was pure and handsome. How did he resemble a ghost?

"I... I was just here to retrieve a kite," the young man said, pursing his lips. His aggrieved look made him seem like a pitiful little lamb, making a few girls feel some pity as they tugged at the sleeves of the boys beside them, saying, "Let it go."

"Let it go? What for? Hmph, this fool came without Father's summons. How could I let him go?"

Saying this, he snatched the kite from the young man's hand, snapping it in half with a crack and throwing it harshly into his face, snarling, "There's your kite!"

With his head slightly lowered, everyone thought the young man was silently mourning the broken kite. Yet, no one noticed that there wasn't a hint of sadness on his handsome face.
