PLEASE BE AWARE NEXT TIME

Qianru spent her entire trip to the palace in dazed. She thought about everything that happened in the past and things that she would face in the future.

The word of 'peaceful' seemed so far. She felt as if she walked in the dark tunnel and couldn't see a glimmer of light in the end of it.

She sighed tiredly when they reached the palace entrance gates and changed into sedan that brought her to the Yin palace, where the crown princess Zhao Tianqi and the crown prince Mo Qin Yi lived.

The moment she walked in the corridor toward the pavilion, where Zhao Tianqi had been waiting for her, from afar, she could see that Zhao Tianqi had extended her invitation to the other three women.

The four of them were sitting on the round table while smiling and let out a coquettish laugh.

Once Qianru arrived at the base stairs of the pavilion, the female servant who escorted Qianru announced her presence. Her voice was so soft that made the four people inside the pavilion oblivious and still continued with their conversation.

Qianru had been in foul mood ever since she received the invitation letter and now her inviter even didn't aware of her guest. She sighed a deep breath to release some of her tense before she glanced at Jinse and let her know what she should do.

The female servant stepped forward and with loud voice she announced her mistress presence. Her voice was so loud that if they still insisted to pretend to not hear it, Qianru would question their hearing ability.

"Oh, princess Xiao…" Zhao Tianqi and the rest of the girl stood up and approached her. "I don't know that you already here." She said sweetly while guiding Qianru to the table.

However, looking at the situation, Qianru really wanted to laugh out loud. This was plainly a Hongman banquet. She knew that she would receive this kind of bully once she decided to come, but she didn't know that the crown prince of Rockstone Kingdom was so cheap to actually use this simple trick.

Around the table, there were only four chairs available and those were the chair that they sat before.

"There are only four chairs?" Qianru cut off whatever Zhao Tianqi was blabbering about as she looked at them rigidly.

"Oh, what should I do…? I am not aware about this." Zhao Tianqi faked her panic while looking around.

As for now, Zhao Tianqi and the three women were standing beside their chair, so it was clear to see that Qianru didn't have a place to sit.

"My apologize for my lack of awareness… this is my mistake…" She gave a timid smiled, but didn't say anything to the servant nearby to bring an extra chair.

The three women snickered behind their sleeves, looking at Qianru's situation. However, Qianru looked back at them calmly.

"Since Princess Zhao knows her mistake, I will receive the apologize." As Qianru was saying that, she leisurely sat on Zhao Tianqi's chair.

If they thought they could irk her just because of a simple matter like a chair, they were massively wrong. She had been living through various schemes in Azura, so this lame trick was like walking in the garden for her.

"Fine arrangement for a small tea party like this is reflection of the inviter manner and conduct." Qianru reached a tea pot and started to brew her own tea. "Please be aware next time." She added while smiling harmlessly at Zhao Tianqi who was still standing beside her.
