Xuan Yingluo walked up and when she was talking to Lu Yeming and Jun Xiqing, she could already feel a cold yet fiery gaze falling on her. The powerful aura brought by the two heavens of ice and fire could not be ignored, so she turned her head and saw Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu’s tall and long legs stood by the railing. His back was empty, and the black coat on his body was gurgling. His dark eyes were staring at her, just like the northern lands, no, he was sizing her up more wantonly than when he was in the northern lands, the way a man looked at a woman.

Their eyes met, and when he saw her looking over, Zhou Yu raised his sword-like eyebrows, overflowing with an evil aura.

There were no emotions on Xuan Yingluo’s beautiful little face, but her watery eyes were ice-cold.

“Yingluo, let me formally introduce you. This is the king of the northern lands, Zhou Yu. Ah Yu, this is the eldest daughter of the Xuan family, Xuan Yingluo,”Jun Xi Qing said.

Zhou Yu curled his thin lips and said in a deep and magnetic voice, “Your Majesty, there’s no need for introductions. I am personally... very familiar with this young miss of the Xuan family.”

He emphasized the word “Very familiar.”Others might not think much of it, but Xuan Yingluo’s heart turned cold and her two small hands curled up.

Jun Xi Qing looked at the two of them and said with a smile, “Yingluo, let’s go in. Today is the Big Day for you to become the Minister of State. There’s a banquet in the palace. Ah Yu, let’s go together.”

Zhou Yu naturally would not refuse. His gaze was fixed on Xuan Yingluo and did not shift away for even a second. “Alright, I’ll listen to the Queen’s arrangements.”

..

The banquet.

The lights were bright and the people who entered were all socialites.

As the main character of tonight, Xuan Yingluo had been personally brought by the Queen, Jun Xiqing. Jun Xiqing introduced a few important ministers to Xuan Yingluo and everyone praised her, “So the eldest daughter of the silver-masked Wang family, Xuan Yingluo, is actually such a peerless beauty. No wonder the silver-masked king covered her up so tightly. Now, I see that the threshold of the Xuan residence will be changed from batch to batch.”

“Exactly. Look at the nobles and nobles present here. which one of them doesn’t have their eyes on Yingluo?”

A few elders and important ministers were colleagues of Xuan Yingluo’s father, Xuan Ying, so they teased each other.

Jun Xi Qing held Xuan Yingluo’s little hand, “Yingluo has just become the Minister of State, and the burden on her shoulders is very heavy. She will not consider marriage for the time being, but this man should marry his daughter. I will naturally find a good marriage for Yingluo.”

They all heard that Jun Xi Qing was Xuan Yingluo’s godmother, and Xuan Yingluo had studied under Jun Xi Qing since she was young, so the status of the eldest daughter of the Xuan family was naturally incomparably noble. This future son-in-law must be a dragon among men to be able to match.

Xuan Yingluo wore a nude pink long dress and stood leisurely. She had an indescribably delicate and elegant appearance. In addition to her beautiful and cold little face, under the bright lights, she looked like a painting, full of fairy-like aura, the men present all looked at her with ‘Shua Shua’sounds, incomparably yearning.

Xuan Yingluo naturally noticed these gazes, but she didn’t care. What she cared about was that those cold and fiery gazes had always followed her. Wherever she was, he would follow. He didn’t avoid it at all, bold and ostentatious.

Xuan Yingluo raised her eyes and saw Zhou Yu. He was now surrounded by a few nobles and was worshipped by others.

But when those people spoke to him, even though he was smiling with his thin lips, his pair of black eyes were on her body and following her.

Xuan Yingluo’s pair of watery eyes turned cold. “Queen, I’m going to the washroom.”

“Go, Yingluo.”

Xuan Yingluo left.

The beautiful figure in Zhou Yu’s line of sight disappeared. Zhou Yu was still looking in the direction where she had disappeared. At this moment, the nobles beside him said, “Young Master Zhou, this time when you return to the capital, you have to stay well. What’s so good about the northern lands? To put it bluntly, the girls in the northern lands are not as beautiful as the girls in the capital. Look at this hall full of socialites. They are all delicate daughters. I wonder if Young Master Zhou has taken a fancy to them?”

Zhou Yu was thirty this year, and he was already at the age to get married and have children. When he was the king of the northern lands, those influential people had gathered all sorts of beautiful women or sent portraits of their own daughters to him. Now that the news had spread out.., the sovereign had summoned him back to the capital and wanted him to take charge of the right wing. Those influential people all fawned over him like ducks, wanting to treat him as their son-in-law.

In addition to Zhou Yu’s natural good looks, the maturity and depth he had gained from his years of experience, the power and status he had gained from his tumultuous life, as well as the indescribably strong physique of a thirty-year-old man, as well as the unbridled devilish charm that grew on his brows.., he had already made those socialites faint.

Zhou Yu looked in the direction where Xuan Yingluo had disappeared. “You’re right. How can the girls of the northern lands compare to those of the capital? I still prefer the beauties of the capital.”

..

Xuan Yingluo was walking along the corridor when she heard a series of steady and powerful footsteps. Someone was following her.

She did not need to look back to know who it was. She quickened her pace and Xuan Yingluo made a turn.

Zhou Yu put his hands into his pockets and followed her with his long legs. Just as he made a turn, a cold glint flashed in his eyes and a sharp blade pierced towards his heart.

Zhou Yu stretched out his hand and grabbed the slender wrist with his rough and large palm before pushing it back. Just as Xuan Yingluo’s slender back was pressed against the wall, Zhou Yu’s tall and straight body came over and enveloped her, this fluid movement was so manly that it made people scream.

“Seeing me so passionate, HM?”

Xuan Yingluo moved and wanted to stab the sharp blade in her hand into his heart, but she could not move. Zhou Yu grabbed her wrist with a strength as strong as an iron hoop. She looked up and as he spoke, he even slightly bent his tall waist, he brought a handsome, three-dimensional face to her eyes, and the curve of his lips looked at her wantonly and playfully, just like the way he looked at her that night, just like the way he looked at her in the hall, frivolous and indecent.., without any scruples.

“Shameless and indecent!”

Xuan Yingluo looked at him coldly and scolded him.

Zhou Yu was in a good mood after being scolded, but he pretended to frown. “How am I shameless and indecent? Speak clearly.”

“You!”

Xuan Yingluo angrily turned her beautiful face away.

Zhou Yu reached out and pinched her small chin. Looking at her beautiful face up close, her bright eyes and white teeth were intoxicating. After being together for so many months, this was the first time he saw her change back into women’s clothes. He wanted to take a good look at her.historical

“Don’t Touch Me!”

Xuan Yingluo refused.

However, the result of her refusal was that Zhou Yu directly scooped her palm-sized face into his palm. Then, he forcefully turned her around and forced her to look at him. “Xuan... Yingluo, huh?”

He used an exceptionally deep and magnetic voice to mutter her name.

Xuan Yingluo did not reply. However, she bent her knees at a speed that was not fast enough to cover her ears and directly kicked at Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu couldn’t Dodge in time and hissed.

There was still one more.
