Chapter 371: Yaochi Fairy 4

Without waiting for Nangong Liuyun to speak, she smiled at Su Luo again and said, "Miss Su, Nangong is just like this. If we didn't take good care of you before, please don't mind it."

She spoke with the air of a mistress of the house.

Su Luo glanced at Nangong Liuyun nonchalantly, a mocking curve forming at the corners of her mouth.

Not long ago, this man had insisted on holding her hand and walking flauntingly before everyone, treating her like a precious treasure in the palm of his hand. Now, she seemed superfluous—no, not just seemed, she truly was superfluous.

Was she just a filler for his loneliness, emptiness, and cold while the Yaochi Fairy was away?

Even as Su Luo looked at Nangong Liuyun with such sarcasm, the latter was so stingy he wouldn't even spare her a glance, treating her as if she didn't exist.

Men, ha, they really are fickle! Su Luo felt a pang of bitterness in her heart and turned her head to look at the scenery outside.

Bei Chenying had always known that Li Yaoyao was gentle and mild on the surface but incredibly strong-willed inside. Seeing things take a sharp turn for the worse for Su Luo, he was about to say something when she interrupted him.

Su Luo said with a smile, "How could I mind? Yaochi Fairy, you're overthinking it."

Su Luo had acknowledged her status as the mistress of Nangong Liuyun's cruise ship.

She could have said countless things to embarrass the Yaochi Fairy, but… was it worth it?

This man had only ever had the Yaochi Fairy in his heart, protecting her at every moment. What right did she have to compete with the Yaochi Fairy? What was there even worth fighting for? Could she even win? And even if she did, what would be the point?

Su Luo didn't expect that Nangong Liuyun's face would instantly turn into frozen ice. His beautiful eyes were like millennial glaciers, gleaming with a cold, sharp light and emitting a faint chill.

The Yaochi Fairy seemed not to notice and smiled at Su Luo, "By the way, Miss Su, are you also here to fish for Purple Bauhinia Fish?"

"I'm just here to see the world," Su Luo said indifferently.

Seeing Su Luo's lonely expression, the Yaochi Fairy smiled consolingly, "Miss Su, there's no need to be sad. Purple Bauhinia Fish have always been difficult to catch, not to mention you are originally… so it's only natural not to catch any. When I first came at the age of five, I didn't catch a single one either, so you really don't need to be sad."

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of those present became even stranger than before.

Immersed in the joy of Su Luo's self-withdrawal and the pleasure of belittling her, the Yaochi Fairy carelessly failed to notice the oddity. Her smile was as brilliant as a hundred flowers in bloom.

A hint of mockery flashed in Su Luo's eyes.

The Yaochi Fairy's heart was in disarray.

As the saying goes, "concern leads to confusion." For such a lofty Little Princess of the Yaochi Palace to lower herself and personally take the field to humiliate her for Nangong Liuyun's sake was quite a feat.

Everyone knew what she meant by her hesitation. Unfortunately, her information was too outdated; she didn't know that Su Luo was now at the Third Rank instead of being Trash.

Comparing her five-year-old self to me… she really thinks highly of me.

Su Luo's clear, black-and-white eyes met the Yaochi Fairy's gaze. With the corners of her eyes upturned and her lips slightly curved, she said nonchalantly, "Yaochi Fairy, please don't comfort me anymore. Why do I feel like the more you comfort me, the sadder I get?"

With the Yaochi Fairy's self-important consolations, anyone with slightly weaker mental fortitude would indeed feel sadder the more they listened.

However, Su Luo's honest words were like poking a hornet's nest. The Yaochi Fairy's expression froze, and a shallow mist of tears instantly filled her large, clear eyes, making her look as though she had been deeply hurt.
