After finishing two jars, Qin Muyan could continue to indulge in drinking, but Su Yingxue had reached her limit.

She placed her wine cup down and said, “Your Highness, please enjoy your drink.”

While Qin Muyan knew about her poor tolerance for alcohol, he didn’t force her. He continued to enjoy his drink alone.

Qin Muyan asked Su Yingxue, “Miss Su, what kind of man do you like?”

Su Yingxue, with one hand on the table and cupping her face, took a moment to think and said, “1 like…”

Before she could finish, footsteps suddenly echoed from upstairs, indicating the arrival of someone significant. People on the first and second floors began to express their amazement.

“This lady is so beautiful!”

“What lady? She is the Eldest Princess of Qi State!”

“No wonder! Anyone walking alongside our Ninth Prince must be a woman of high status!”

“They look well-matched!”

A cool breeze from the window interrupted Su Yingxue’s reverie. She abruptly stood up and walked outside.

Qin Muyan also put down his wine glass and followed her.

With a crowd of onlookers, Su Yingxue tried to squeeze through to catch a glimpse. However, she stumbled and nearly fell.

Qin Muyan quickly grabbed her arm, wrapped his arm around her waist, and pulled her into his embrace. With a voice carrying the fragrance of wine, he said, “Be careful!”

Su Yingxue was held steady by him. He even rubbed Su Yingxue’s head with a doting gaze. “If you can’t hold your liquor well, don’t rush around. I will send you back.”

He was so gentle, as if he was treating the woman he loved.

Standing on the stairs, Han Yuwen observed them with a natural air of arrogance. “It seems the Scarlet Flame King and Miss Su are quite familiar.”

Qin Muyan looked up in surprise. “It’s the Ninth Prince and the Eldest Princess.”

What a coincidence!

He was about to support Su Yingxue, but he felt a gust of wind coming at him. He quickly protected her. If Su Yingxue hadn’t reacted quickly and pushed him away, he would have been like the table behind him.

“Bang!”

A loud crash filled the air as the table shattered into pieces.

Qin Muyan’s anger surged. “Why did the Ninth Prince suddenly attack?”

Chu Yihan embraced Su Yingxue, paying no attention to Qin Muyan. Instead, he lowered his head, gazing at the woman in his arms with a dark storm in his eyes. “Why did you come out to drink with him?”

“I…” Su Yingxue’s courage wavered under his intense gaze. Yet, when she spotted Han Yuwen, high and mighty, on the stairs, her anger flared. “Then why did you come out to eat with her? Didn’t you say you had something to do? Your business is to accompany her?”

Did he break his promise to accompany this princess?

“I have something to discuss with her!” Chu Yihan exuded a formidable pressure that made it difficult to breathe.

“Then 1 have something to discuss with the Scarlet Flame King!” Su Yingxue stubbornly bit her lip.

“Is that so?”

Chu Yihan’s lips curled up dangerously. When he turned to Qin Muyan, his eyes radiated murderous intent.

Qin Muyan’s gaze turned icy. “Ninth Prince, please release Miss Su. 1 must return the favor you just gave me.”

“Alright.”

Chu Yihan let go of Su Yingxue and whispered, “Stand aside.”

However, Su Yingxue held onto him tightly. “Your Highness, he is the Scarlet Flame King. Attacking him without reason was your fault! You two… You can’t fight!”

“Was 1 wrong? Are you blaming me for him?” Chu Yihan tightened his grip on her hand, and Su Yingxue felt as if her bones were about to be crushed by his force..
