“No, I want to go with them!” Gulibaduo grabbed Li Yingjie’s hand. Li Yingjie wanted to dodge but his body suddenly went numb. In that instant, Gulibaduo caught him.
Li Yingjie glared at Gulibaduo. He wanted to push her away. “Why are you grabbing my hand?”
“Hmph, I want you to help me!” Gulibaduo turned fierce. She was a princess that was raised to take over the throne. If she needed to be vicious, she would. “If you all don’t help me, you all can forget about having fun.” She suddenly gave an order, “Surround them!”
Senior Colonel Mu Youyun smiled bitterly. He had no choice but to surround Ling Lan and her friends. He didn’t know why the princess was so interested in these six people. However, it was better to choose Ling Lan compared to choosing someone unfamiliar.
Li Yingjie pointed at the princess indignantly. “You are unreasonable.”
Gulibaduo raised her chin arrogantly. “Are you all going to help me?”
Li Yingjie wanted to say something but Qi Long and Lin Zhong-qing stopped him. They dragged Li Yingjie back and the six of them had a small discussion. In the end, Li Yingjie said unwillingly, “You can follow us. However, you must promise that you will listen to us. If not, you can leave.”
Gulibaduo smiled with satisfaction. “Deal!” She pointed at Li Yingjie and asked, “Oh right, what is your name?”
Li Yingjie got furious again. “You don’t even know who I am? Why did you want to follow us then? You are so troublesome. My name is Ma Rao. Don’t forget it. Also, please call Young Master Ma!”
Li Yingjie didn’t care whether Gulibaduo was a princess or not. He portrayed his character very well. He was a young, slightly wealthy, but inexperienced young master from the countryside.
“I know it now. Your name is Ma Rao,” Gulibaduo didn’t care about his poor att.i.tude and replied to him calmly. Li Yingjie gritted his teeth in anger.
“h.e.l.lo, erm, you can call me An Jieming. Nice to meet you.” Qi Long smiled as he introduced himself. As compared to Li Yingjie, his att.i.tude was much better.
“h.e.l.lo!” Gulibaduo smiled at Qi Long brightly. Gulibaduo liked this humble young man.
“I am Lu Liyi.” Li Lanfeng nodded at Gulibaduo with a smile.
“Qin Feng!” Zhao Jun waved his hand.
“h.e.l.lo, my name is He Anya.” Ling Lan smiled at Gulibaduo. Gulibaduo’s eyes lit up. She was surprised.
She didn’t expect this young man, who had been hiding behind Zhao Jun, to be so cute and innocent. He looked as pure as an infant. When she saw him, her mood instantly got better. She wanted to collect his smile to invigorate her.
Li Lanfeng felt Gulibaduo’s gaze and tilted his body slightly to block Ling Lan. Gulibaduo regained her senses quickly. She smiled shyly and turned to look at Lin Zhong-qing who was standing beside Li Yingjie with a timid look.
Lin Zhong-qing raised his head when he felt the princess looking at him. He says in a soft voice, “My name is He Lin. Nice to meet you.” Before Gulibaduo could reply to him, he lowered his head again. Gulibaduo saw his ears turning red. This young man was timid and shy…
This guy must be his lackey, right?
Yun Feiyang was unhappy when he saw that the princess didn’t want to follow him. She would rather follow a few commoners. However, he still kept his manners and bid farewell to the princess before leaving with his men.
Ling Lan looked at Yun Feiyang. She knew that Yun Feiyang would not give up on his target this easy. They would definitely meet him again during these three days. Ling Lan hoped that Yun Feiyang just wanted to pursue the princess and not kill her. If not, the protectors of the princess would have a hard time.
“Where are you planning to go?” Princess Gulibaduo asked curiously.
Li Yingjie sneered. “We are planning to go to places which are suitable for commoners like us. If you think that it is not suitable for your status, you can still leave.”
Gulibaduo was excited. “Sure, I have never gone to a commoner’s shop before. I can finally visit them.” Li Yingjie was puzzled at how happy she was. What was so exciting about a commoner’s shop? If he was not on a mission, he would never visit those shops.
Li Yingjie was used to using products of the best quality. He didn’t like to use things commonly used by commoners. He glanced at Ling Lan. He didn’t know about the other people but Ling Lan had a high status. Could he bear to use those items?
Li Yingjie didn’t know that in her first life, Ling Lan was just a commoner.
Li Yingjie knew that Ling Lan had made a move when they were in the atrium of the s.h.i.+p. That was why his body went numb. Thus, he agreed to let Gulibaduo follow them.
The six people trip became a trip with a whole group of people. The arrival of these high-cla.s.s people caused an uproar among the shops. Li Yingjie was furious. He asked Gulibaduo to make a decision. Either she shopped by herself with her bodyguards, or with them but with her bodyguards staying further away.
The princess instantly chose to let her bodyguards stayed further away. She wanted to walk around the place with Li Yingjie and his friends. Thus, the bodyguards and servants had no choice but to follow them from afar. The princess laughed happily. She felt like a bird that finally managed to regain freedom.
“Are you sure that those six people are harmless?” In a room, a person held a small device in his hand. His eyes were closed. He was the second son-in-law of the Yun family, Luo Chengwen. He was contacting the hackers of the Yun family and ascertaining the data of Ling Lan and her friends.
“Yes, they are just ordinary students from He Ping Academy. They planned to have a graduation trip at the end of their school year.” Very soon, the hackers sent over the fake ident.i.ties of Ling Lan and her friends.
Luo Chengwen hung up only after receiving the information. He opened his eyes slowly. An agitated Yun Feiyang came into his vision.
“Besides Ma Rao, the rest of them are only at manifestation. They are of no threat.” Luo Chengwen pa.s.sed the information to Yun Feiyang. Actually, besides asking the hackers from the Yun family to check their ident.i.ties, Luo Chengwen personally went to He Ping Academy’s mainframe and flipped through their doc.u.ments. He even went to look at the information about their parents as well as their records in their scout academy. They were clean.
Luo Chengwen believed that even an ace hacker would not be able to design such a perfect disguise. Hence, the data of these six people must be true. Only real data had no loopholes.
Luo Chengwen didn’t know that one of the six people had an ultimate hacker as a subordinate, Little Four. When Luo Chengwen hacked into the mainframe of He Ping Academy, Little Four’s replica noticed him. Thus, all the information that he saw was what Little Four wanted him to see. Luo Chengwen was wrong when he said that only real data had no loopholes. The G.o.d of the virtual world could do it too. Unfortunately, Little Four was the G.o.d of the virtual world.
Yun Feiyang looked at the ident.i.ties of those six people. One of them was a wealthy person who came from the countryside. He couldn’t be compared with him. After all, he was a member of an elite family. He slammed the doc.u.ments on the table and said angrily, “How dare those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds try to interfere in this matter. They are looking for death.”
Luo Chengwen replied calmly, “Don’t be rash. We might not need the princess’ help. Let’s wait and see if the princess survives these three days.”
Yun Feiyang was shocked. “Will something happen to the princess? No way. I need to protect her.”
“Come back!” Luo Chengwen shouted, “Did you really fall in love with the princess?”
Yun Feiyang stopped in his tracks. He said in a low voice, “Since you ask me to pursue the princess, why can’t I fall in love with her?”
“You should shun away from relations.h.i.+ps if you want to achieve great success,” Luo Chengwen said seriously.
“What about you? When you pursued my second aunt last time, did you not love her? Were you just trying to make use of her?” Yun Feiyang turned around and shouted in anger.
Luo Chengwen’s expression changed. He took a while before he replied, “I love your second aunt and that is why I am being restricted by the Yun family. If I didn’t fall in love with your aunt, I will not… will not…”
Yun Feiyang’s heart became softer when he heard what Luo Chengwen said. “Uncle, I know what sacrifices you made for my second aunt. You became the hacker of the Yun family and even helped us nurtured a group of hackers. You allowed our status in the business world to rise. We have the chance of moving up from a small-sized family into a middle-sized family. This is the dream of everyone in the Yun family.”
Yun Feiyang’s eyes were s.h.i.+ning with ambition. “Now, we are very close to achieving our dream. As long as I get Gulibaduo’s heart and marry her, as long as Gulibaduo gained a portion of the power to rule the Balaya Kingdom, we can make use of this power and become a middle-sized family. No, we might even become a big-sized family.”
Luo Chengwen looked down. He hid the contempt in his eyes. “I also hope that the Yun family would rise too. Ai’Ya would be happy. That is why I am willing to help you all.”
“However, I know what a man is willing to sacrifice for the woman he loves. I am an example. I can’t let you be in the same situation as me.” When Luo Chengwen looked up again, his eyes were sincere. He was bound by love. He didn’t want Yun Feiyang to go through the same thing.
“Uncle, Gulibaduo is a smart person. She could feel whether I am sincere or not. If I don’t actually love her, I will never be able to get her heart.” Yun Feiyang lowered his head. He knew what he wanted. Everyone was unique. He was not Luo Chengwen. He loved the princess but he would not give up his ambition for her.
He had gathered information about Gulibaduo and knew that she didn’t have many friends. However, all her friends treated her sincerely. This caused Yun Feiyang to suspect that Gulibaduo had an innate talent which allowed her to spot out who was sincere and who was not. This was why he allowed himself to fall in love with her. That was the only way he could win her over.
Luo Chengwen seemed convinced. “As long as you know what you are doing, everything will be fine. Just don’t go down the same path as me.” He had thrown away all his ambitions for the sake of love.
Yun Feiyang nodded. He left the room with his men. He needed to stay beside the princess these three days and protect her.
Yun Feiyang was clear that the princess was his best shortcut. It was hard to find another person as good as the princess. He might not even be able to get close even if he found someone better. Also, he was the princess’ life savior. He couldn’t give up just like this. He had fallen in love with the princess so whether it was personal or for business, he could not let her die.
The first day pa.s.sed peacefully. Ling Lan and her friends were dragged to a nine-star hotel. They were excited and scared.
As expected of a nine-star hotel, it was very comfortable. While they were staying at the hotel, they created many laughable moments. As a wealthy young master from the country, Li Yingjie had stayed in five-star and six-star hotels before. He also saw photos of seven-star and eight-star hotels to satisfy his fantasy. However, nine-stars… even Li Yingjie couldn’t handle this kind of wealth.
The six people had a great time in the hotel. They had a wonderful night of sleep and felt energetic the next morning. Li Yingjie told them that he would ask his father to earn more money so that he could stay in a nine-star hotel all the time. Ling Lan and the rest of them scolded him and said that he was living off his parents.
The six of them packed up and wanted to continue shopping. However, Gulibaduo stopped them. Gulibaduo received an order from her father, who was the king of the Balaya Kingdom. She needed to attend an underground auction held at 1 pm today and get the Babu scepter back. The Babu scepter represented the right to rule the Balaya Kingdom. It had been missing for four centuries.
