Chapter 278: All for Nothing

Chapter 278: Chapter 278: All for Nothing

Wang Duo couldn’t bear to watch any longer. He quickly helped Wang Heng up, then looked at Wang Luyao and said, "Child, just agree. Look, your grandfather even knelt to you."

Meng Min also came over, took Wang Luyao’s hand, and said, "Child, please stay. Mom and Dad want to be with you, to make up for how we’ve failed you all these years!"

As she spoke, her eyes instantly reddened. Beside her, Wang Duo was also crying nonstop.

Wang Luyao immediately hesitated.

At this moment, Ye Feng looked at Wang Luyao with a smile and said, "Do it for your parents’ sake. Just stay!"

"I’ll listen to you." Only then did Wang Luyao nod.

Wang Heng was so excited his soul nearly flew out of his body. He cried out hastily, "Wonderful! I’ll have someone prepare a grand banquet right away to celebrate the return of my precious granddaughter!"

Ye Feng, however, chuckled and said, "I don’t think I’ll be staying for dinner. I’m holding a wedding ceremony with the princess tonight. There will be plenty of good food over there. Let’s go!"

With that, he turned and left with his group.

Just then, Wang Jiang ran in, looked at Wang Heng, and exclaimed in astonishment, "Dad, isn’t Ye Feng Luyao’s husband? How did he become a Prince Consort? Isn’t he two-timing?"

Wang Heng slapped him hard across the face. "Are the games of the upper class something you’re qualified to interfere with? No, you are not! Now hurry up and prepare a lavish gift. We’re going to the princess’s wedding ceremony tonight, too. Thanks to Luyao, we’re now qualified to attend, hahahaha..."

Meanwhile, Ye Feng’s group had already gone outside. Meng Min looked at Wang Duo and exclaimed in bewilderment:

"Isn’t Ye Feng our Luyao’s son-in-law? And those other two girls also have a murky relationship with him. How is he now a Prince Consort? I feel like this is a bit of a mess. Can Luyao handle this?"

Wang Duo quickly shook his head, a fearful look on his face. "My goodness, you dare to meddle in the Prince Consort’s affairs? Do you have a death wish?!"

Meng Min froze.

Then, Wang Duo looked at the beaming Wang Luyao and said with relief, "Don’t overthink it. As long as our Luyao is happy, we should be content."

...

Up ahead, Ye Feng looked at Wang Luyao with a grin and said, "Luyao, I really backed you up today. Are you satisfied?"

Wang Luyao turned her head, glared at Ye Feng, and said through gritted teeth:

"You cheat on me in front of my family and then ask if I’m satisfied? Oh, I’m satisfied, alright—satisfied enough to curse your entire family tree!"

Behind them, Meng Jiaxin and the others burst out laughing.

The princess quickly went to Wang Luyao’s side, took her hand, and said with a look of shame:

"Sister, I’m so sorry. The truth is, I..."

Before she could finish, Wang Luyao grasped her hand and said hurriedly, "Princess, you don’t have to say anything. I’ve known about you and Ye Feng for a while. You had no other choice.

Come on, let’s go meet the other two sisters!"

The group went to the room of Wang Duo and his wife. Wang Luyao looked at Xiao Yufei and Nangong Xue and made the introductions quickly:

"Sister Yufei, Xue’Er, this is Her Highness, the Princess!"

Xiao Yufei and Nangong Xue both quickly stood up and came over to greet her. "We commoners greet the princess!"

Long Xi’Er quickly helped the two of them up and said hastily, "Sisters, please rise!"

Just then, Ye Feng spoke from behind them with a grin, "So, now you’re all acquainted!"

Xiao Yufei and Nangong Xue wished they could smash Ye Feng’s damn head in. Without any warning, he had just forcibly shoved a princess on them!

But neither of them was an aggressive person, and the other party was a princess. So, they could only hold their noses and be polite. In their hearts, however, they had already cursed Ye Feng a thousand times over: ’You bastard, just you wait.’

At that moment, the princess looked at the three of them, blushing, and said, "Sisters, tonight is the day of my wedding to Ye Feng. I hope you’ll have time to attend."

As the words left her mouth, Long Xi’Er herself couldn’t help but blush. ’Marrying their husband and then asking them to attend... This is simply shameless!’

The three women felt their teeth ache just hearing it. They spoke through clenched jaws:

"We’re free. We’ll be sure to attend on time!"

Long Xi’Er couldn’t bear to stay any longer. Blushing, she excused herself and left.

Ye Feng closed the door, looked at the three women, rubbed his hands together, and said with a mischievous chuckle:

"My dear wives, did you miss me? Why don’t we... get reacquainted right now?"

"Ye Feng, I’ll kill you...!" The three women each grabbed a weapon and charged at him.

Ye Feng fled in disarray. But when he reached the door, he said something that nearly made the three women explode with rage.

Ye Feng turned his head, looked at the three "sisters," and said with a smirk, "Since you won’t have me, I’ll just go find Ningning.

Remember, it’s not that I didn’t give you a chance, it’s that you failed to take it!"

"You bastard, get back here! Stop!" Nangong Xue charged over, brandishing a mop, but Ye Feng was already running away, laughing heartily.

Ye Feng had just stepped outside when his phone rang urgently. He picked it up and saw it was an unknown number. He answered it casually.

A kind voice came from the other end. "Little friend, I am Xuanyuan Sword!"

"Grand Elder, hello!" Xuanyuan Sword had righteously stepped in to help him several times, so Ye Feng had a very favorable impression of him and spoke politely.

Xuanyuan Sword laughed and said, "Little friend, if you’re free right now, would you care to come over for a drink?"

As he spoke, he suddenly began to cough violently.

Ye Feng heard the problem. He frowned and said, "Grand Elder, you don’t sound well."

The Grand Elder coughed and said, "It’s just a small issue. Come over, and we’ll talk then!"

Ye Feng agreed, hung up the phone, and after a moment of thought, sped off in his car toward the address Xuanyuan Sword had provided.

...

「Meanwhile.」

The Imperial Palace.

The Eastern Palace.

The Queen sat in the seat of honor, her expression dark.

Kneeling opposite her were two men.

The Minister of Revenue, Sun Hao.

The Minister of Justice, Zhao Yu!

Zhao Yu looked at the Queen, his face a mask of misery, and cried, "Your Majesty, I can’t go on! I can’t go on! Not only did Ye Feng kill my son, but he also had me stripped of my position completely!"

Beside him, Sun Hao quickly nodded. "Your Majesty, me too! My son was also killed by that Ye Feng, and he had me stripped clean of my position as well.

Your Majesty, as the saying goes, ’you look at the master before you beat the dog.’ But this bastard just went ahead and attacked us directly without a second thought! He’s not just disrespecting us; he’s clearly disrespecting you! He’s slapping you in the face!"

The moment he finished speaking, the Queen slammed her hand on the table with a BANG. She shot to her feet and roared in fury, "Insolent! How dare he! If I don’t see him dead this time, I swear I won’t rest!"

The two men exchanged a look, their eyes instantly lighting up. But in the next moment, Zhao Yu’s face fell. "Your Majesty, tonight he’s holding the wedding ceremony with the princess. He’ll be the Prince Consort, a member of the imperial family! Can you really kill him?"

The Queen spoke with a chilling tone, "Holding a wedding? Becoming a member of the imperial family? He’s dreaming. Tonight, I’ll make sure all his efforts come to nothing..."

Then she explained her plan. Upon hearing it, the two men’s eyes lit up again. "Your Majesty is wise! With such a meticulous plan, Ye Feng will surely not escape death!"

The Queen said in a cold voice, "He dares to oppose me? He’s courting death!"

With that, she picked up her phone and made a call.
