I became a mermaid egg and saved the Imperial Marshal

Chapter 155: Slap in the Face (Part )

Si Mingyu's gaze moved back and forth between Li Jia and Qi Yan.

He did not doubt the relationship between the two, because not only did they have the same hair color, but they also both had stunning faces. Anyone who saw them would think they were father and son.

What he was thinking about at this moment was Li Jia's identity. This little prince of the Orc Kingdom had disappeared for more than a hundred years. He suddenly made a high-profile comeback some time ago and announced his relationship with Jun Yan. This forced him to consider it carefully.

The royal family has always wanted to win over Cross and Jun Yan, but they have always been unmoved.

However, even if he cannot win him over, he must never let the other party side with Huo Linyuan. This is the emperor's attitude.

Therefore, the royal family has always been cautious and even flattering in dealing with the issue of Cross.

Originally, Si Mingyu came to interfere just to play the hero and save the beauty in front of Lan Xi. It didn't matter to him who was right or wrong.

So when he heard Li Jia's suggestive words, his face immediately turned cold and he looked at Xiao Qin.

The followers following him immediately understood what he meant and detained Xiao Qin.

"Are you maliciously slandering me?" Si Mingyu looked gloomy.

Being stared at by his cold eyes, Xiao Qin's face turned pale and she could only look at Lan Xi helplessly: "No, I...Lan Xi, save me!"

Although Lan Xi didn't want to stand up for her, he couldn't bear to see Qi Yan take away his limelight. Moreover, punishing Xiao Qin would mean slapping him in the face, so he stepped forward and pulled Si Mingyu's arm: "Your Highness..."

In the past, if a cold and beautiful woman was so hesitant to speak to him, Si Mingyu would definitely agree to her request in order to please her.

But this time was different from the past, and the person standing in front of him was someone he didn't even dare to offend easily.

As the crown prince of the empire, even if his head was filled with straw, it was impossible for him to not be able to distinguish the most basic gains and losses.

He looked back at Lanxi, which made Lanxi feel a little cold in her heart, and she let go of his hand in a daze.

Seeing this, Xiao Qin knew that they were planning to abandon her. In desperation, she pointed at Annie excitedly and shouted:

"It was her. She hit me first. Why do you take advantage of your power to bully others?"

Her words made Si Mingyu's eyes even colder, and his men quickly dragged the man away upon seeing this.

However, Li Jia stopped him at this time: "Wait!"

After saying that, he walked up to Xiao Qin, raised his hand and slapped her.

After the slap, he took out a handkerchief and wiped his hands carelessly, then threw the handkerchief away and looked at Xiao Qin with disdain: "I was the one who slapped her, what, do you have any objection?"

Xiao Qin was stunned and just tilted her head without reacting.

Then, Li Jia turned his head and looked at Si Mingyu sarcastically: "Or does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have any objections?"

Si Mingyu's face darkened for a moment. He signaled his men to take Xiao Qin away. When he looked at Li Jia again, his face had returned to normal, and he even had a nonchalant smile on his face.

"How could that be? I have long admired Prince Lijia's elegance and grace. This time I see that he is truly majestic."

"Today's incident was just a misunderstanding. Why should we damage our relationship over an irrelevant person? It would be better for me to host the party as an apology to you, young master."

Si Mingyu lightly raised the issue and wanted to move the matter over.

Li Jia sneered, "Really? There's no need to apologize, but my temple is small and I'm afraid it can't accommodate this huge Buddha statue of Your Highness the Crown Prince."

This blatant attitude of driving people away almost made Si Mingyu embarrassed, but thinking of future plans, he endured it temporarily.

"Since Prince Lijia and..." He looked at Qi Yan and smiled, which he thought was very elegant, "My dear, I am sorry for the inconvenience. I will not bother you any more and will visit you another day."

After saying this, he waved his hand and left, surrounded by his servants.

Seeing that Si Mingyu had left, Lanxi and the others felt that they would not gain any benefit by staying any longer, so they followed Si Mingyu and left in shame.

Seeing that the annoying guys were gone, Qi Yan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He walked happily to Li Jia's side and hugged Li Jia's arm: "Daddy, why are you here?"

Li Jia pinched his cheek lovingly, and did not answer immediately, but looked at the people behind him: "Are these all your classmates?"

"Yeah." Qi Yan nodded, and then made a brief introduction to Li Jia, Xie Shu and the other two.

"Hello, uncle!" The three of them greeted politely, their voices surprisingly uniform.

Li Jia raised his eyebrows, then personally led the group to the private room.

"Just treat this place as your own home. Order whatever you want to eat. Uncle will treat you."

After saying that, he touched Qi Yan's head and said, "Daddy is in the rest room on the top floor. He will come to pick you up later."

Qi Yan watched Li Jia leave the private room, and when she turned around, she saw Xie Shu and Annie with red faces, hugging each other excitedly.

Xie Shu looked like a crazy fan. Although Annie was relatively restrained, her expression was obviously excited. Even Bai Qiuning, who was usually relatively calm, had red ears.

Qi Yan: ???

Qi Yan tilted her head slightly and looked at them in confusion.

At this time, Xie Shu and Annie looked at each other, and then suddenly walked towards him.

In the end, Qi Yan was held by Xie Shu and pressed on the chair.

Xie Shu moved a stool and sat next to him, resting her elbows on the table, holding her face with both hands, squinting her eyes and smiling maliciously.

Although Annie didn't take any action, she silently moved a stool and sat next to Xie Shu, with a blush on her face that was unclear whether it was shyness or excitement.

"You guys, what are you doing?" Qi Yan leaned back.

"Xiao Yanyan, you never told us that you are the son of Lord Lijia." Xie Shu's tone seemed to say that you are not righteous.

Sir? Qi Yan thought, what kind of strange name is this?

He coughed lightly: "You...didn't ask me!"

Qi Yan's tone was a little weak, and in fact he did intend to conceal something.

However, Xie Shu simply waved her hand and said, "Forget it, those are not important."

Now the way she looked at Qi Yan was as if she was looking at a mountain of gold.

"Xiao Yanyan, you must know what Lord Lijia likes, right? Tell us." Xie Shu's eyes sparkled.

Qi Yan looked at her warily: "Why are you asking this? My dad and my father have a very good relationship, don't have any bad ideas."

It was really that Xie Shu's attitude was too weird, no wonder Qi Yan would think that way.

Xie Shu chuckled: "How could it be a bad idea? Is my sister not good to you?"

"This is a matter of principle." Qi Yan remained unmoved.

Of course, he didn't really think that Xie Shu had any feelings for Li Jia, he just didn't like to disclose his family's privacy.

Xie Shu curled her lips: "Stingy."

Seeing the two of them talking so seriously, Bai Qiu Ning on the side couldn't help but hold his forehead and sigh.

In fact, it is no wonder that Xie Shu and Annie are so excited. Li Jia's popularity in the pharmacy and planting departments has indeed reached a level that ordinary people can hardly reach.

Even after more than a hundred years, it has not diminished in the slightest.

Of course, this is not only because of his good talent, but more importantly, he is the only orc in the entire galaxy who has a fish tail.

Needless to say, people in the interstellar age admire mermaids to the greatest extent, and students in the pharmacy and planting departments are particularly enthusiastic.

Perhaps because of affinity, in their eyes, in addition to the admiration engraved in their blood, there is also a kind of admiration similar to that for "God".

Just like the mecha warriors admire Huo Linyuan.

Therefore, after knowing the reason of Xie Shu and Annie's fanaticism, Qi Yan became more determined to hide his tail.
