200: Original text: Chapter 200 A Well-Intentioned Lie 200: Original text: Chapter 200 A Well-Intentioned Lie Su Qingyu was somewhat puzzled.

Anna had something to say to her at this time, but it seemed that the two were not very familiar.

Su Qingyu had only seen Anna before in magazines and the news, after all, the other woman was a royal princess, and she was far away in England.

This status alone meant the two did not have much interaction.

Su Qingyu nodded politely; although she was not familiar with Anna, last night, the latter had bravely come to her aid.

Otherwise, Su Qingyu might have been taken away.

Elder Allen and Dean Reek were also very tactful, noticing that Anna wanted to have a private word with Su Qingyu, they naturally left first.

“Anna, what do you want to say to me?” Su Qingyu was taken aside by Anna, her tone carrying a hint of confusion.

“Actually, I know your…

husband.” Anna stumbled over her words, seemingly worried that Su Qingyu wouldn’t be able to accept it.

“What, how do you know him?” Su Qingyu was equally shocked.

Anna was a British royal princess, and Ye Shikai had only stayed abroad for three years.

How could they have met?

Therefore, it was natural for Su Qingyu to be agitated; she was even more resentful that Ye Shikai hadn’t told her about this.

“It was a very coincidental situation; I’ll explain it to you later.” Anna said.

She was indeed fond of Ye Shikai, and her desire to go to Holy Mountain to find him was genuine.

However, now that she knew Su Qingyu was his wife, there were some things Anna wouldn’t say, to avoid making Su Qingyu feel awkward.

“He didn’t even tell me.” Su Qingyu’s tone was filled with complaint and a hint of a petulant woman’s demeanor.

Anna smiled demurely and spoke in defence of Ye Shikai, “I think he must have had his reasons.”

Su Qingyu thought about it; when she first met Ye Shikai, she had been entirely dismissive of him.

Even if he had told her, she wouldn’t have believed it.

After their relationship improved, Ye Shikai wouldn’t have mentioned it either.

Revealing that he knew another beauty in front of his wife would only make Su Qingyu jealous.

“I think with a beautiful wife like you, how could he possibly mention me?” Anna said with a smile.

After hearing this, Su Qingyu’s pretty face turned red.

“Do you know where he is now?

I haven’t been able to contact him recently; I’m very worried about him.

If possible, could you take…?”

“I don’t know.” Before Su Qingyu could finish speaking, Anna refused.

She knew Su Qingyu hoped to accompany them, which Anna had anticipated.

Anna wasn’t intentionally lying to her; although she knew Ye Shikai was on Holy Mountain, the dangers of Holy Mountain were not something an ordinary person like Su Qingyu could withstand.

If something dangerous happened, and there was an accident, Ye Shikai would definitely go crazy.

So Anna lied to her; once she mentioned Ye Shikai was on Holy Mountain, Su Qingyu would go even if she had to go alone.

“I see, well then.” Su Qingyu felt somewhat disappointed.

She had asked Ailina, and even Wild Wolf and Short-nosed Crocodile, but they all said they didn’t know Ye Shikai’s whereabouts.

Anna deeply sensed Su Qingyu’s love for Ye Shikai, but at the same time, it left a bitter taste in her heart.

Su Qingyu’s complete ignorance was entirely due to Ye Shikai’s protection.

“By the way, if I may be so bold to ask, what is your relationship with him?” Suddenly, Su Qingyu grabbed Anna’s arm, speaking somewhat embarrassingly.

“Friends.” Anna said, a flash of sadness in her eyes, “I like him.” However, this last sentence was only said in her heart.

Anna turned and left to meet up with the Great Elder.

After she received a text from Ghost, she had Dean Reek arrange a safer room for Su Qingyu.

Here, her safety could be guaranteed.

However, Anna guessed that the Main Gods had already gone to Holy Mountain.

Although Su Qingyu was Ye Shikai’s Achilles’ heel, they probably wouldn’t dwell on this, as Holy Mountain had already opened, and they didn’t want to fall too far behind.

Anna looked into the distance, the real danger was just beginning.

….

Yanjing Library.

Here, the campus debate competition between Yanjing University and Beitian University is about to take place.

Ye Shikai was supposed to come and watch, but as he is now in Europe, he can only give it a miss.

However, Su Ziqing, this little enchantress, is resting her head on the table, looking somewhat distracted.

With the big competition imminent, as the first speaker for Yanjing University, this state of hers is indeed puzzling.

“Qingqing, are you sick?

You look so listless,” Han Ruoyao sat next to Su Ziqing and patted her back.

The two are now best friends who tell each other everything, but Su Ziqing’s recent state has been strange to Han Ruoyao.

“Yaoyao, my brother-in-law has gone to Europe, and my sister followed him, I’m so bored by myself,” Su Ziqing said, looking drowsy, clearly not embodying her usual impish charm.

“Yeah, uncle’s calls haven’t been getting through recently.

It’s really strange,” Han Ruoyao nodded.

Su Ziqing was aware of this situation as well.

“Could something have happened to my brother-in-law?” Su Ziqing showed concern.

“How could anything happen?

Uncle is so formidable.

My dad said that not a single person in the entire special police force is as good as uncle,” Han Ruoyao waved her hand dismissively.

“But, I still feel something’s off,” said Su Ziqing.

“Come on, you better get ready for the debate competition.

Look over there,” Han Ruoyao pointed at a table opposite them where a young girl was studiously reviewing her materials, her girl-next-door vibe attracting the gazes of many male peers.

“You’re talking about Li Mengmeng,” Su Ziqing said.

The person Han Ruoyao pointed at was none other than Li Mengmeng, whom they had met before.

“That’s right, don’t forget, she has a crush on uncle.

If you lose the competition to her, won’t you lose face in front of uncle?” Han Ruoyao scoffed, clearly not very fond of Li Mengmeng.

“That’s true,” Su Ziqing perked up after hearing this.

As a competitor from Beitian University, Li Mengmeng was also an academic overachiever.

With Su Ziqing in her current state, it would only make it easier for Li Mengmeng to take advantage.

“Wait a second, Yaoyao, don’t you have a crush on my brother-in-law too?” Su Ziqing thought about it, glanced at Han Ruoyao, who was smirking, and her words immediately made the proud Han Ruoyao feel flustered.

“That…

that…”

“Look at you, Yaoyao, playing so cunning, getting me to be the fall guy,” Su Ziqing felt displeased and made a scornful gesture.

“Qingqing, my relationship with uncle is purely innocent; don’t talk nonsense.

Now, hurry up and prepare your materials,” Han Ruoyao quickly changed the topic, as she indeed had felt guilty just before.

At this moment, Li Mengmeng slowly walked over and sat directly opposite them, offering a cup of hot water to Su Ziqing and said with concern, “Qingqing, are you feeling unwell?”
