1304 Chapter 41 Mao Mao Love Story

Long An Lie blinked, staring at the boy’s side face. Her face flushed red.

The boy looked like the weakly type but how come his smile was so charming??

The image of his pretty emerald eyes staring at her kept emerging in her mind. His soft, calming voice made her ear felt hot.

It was the first time she saw a boy like that, looking like a graceful immortal.

Long An Lie couldn’t help but keep staring at the boy until Long Ye Sí pinched her thigh.

"Behave." The twin brother growled at her sister.

Long An Lie rarely meets boys of her age as the nobles at their kingdom feared her power. It’s understandable the girl was acting like this but...

Long Ye Sí squinted his eyes at the pegasus prince and snorted.

’That bastard looks so weak.’

Being pinched, Long An Lie could only grimace in pain and behaved. She didn’t stare at the boy sitting next to her anymore but would steal a glance once in a while.

At this moment, the royals from 7 kingdoms had gathered. The nobles had also come and Mao Mao was already sitting below Long An Lie’s seat.

He’s the only young official in the room thus it couldn’t be helped that he got to sit near the royals.

In fact, not only the royals were catching the nobles’ attention but also Mao Mao. The young girls were staring at him as if he was a delicious meal ready to be eaten.

The gaze was hurting Mao Mao. The young man sighed as he looked around trying to find Fen Wén. In less than a second, he saw a girl in cyan dress was standing at the corner of the hall.

! Fen Wén!

Mao Mao’s face brightened. His eyes met the girl’s eyes.

The young man thought that the girl would nod or something but upon seeing him, Fen Wén suddenly looked away, avoiding his gaze.

Mao Mao’s smile froze on his face.

’Why?’ Mao Mao stared at Fen Wén who looked like a scared squirrel.

Did he do something to disappoint her?

Mao Mao thought hard but nothing come to his mind. Yet after thinking for a few seconds, he finally came to a conclusion.

Fen Wén avoided him must be because they were in a formal situation. Maybe she didn’t want to look intimate with her master?

The thought calmed Mao Mao and the young man sipped his tea looking composed. He had just sorted his mind when suddenly, a servant came with an announcement in his hand.

"Greeting, your highness, " the servant bowed to the prince of the Phoenix kingdom as he’s the host of the banquet.

"Raise. What’s your business?" The prince squinted his eyes as he crossed his legs, looking domineering.

"This servant got an urgent announcement from his majesty the emperor of Long Kingdom, " The servant glanced at Mao Mao before he lowered his head.

"Announcement? Go ahead then." The prince nodded, allowing the servant to read the announcement out loud.

"This servant will read the announcement now..." The servant raised and opened the scroll he was holding. He scanned the guests and coughed slightly before speaking in a loud voice.

"Congratulation to his excellency Xiong Mao for his engagement with Lady Tian from the Tian family. May your engagement be blessed with happiness."

The servant’s words just fell when the prince of the Phoneix kingdom clapped, "That’s a joyous occasion! How about we let them open the banquet officially?"

The prince had been told by his father about this beforehand. As the Long Kingdom was the one issuing this union, their representative should be the one opening the banquet with a dance.

"The lovebirds can show us the symbol of our kingdoms unity, the waltz dance." The prince added, leaving no time for Mao Mao to refute.

Mao Mao’s face turned dark as he clenched his jaw.

’What’s going on? Engagement? I never agree to that!’

Mao Mao wanted to shout and denied the announcement but knowing it must be Long Ao Zhen’s doing, he could only shut his mouth.

The image of Fen Wén suddenly crossed his mind and

the young man hurriedly looked at Fen Wén wanting to say that the engagement wasn’t his will when he saw the girl only looked at the floor.

Her shoulders were trembling but no one could see her face.

Mao Mao felt a pang to his chest. He suddenly realized that he didn’t want Fen Wén to misunderstood.

And why was that?

’Because...I love her...’ Mao Mao gripped his palm tight when the prince of the Phoenix kingdom called his name.

"Lord Mao? Go ahead, you can officially open the banquet." The prince smiled until his eyes formed a straight line yet Mao Mao didn’t smile at all.

"Yes, " the young man nodded before descending the stairs to the hall. His whole face was rigid as he approached Tian Rong at the female guest area.

"Milady, would you like to dance?" Mao Mao gritted his teeth as he smiled, stretching his hand to Tian Rong.

The girl was blushing as she stood up and put her hand on Mao Mao’s palm.

"My pleasure, " Tian Rong followed Mao Mao to the centre of the hall as she kept a smile on her face.

’I have to find the right time to apologize and tell him...’ The girl thought as she put her hand on Mao Mao’s shoulder.

The waltz dance his majesty created forced the dancers to touch each other’s body. Not to mention the distance was quite close, no wonder it should be done with fiancee or fiance.

The dance looks quite intimate after all!
