Chapter 639: Meeting the Princess When Choosing a Gift

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

During the peak season of travel, it was not new for thieves to be rampant.

But Sophia had never thought that such a thing would happen to her, let alone her bag.

“We’ve already called the police over. Don’t even think about leaving,” the maid who rushed over hurriedly said.

The moment the bag was stolen, the maid called the police. The commercial street was a key area, and in a few minutes, someone would come over and take the thief away.

“Don’t—” The thief immediately looked bitter.

The three people present didn’t listen to him.

Moreover, ever since Huo Yichen returned, Sofia’s gaze had been on him for most of the time.

“Thank you for helping me find my bag,” Sofia said to Huo Yichen.

She secretly clenched her fists on her skirt, especially when she met Huo Yichen’s gaze. She couldn’t help but be annoyed that she didn’t wear her most beautiful set of clothes today.

Especially when she saw Murong Qiao standing beside Huo Yichen dressed so beautifully, her mood worsened.

Huo Yichen shook his head. “It was nothing. If there’s nothing else, we’ll leave first.”

It was just catching a thief, so there was no need to make a statement. Moreover, Sofia and another girl were here.

Compared to talking about the thief here, Huo Yichen cherished every minute and second with Murong Qiao more.

“Wait!” Sofia subconsciously wanted to call out to Huo Yichen.

However, this was not her palace. Coupled with the noise, Sofia’s voice was directly drowned out.

The maid standing at the side protected her from being squeezed by the others “Princess, let’s go back?”

If the queen found out that the princess had been robbed by a thief, she would definitely be punished.

“If you want to go back, go back yourself.” How could Sofia be willing to go back at this time? She didn’t get to know that person yet.

In view of the fact that they had yet to finish buying the gifts and that they were interrupted by the thief, Murong Qiao first brought Huo Yichen to pay for the things she had already taken a fancy to.

“This is An Nuo’s, and this for Ruan Ying and Shen Xi… the gifts for Big Brother and the others are also here…”

Murong Qiao quickly checked.

Huo Yichen raised his eyebrows when he heard this and realized that Murong Qiao didn’t buy anything for herself.

He swept his gaze around and locked onto a sky-blue hair ornament with bits of diamonds and silver outlines. He reached out and took it to settle the bill. “Don’t just think about others.” Huo Yichen wiped the hair ornament that had been paid for and gently helped Murong Qiao put it on her hair. “This suits you very well.”

Murong Qiao stood motionless in front of Huo Yichen and nodded, obediently letting the other party fix the ornament on her head.

This scene happened to be seen by Sofia, who had chased over.

Murong Qiao’s gaze happened to meet Sofia’s. Then, she saw her walking towards them.

“Sorry to disturb you. I’m Sofia.” She took the initiative to walk over and introduce herself.

The maid behind the princess saw that Sofia was suddenly so polite to two strangers.

“Hello,” Murong Qiao said.

But Sofia stared at Huo Yichen. “I haven’t thanked you… two… for what happened just now.”

At the end of her sentence, she added the word ‘two’ with a hint of reluctance.

“That bag is very important to me.” She casually made an excuse. “As a thank you, I can bring you around to play! I’m a local.”

As Sofia spoke, she looked at Huo Yichen, intentionally or otherwise. The restlessness in her heart had yet to completely subside.

Murong Qiao was still wondering what Sofia meant when she felt someone hug her shoulder first.

“My fiancee and I were planning to walk around by ourselves,” Huo Yichen said.

Sofia’s smile froze slightly when she heard Huo Yichen’s words.

The maid stood at the side and watched secretly, not daring to speak.

However, based on her understanding of the princess, Sofia was definitely in a bad mood at this moment. It was so bad that she could be scolded badly.

Murong Qiao secretly glanced at Huo Yichen and nodded. “Yes, the two of us are here for a vacation.”

Although Sofia had vaguely guessed the relationship between Huo Yichen and Murong Qiao when she first saw them, she still felt uncomfortable when she heard the other party personally say that the two of them were engaged.

She bit her lip and then returned to normal. “Isn’t that just nice? I’m local and familiar with this place. I can bring you guys to play.”

Then, no matter how tactful Murong Qiao and Huo Yichen were or how they rejected her, Sofia was very “passionate”.

Helpless, rhey could only agree to go with Sofia.

“I can bring you back to my house as guests. The scenery there is also very good.”

When Sofia heard the two of them agree, she was immediately happy. She even immediately had the thought of bringing the two of them back to the palace. She didn’t believe that Huo Yichen would still ignore her like this after finding out that she was a princess.

Seeing Sofia say this, Murong Qiao looked at Huo Yichen beside him and had a guess about Sofia’s identity.

It was probably because she was the eldest daughter of some family.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t be so spoiled.

Seeing that the car that was coming to pick Sofia up had arrived, Murong Qiao and Huo Yichen got into the car too.

The others quickly found out that Sofia was bringing them to the palace, especially Mira, who had always been instructed by Elvi to take care of her Little Sister. She paid even more attention to this matter.

When she returned to her house, the first thing she had to do was to change out of her ugly clothes. Therefore, she could only ask the servant to take Murong Qiao and Huo Yichen to the main court to wait for a while.

When she finally returned home, Sofia could not wait to show Huo Yichen what her real self was like.

At first, when the car drove in, Murong Qiao felt something. Then, she saw the incomparably gorgeous place in front of her that had the characteristics of the royal family of Country X. She couldn’t help but have a new impression of this girl.

“Looks like we’ve met an incredible girl.” Murong Qiao teased Huo Yichen with a smile.

She could meet a princess when she went out. This probability made her a little interested in buying the lottery.

Huo Yichen clearly saw through it too. “I find it troublesome.”

It was difficult to ignore Sofia’s “hot” gaze on him.

Moreover, Sofia’s appearance had disrupted his original plan to bring Murong Qiao out to play. Now that the two of them were in the palace, it was not good for them to leave first.

The etiquette was laid out here, and it was in someone else’s territory. Sofia had yet to return, so it was not good to leave.

“I originally wanted to bring you to a nearby artisan shop to take a look. I wonder if we’ll be able to make it in time after saying goodbye later.” Huo Yichen raised his hand and glanced at the time on his wristwatch.

Murong Qiao’s interest was piqued by this topic. “Unfortunately, I’m afraid we can’t leave early today.”

When she saw Sofia bring them back excitedly, Murong Qiao felt that they had to stay longer this time.

“Please follow me.” The maid appeared at the side appropriately and gestured in the direction for the two of them..
