Chapter 2163: New Year’s Eve

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Ah You quickly realized that His Highness was talking about Miss Bo.

Ah You braced himself and nodded. “If Your Highness can’t see, it should be blocked.”

Ye Jie stared at his phone, his handsome face looking extremely dark and cold.

Ah You focused on driving, trying to ignore the falling temperature in the car.

Ye Jie stared at the screenshot sent by Tang Mo all the way to the palace.

It was the end of the year and the research institute had given her ten days of leave. She stayed at home in the Bo family’s sunroom. She was nestled in an armchair, wearing a yellow turtleneck sweater with her long hair draped over her shoulders. She was holding a wooden carving that looked like her

and smiled sweetly at the camera.

Fair skin, red lips and white teeth.

She was beautiful, bright and charming.

He could tell that she was really happy.

Ye Jie’s expression darkened.

The car stopped and Ah You said carefully, “Your Highness, the plane you booked is ready. Are you giving it to Miss Bo on New Year’s Eve?”

Ye Jie looked at Bo Cixue’s smiling face on the phone and pursed his lips tightly, not saying anything for a while.

The Southern Region Princess, You Lan, was arrogant and lively. After she came to the capital with the Southern Region King, the King and Queen arranged for them to stay in the palace.

As soon as Ye Jie returned to the palace, You Lan, who was dressed in blue, ran out.

“Brother Crown Prince.”

You Lan was the Southern King’s most doted youngest daughter. She looked different from other women and was rather beautiful like her mother. When she smiled, her eyes were clear and bright and she looked like Bo Cixue when she was seventeen or eighteen years old.

Ye Jie nodded at You Lan calmly.

Seeing that he had entered the palace without saying a word, You Lan followed behind him. “Brother Crown Prince, my father wants us to get married. That day, you told me that you have a girl you like, but I’ve been in the palace for a few days and only saw you busy with work. I didn’t see you contact any

girls. Did you lie to me on purpose to reject me?”

You Lan pouted. “You don’t have a girl you like at all, do you”

Looking at You Lan’s coy and innocent appearance, Ye Jie said lightly, “You’ll see her at the New Year’s banquet.”

With that said, he strode upstairs before You Lan could react.

Tiantian came out of the kitchen and happened to see this.

You Lan was about the same age as her. After interacting with her for a few days, she was not that bad, but she was straightforward and childish. Even Tiantian felt that she was definitely not the type of person her brother liked.

However, the young girl did not know it and thought that she was beautiful, talented, and cute. Any man would like her.

When You Lan saw Tiantian, she ran over and grabbed her arm. “Tiantian, your brother said that he has a girl he likes. Is that true? Is that girl as pretty as me?”

Thinking of Sister Apple, Tiantian lifted her chin proudly. “Of course, the woman my brother likes is naturally the prettiest. Besides, she’s extremely talented and charming.”

You Lan did not believe him.

However, she was not in a hurry. She would meet her legendary love rival at the New Year’s banquet.

Every year at the New Year’s banquet, the palace would invite all the noble families.

The Tang family was naturally invited as well.

Mrs Tang asked the stylist and stylist to come over in the afternoon to help Nan Xun dress up.

Tang Mo recently realized that his mother was getting more and more concerned about Nan Xun. His daughter-in-law seemed to be more important than his son.

Mrs Tang was a smart person. She could tell how Tang Mo felt about Nan Xun.

However, Tang Mo could not say anything nice with his mouth and his temper was explosive. If Mrs Tang treated Nan Xun better, Nan Xun could still give her face if he wanted to leave in the future.

It was actually for Tang Mo’s future.

Tang Mo’s main doctor came to check on Tang Mo’s body. Nan Xun returned to her room after putting on her makeup and saw the main doctor. The two of them chatted for a while and after the main doctor left, Tang Mo did not look good to Nan Xun.

One moment, she would say that she could not become Xi Shi even with makeup, and the next moment, she would say that she could not afford a gown and could consider going for an operation.

Any woman would be angry when they heard such words, let alone Nan Xun, his wife.

“Alright, I’m ugly and my figure is not good. I’ll go with Mom to the banquet later and you can find a female companion.”

Nan Xun really ignored Tang Mo. When they arrived at the palace, she held Mrs Tang’s arm and they were as close as mother and daughter.

Tang Mo later realized that he had gone overboard with his words. He wanted to ease their relationship, but Nan Xun did not even want to look at him.

Mrs Tang did not help her and even said that he was courting death!

Now that the two women in the family were venting their anger together, he had no status at all!

Ever since the banquet started, You Lan had been observing the interaction between Ye Jie and the guests.

In the Southern Region, they could not destroy the relationship of the person they liked.

If he did not, he would be able to pursue her.

She wanted to confirm if the Crown Prince had a girlfriend.

The socialites in the capital were all exquisite and beautiful, elegant and noble. They looked different from the girls in the Southern Region.

However, the merits of the Southern Region girls were also what the socialites lacked.

‘As the Crown Prince and one of the hosts of the banquet in the palace, Ye Jie had to greet every guest who came and he was rather busy.

But while he was busy, he paid attention to the movements at the door.

Bo Yan and his family came before the banquet officially started.

Bo Yan and Yan Hua were with Bo Jingyu, but not Bo Cixue.

Ye Jie frowned slightly.

Bo Yan and his family went forward to greet the King, Queen and Crown Prince.

Nan Zhi asked, “Why isn’t Little Apple here?”

“The girl caught a cold and is not feeling well,” Bo Yan said.

Ye Jie pursed his thin lips tightly. In the past few years, apart from the few years she was studying in M Country, she had never come to the New Year banquet. Every year, she would come no matter what.

There was once when she endured a high fever and came over. He asked her why she was not resting at home and she said that she wanted to come and say Happy New Year to him!

Her bright eyes and playful smile when she spoke seemed to be still vivid in his mind. When he regained his senses, he could not find her in his clothes.

Ye Jie found Nan Xun and said a few words to her, asking, “Can you tell me why Cixue didn’t come tonight?”

Nan Xun smiled and shook her head. “I’m not sure. You should ask Uncle Bo and the rest!”

Ye Jie did not continue asking. After nodding, he talked to the guests who came to greet him.

You Lan had been watching Ye Jie’s movements and when she saw him talking to Nan Xun, she immediately thought that Nan Xun was the girl he liked.

She was indeed good-looking, but she looked more serious and stiff. How could she be as cheerful and lively as the women in the Southern Region?

This was the first new year after Nan Xun married into the Tang family. Mrs Tang brought her to meet many expensive guests.

Halfway through the banquet, Nan Xun went to the washroom.

The moment she entered, a figure followed her.

Nan Xun turned back and was slightly confused when she saw the young and tall girl standing behind her. “You are?”

“I’m the Southern Region King’s youngest daughter, You Lan.” You Lan looked at Nan Xun and raised her chin slightly. “Are you the woman the Crown Prince likes?”

Nan Xun’s lips twitched.

How did the young girl know that she was the woman the Crown Prince liked?

Could it be because he had spoken to her in the banquet hall earlier?

“princess You Lan, firstly, I’m not the woman the Crown Prince likes. Secondly, I’m already married. I’m the Young Madam of the Tang family.”

You Lan frowned. “Impossible. Brother Crown Prince said that the woman he likes will come tonight. Besides, he only spoke to you alone tonight.”

Nan Xun smirked. “Why should I lie about this?”

Nan Xun planned to go out, but You Lan stopped her. “Then tell me, who does Brother Crown Prince like?”

“Tm a married woman. I’m not interested in the Crown Prince’s private matters.” Nan Xun looked at You Lan. “If you want to know, you should go out and ask him!”

You Lan clenched her fists and turned to leave the washroom.

She did not believe that she would not be able to see the girl the Crown Prince liked tonight!

After You Lan left, Nan Xun took out his phone from his bag and called Bo Cixue.

“Fortunately, you didn’t come and another love rival appeared.”

Bo Cixue was stunned for a moment before she smiled. “It’s nothing unexpected. He’s single and as the Crown Prince, there will naturally be girls who like him.”

“It’s the Princess of the Southern Region. She’s just an adult and looks beautiful.”

Bo Cixue only hummed faintly, her emotions calm.

Nan Xun furrowed his eyebrows slightly when he saw Bo Cixue’s calm reaction. “Beauty Bo, do you really not care anymore? He even asked me why you didn’t come earlier. To be honest, I still feel a little regretful seeing the two of you like this.”

Bo Cixue smiled. “Why do you still want to be a matchmaker? To be honest, I’m going to celebrate the New Year with Caesar now.”

Nan Xun was stunned for a moment. When she regained her senses, she exclaimed, “You’re not coming to the banquet in the palace because you want to celebrate the New Year with Caesar? Don’t tell me you’re really moved by Caesar? I don’t believe it!”

Bo Cixue laughed. “What did I do to force a career woman to do this? Actually, I can’t explain my feelings for Caesar. I seem to be a little interested, but I feel that I’m missing something… I’ll talk to you later. I’m going to the fireworks square.”

Ah You followed Ye Jie’s instructions and after Nan Xun and You Lan entered the female washroom one after another, he sent someone to guard outside.

Although the people sent did not hear what Bo Cixue had said, they could roughly guess where Bo Cixue had gone from Nan Xun’s words.

‘Ah You did not dare to delay and rushed to the banquet hall to find Ye Jie. “Your Highness, as you expected, after Princess You Lan found Mrs Tang, Mrs Tang called Miss Bo.”

Ye Jie’s expression was dark and his eyes cold. “What did he say?”

“Lonly heard the rough details. Miss Bo is going to the Fireworks Square to celebrate the New Year with Caesar tonight.”

Ye Jie frowned. That Caesar was here again?
