People in Douluo, the mastermind behind the scenes

Chapter 190 190. Why do some people like tablets?
At the moment when the two of them stepped into the Sea God Island area, Yunxi hurriedly pulled Aying's arm and said in a deep voice: "Bingyu, why did you stop me just now? That Gu Yuhan is really too outrageous. He can even say that he dances on someone's grave. If he were to go to the funeral, who knows what kind of trouble he would cause."

Ah Ying said angrily: "Yunxi, did you take the wrong medicine today? Why do you care about such trivial matters? Just pass the message on. You are not the head of the Sea God Pavilion, why do you care about it?"

Ah this...

With Aying's reminder, Yunxi finally realized that something was wrong. She always felt that... there was something weird about the Huo Mansion. As soon as she stepped into the gate of the Huo Mansion, her intelligence seemed to have dropped by several degrees, and she couldn't recover for a long time.

"Forget it. If there is anything in the future, let the people below notify you. If you can avoid going to the Huo Mansion, then don't go. It's too damn weird."

Yunxi murmured something, followed Aying back to the office on the top floor of Poseidon Pavilion, and continued to live the life of a hard-working worker.

……

Qin Yi didn't know that his "death" triggered a series of butterfly effects, and he didn't bother to know. At this moment, he... was still trying his best to play the role of Zhu Ningyu.

Looking at the flat lady in front of her, Hong Ling scratched her head subconsciously and said with embarrassment: "Sir, how about... you put some padding in it? It's too flat and it won't look good in a dress."

"No need. Dresses are too bulky. I don't like that kind of clothes. It's not convenient for me to walk."

As he spoke, Zhu Ningyu took out a brocade robe from his storage ring and put it on.

A man dressing up as a woman and then as a man can be considered as adding an extra layer of insurance to his identity.

Seeing this, Hong Ling pursed her lips and said with a strange expression: "Sir, are you going to attend this dance as a man?"

"That's not necessary." Zhu Ningyu waved her hand and said expressionlessly, "There is no explicit rule in the Sun-Moon Empire that female spirit masters can only attend large banquets in women's clothing, right? The more guilty a person is, the more they should lower their sense of presence. On the contrary... the weirder they behave, the less attention the Sun-Moon Empire officials will pay."

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Hurry up and put on your makeup. As a member of the Hongchen family, it would not be good to be late."

Hong Ling herself was not ugly. Her appearance was considered above average among the thousands of top female soul masters. She only needed to use makeup to cover up the blemishes on her face.

After finishing their makeup, the two of them linked their arms and walked out of the pawn shop.

"Hey, Xiao Mengmeng, is there no one left in the Hongchen family? Is your eldest daughter going to come out to greet guests?"

When Hong Ling saw Meng Hongchen sitting at the gate of Mingyue Hotel, she walked forward quickly, her confusion evident in her words.

"Aunt Bai, don't you know?" Meng Hongchen blinked, and the expression on his face became more solemn.

Hong Ling asked with a puzzled look on her face: "Know what? Did something big happen to the Hongchen family?"

"Big deal? It's not a big deal." Meng Hongchen said unhappily, "At noon today, the Mingdetang warehouse suddenly caught fire. The Hongchen family is investigating the cause of the fire and cannot spare any manpower for the moment, so I can only play the guest role of welcoming guests."

"I say, grandpa and the others are just making a fuss. They didn't burn anything important. Why do they have to mobilize so many troops?" Hong Ling said with a smile, "After all, these are extraordinary times. The head of the Hongchen Hall has his own considerations. It's always better to be careful. If nothing unexpected happens, your brother will become a god and go to the God Realm. You will replace him as the head of the Hongchen Family, so you must have the necessary experience."

After chatting for a while, seeing that the guests coming to the ball had arrived at the entrance of Mingyue Hotel one after another, Hong Ling stopped disturbing Meng Hongchen and walked into the hotel holding Zhu Ningyu's arm.

The banquet hall was on the top floor of Mingyue Hotel. The two stood at the door and looked out. Young men and women in gorgeous clothes were strolling in the banquet hall, as if they were looking for their own someone.

"Why does it feel like a group wedding?" Zhu Ningyu said softly.

Hong Ling explained with a smile: "Didn't you see? The people who came to the ball were basically the younger generation of soul masters. There were very few older people. They were all so-called older single men and women. The purpose of holding an engagement ceremony was not to hold an engagement ceremony. The purpose was to build a platform so that the young men and women from the major soul master families in Mingdu could have a chance to communicate privately, and then... hehe, you know."

Hearing this, Zhu Ningyu teased, "So... the fact that you got invited means you're still an older leftover woman?"

"Hehe, if you don't know how to talk, just say less. If you don't talk, no one will think you are dumb."

As she spoke, Hong Ling pretended to be angry and punched Zhu Ningyu on the shoulder several times.

It seemed that the two of them were arguing too loudly, and a group of onlookers looked over in the direction of the sound. The next moment, a young man in a gorgeous brocade robe walked over from the crowd, walked around Hong Ling, and pretended to hold Zhu Ningyu's hand.

Zhu Ningyu pretended to be frightened and quickly retreated to the rear.

The young man in brocade robe seemed to be aware of his own problem. He quickly bowed towards Zhu Ningyu and said apologetically, "Miss, I'm really sorry. I was rude. I apologize. From birth to now, this is the first time I've met a girl like you. You're exactly the type I've always dreamed of. I couldn't help myself and..."

Hong Ling: “…”

Zhu Ningyu: ?????

Why do some people like flat-paneled queens? What kind of fetish is this?
Qin Yi originally thought that he could prevent himself from being approached by men by pinching the body of a flat queen. He never expected that there would be people with such special hobbies in the world. It was really rare to see such a thing in his life.

Zhu Ningyu raised her eyebrows and said in a cold tone: "I am naturally cold and indifferent. Apart from family affection, I don't have any extra emotions, so... it's impossible for the two of us to be together. Don't bother me anymore."

The young man in brocade robe said hurriedly: "Miss, being born cold is a disease, it seems to be called... Oh, I can't remember the name of the disease, but it doesn't matter, it can be cured with a few prescriptions. My Ma family is rich and powerful, so this little money is not a problem."

"This disease must be treated early. If it is treated too late, you will not be able to have offspring."

As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of the noble men and women present changed one after another. Who... Whose idiot is this? He has brought shame to the nobles of the Sun-Moon Empire.

"Where are the guards? Where are the guards? Hurry up and get this disgraceful guy out. Send him back to the family for confinement! Don't let him come out again. He deserves it!"

Ma Rulong walked out from the backstage with a dark face, grabbed his cousin's ear, and forcibly dragged him out of the banquet hall.
