Chapter 148 Former Fiancé?

There are still two days until Shen Qingli's press conference.

But by this time, the capital city was already bustling with activity, and with the help of various opinions, the atmosphere among the people was brought to its peak!
Banners were hung all over the streets and alleys of the capital city, and the high-definition screens of the commercial buildings also played Shen Qingli's pre-conference speech on a rotating basis. Tickets were extremely hard to come by, and were being resold for tens of millions of star coins each!
Everyone praised the imperial princess for her unparalleled beauty, exceptional wisdom, and blessings upon all living beings.

The entire empire is eagerly awaiting the release of the new inhibitor!

Various public opinion storms combined to push Shen Qingli's status to its peak, making her unparalleled in popularity, even surpassing the current emperor!
The people of the empire cheered for the princess, praising her as a legendary goddess and a messenger sent by the gods.

She also has a large number of enthusiastic fans who gather in the streets and alleys to persuade others, which is comparable to a large-scale pyramid scheme.

Shen Tang had been staying in the hotel for the past two days and had heard about these crazy things, which made her marvel.

I wonder how the Empire will react when she breaks Shen Qingli's undefeated myth at the press conference.
Two days passed in a flash. Shen Tang specially changed into a simpler outfit and went to the press conference with her husbands.

After the last incident, most of the orcs in the empire knew that Princess Shen Tang, the useless princess, had returned.

The guards at the scene recognized Shen Tang and stopped the group.

The guards were filled with suspicion. Why would this useless princess come here?
She wasn't invited to the press conference, was she?

Having learned her lesson, Shen Qingli, who had previously tried to outsmart the system but ended up losing more, was smarter this time. She only wanted the press conference to end smoothly and naturally wouldn't cause trouble. She didn't invite Shen Tang to the event.

Privately, she even instructed the guards at the venue to stop Shen Tang if they encountered her and absolutely not let her in!

The guards looked at Shen Tang with disdain and asked contemptuously, "To enter the press conference, you need an invitation. Do you have one, sir?"

Shen Tang was naturally not qualified to receive an invitation.

But just because she didn't have it doesn't mean her husband didn't.

Lu Xiao stepped forward and took out an invitation from his pocket. "I'm very interested in Princess Shen Qingli's press conference, and I brought my family here specifically to watch it. You can't even go in?"

As the heir of the Lu family, Lu Xiao naturally received an invitation. For important occasions like press conferences, guests can bring their families to attend; this is an unwritten rule.

The guards had strange expressions. They were just doing their jobs for money and had no right to stop distinguished guests. They could only let the group pass.

Someone quickly informed Shen Qingli and the Emperor and Empress about this.

Shen Tang didn't care; after all, they would be meeting again soon.

Upon entering the Empire State Building, a middle-aged orc, surrounded by his attendants, walks towards you.

The man was dressed in luxurious clothes, with a resolute face and an indescribable sharpness about him. At first glance, one would think that he was definitely a ruthless character, and wonder which high-ranking official or nobleman of the empire he was.

The middle-aged man glanced at Shen Tang, his brows furrowed, and a deep disdain flashed in his cold eyes. He coldly cursed, "Hmph, I didn't check the almanac before I went out today, and I actually ran into this unlucky thing!"

Having said that, he turned and left with his servants as if he had encountered some filthy garbage.

Shen Tang was inexplicably scolded and was completely bewildered.

Who is this old man?

She didn't provoke him, did she?

She searched through the original owner's memories but couldn't find any of this person's memories; he was probably some unrelated person.

You can get yelled at while walking down the street.

Has her reputation gotten this bad?

Shen Li looked at her and said with a smile, "Little Tang, don't you remember the head of the Yun family?"

"The head of the Yun family?" Upon hearing this, a name came to Shen Tang's mind: Yun Hong.

Both the Yun and Lu families were founding heroes, practically the right-hand men of the royal family, controlling nearly half of the empire's military power. The original owner of this body was a bully who preyed on the weak; surely she wouldn't dare offend the head of the Yun family, would she?
"Why does the head of the Yun family hate me so much?" Shen Tang was completely baffled.

A dark glint flashed in Shen Lilian's alluring fox-like eyes, and her smile became even gentler. "Isn't it all because of your marriage to his son back then?"

Shen Tang nearly choked on her saliva, her face filled with horror, "What?"

Shen Li laughed, "Don't you remember Yun Han, little Tang'er? He's your favorite male beast, the one you've been longing for—"

He spoke slowly and deliberately, his voice soft.

"Ex-fiancé."

Shen Tang's lips twitched slightly. The original owner's memories were fragmented, so how could she know where her ex-husband came from?
Seeing that she really didn't remember, Lu Xiao explained in a low voice, "Yun Han is the heir of the Yun family. He is handsome and talented. You fell in love with him at first sight at the banquet and begged the emperor to grant you two a marriage."

“But Yunhan doesn’t like you. He rejected your marriage proposal and even tore up the engagement in front of you.”

Lu Xiao's words were relatively tactful.

The truth back then was that the heir of the Yun family looked down on Shen Tang at all, and publicly berated her, saying that she was an ugly and stupid woman who was not worthy of him.

In front of the emperor and empress, he tore up the marriage certificate and stomped on it to humiliate Shen Tang.

Shen Tang became a laughing stock of the empire overnight.

After Shen Tang was stripped of her identity and exiled, the esteemed heir of the Yun family even publicly declared that he would let her die in the polluted land and never be able to come back!
Shen Li and the others had suspected that Yun Han was also involved in the assassination of Shen Tang back then.

No matter how much Shen Qingli hated Shen Tang, she was still a princess with little real power at the time and had no right to mobilize troops.

The Yun family wields considerable military power, making it incredibly easy for them to arrange for assassinations by their secret guards.

Shen Tang remembered what Lu Xiao said.

The original owner was extremely fond of Yun Han and even swore in public that if Yun Han was willing to marry her, he would be her only legitimate husband.

From then on, she would never marry another male beast.

Such a promise of one love for life is something every male beast dreams of.

Unfortunately, the heir of the Yun family looked down on the original owner of the body and was disgusted by her persistent and unreasonable behavior.

His true love, the white moonlight, is the female lead, Shen Qingli.

After breaking off her engagement with Shen Tang, Yun Han proposed to marry Shen Qingli.

After the two got engaged, the original owner became furious, believing that Shen Qingli had stolen everything from her, and became increasingly deranged, even more recklessly targeting the female lead.

"I didn't see Yun Han when I came back last time."

Xiao Jin, Shen Li, and Jia Lan all looked at Shen Tang with some nervousness.

They had all heard the rumors and knew how much Shen Tang liked the Yun family heir whom she loved but could not have. Now, hearing her mention it so casually with an indifferent expression, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Xiao explained, "Ever since he heard you were back, Yun Han has used the excuse of training to leave the capital. He's been gone for three months and we don't know when he'll be back."

Shen Tang's lips twitched slightly. Was that Yun family heir avoiding her?

It made her seem like a vengeful ghost haunting him.

The original owner was deeply in love with him but could not have him. Shen Tang had no interest in him and quickly put the matter out of his mind to go to the press conference.
