A vicious female is trapped in a beastly hell.

Chapter 227 Gift
Yun Han's gaze swept across her face, filled with inquiry and deep meaning. His thin lips parted slightly.

"You've changed quite a bit these days."

Shen Tang smiled at him, her expression devoid of emotion, hypocritical and polite. "As the ancients said, 'A scholar should be looked at with new eyes after three days of separation.'"

He scoffed, "That's not what I meant!"

“Today is Princess Qingli’s birthday banquet. With so many people watching, it’s not proper for Young Master Yunhan to suddenly come over and question people so aggressively.” Shen Li stood up and walked up to him with a smile.

He blocked Yun Han's probing, gloomy gaze and shielded the female behind him.

Jialan leaned back, crossed her arms, and swept her cool, narrow blue eyes over the two unfriendly strangers. Her thin lips curled into a defiant smile. "I remember someone used to ignore us? Why are you showing up here today? Could it be that you've regretted breaking off the engagement?"

Yun Han coldly swept her gaze over him, her eyes like knives, her heart filled with disdain and mockery.

Regret?

The word "regret" doesn't exist in his dictionary!
A foreign prince who was married into the country, whose strength is only at the early stage of the seventh rank, dares to provoke him to his face?

Thinking this, Yun Han's dark eyes narrowed instantly, and a chilling aura emanated from his body!

Xiao Jin was extremely sensitive to killing intent. He jumped up and rushed forward, shouting, "What? If Young Master Yun Han wants to make a move, let's go out and settle this immediately!"

Yun Han turned to look at him, her expression disdainful and mocking, "You think you can be my opponent?"

Yun Han had been in the army for many years and knew Xiao Jin. He knew that Xiao Jin had good talent and strength and was now a peak seventh-tier orc who could fight an eighth-tier orc one-on-one. But if you wanted to be presumptuous in front of him, you were still far from it!

Xue Yinzhou conjured a snake tail, silently encircling Shen Tang along with the table and chairs within its protective range.

He spoke through his thin lips, his vertical pupils sweeping coldly over the arrogant Yun Han, and calmly said, "You are not the only ninth-level expert present."

As soon as he said this, everyone's eyes fell on him.

As a secret guard, Xue Yinzhou rarely appears in public. Even when he does appear, he almost completely conceals his aura, making it difficult for people to notice his presence.

But at this moment, his ninth-level pressure surged forth like a tidal wave!

The surrounding beastmen felt an instinctive suppression emanating from their bloodline, making them uncontrollably want to kneel down and express their submission! They were utterly terrified!

Yun Han also composed himself, a hint of surprise and apprehension flashing in his narrow, dark eyes. He hadn't expected that this male slave would also break through to the ninth rank.

Looking across the entire Nightbright Empire, there are only a handful of ninth-tier orcs, and among the younger generation, he is the only one to have broken through to the next level.

What is the origin of this serpent beast? Is it really just an ordinary male slave?
If the two were to fight, they would probably be evenly matched.

Add to that Xiao Jin and the others... two fists can't fight four hands, he probably won't gain the upper hand.

The two sides were locked in a standoff, with tensions running high.

The orcs present trembled with fear and dared not speak, lest they be caught in the crossfire!

Shen Qingli never expected her carefully prepared birthday party to turn out like this.

At the same time, she also vaguely felt that Yun Han's attitude was a bit abnormal, and was afraid that he really had his eye on that bitch, so she quickly tugged at his arm and interrupted him softly, "Alright, it's just a birthday party, why are you making such a fuss!"

She looked at Shen Tang and her group with guilt, "Brother Yun Han was just a little curious. After all, Sister Shen Tang's plastic surgery looks so natural. At first, even I couldn't believe it was the same person."

Her words also answered the questions in the minds of the others present. No wonder Shen Tang has changed so much; it turns out she had plastic surgery.

However, the results are quite impressive. I wonder which plastic surgery clinic she went to; it looks so natural without a trace of technology.

Yun Han frowned and glanced at Shen Tang, trying to discern some clues.

She has changed so much. And it's not just her appearance.

Is it really something that can be done with just a little technology?
Shen Tang accepted the probing or suspicious gazes of the crowd without complaint.

Shen Qingli smiled gently at her, "Thank you for coming to my birthday party today, little sister. I thought you wouldn't come."

"My dear sister personally wrote this invitation for me. If I don't come, wouldn't I be disrespecting your kindness?" Shen Tang said with a forced smile.

She glanced at Yun Han indifferently, her smile deepening. No wonder this bastard female lead specially invited her over; she probably wanted to drive her crazy with jealousy.

Unfortunately, she is no longer the original owner of this body, so she won't love this scoundrel so wholeheartedly.

Shen Tang chuckled, "It's a pity I came in a hurry and didn't bring any gifts, but since you've already received so many valuable gifts, I don't think you care about these."

She shamelessly said, "I believe my arrival is the greatest blessing for my sister!"

Shen Qingli's lips twitched violently, and her smile almost vanished. How could there be such a shameless scoundrel in this world!

Shen Tang seemed oblivious to Shen Qingli's murderous glare. She raised her wine glass, her eyes crinkling with a smile, and said to the two of them, "Then I wish my sister and brother-in-law a long and happy marriage, and that their love will never waver. I'll drink this glass first as a sign of my respect!"

The words fell.

She drank it all in one gulp.

Without the slightest regret, carefree and unrestrained.

Yun Han and Shen Qingli's expressions turned very unpleasant, but Shen Tang's calm and composed demeanor left them speechless. After exchanging a few insincere pleasantries, they went to greet the other guests.

The atmosphere at the banquet gradually returned to normal.

As melodious music played, many guests became thoroughly drunk.

Suddenly, someone in the crowd said, "I remember Princess Shen Tang and Qing Li were born on the same day, right? Today is also His Highness Shen Tang's birthday!"

Upon hearing this, the atmosphere at the scene changed drastically. Everyone had different thoughts, and their eyes all fell on the main subject of the discussion.

Yes, both princesses were delivered on the same day at the hospital, otherwise the babies wouldn't have been switched at birth.

Today is also His Highness Shen Tang's birthday!

No one cared, and so it was forgotten.

Some people secretly sighed, "Both are princesses, born on the same day, yet their treatment is worlds apart."

"His Majesty and the Empress personally held such a grand birthday banquet for Princess Shen Qingli. The gifts sent by various noble families were piled up in the corner, and there was no room to put them all. However, Shen Tang was treated like an outsider, and no one sent her a birthday gift."

"They talk about being princesses, but they are not close relatives. Anyone with eyes can see that."

“The birthday banquet is not a big deal, but when the news gets to the ears of the common people, it will be obvious which princess has more prestige.”

Hearing the whispers around her that carried a hint of mockery, Shen Tang frowned slightly and quietly tightened her grip on the wine glass in her hand.

To be honest, she had forgotten about it too.

Shen Li and the others never mentioned it to her. She was thrown into a polluted area right after getting married, living on the edge of death every day. Who would remember such a thing?

She pursed her lips, about to make an excuse to back down, when she suddenly heard Xiao Jin's disdainful sneer, "It's just a gift, as if everyone doesn't have one?"
