Chapter 2865: Crown Prince Mo Adds Fuel to the Fire
2865 Crown Prince Mo Adds Fuel to the Fire
Ming Bao wanted to halt Rong Li's departure, but he was restrained by Ba Shu and the others. "Your Highness, please maintain your composure!"
Maintain his composure? Rong Li couldn't believe his ears. Those few words had provoked an eruption of humiliation, and he stormed away.
Ming Bao snorted and joined Vassal Prince Mo Liu on the side. Tugging at his sleeve, he remarked, "Ah Liu, let's steer clear of Rong Li in the future. He's truly a narrow-minded fellow who can't take a jest. Hmph."
Mo Liu couldn't help but rub his temples.
Today, the Crown Prince of the Ultramarine Province had virtually tarnished their reputation within this dining hall. He was likely on the verge of bursting from suppressed frustration.
"Let's go eat," Duan Yue kept insisting as he led the way toward a private room on the second floor.
The greasy youth, Xing Tianyang, who had been glaring belligerently from the side, attempted to pounce forward once more. However, two individuals in black suddenly appeared and halted him.
"Good grief, has that guy not taken a shower in days? His body is nearly covered in hair. He reeks to high heaven," Little Fatty grumbled silently as he followed Duan Yue and the others upstairs.
Once they were all seated in the private room, they ordered more than ten dishes. As they dined, they engaged in cheerful conversation.
"What happened to his face?" Mo Lian couldn't help but twitch his mouth when he thought of Rong Li's pitiful visage.
She realized that last night, when Little Fatty and the others had stealthily ventured out, Mo Lian had followed them and helped deal with the few hidden guards that Rong Li had stationed in the shadows.
In essence, the reason Little Fatty, Qi Xuanxuan, and the rest could effortlessly administer a beating to Rong Li was all thanks to Crown Prince Mo...
Duan Yue raised his teacup and took a sip. "I appreciate all of you standing up for me."
Qi Xuanxuan waved her hand as she continued eating. "Qiaoqiao wanted to give him a good thrashing."
"Then why hasn't the injury on his face healed by now?" Duan Yue inquired exasperatedly. "Did Qiaoqiao leave behind some medicine?"
Lu Yu shook his head quickly. "Qiaoqiao didn't specifically leave any medicine behind."
"It's just that we have various medicinal powders lying around us." Each time Qiaoqiao concocted her various exceptional medicinal powders, she produced them in abundance. They had the privilege of helping themselves to these resources, so when they found something useful, they would take a portion.
This time, while administering a beating to Rong Li, she had used a particular medicinal powder to exacerbate his injuries and prevent his bruises from healing.
As for why Rong Li felt unable to employ his spiritual energy, it wasn't solely due to Little Fatty and the others' potent medicinal powder.
Crown Prince Mo had also played a part in covertly suppressing Rong Li's spiritual power.
Otherwise, if Rong Li had caused a commotion, how could Little Fatty and the others have beaten him so effortlessly and noiselessly?
Crown Prince Mo believed that his wife's intentions were his responsibility, and he had to assist her wholeheartedly. He also wanted to ensure her friends had a good time...
Duan Yue chuckled heartily. "I've been back in the Ultramarine Province for quite some time, but this is the first time I've witnessed Rong Li lose his temper to the point of distorting his face. Hahahaha! It's genuinely amusing to contemplate."
"How long will his facial injuries last?"
"We need to keep it up until Qiaoqiao returns!" Qi Xuanxuan used her chopsticks to pick up some food and placed it in her mouth while speaking nonchalantly. "We were worn out from the nighttime battle. We have to let Qiaoqiao have a look."
Duan Yue and Mo Lian were both exasperated.
It appeared that the primary reason they had employed this special medicinal powder was that Qiaoqiao was currently absent from the academy. They had to await her return to "evaluate" the results.
"Take out all your weapons," Mo Lian instructed with indifference.
