Lover

The attendant brought four sets of clothes.

“These are the clothes for the banquet. Please change into them and follow me to the banquet hall.”

After putting down the clothes, the attendant obediently left the bedroom.

Huanhuan picked up the clothes and looked at them. “The material of these clothes is very good. The dragon emperor is so generous!”

The materials for the four sets of clothes were different. She only recognized shark silk. The rest were unfamiliar. She had never seen them before.

Xue Ling was knowledgeable. He casually touched them. “Other than shark silk, the rest are fabrics specially made by the tree tribe. The tree tribe is good at weaving and dyeing fabrics. The fabrics they make are comfortable and beautiful. From the number of fabrics, the dragon tribe must be very close to the tree tribe.”

Huanhuan was very puzzled. “Tree tribe?”

“The tree tribe lives in the blue wind Continent.” Xue Ling took out the sea map and pointed to the land closest to the secret dragon continent. “This place is close to the blue wind continent. With the flying speed of the dragon race, it’ll only take seven or eight days to fly to the blue wind continent.”

Shuang Yun interrupted, “I’ve heard about tree people in the past. They evolved from trees to human forms, so their living habits are completely different from us beasts.”

“That’s right. They’re vegetarians. They don’t eat meat. Besides, they like to sing. When they get excited, their heads bloom.”

Huanhuan smiled. “That sounds interesting.”

The dragons liked to enjoy luxury, so the style of their clothes was more exaggerated.

Fortunately, Bai Di, Shuang Yun, and Xue Ling were all very good-looking. They relied on their handsome faces, broad shoulders, narrow waists, and long legs to pull off the clothes. Thus, they all looked very handsome.

Huanhuan cupped her small face and looked up at the three male beasts in front of her. She smiled and said, “You look like princes.”

Bai Di adjusted his cuffs. “I am a prince.”

Shuang Yun was not used to the complicated lace on his collar. He unbuttoned it with one hand. “I’m the beast king of Rock City. My status is higher than that of a prince.”

Xue Ling frowned slightly. There were only a few small gems on his outfit. It was not high-end at all!

Huanhuan pouted. “I’m just making an analogy. My goal is to praise you for being handsome. Why are you taking me seriously?”

Bai Di bent down and picked her up, helping her adjust her dress.

Shuang Yun leaned over and kissed her on the cheek. “Then which one of us do you think is more handsome?”

Huanhuan asked, “Guess.”

Shuang Yun snorted.

Eggy flapped her wings and flew over. Xue Ling had put a red crystal necklace on her neck. The red crystal the size of a pigeon egg was especially shiny. It could blind people from afar.

She looked a little like a tycoon.

However, Eggy liked this red crystal very much. Specifically, she had no resistance to anything shiny.

She deliberately circled Huanhuan and showed off her red crystal necklace.

“Chirp chirp!”

‘Isn’t my red crystal beautiful?’

Huanhuan began to worry about her youngest daughter’s future aesthetic standards. She turned to Xue Ling and said, “Can you stop letting Eggy wear the red crystals in your collection?”

“Why? These red crystals look so good!” Xue Ling said as he wrapped a thin chain embedded with red crystals around his waist.

He walked up to Huanhuan and displayed the sparkling red crystals on his body like a peacock spreading its tail.

“Look, I added more crystals. Don’t I look especially gorgeous?”

Huanhuan stared at him for a moment, then covered her eyes and said with heartache, “I can’t even look at you.”

“Why?”

“I’ll be blinded.”

“…”

In all honesty, Xue Ling was not ugly dressed like this. After all, he was very dazzling to begin with. Even though he was covered in gems, they could not hide his handsome face. His ostentatious aura was even maximized.

But Huanhuan still felt her eyes hurt.

She shrank into Bai Di’s arms. She didn’t want to look at Xue Ling’s jewelry.

Many guests were invited to tonight’s celebratory banquet. When Huanhuan’s family arrived at the banquet hall, there were already many people gathered.

After arriving, Huanhuan realized that Xue Ling’s attire was not the most exaggerated here.

She saw a dragon that had encrusted his clothes with all kinds of gems. Even his shoes were covered in shiny gems.

Huanhuan couldn’t help but worry for that person. What if the gems on his shoes were accidentally rubbed off?

They cost so much money!

Dragons liked luxury and enjoyment. At the same time, they loved to compare themselves to others. Wearing gems was also a form of comparison. The more gems they had on them, the stronger they would appear.

Only the strong had the strength to protect so many treasures.

The tableware they used was also made of gold and silver. Some cups were even embedded with gems. At a glance, they looked very expensive.

Huanhuan’s face was blank.

Tonight was not a celebratory feast at all but a banquet for the rich, right?

Before long, the dragon emperor walked into the banquet hall surrounded by many attendants.

He wore a golden crown and a golden silk gown. His chest was embedded with gems to make him look like a mighty dragon. He looked especially gorgeous in the candlelight.

Huanhuan rubbed her eyes, feeling that she would definitely go blind tonight.

Shuang Yun’s eyes were sharp. He suddenly asked, “The person beside the dragon emperor looks familiar. Look, is that Cynthia?”

Hearing this, Huanhuan immediately looked up.

Beside the dragon emperor was a slender woman. Her red dress flowed behind her, and her long black curly hair reached her waist. She wore an exquisite golden crown on her head. Her gorgeous appearance was very feminine and attractive.

She was indeed Cynthia!

Huanhuan was very surprised. Why was Cynthia here?

From the looks of it, she and the dragon emperor were not ordinary friends.

This change happened so suddenly that Huanhuan was stunned.

Bai Di stroked her head. “Don’t panic. We’ll play it by ear later.”

Coincidentally, Allen walked over to greet them.

Bai Di exchanged pleasantries with him and pretended to ask about Cynthia.

Allen smiled meaningfully. “Madam Cynthia isn’t simple. Not long after she came to Scaled City, she met the dragon emperor. The dragon emperor saw that she was beautiful and had a pleasant personality. He wanted to develop a relationship with her, but he couldn’t control himself. Not only did His Majesty have sex with her, but he also brought her back to the palace to take care of her. From the looks of it, he’s preparing to treat her as a long-term fixed lover.”

The dragon emperor had a mate, but the dragon empress died many years ago.

On account of their relationship as husband and wife, the dragon emperor had not remarried all these years, but he had never stopped having lovers. Hence, everyone did not mind Cynthia’s appearance.

Huanhuan never expected that the woman she had worked so hard to find would become the dragon emperor’s lover!

What should they do now?
