CHAPTER 1576: CHAPTER 1571: WHY SHOULD I? (FOURTH UPDATE)

Xue Hanyue lifted her head, gazing from afar at Zhao Lingxi and Su Chen dancing in the center of the grand hall. For some reason, a trace of envy flashed through her heart.

"Han Yue, it’s nothing. The Little Princess isn’t really angry with you. Perhaps, after a couple of days, she’ll forget." At that moment, Zhuge Wuyan walked towards Xue Hanyue, intending to comfort her.

Xue Hanyue was crying so miserably, and he witnessed it with his own eyes.

He had originally intended to give up on the unrealistic notion of being with the Little Princess Zhao Lingxi and had turned his interest towards Xue Hanyue, perhaps because of this shift in thought. The more he thought about it, the more beautiful he found Xue Hanyue.

Especially tonight, with Xue Hanyue meticulously dressed up, she looked truly beautiful.

Plus, just now, after being reprimanded by the Little Princess Zhao Lingxi, Xue Hanyue’s eyes were swollen from crying, tears like a rain-soaked pear blossom, which evoked a sense of pity, adding a touch of vulnerability to her demeanor, making her extremely attractive.

Because of this, from afar, Zhuge Wuyan saw her, hesitated several times, but finally mustered the courage to step forward and comfort Xue Hanyue.

As for whether this action would offend the Little Princess Zhao Lingxi.

He carefully analyzed it.

First, Zhao Lingxi probably doesn’t care about small ants like him and Xue Hanyue, possibly forgetting by the next day.

Second, he had already offended Zhao Lingxi, so he wasn’t afraid of offending her a bit more.

Third, he purely felt this was a perfect opportunity!!! Just think, now Xue Hanyue is sad and in need of comfort, and because she was just reprimanded by the Little Princess, everyone else was treating her like the plague, not daring to approach her, so much so that many people were avoiding her at all costs. In this situation, with him coming forward to comfort her despite such immense pressure, she was sure to be deeply moved, making things twice as effective with half the effort.

Based on these three points.

Zhuge Wuyan walked over with great courage.

And, he handed Xue Hanyue a silk handkerchief.

He believed he could definitely touch her heart.

He believed he could definitely win the beauty over.

"Here, wipe your tears." Zhuge Wuyan’s voice was soft, smiling gently: "There’s no obstacle in life that can’t be overcome. If you’re feeling wronged, just look ahead, live wonderfully as yourself, be your own strong person, and everything will pass."

Xue Hanyue lifted her head and glanced at Zhuge Wuyan.

Then her eyes shifted back onto Su Chen and Zhao Lingxi in the center of the hall.

Suddenly, as she stared at Su Chen, inexplicably, a glimmer of light, a sparkle, appeared in her beautiful eyes.

She stood up.

Yes.

At this moment, the musician’s song had come to an end.

In the center of the grand hall.

The sword dance of Su Chen and the Little Princess Zhao Lingxi had also ended.

"Thank you for your handkerchief, but I don’t need it." Xue Hanyue took a deep breath, no longer looking at Zhuge Wuyan who offered the handkerchief, and said plainly. She actually refused Zhuge Wuyan’s handkerchief. While declining it, she stepped forward, unbelievably... unbelievably, towards the center of the hall, towards Su Chen and Zhao Lingxi.

Zhuge Wuyan was in shock, unable to believe it, as if his brain had been hammered heavily!!! He couldn’t believe it even in death!

He went through such immense pressure and took such a significant risk to hand Xue Hanyue a handkerchief, yet... yet... yet he was rejected?!

How is this possible? Could it be an illusion? Is Xue Hanyue crazy?

Quickly.

Under Zhuge Wuyan’s uncertain, amazed gaze, under the bewildered stares of everyone in the grand hall, Xue Hanyue had already arrived at the center of the hall.

Xue Hanyue stood in front of Su Chen.

"Su Chen, may I... may I invite you for a dance?!" Xue Hanyue spoke up, although her beautiful eyes were still red and swollen, her beautiful face was filled with determination and persistence.

This is Xue Hanyue!!!

This is her pride.

If she hadn’t been humiliated by Zhao Lingxi, perhaps she and Su Chen would be two parallel lines.

No matter how many rumors surfaced.

She wouldn’t care, focusing on her cultivation, striving to become a strong person.

But earlier, having been humiliated by Zhao Lingxi, she realized that she wasn’t worthy of Su Chen, that Su Chen’s women were stronger and more beautiful than her, that Su Chen had ignored her from the beginning to the end.

She was provoked into awakening the deepest pride in her bones.

Where she fell, she would stand up.

Even if she couldn’t stand up, she would try.

When a woman becomes proud, becomes ruthless, she’s terrifying.

Like Xue Hanyue, her courage was simply unimaginable. Despite being humiliated by Zhao Lingxi just now, she directly wanted to compete for Zhao Lingxi’s man.

Is she insane?!

In the grand hall, almost all the geniuses’ expressions changed drastically, twitching at the corners of their mouths, stunned.

They were astonished by Xue Hanyue’s actions!

"Uh?" Su Chen was equally speechless. He truly couldn’t understand what Xue Hanyue was thinking...

"Hehe." On the other hand, Zhao Lingxi, unexpectedly smiled, and even gave Xue Hanyue a deep look, her gaze filled not with the expected fury, but rather inexplicably with admiration.

Shouldn’t Zhao Lingxi be angry? After all, Xue Hanyue was about to snatch her man. But instead, she smiled, even admiring her.

It was equally puzzling.

"Now, it seems there’s a tiny bit of qualification to be worthy of my Brother Su." Zhao Lingxi thought, her little hands that had tightly clutched Su Chen’s arms let go of him, and she independently walked to the other side, as if deliberately leaving Su Chen for Xue Hanyue.

At the corner.

Zhuge Wuyan’s lips had a hint of crimson!

He was almost on the verge of Deviation.

Why? Why? Why? He frantically questioned himself.

His goddess, the Little Princess Zhao Lingxi whom he admired and was infatuated with, pursued Su Chen, and he endured it, he forcefully endured it.

But Xue Hanyue, even after being humiliated and attacked by Zhao Lingxi, even when Su Chen ignored her, even after he went through so much pressure and risk to comfort her and handed her a silk handkerchief.

Yet, she chose to reject his comfort, ignored his handkerchief, and instead invited Su Chen for a dance.

Zhuge Wuyan’s eyes were red.

He refuses to accept it! He would never accept it!

What does that brat Su Chen have that he doesn’t?!!! How could he compare to himself?

Why does the Little Princess cherish him so deeply and pursue him, why does even Xue Hanyue put aside her dignity to pursue him?

Why, as a fellow human, is he so much stronger and better than Su Chen, yet receives such treatment?

"Su Chen, I, Zhuge Wuyan, vow to fight you to the death." Zhuge Wuyan’s face was so ferocious it didn’t resemble a human anymore. He swore, frantically swore, a fire of jealousy roaring through his heart like a tsunami, wishing he could tear Su Chen to pieces.
