Chapter 43: She is My Person
“You…”
Everyone in the Spiritual Cultivation Hall was laughing, with Yue Ling laughing the loudest.
She put her arm around Su Miantang, ready to walk out. “Miantang, since she is so unappreciative, let’s just ignore her and go play on the prairie, okay?”
“Wait!”
Two mechanical soldiers blocked them.
Catherine walked over, staring at her viciously. “Fine, I agree. But if you can’t make me white, then you and the Twin Stars will all die!”
“It’s a deal.”
“Take her away!”
She waved her hand, but Yue Ling was reluctant to let go.
“Miantang, don’t go with her!”
“It’s fine, trust me.”
“Then… if you’re in danger, or she breaks the contract, you must contact me via your optical computer. I’ll rush over to help you immediately!”
“Okay, don’t worry.” Su Miantang gestured to her optical computer. “When this is over, I’ll invite you to the Central Star to play.”
“Okay!”
“Are you leaving or not?”
Catherine was impatient and forcefully pulled her out of the Spiritual Cultivation Hall. Just as she was about to let go, she noticed the military summoner on her wrist.
“The Twin Stars really do dote on you like a treasure, don’t they? To even give you such a rare plaything.”
She jealously tore it off.
“What, why didn’t you ask it for help just now and have them come save you?”
Her rough movements hurt Su Miantang, causing her to rub her wrist. “Given the Central Empire’s state of affairs, it would be easier for the Princess to punish them than to punish me, right?”
“Hahahaha~ At least you have some brains!”
She hated dealing with stupid people the most!
Though she was annoying, she wasn’t stupid.
Catherine laughed heartily. Looking at her continuously rubbing her wrist, her eyes grew slightly red again. With just a tiny bit of force, it had left marks.
She couldn’t imagine—if she too had pale skin and this kind of physique, how much more fun there would be in bed. Just thinking about it made her impatient!
“Where is the Whitening Dew you mentioned? I want to use it right now.”
“Wait a moment, I’ll make an optical computer call to the people at the Academy and have them deliver it.”
Catherine: “Have it sent straight to the palace. Until my skin becomes white, don’t even think about going anywhere else but the Royal Palace!”
Su Miantang dialed Lu Sili’s optical computer number.
It connected in just one second.
“Miantang, have you arrived at Lan Huan Island?”
Lu Sili was very happy. She had thought of him the moment she landed.
“Mhm.” Su Miantang chose her words carefully in her head. “I ran into Her Highness the Princess on Lan Huan Island, and she asked me to help her whiten her skin. Could you trouble yourself to send over a few bottles of Whitening Dew? The ones we saw in the lab yesterday.”
She had looked at the ingredients; they were indeed effective.
“The address is the Royal Palace.”
Her Highness the Princess?
Why would she go to Lan Huan Island? And why would she interact with Miantang, even asking for her help…
Lu Sili was exceptionally intelligent. Connecting her words to the recent trending dispute between “The Princess and the Twin Stars,” he immediately understood her situation.
“Miantang, did the Princess go there to cause trouble for you? You’re in danger!”
“…” Su Miantang was quite impressed that he could react within a single second. “No, I’m really just helping her whiten her skin.”
Even though her tone was calm, Lu Sili still didn’t believe it.
“Is the Princess next to you? Give the optical computer to her.”
Unable to dissuade him, Su Miantang had no choice but to turn the camera toward Catherine.
When Catherine saw the handsome male on the screen, her gaze suddenly turned coquettish.
It was actually the eldest son of Marquis Rothschild, the number one genius of the Central Star, the Dean of the Imperial National Academy of Sciences, Lu Sili!
She thought Su Miantang meant calling a regular staff member when she said she was calling the Academy. She never expected it to be the Dean!
But before she could even rejoice, the man’s icy warning chilled her to the bone.
“Your Highness, Miantang belongs to our National Academy of Sciences. That is to say, she is my person. If you dare to lay a finger on her, I will hold the royal family accountable at any cost!”
Good, good, good!
Catherine ground her teeth in fury. To think that as the dignified Eldest Princess, second only to one and above tens of thousands, she had been repeatedly provoked lately!
First the Imperial Twin Stars, then the Eldest Miss of the Yue family, and now Lu Sili!
And all because of Su Miantang!
One by one, for her sake, they had all grown extraordinarily audacious, daring even to offend the royal family without fear of death!
She wanted to lose her temper, but he controlled the entire Empire’s technological lifeblood, and the Rothschild family held actual power. No matter how you looked at it, she had to give him some face.
“Dean Lu, what kind of person do you take me for? As long as Su Miantang obediently helps me, I won’t make things difficult for her.”
“That is good.”
Lu Sili refused to say a single word more to her and turned back to Su Miantang.
“Miantang, besides the Whitening Dew, what else do you need?”
Hearing his tone turn incredibly gentle compared to the icy demeanor he gave her, Catherine was so angry she wanted to smash the optical computer.
“I still need…”
Su Miantang glanced at the irritable Catherine and listed a few chemical names the Princess completely wouldn’t understand.
Lu Sili was slightly taken aback.
What did she need these highly irritating acidic substances for?
But on second thought, he smiled faintly.
His beautiful, kind-hearted little angel also had moments where she secretly played dirty.
“Alright, I’ll send them all to you.”
By the time Su Miantang hung up, Catherine had already assumed a mocking posture.
She sneered and clapped her hands. “Impressive, truly impressive. For a trash female without pheromones to not only capture the Imperial Twin Stars but also pluck the famous high-and-mighty flower of the Academy of Sciences… what incredible skill!”
The fox lineage placed utmost importance on the distinction between the legitimate line and concubine-born offspring. The pure-blooded legitimate descendants usually possessed excellent looks, whereas the concubine-born children fell far short, and the distant branch relatives couldn’t compare at all.
And Lu Sili was the sole heir to his family’s century-old orthodox lineage. His genes and appearance were considered top-tier.
She had long coveted his fame and wanted to take him into her harem.
However, his temperament was aloof and he was exceptionally intelligent, becoming the Dean of the Imperial National Academy of Sciences at a young age. He wasn’t someone she could casually control, so she gave up and found a distant-branch grey fox as a substitute. That one was already dangerously enchanting in bed.
If just a branch relative possessed such skill, she couldn’t imagine what the real Lu Sili would be like…
It seemed that calling her a fox spirit earlier was underestimating her. She could even bag a real fox spirit!
She suddenly became interested. “Su Miantang, you went to the Imperial National Academy of Sciences just for him, didn’t you? Hanging around him, trying to win his favor, making him pity you…”
Su Miantang rolled her eyes at her.
“Congratulations, you succeeded!”
“So, have you tasted him yet? How are his skills in bed? Is he amazing? Can you even handle it?”
Su Miantang: “He is my boss.”
“Tch~”
“Stop playing the pure maiden. A boss here, Guardians there… you really know how to play, don’t you?”
“Tell the truth, have you tried it with the Twin Stars together? Does it feel good? Is it thrilling? Can your little body even take it?”
