Hearing Lanse's voice, Jiang Xinli breathed a sigh of relief.
She tried to struggle out of Yun Bo's embrace, but his long fingers pressed down slightly, pinning her body in place.
When no answer came from within the hall, Lanse, from outside, respectfully made his request again: "Prince Yun Bo, Lanse seeks an audience."
The Mermaid Prince on the throne then lazily lifted his eyelids, glanced down at the restless girl in his arms, and asked in a cold voice, "What is it?"
The noble youth outside spoke in a clear, gentle voice: "Prince Yun Bo, I've come to escort Miss Xinli back to the Palace."
"Heh—" Yun Bo snorted coldly, using a finger to hook Jiang Xinli's chin. "So, you want to marry him?"
"I don't. Not at all." The girl shook her head like a rattle.
'Marry him? My ass! I don't want to marry anyone!'
'I just want to find the Star Gate and get out of this bizarre and oppressive world with my Beast Husbands!'
Yun Bo's violet eyes darkened slightly.
"Come in."
"Yes."
