978 Chapter 978 "Lady Yan is Here!"

Lady Yan? She remembered this name. In the novel, the biggest rival aside from the one in the Academy was this Lady Yan, Long Ao Zhen's childhood sweetheart! 

Why the hell that girl had to come at this time? It was already late! Could it be she used to visit Long Ao Zhen's residence even when it was night time? 

Li Shi Ying frown became even more obvious to the point of scaring the servant. The servant thought that he spoke something bad so he hurriedly covered his mouth with his two hands. He didn't intend to provoke Li Shi Ying by mentioning Lady Yan but that girl is really here! 

The servants actually honestly liked Li Shi Ying more than Lady Yan. They saw how beautiful she was and despite being a human, she was really loveable. Even the master was so fond of her yet she didn't act haughtily. Her smile could make their day. 

How could they don't like such a kind mistress? 

Thus the servant felt bad. He didn't want to let Lady Yan who was famous to be the strongest candidate to be the crown princess, meet their mistress. What if that arrogant lady harms their mistress? 

"...let her in" Long Ao Zhen paused a bit before he told the servant to let Lady Yan came inside. He really didn't want to receive that troublesome girl but since she brought an invitation from the empress…

No one could refuse her. 

"Lady Yan...who is she?" Li Shi Ying pretends to be ignorant as she suddenly asked Long Ao Zhen with a smile on her face. There's no way she won't notice anything when the people around her all suddenly become serious. 

The atmosphere turned a bit strange. This means Lady Yan must be someone important enough for them to react like this. She saw that servant's expression before and she could guess…

This Lady Yan should be a troublemaker for real. 

"She's my childhood friend" Long Ao Zhen answered shortly not wanting to talk about Yan Fenghuang. That girl was the one who drugged him! He hasn't settled the score yet she still dares to come to his residence! 

Long Ao Zhen gritted his teeth and his aura changed. Anyone would instantly know that Long Ao Zhen was irritated. 

"What's wrong? It's your childhood friend. Why do you look irritated?" Li Shi Ying took Long Ao Zhen's hand and caressed the palm slightly. She actually already knew why Long Ao Zhen was so angry right now but she would pretend that she didn't know. 

In the novel, after all, it was mentioned that Long Ao Zhen knew the evil deed Yan Fenghuang did. He couldn't do anything to the girl since she was the empress' favourite and his childhood friend resulting in a misunderstanding between him and Meng Yue Ming in the novel. 

But she wasn't Meng Yue Ming. She knew what Long Ao Zhen felt for real toward Yan Fenghuang. So how about she helped her man to chase away this fox which keeps on bothering him? 

The man immediately signalled Lu Seyu to stay guard. He even told Li Shi Ying to be prepared to summon her shadow guards. Long Ao Zhen became this serious because even though Yan Fenghuang was a girl at the same age as Li Shi Ying, she was truly strong. 

Her family was a general family, her father often went to the battlefield and so his daughter was also trained to be a tough lady. Despite being spoiled rotten, her strength was incredible. No wonder many people supported her to become the future empress. 

This girl was truly the definition of PERFECT! Of course, if compared to the female lead, Meng Yue Ming, she would lose but Li Shi Ying…

Realizing this, Li Shi Ying poked Nessie who was sleeping on her shoulder. The girl gulped nervously realizing that her life would be in danger as well. Long Ao Zhen couldn't harm Yan Fenghuang due to his mother but the other person could harm her without reason! 

[What is it] Nessie blinked his two large eyes and yawned. He slept a lot lately in order to recover his mana faster, the energy that fuels his awesome magic. Without it, he won't be a great Nessie anymore. 

[Keep your guard. There will be someone coming here and she held resentment toward me for sure. Protect me, can you?] Li Shi Ying whispered to Nessie not noticing that Lu Seyu looked at her in a strange light. 

His master had a strange pet. At first, because the size was small he didn't too much but once that pet opened its eyes he felt a suffocating aura around the pet. Such a strong pressure was comparable to his highness! 

Just what is this pet? How come his master who was a human had a pet as strong as his highness? His master was really mysterious! 

[Copy that. I won't let anyone harm you] Nessie nodded his head as he sat down on Li Shi Ying's shoulder. The little guy flapped his two wings making Lu Seyu gulped nervously. He wanted to pinch those two tiny wings! 

Nessie had just finished talking to Li Shi Ying when a servant suddenly shouted announcing Yan Fenghuang arrival. 

"Lady Yan from General Yan manor is here!"
