I'm a princess, so what if I have three husbands?

Chapter 315 My mind is in turmoil, and I've lost the game.

Su Fengling's focus was not on helping Yan Ruoyu win the position of young lord, but on the Changyu clan.

Because they heard that the two of them seemed to have a good impression of Zhongli Yueluo.

Despite some quirks, her feelings for Zhongli Yueluo were definitely genuine.

He wanted to have a good talk with those two tomorrow, since they dared to openly say they liked her sister.

No! My sister can only be his!

"Sister, Yan Ruoyu, your childhood sweetheart, will definitely target you in tomorrow's beast race."

"It's alright. We'll be accompanying Yan Ruoyu to school, so we can test our skills against them tomorrow."

"Sister? Can't you come and keep us company tonight?"

"This is someone else's residence, and we are all children. I'm afraid this is inappropriate."

One sentence shattered Su Fengling's fantasies; he still longed to sleep with his soft, tiny older sister.

"It is getting late, gentlemen, please return to the courtyard to rest."

Yin Yi had originally followed Yan Ruoyu, but now she turned back.

Standing there, squinting at the Su brothers, he knew that these young masters had a close relationship with Zhongli Yueluo.

But he should at least create an opportunity for Yan Ruoyu, a rare girl with the shrewdness to rival their young lord.

Looking across the entire demon realm, it's probably hard to find someone like him. All those beautiful women around him usually just call him "brother."

He couldn't have any deeper conversations with Yan Ruoyu after spending time with Zhongli Yueluo today.

It was quite obvious that there was a faint smile in his eyes.

But she just wouldn't admit it, even though she clearly liked him.

Thinking that after sending these young masters back to their courtyards to rest, they could enjoy tea under the moonlight.

That's really great!

The more he thought about it, the more his lips curled up in a smile, but his intentions were all too obvious.

Instead of exposing his true intentions, the others returned to their own courtyards to rest. But he forgot about He Yuhuan.

Sure enough, after all the courtyards were quiet, no one knew what Yan Ruoyu's habits were.

He likes to sit under that big tree and think, probably about tomorrow's horse race.

It sounds like a simple entertainment activity, but there might be turbulent undercurrents behind it.

For no apparent reason, he thought of Zhongli Yueluo.

She looks so delicate, what if she can't ride a horse? She probably doesn't even have riding clothes.

Yin put his hand behind his back and asked, "What are you thinking about, Master?"

"I'm thinking about how to help Miss Yueluo avoid their schemes and tricks." He was quite honest.

He had nothing to hide from Yin Yi, and even tapped the table with his hand.

"They don't have riding gear, remember to prepare some for them."

“I think Miss Yueluo is probably still awake at this time. Master seems to be preoccupied. Why don’t we tell Miss Yueluo what’s on his mind?”

He hesitated for a moment, but surprisingly did not refuse. With a wave of his hand, a chessboard appeared, empty except for a single black piece in the center.

When he looked up towards Zhongli Yueluo's courtyard, he saw her standing on the wall.

Her light yellow dress fluttered in the wind, and behind her, the moon hung perfectly.

The wind carried her fragrance to his nose, and he was instantly mesmerized, as a few leaves drifted down.

Yin Yi's heart was pounding as he watched. How beautiful it would be if he could see the two of them playing chess under the moon.

"I think I heard Young Master Yan say he misses me. Is he thinking of me?" She smiled slightly, her back to the moonlight.

All that could be seen were her bright, dark blue eyes, like the Milky Way in the sky.

Yan Ruoyu still couldn't get used to hearing her speak so frivolously, but she had indeed been thinking about her just now.

"Why are you standing on the wall at night?" He stared at her, his gaze unwavering.

"Because I live next door to an incredibly handsome young man, I can't sleep when I think about him."

She was about to jump off the wall, but it was still a bit too high for her height.

She wouldn't have been hurt if she jumped, but Yan Ruoyu felt a sudden tightness in her chest.

Unbeknownst to him, he took two steps forward and opened his arms.

Yin Yi stood to the side, pursing her lips, wanting to laugh but not daring to, and said she didn't believe in love at first sight!

As if it were all planned, Zhongli Yueluo landed steadily in Yan Ruoyu's arms, her little hands hooking around his neck.

"Thank you, Young Master Yan."

"Just call me Ruoyu." His face was flushed, and he immediately let go of Zhongli Yueluo's arm after realizing what he had done.

"Ruoyu, your hands are a little cold," she teased him, then straightened her clothes.

"You...you...you know how to play chess?" He changed the subject.

Zhongli Yueluo nodded. This was all thanks to being in the inner chambers, where one had to learn all the arts, including music, chess, calligraphy, and painting.

She walked to the table and moved the black pieces to her side, but the one in the middle remained untouched.

"I'll go first, Ruoyu, you go first."

The two engaged in a thrilling and exhilarating battle of wits, their back-and-forth exchanges seemingly reaching a state of deep meditation.

Yan Ruoyu was actually slightly inferior! Her pupils trembled as she went down.

This little girl is amazing!

"If I place another piece, it will be a dead end."

He held a chess piece between two fingers, looking at it with amusement, as if he was playing against him but hadn't yet given it his all.

"Who is your teacher?" Yan Ruoyu asked, somewhat unwilling.

"Self-taught." With the last piece placed, the outcome was decided.

"I lost."

Although he was somewhat unwilling, this was the most enjoyable game he had ever played, as someone had actually played against him for so long.

She didn't deliberately yield anymore, nor did she forcefully suppress or display her sense of superiority; instead, it seemed as if she was guiding her step by step.

"The game of chess is over, so I'll head back now." Although she said she was leaving, she didn't stand up.

"Be careful tomorrow. Qianqiu Changhuan is always petty and narrow-minded. I'm afraid she might do something to you in that beast field."

"What can she do to me? Don't you always protect me?"

Her small hand gently covered the back of his hand: "Oh dear, your hand is warm again now."

“Don’t do these things anymore. You’re not that kind of person. You… you already have them.”

“What kind of person am I? Tell me! I’m the kind of person who climbs over walls at night, just because I covet your beauty.”

Her eyes shone brightly, revealing not a trace of a lie.

Why is he able to say these high-sounding words so truthfully?

"nonsense!"

But his mind was in turmoil, and with a flick of his wrist, his sleeve disrupted the game of chess, causing Zhongli Yueluo to giggle.

"Oh dear, could it be that he's angry and wants to take back his move, refusing to admit defeat?"

"How could that be? A loss is a loss."

He looked at her with unwavering eyes, and Zhongli Yueluo put her hands into her sleeves.

"Is there anything else you want to say? If not, I'm really leaving."

"Yin Yi has prepared riding gear for you, I hope it fits." He stood up and took a step back to create some distance between them.

"Thank you, Ruoyu."

Zhongli Yueluo pressed her thumb to her lips, then bent forward and pressed her thumb to Yan Ruoyu's lips.
