Chapter 225: Still Not Rolling Away?

Chapter 225: Still Not Rolling Away?

It had to be said that Baili Wei seemed to have a natural talent for saying things that infuriated everyone.

The people of Great Shen glared at her now, but due to her status, no one dared to say anything too harsh.

To Baili Wei, their words were like water off a duck's back, and she even retorted with righteous indignation, "You only have this moment to shout at me. Soon, you'll have to face reality."

Su Youyue gave Baili Wei a cold glance.

As the Third Princess, she had been pampered since birth, living off the tribute of Great Shen's people, enjoying luxury and fine food. Even if she didn't feel any responsibility, it was unacceptable for her to speak ill of her own country for the sake of an enemy nation.

It seemed that whether in her past life or this one, she had always been the same.

"I wonder who is really barking here—us, the people of Great Shen, or the Third Princess? Regardless of whether we win or lose, all of us in Great Shen stand united. The Third Princess should stop her senseless ranting."

Su Youyue's voice was clear and melodious, refreshing to the ears, but upon hearing her words, the people of Great Shen felt a new kind of shock. However, they couldn't help but think, wasn't Miss Su being a bit too bold!

Even though the Third Princess had fallen from grace, she was still a princess. For Miss Su to dare to lash out at her so openly was truly audacious!

Recalling that their relationship had always been poor, everyone realized there must have been a history between them.

In fact, even if they had been on good terms before, given what the Third Princess had just said, Su Youyue would still have reacted this way.

National interests were fundamental, and one must have principles. Defending one's country was one of her bottom lines.

Now that someone was challenging her principles right in front of her, she naturally wouldn't hold back.

She might not have much room to interject in arguments among men, but in matters concerning women, she wouldn't hesitate to step forward.

Though her legs were crippled, her spirit remained unbroken!

Baili Wei, despite her fall from grace, had never heard such harsh words. Hearing Su Youyue compare her words to a dog's bark, she was so angry her nose nearly twisted.

"Su Youyue! How dare you insult me!"

In the past, when she was still esteemed, Su Youyue had never backed down from her. Now that she had lost her power, how could Su Youyue possibly take her seriously?

"Yes, I am insulting you. I'm insulting the traitor who speaks for Dongrong Country and belittles our Great Shen. I'm insulting your empty head. Even a dog knows to protect its home, but you know nothing."

"..."

Baili Wei thought that her earlier rebuke would intimidate Su Youyue, but after hearing her subsequent words, she remembered that Su Youyue was a little madwoman.

Just like Xie Yuan, both were mad!

Madness and madness, weren't they a perfect match?

Baili Wei's face turned purple-red with anger, about to explode, but then she suddenly remembered something. She squeezed her eyes shut and turned to look at Prince Bei: "Prince..."

She recalled her good friend Su Qian's skills, how a few tears could manipulate anyone. But she hadn't considered that Su Qian had a delicate and innocent face, making her tears seem like a swaying white lotus, fragile and pitiful.

Baili Wei, however, had a regal and beautiful appearance, shaped by years of arrogance, making her attempt at pity seem fake.

Prince Bei wasn't stupid; he had seen everything that had happened.

He didn't feel sorry for Baili Wei; instead, he almost felt nauseous.

Was the Third Princess of Great Shen mentally deficient, speaking ill of her own country and siding with outsiders?

Although Prince Bei wasn't usually a good person, he stood firm on national principles and despised traitors.

The Third Princess's actions hit his sore spot.

Just thinking about marrying this woman and having her sleep in his bed made him feel as if he were covered in thorns, wishing he had never met her.

Such a person without principles, who could betray her own country today, could easily do the same to Dongrong tomorrow.

Prince Bei made an immediate decision.

Regardless of whether Dongrong won or lost the martial competition, he would never marry the Third Princess of Great Shen!

On the other hand, the Miss Su he admired was principled and courageous! Her words were commendable!

At this moment, Prince Bei genuinely felt attracted to Su Youyue.

With this thought, his eyes flickered, seemingly hatching a plan, and he smiled slyly.

"Prince?" Baili Wei, expecting Prince Bei to speak up for her, was dumbfounded.

Why did Prince Bei laugh when she cried in distress?

Prince Bei was annoyed by her call: "Don't call me that. You disgust me!"

"I disgust you?" Baili Wei was shocked, her mouth agape. The two tears she had forced out just flowed into her mouth, making her expression comical.

Prince Bei's frown deepened, enough to crush a fly: "I despise traitors like you. Miss Su has such integrity; you can't even compare to one of her fingers. How dare you argue with her? If you say another word against her, I won't spare you!"

"..."

The people of Great Shen exchanged glances, surprised that the annoying Prince Bei would scold the Third Princess for speaking on behalf of Dongrong and praise Miss Su.

They never expected this.

The Third Princess's face turned ashen, as if she had eaten something foul. She couldn't understand why Prince Bei would compare her unfavorably to Su Youyue, especially since she was the one supporting him and Dongrong. Yet, he defended Su Youyue and humiliated her!

That vixen Su Youyue!

The other girls watching the Third Princess shook their heads secretly. Though they didn't dare to scold her like Miss Su, they shared similar thoughts.

And looking at the Third Princess's eyes, it seemed she hated Miss Su to the core.

They just couldn't understand why she only dared to glare at Miss Su but not at Prince Bei. Didn't Prince Bei say harsh words too? Yet from her expression, it seemed she didn't resent Prince Bei at all.

At this moment, even they somewhat agreed with Prince Bei's words. The Third Princess truly had no integrity whatsoever! She couldn't compare to Miss Su in the slightest.

Although Miss Su was sitting in a wheelchair, she appeared more dignified and graceful than the standing Third Princess. Her innate nobility far surpassed that of the Third Princess.

Seeing Bai Liwei still glaring at Su Youyue, Prince Bei's disgust reached an unprecedented peak: "Haven't you rolled yet?"
