Transmigration: The Little Chef Calls The Shots-Chapter 1563 - 355, Picked the Wrong One (Second Update)

Following the voice, one could see an exceptionally splendidly dressed noble young master arguing with the Second Young Master Su at the commoners’ judgment area.

To call it an argument, however, would imply that both parties were participating equally. In reality, Su Tianrui was doing all the shouting, while the opulently attired young master seemed not to regard him at all, merely waving the ink jade bone fan in his hand and sitting steadily in the front row without budging.

If he chose not to act, naturally someone would act on his behalf.

In front of this noble young master stood two peculiar individuals – one tall with a large build, and the other quite the opposite, small and short.

Staring down and up, respectively, these two fixed Su Tianrui with such fierce glares from their four eyes that it raised goosebumps all over his body, making him acutely aware of their hostile intentions.

"You! Don’t think you can do whatever you want just because you have these two freaks shielding you! That seat is mine, vacate it!"

Confronting the tall figure, Su Tianrui was suddenly reminded of their first meeting in Dong Tian, where he had thought he had encountered a ghost, and embarrassingly hid behind Xia Zheng.

But today, even though he already knew the true identity of this tall individual, why did he still feel so uneasy?

Especially this little dwarf, who was more than a head shorter than himself, yet why did it feel like his very life was being held in the dwarf’s grasp when stared at by him?

Unable to help it, Su Tianrui shivered and glanced over at the commoners who were casting their gazes this way. Forcing himself to uphold his pride, he managed to straighten his back significantly.

"He Lian, don’t think that because of your special status I’ll give way to you! Let me tell you, I spent a lot of silver to get this invitation. If you dare to use your position to bully others, I will expose your identity and see that you gain no advantage!"

Su Tianrui lifted his chin and nodded subtly at Zhao Hongsheng, who was curiously looking this way, his lips curving into a sneer as he spoke softly, "See? That person over there, that is the current Second Prince. He was the one most opposed to the marital alliance with Xiliang. If he found out that you, the Crown Prince of Xiliang, snuck into the Capital city without a sound, he would certainly create a big fuss! Hmph, consider what to do, weigh your options yourself!"

Having said his piece, Su Tianrui crossed his arms and turned his head away, his face full of disdain.

The tall individual was simple-minded and unaware of the danger in Su Tianrui’s words, but the dwarf, being astute, immediately looked back at He Lienuo with some concern.

He Lienuo, however, was not even slightly bothered by Su Tianrui’s threat, continuing to leisurely fan himself with the ink jade bone fan, lips curled up into a cold smirk.

"Second Master Su sure does love to joke. The only reason this Crown Prince arrived early in the Capital city was to set things up in advance. As for not paying my respects to Your Majesty the Emperor right away, that was merely because this Crown Prince suffered the hardships of travel and fell ill for a few days due to the unfamiliar water and soil. What, is being considerate not to share my sickness with His Majesty considered wrong now?"

Pfft!

Su Tianrui, who had been smugly thinking he had a handle on the Crown Prince, suddenly choked on his own saliva. What? Ill? Such a far-fetched excuse, does this He Lienuo have no shame at all?

"You fell ill? Then why didn’t you rest at the inn instead of coming here to join the commotion!"

Su Tianrui, with a face full of contempt, rolled his eyes and waved his hand dismissively, "Enough, enough. I won’t waste words with you. Hurry up and vacate this place. Can’t you see that everyone’s looking at us? How embarrassing!"

"Oh?"

He Lienuo swiftly snapped the ink jade bone fan shut, raising an eyebrow and looking at Su Tianrui with a mocking smile, "Second Master Su is worried about losing face if others see? I wonder what aspect of Second Master Su is unfit for others to see? Do you think you’re ugly, or perhaps your clothes are shabby?"

Shabby?

Su Tianrui blinked, and although he hadn’t heard this word before, he could tell from He Lienuo’s expression that it certainly wasn’t complimentary.

When the word ’shabby’ left his lips, He Lienuo himself was taken aback. Wasn’t that term a pet phrase of that ugly girl?

Good heavens, how could a man as handsome and robust as himself be caught parroting the phrase of an ugly girl? No, he must forget it at once!

"You spout nonsense! How could I, of all people, be ugl XPARP? How could I be dressed shabbily? You, a usurper taking what doesn’t belong to you, get off my seat right now!"
