Chapter 627
Lining Up (3)
āā¦, Debbie, do you really like him? Why do you keep defending him?ā asked Qiāer as she looked at Debbie.
Qiāer was mostly joking with Debbie, making fun of her for something she thought was ridiculous. Now that it seemed that there was a possibility that Debbie did actually like Ye Lang, Qiāer was worried.
Although she still treated him decently, that didnāt mean that she would let her younger cousin get together with Ye Lang. Heās a commoner, living with him would mean a hard life for her.
She understood that he had the potential to be something great but no one knew when that potential would be fulfilled. For all they knew, he could die not showing the world what he was capable of.
That being said, Ye Lang could also hit it big right away. All in all, she wouldnāt let Debbie be together with a commoner like Ye Lang. It was too much of a risk.
Even though it could be said that she was looking out for her cousinās happiness, deep down she still looked down on him.
Debbie shook her head and said, āNo way. Heās so mean but we canāt blame him, can weā¦ā
To make it clear, Debbie doesnāt like Ye Lang that way, she did feel a slight attraction towards him at that time but her grudge against him was stronger. If she were given the choice, she would rather beat him up than kiss him.
Even though Debbie was rash, she wasnāt one to lie. She didnāt like it when people accused others of something they didnāt do, she would clear their name any chance she would get.
āThen thatās goodā¦ Debbie is actually right, he isnāt what you expect him to be. I could tell that he really wasnāt interested in me.ā Qiāer told the curious young ladies.
āIs there really someone like that?ā
āYes. Well, thereās Ye Lang!ā replied Qiāer.
She said it with so much confidence and she rarely lied so it seemed really convincing to the girls.
āSis, I saw him. Look there, heās lining up for a token,ā Debbie said excitedly.
āWhere?ā asked Qiāer.
āIn the commoner section! Thereā¦ā said Debbie as she pointed at Ye Lang.
The commoners and nobles were separated as they lined up for their numbers. It showed the differences in their status.
There were a lot of people participating this year. It took the organisers a long time just to hand out the tokens.
The commoner section had noticeably fewer people than the nobles.
This was a usual occurrence. Although commoners were the majority in the population, many donāt participate in this event.
Most commoners joined just to have fun, they knew they couldnāt win against the magicians and warriors that were mostly noblemen.
There were highly skilled commoners out there but they usually didnāt have the time to join events like this. They also risked offending the nobles if they did and would rather not.
However, just looking at the numbers, there were still a lot of commoners that signed up. They had no intention of getting the attention of the brides or becoming the champion, they just wanted to experience the game once.
The nobles didnāt mind their participation. Commoners are great for things that they didnāt want to do. They usually follow their orders without much objection.
To be frank, the commoners would do most of the dirty work to get awarded by the nobles. This was the reason most of the commoners joined.
Ye Lang moved to the commonersā section not because he was acting as a commoner but simply because the line was shorter here. He didnāt want to spend his time lining up.
Sure enough, after he got his number, he looked to the noble section and noticed that the line hadnāt moved much.
Ye Lang praised himself in his heart for making the right choice. āIām so smart!ā he thought to himself.
āYe Langā¦ā
ā??ā Ye Lang was confused. He looked around to search for the voice that called him.
Ye Langās actions attracted the attention of the others around him. There were looks of confusion, shock, disdainā¦
There was a reason for those stares ā Debbie was the one that called him. As the centre of everyoneās attention, anything she did would cause a chain of reactions from everyone.
Ye Lang didnāt look up to the stage, he just swiped the crowd then focused on his token. He was starting to think that he needed to take a better look at itā¦
āHere! Up here!ā shouted Debbie.
That didnāt work, carry on!!
āAh, itās you, Aibi!ā said Ye Lang as he lifted his head to see Debbie in her wedding dress.
It didnāt seem odd to Ye Lang at all. He didnāt care much about what people wore, clothes were just clothes after all.
āIāve told you so many times, my name is Debbie! Whatever, come up here, I need to speak with you,ā said Debbie. She had a much calmer reaction to Ye Lang calling her a wrong name than before.
Some mouths opened as they heard her speak. Why was that guy going closer to her?
What was their relationship?
Many people wanted to know!!
As soon as they were shocked, Ye Langās next sentence stunned themā¦
āIām not going! I donāt want to talk to you!ā said Ye Lang as he shook his head, rejecting Debbie.
