Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 1813: Chapter 153: Cold and Indifferent! Out of Reach (Requesting Monthly Tickets)_3

Queen Lan Xin was taken aback.

This, this is the Hundred Refinements True Monarch?

How is that possible? He never used to have this image, especially now with this kind of inner demeanor that he is displaying, it’s completely different from the Hundred Refinements True Monarch she knew.

Queen Lan Xin felt puzzled.

But as the subsequent character image editing content was shown, she gradually “understood.”

The present Hundred Refinements True Monarch was no longer the naive young man who used to revolve around her, unable to utter a word for half a day.

He had experienced so much, gained a lot, and left even more behind, with only a passionate heart that never dimmed, striving for the rise of the human race.

He was like a vat of wine, maturing over time, becoming more profound and deep, seemingly offering endless secrets and charm waiting to be uncovered.

“No matter how strong the wine, it cannot quench my endless longing for her.”

Following this narration, Queen Lan Xin’s once dormant heart suddenly pounded.

Was he, was he talking about me?

She couldn’t help but become a bit flustered. What should she do if Hundred Refinements True Monarch began a fervent pursuit of her? Should she give it a try and see? No, that would be too shameful.

Or should she decisively reject it? No, that would be too heartless.

Or should she, like Hua Rui suggested, employ the eight-character high-level tactic of “seem close but distant, hot and cold”? That seems too shameless.

For a moment, Queen Lan Xin’s thoughts were a bit chaotic.

“Every lady present will receive three Spirit Flowers,” suddenly Wang Ningxi’s voice sounded, “You may gift the Spirit Flowers to the men who move your heart. Remember, you can only choose three men who move you, no more than three, you can choose less, but not more. Moreover, in the following interaction session, only the gift-bearers and the recipients can communicate with each other; all others are not allowed to contact.”

In the midst of speaking, staff members presented the Spirit Flowers, no more, no less, exactly three for each person.

However, as the flower-gifting session approached, the atmosphere on site fell into silence.

These Spirit Plant sisters who worked and grew up largely in the Hundred Herb Garden were relatively unexposed to the outside world. Although they each had a man who moved their hearts, none wanted to be the first to step out, each hesitating, unwilling to move.

Wang Ningxi had long anticipated this situation and smilingly ignited the atmosphere: “It seems our Bailian Hall’s senior brothers lack personal charm, as no one seems to have a crush on them. So, let’s start with White-robed Swordsman Luo Yongtian. I’ll count to ten, and if no one gifts him a Spirit Flower before then, we will eliminate him and send him off to East Qian Country, never to appear before you again.”

“Ten, nine…”

Before Wang Ningxi could count to eight, a Spirit Plant sister, couldn’t hold back anymore and walked over shyly to deliver a Spirit Flower, then a second, and a third!

White-robed Swordsman Luo Yongtian received a total of five Spirit Flowers.

With someone taking the lead, the atmosphere on site became increasingly lively, and other senior brothers also gradually received Spirit Flowers.

After all, everyone has different preferences—some like the “male gods,” while others prefer the carefree “wanderers,” some admire talented individuals, while others are inclined toward the humorous and reliable “big brothers.”

“Too few! I like many types, I need two more Spirit Flowers.”

“I also want more Spirit Flowers~ I just need one more.”

“What if the three men I give Spirit Flowers to don’t choose me?”

Very soon, all the Spirit Flowers in the hands of the Spirit Plant girls were given away, yet they still felt it wasn’t enough and began to protest vigorously.

Each Spirit Flower allows conversation with only one man who moves your heart.

Too many crushes, but only three Spirit Flowers, how would that be enough?

The heart inherently desires more; tasting fish makes one want to also try bear’s paw.

“Protest invalid.” Wang Ningxi responded sternly, firmly refusing to give in, “Ultimately, the one who can accompany you for a lifetime can only be one, now you at least have three Spirit Flowers, three opportunities to choose, and that’s enough. Think carefully, weigh your options, and give the Spirit Flowers wisely. Anyone making trouble again will be expelled from the social gathering.”

With such strict rules, the ladies instinctively became cautious and serious.

In fact, several of them even had the nerve to reclaim impotently gifted Spirit Flowers and then carefully reconsidered their targets before handing them over again.

Additionally, some Spirit Plant sisters started calculating their odds of success. For example, if a certain senior brother was too popular, having received six or seven Spirit Flowers, then the probability of “lovers eventually becoming kin” would be quite low.

Those with quick minds began to “make do,” targeting some of the relatively unpopular Bailian Hall senior brothers.

Indeed, even the elder, the Hundred Refinements True Monarch, received seven Spirit Flowers. No, to be precise, he received the most Spirit Flowers.

“?”

Queen Lan Xin’s brow gradually furrowed.

As the number of Spirit Flowers Hundred Refinements True Monarch received increased, her brow furrowed tighter.

She couldn’t imagine that the Hundred Refinements True Monarch, whom she barely noticed before, had now completely transformed and seemed rather popular.

She never expected that even her usually silent Spirit Plant girls would be so bold to offer Spirit Flowers to the Hundred Refinements True Monarch.
