A Star Reborn: The Queen's Return

Chapter 1289: Spoils of War

“Right?” Another person said, “His real girlfriend has already appeared, why are you still clinging onto him?”

Gu Jinxiu’s face was pale and she looked at Wei Lingnan, feeling wronged. She wanted to redeem herself but didn’t know how to.

In the crowd, someone said “Eh... This Ms. Gu is so familiar, have I seen her somewhere? Wait... yes! I’ve seen her in the newspaper! An article on the high-end perfume interview. Ms. Gu is the perfume company’s eldest daughter, Gu Jinxiu!” The man exclaimed in excitement.

Gu Jinxiu was surprised that she had been recognized.

Usually, she wouldn’t mind being recognized, but it was different now. She had just been humiliated publicly, so how awkward and unlucky was she to have been recognized under such circumstances? Gu Jinxiu didn’t want to stay here anymore and turned around to leave.

“Wait, Ms. Gu, don’t tell me you’re fleeing from defeat.” Xia Yingluo refused to let her go.

Gu Jinxiu wanted to kill this evil woman, but she suppressed her anger and turned over arrogantly. “What’s your problem?”

Xia Yingluo smiled. “I had a problem just now, but not anymore. You can go.”

Gu Jinxiu was treated like a little puppy at her beck and call.

Gu Jinxiu was furious. “Xia Yingluo, don’t go overboard!”

Xia Yingluo was still smiling. “How am I going overboard? Tell me and I can change it.”

Gu Jinxiu was speechless. What could she say? She couldn’t possibly blame Xia Yingluo for treating her like a little puppy. She had already lost her face in public and didn’t want to be humiliated further. Gu Jinxiu sneered coldly and really turned to leave.

Now that the female lead of the show was gone, the crowd wished it would continue. Ms. Gu was a rich family’s daughter, and it was a rare sight for the crowd to see her humiliated. Then, the person who humiliated her was surely an even bigger lead. Where did this Wei Lingnan and Xia Yingluo come from? At that moment, the crowd was filled with guesses.

“I’ve never seen news of a rich family with the surname Xia,” someone whispered.

His partner also shook her head. “Who knows, maybe she comes from somewhere else. Look at how well this Sir and lady are dressed, how could they be poor? That Ms. Xia is wearing the newest evening gown just released at the Paris fashion show last week. It’s so beautiful, and I heard it’s very expensive. ”

“Yes, and elegant,” someone exclaimed.

In all honesty, Xia Yingluo was indeed beautiful. And her quiet and calm temperament expressed her noble and magnanimous disposition that naturally attracted everyone’s eyes. And Wei Lingnan? He was also extremely outstanding beside her. His slender figure stood tall and straight, graceful and charismatic.

Many girls blushed and secretly envied Xia Yingluo for having found such a handsome boyfriend.

Wei Lingnan didn’t care about the crowd’s scrutiny. He lowered his head and said to Xia Yingluo, “Are you satisfied?”

Xia Yingluo looked arrogantly at him. “What do you mean?”

“You were angry, didn’t you want me to chase Gu Jinxiu away?” Wei Lingnan said. “It happened as you wished.”

“Remember that it’s what you should do, understand?” She lectured him arrogantly. Her delicate chin was slightly raised, and her eyes were shining under the crystal lights, making her look like a bossy Queen.

Wei Lingnan was a little stunned.

It was as if he was seeing the Ah Luo from billions of years ago, standing above the whole race and surveying them at the pinnacle.

He... missed it.

“Do you remember?” Xia Yingluo scolded.

Wei Lingnan smiled and lowered his head. “Yes, my Queen.”

Xia Yingluo was unaccustomed to his sudden obedience and was stunned. She said, “That’s more like it.”

Was this the Wei Lingnan she knew? The man who had forcefully taken her the first time they met, then imprisoned her in the underground prison despite her protests. Now, he was so compliant he was like a little sheep.

If she had known that being his girlfriend would reap such benefits, why did she bother rejecting him before?

She should have become his girlfriend earlier, then suppressed him with all her might, just like how her Mother suppressed her Father, yes.

A few tens of kilometers away in the city, Li Lei, who was massaging his wife at home, suddenly sneezed.

She looked at Wei Lingnan with satisfaction. “That’s more like it.”

Wei Lingnan handed something to her. It was a cold, dazzling blooming crystal peony brooch. He remembered that back on the Skatana Planet, he had given her loots countless times, dangerous things such as Zerg skulls and black domain ores. They contained very powerful energy and many living things competed to obtain them. It was ugly and was even a little disgusting, and wasn’t worthy of her appearance.

Only once, he battled a group of monsters in a mysterious and dangerous star field and found one thing from the loots—a necklace made of beautiful firestone. It was a kind of stone that was useless except to look good, but it was really beautiful. Looking at the glittering necklace, he suddenly thought about how beautiful it would be to put this necklace on Ah Luo’s body.

He kept the necklace with joy, putting it together with the other treasured loots and brought it back to the Skatana Star.

On Skatana Planet was an endless line of clan tribe, greeting the triumphant warriors.

His Ah Luo sat on a high queen’s throne, accepting loot from all the soldiers.

When it was his turn, all the clan members paid close attention, because he was not only a powerful fighter, but he was also the sole guardian of the newly appointed Queen Ah Luo. What he brought back related to the face of the Queen.

Wei Lingnan offered his loot.

Beast Skull, Light Sword, King Worm Heart...

Each one was extremely powerful and amazing.

Ah Luo’s face was filled with satisfaction until she took out the firestone necklace.

“What is this?” Ah Luo asked him.

“My beautiful queen,” Wei Lingnan said respectfully. “This is a fluorite necklace brought back from the mysterious starfield. It’s perfect for you.”

As soon as his voice fell, he was hit hard on the chest, and his whole body flew backward. He felt her sharp claws make a deep and long opening in his body. Blood spewed out and filled the throne.

He looked up to meet her angry eyes.

“I didn’t send you to the mysterious starfield to bring back such useless things.” Her voice was majestic and cold. “Rubbish.”
