The Royal Banquet Begins

"I'm fine. And you?" Asked Liu Rushuang with a smile and a dull voice.

Qing'Er shook her head. "Young Miss, I'm fine too. I'm just a little uncomfortable being all tied up."

Mo Ye smiled at the sight of Liu Rushuang.

Other assassins looked at Liu Rushuang with a glimmer of hope in their eyes!

In the end, Nangong Ba only let go of Qing'Er under Liu Rushuang's request.

Liu Rushuang promised not to attack Nangong Ba, and so he untied the gold silk around Liu Rushuang's hands.

  ...

The next day at the royal banquet...

Nangong Ba and Lin Yimei arrived at the main hall early. Lin Yimei glared at Liu Rushuang with a vicious look in her eyes, as she sat beside Nangong Ba.

At the same time, Li Xiangling also glared at Liu Rushuang with envy and hatred in her heart. 

Liu Rushuang helplessly pursed her lips. It wasn't like she wanted to sit beside Nangong Ba... Nangong Ba insisted on sitting beside her to take care of her.
