Chapter 627

Lining Up (3)

, Debbie, do you really like him? Why do you keep defending him? asked Qier as she looked at Debbie.

Qier 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, Qier was worried.

Although she still treated him decently, that didnt mean that she would let her younger cousin get together with Ye Lang. Hes 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 wouldnt 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 cousins happiness, deep down she still looked down on him.

Debbie shook her head and said, No way. Hes so mean but we cant blame him, can we

To make it clear, Debbie doesnt 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 wasnt one to lie. She didnt like it when people accused others of something they didnt do, she would clear their name any chance she would get.

Then thats good Debbie is actually right, he isnt what you expect him to be. I could tell that he really wasnt interested in me. Qier told the curious young ladies.

Is there really someone like that?

Yes. Well, theres Ye Lang! replied Qier.

She said it with so much confidence and she rarely lied so it seemed really convincing to the girls.

Sis, I saw him. Look there, hes lining up for a token, Debbie said excitedly.

Where? asked Qier.

In the commoner section! There 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 dont participate in this event.

Most commoners joined just to have fun, they knew they couldnt win against the magicians and warriors that were mostly noblemen.

There were highly skilled commoners out there but they usually didnt 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 didnt mind their participation. Commoners are great for things that they didnt 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 commoners section not because he was acting as a commoner but simply because the line was shorter here. He didnt 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 hadnt moved much.

Ye Lang praised himself in his heart for making the right choice. Im so smart! he thought to himself.

Ye Lang

?? Ye Lang was confused. He looked around to search for the voice that called him.

Ye Langs actions attracted the attention of the others around him. There were looks of confusion, shock, disdain

There was a reason for those stares Debbie was the one that called him. As the centre of everyones attention, anything she did would cause a chain of reactions from everyone.

Ye Lang didnt 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 it

Here! Up here! shouted Debbie.

That didnt work, carry on!!

Ah, its you, Aibi! said Ye Lang as he lifted his head to see Debbie in her wedding dress.

It didnt seem odd to Ye Lang at all. He didnt care much about what people wore, clothes were just clothes after all.

Ive told you so many times, my name is Debbie! Whatever, come up here, I need to speak with you, 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 Langs next sentence stunned them

Im not going! I dont want to talk to you! said Ye Lang as he shook his head, rejecting Debbie.
