On the other side, as decided before, Chen Rui and Shin Tingming appeared together in the great hall. Since it was a meeting meant to be attended by all royals and there was still time for it to begin, people were coming to greet the royal couple one after the other.
"Your Majesty! Your Highness! It's been a long time since we got the chance to meet you. But you two still look the same, right darling?"
"Haha … yes. His Majesty has always been the most charming among us, the cousin brothers. And Her Highness has always been adding up to his charms, standing next to him."
A couple said, clearly trying to act all good in front of the royal couple. But their good acts like that didn't stay for long because even though they speak all sugary to the couple, Shin Tingming or Chen Rui hardly tend to give any positive appreciation to them.
So, in the lack of any response, they had no other way but to walk away to mingle with others.
Once they were gone, Chen Rui turned to stare up at her husband. "Did you hear that? People believe that I have been adding up to your charms. That makes me more charming than you. What do you think?"
Shin Tingming's expression softened for his dear wife as he said in a tone of surrender, "I could doubt anything but that in this world." He said and Chen Rui only smiled more at him.
At that moment, a voice from a distance snapped them out. "Good morning to His and Her Highness!"
Chen Rui and Shin Tingming at once turned to look. Their lips curled up genuinely for once.
"Aunt Zhao, you are here." Chen Rui greeted her before walking to the old lady along with Shin Tingming.
Old lady Zhao smiled courteously and nodded. "It's a royal grand meet where my children would need my support. How can I not come? I have to be here." She said and at her say like that, the couple couldn't help but smile.
"Aunt Zhao, your presence and support means a lot. But you don't have to worry, we have plans. We won't be losing anything today." Shin Tingming said. His voice was laced with confidence.
The old lady looked at her boy and then his wife before nodding with a smile. "Indeed, the confidence on two of your face is already keeping me relieved. Anyway, with whatever plan you have, I just hope you will be able to shut each of their mouths once and for all. For the rest, just let me know when you need me to step in. I wouldn't be stressed but more relieved to help my children."
Chen Rui smiled deeper with more humbleness as she reached out to hold the old lady's hands into hers. "Aunt Zhao, we know you would always be there for us. We would definitely need your help when time comes." She said and the old lady nodded to her.
Then looking around, she asked, "Rui, our young generations are still not around. I thought for this grand meet, more than us, elders; they would be excited for this." The old lady said as her gaze travelled around to look among the crowd.
With her mention of the young generation, she not only meant Shin You Jun and Li Xue but also Su Ce and Shen Bingling.
Chen Rui followed her gaze and smiled, "I don't know about others, but Xiao Xue has always been punctual. She would be here soon and since You Jun has become her follower these days, he would come along with her." She said and at that moment, she looked like a proud mother who was very satisfied with her children.
Old lady Zhao didn't have a weak eye to not notice that expression on the woman's face. Reaching out to cup her cheek, she patted it gently. "I am happy for you, Rui. Finally, you have a daughter you always desired for." She said and Chen Rui nodded.
"Yes, I have her now. And believe me, Aunt Zhao, I can't ever have a better daughter than her. She is just as perfect as him and graceful as me."
"Haha … that's a perfect combination a Crown Princess can hold. I am not just happy for you two but also for our royal family. They could rest well knowing that their future wouldn't be going in the incapable hands." Old lady Zhao said as her eyes spotted someone at a distance.
Chen Rui's gaze followed after as she reassured, "We would make sure of that, Aunt Zhao. They would never have a command over the royals." She said and patting her shoulders, Shin Tingming supported his wife.
The ones they were looking at were no other but Su family of the royals. Although Su Ce wasn't standing among them at the moment, the face of others was enough to bring the disdainful expression on Shin Tingming and Chen Rui's face.
Right at the same time outside, it took some while but finally Shin You Jun drove to the premise of the royal great hall on time. Bringing his bike to park in the parking lot, he said with a smug in his tone, "Mission accomplished! Elder sister, wouldn't you want to praise me now?"
He asked and Li Xue simply rolled her eyes before getting down from the bike and removing the helmet from her head. "Praise you? For what? If you had given me your bike, we would have reached here faster than we have." She said as her hands went to proper her dress before reaching out to comb her hair as well.
"I won't doubt your skill elder sister. Indeed, you would have driven the bike better than me. But praise me for at least for not being worse than others. After all, I am still your younger brother. Am I not?"
Shin You Jun said and at his tamed words like that, Li Xue paused before staring at him with a weird expression. Looking at him minutely for a second, she said, "Wait a second. Did something happen to you? Being docile like this isn't your nature, then how are you acting like one today? Are you unwell in any way?"
She asked and the boy just shook his head. "Definitely not. I have just learned my best way. You are going to be Crown Princess soon. How could I dare to be in your wrong books? So, I am just getting myself prepared for the future." He said, and still in his words, Li Xue felt there was something different.
But before she could understand what it was a voice from a distance interrupted her.
"You are here, Li Xue?"
