Genius Doctor Black Belly Miss (Part 1)

Lei Yuan's mind began to whirl. He could see that Jun Xie had not been completely receptive to Lei Chen's overtures. Would that come to mean that Jun Xie did not really like Lei Chen much? Would that also mean that he might stand a chance as well?

When that thought came into his mind, Lei Yuan's heart soared. Unwilling to give up just like that, he immediately tugged at his clothes to straighten them as much as he could, and carefully adjusted the expression on his face before walking out into the garden.

Jun Wu Xie had just managed to shoo off a bunch of unruly kids who didn't know their place and now, she was suddenly confronted by a "human ball" who was currently "rolling" towards her.

"Is our little brother here alright? I saw people from the Dragon Slayers Academy coming towards here earlier and was worried that they might have been disrespectful to you. They didn't do anything did they?" A complete change from the utter contempt he had shown Jun Wu Xie earlier at the banquet, Lei Yuan came near with a big wide smile on his face, coming to a stop before Jun Wu Xie. He was determined to put forth an image of politeness and grace, but with his pudgy and rotund body, his entire being jiggled when he gave out an uneasy laugh, becoming the complete opposite of what he was trying to portray.

Jun Wu Xie frowned slightly, as she looked at Lei Yuan who was really so obese he was almost practically a round ball.

If she remembered correctly, the ball before her at that moment, should be the Yan Country's Second Prince. Earlier at the banquet, he had shown nothing but contempt for the Zephyr Academy, so why had changed so abruptly now?

Chapter 783: "Banquet (10)"

"I'm fine." Jun Wu Xie couldn't even be bothered to guess at the reason for Lei Yuan's change in attitude and she threw him a response carelessly before immediately turning away to continue her appreciation of the beautiful garden bathed in the soft moonlight.

Soundly snubbed by Jun Wu Xie, Lei Yuan did not take the slightest offence but instead walked forward and continued to try to initiate a chat. "Good that you are fine. The Spirit Battle Tournament is hosted by us and if we allow the candidates to sustain any injuries before the tournament starts, it would be a failure on our part."

Jun Wu Xie threw a glance at Lei Yuan, as the suspicions in her heart grew.

Lei Chen's actions before had already puzzled her somewhat as she did not think that the Zephyr Academy in its decline had anything to offer him but Lei Chen had still insisted on sticking to them. That had already been detesting and she had avoided Lei Chen. And now, another Lei Yuan had come knocking. Were all the princes of the Yan Country like this? Were they all born with rocks in their heads?

Besides her family members and her companions, Jun Wu Xie didn't like to speak to others. Lei Yuan was jabbering non stop and Jun Wu Xie interrupted him by saying curtly: "Going back."

And she turned on her foot to return to the banquet without another word.

Lei Yuan's face was one of complete speechlessness as the moonlight shone on it. He had thought that Jun Xie had given Lei Chen the cold shoulder because Jun Xie did not like Lei Chen personally and now that he was treated in a manner not unlike Lei Chen, he began to think that it was just that the youth possessed a cold personality and it didn't make a difference who the person approaching her was.

"Second Prince?" The attendant at Lei Yuan's side asked softly in caution when he saw the Second Prince's chubby face frozen in mid sentence.

"Back to the banquet!" Lei Yuan spat out through his tightly clenched jaws. With the exception of Lei Chen, no one had dared to snub him so badly. He was about to burst out in rage but when he recalled the bright green spirit glow that had flared out from Jun Xie's body earlier, he held down his anger and did not dare to act rashly.
