The crowd had yet to settle from the shock of everything that had transpired.
Whispers still lingered, discussions overlapping—when suddenly, another figure stepped forward.
Seventh Prince, Yu Longxuan!
All eyes turned toward him as they expected another good drama.
He stopped a short distance before Mu Linyue, his gaze softening as it rested upon her.
"Miss Mu," he began, his voice gentle yet clear enough to carry across the hall, "from the moment I saw you today… I found myself unable to look away."
A slight pause.
"As foolish as it may sound, I believe this is what people call love at first sight."
A ripple passed through the crowd.
"I, Yu Longxuan, sincerely wish to take you as my consort."
Silence!
The words landed heavily.
No one had expected something so direct.
But before anyone could fully react—
Another voice followed.
"Seventh Brother, you truly move quickly."
A second figure stepped forward.
Third Prince, Yu Wenzhao!
