My Dragon Baby and Billionaire Husband

Chapter 475 Turns out Ye Jingzhe is also a Little Dragon! 2

The High Priest hesitated for a moment, then raised his head to look at the Statue of the Saintess and said, "Actually, it’s quite simple. Miss Si only needs to stand on the palm of the statue’s hand for five minutes. If you are the reincarnation of the Saintess, then all the carp in the Mu Continent will swim towards you and gather around you. If you are not, not only will no carp surround you, but divine punishment will also descend. As for what that punishment is, even I am not sure. This was told to me by the previous High Priest."

Si Mingjing concealed a cold sneer in her eyes and remained silent. So, Bai Chuanfeng and Huo Liwen wanted to use this opportunity to shoot her? By then, even if she were assassinated, would anyone harbor any suspicion? Or would they just think she encountered divine punishment? Haha, how perfect!

Suddenly standing up, Si Mingjing was about to leave when a small hand grabbed hers. The soft but strong little hand managed to pull her to a stop.

Si Mingjing looked down at the small hand and, following it, saw Ye Jingzhe with a taut little face standing before her.

On Ye Jingzhe’s delicately featured, icy little face was written anger and defiance, and in a cool voice, he said, "She won’t try!"

Si Mingjing reached out to ruffle Ye Jingzhe’s little head, trying to comfort the little guy, and said, "It’s okay, Aunty will give it a try."

"I! Won’t! Allow! You! To! Try!"

Each word was steeped in resolute decisiveness!

Ye Jingzhe had said that in the Mu Continent, he would look out for Gu Shurong’s mother! Whoever dared to ask Aunty Si to take such a risk would have to step over his dead body!

The elderly Madame Bai frowned slightly. She also felt it was too dangerous. What if she wasn’t the one? Would she not lose her precious granddaughter?

"Mingjing, there’s no need to take this so seriously. We don’t have to prove that you’re the reincarnation of the Saintess," the elderly Madame Bai told Si Mingjing. "Sit down. Today is the charity fundraiser hosted by the Hua Family. Let’s not disrupt this formal event."

Si Mingjing smiled, pretending to sit down, when Bai Chuanfeng stood up and said, "Mother, Ajiu is my daughter, the only Dragon Girl of the Mu Continent. As such, she should be the reincarnation of the Saintess. I think it’s worth a try. If Ajiu is truly the reincarnation, then her status will be..."

"Shut your mouth!"

The elderly Madame Bai glared, angry that her daughter would risk her granddaughter’s safety for family honor!

Indeed, once Mingjing is officially recognized as the reincarnation of the Saintess, she will have the right to ascend the throne and become the most revered Queen of the Mu Continent, which will bring immeasurable glory to the Bai Family! But what if she isn’t? If divine punishment were to fall, what then of Mingjing?

Bai Chuanfeng feared Mingjing would back out. She insisted Mingjing had to die today. Not looking at the elderly Madame Bai, she said with righteous indignation, "Mingjing, the truth cannot be faked. Mother believes in you. If you don’t try today, everyone here will mock you. I will never allow others to ridicule my daughter like that!"

"Mother, you’re right. I, too, really want to try," Si Mingjing said.

No sooner had Si Mingjing spoken than Ye Jingzhe walked up to Bai Chuanfeng. He grabbed the low table with both hands and suddenly flipped it with great force, glaring furiously at Bai Chuanfeng. "I will remember you!"

The somewhat noisy venue suddenly went quiet, so quiet that the drop of a pin could be clearly heard.

It wasn’t until Si Lisao, seated at the head, lazily drawled, "Ye Jingzhe, how audacious!"

Ye Jingzhe turned his head. A flash of fire suddenly shot from his eyes, followed quickly by cute, charming little Dragon Horns popping up from the top of his head. This was Ye Jingzhe when he was extremely angry; his fury made him unable to control his transformation into a little dragon whelp.

Everyone else was stunned!

"Ye Jingzhe is a little dragon whelp?"

"Ye Jingzhe is from the noble Dragon Clan?"

Many guests present hadn’t known Ye Jingzhe was a little dragon whelp; they had thought he was just an ordinary child. Now, seeing the cute little Dragon Horns emerge on his head, they were taken aback, and the place erupted into noisy discussion.

Hua Jinse walked up to Ye Jingzhe, took his little hand, and said, "What’s so strange about that? My brother is from the Dragon Clan, so of course, his child would be a little dragon whelp!"

Everyone knew that the second son of the Hua Family was a noble Prince of the Dragon Clan!

So, after Hua Jinse’s reminder, everyone quieted down, thinking to themselves that it was indeed the case.

Si Mingjing also looked at Ye Jingzhe in shock. Is this little fellow also a little dragon whelp? So cute! So adorable!

Hua Jinse pulled an annoyed Ye Jingzhe, who was about to breathe fire, toward Si Mingjing to extricate her from the awkward situation. "Miss Si," she said, "today’s event schedule has already been set. I hope you won’t disrupt the rhythm. Maybe we shouldn’t test it? After all, we’ve invited everyone here today to participate in the charity fundraiser."

This was a way out, but Si Mingjing did not take the opportunity.

She said, "No harm, it will only take five minutes."

Upon hearing this, Hua Jinse felt Si Mingjing was being unappreciative of the kindness shown, essentially digging her own grave.

Hua Jinse furrowed her brow.

"Right, it’s only five minutes. It won’t take much time. Since Miss Si wants to try, then let her. We can all wait; it’s only a five-minute delay for the charity fundraising. I’ll just donate more money later!"

"Exactly! We’ve discussed it so much. If Miss Si doesn’t try, wouldn’t she become a laughingstock?"

"I’m here waiting for the result!"

"..."

The crowd’s insistent chatter left Si Mingjing in a predicament, making it hard for her to back down.

At this moment, Si Lisao, who was seated at the head, finally spoke, "Since everyone is so interested, little sister, go ahead and try."

Once Si Lisao had spoken, the matter was settled, leaving no room for change!

At this, all the Dragon Clan Princes present perked up, visibly excited!

Gu Changbin said, "She must try this! I need to know the result!"

Sheng Liuyun had already stood up. "If she doesn’t try, what’s the point of today’s charity fundraiser?"

"She must try!" Yun Yin stated succinctly.

They were all eager to see the crowd get slapped in the face!

They were even more eager for Si Mingjing to prove her true identity and ascend as the Empress!

This was also why they had been eager to bring Si Mingjing back to the Mu Continent. They wanted their sister to ascend the throne as the most noble Queen of the Mu Continent!

Today truly was the perfect alignment of time, place, and people—heaven was on their side!

Bai Chuanfeng was the happiest of them all. She was about to rid herself of this hypocritical daughter and remove a major threat for Bai Qingshui! Si Mingjing, today is your day of doom!

Si Mingjing, now the target of public criticism, remained calm amidst the chaos.

She looked up at the towering Statue of the Saintess. Suddenly, she transformed into a great White Dragon, soaring and winding upwards around the statue. She flew all the way to the upturned palm of the Saintess. Then, she reverted to human form. Standing high on the statue, she looked down on everyone with disdain, overlooking the entire Mu Continent!
