" Join in the competition," Xiao Jiao persuaded Mo Qiang who was not moving. " With your compose love ballad skill, you will definitely win and then you can ask for the seeds, he is from the imperial family, he will definitely have what we want!"
Mo Xiang looked at the status and then turned to look at Xiao Jiao with a blank expression and then smiled. Her smile was so big that she almost stretched her lips from one cheek to another as she said, " Good suggestion, there is only just one small problem. This prince …he hates me, like the kind of hate where if he was to see me burning on fire and there was only a glass of water, he will drink it!"
She then paused and raised a finger in the air and then added with a sarcastic expression, " And in case I was on fire and this prince was anywhere near me." Mo Qiang moved her finger left and right before she continued to speak, " Then it means that the person who was responsible for setting me on fire was this mer, right here. So pray tell me, how am I supposed to get seeds that can be considered precious from him?"
" Just use this account and join the competition under an anonymous name," Xiao Jiao shrugged on her shoulder with her tiny paws. " The security of this world is better than yours and I don't think that the prince will personally send you the winning gift if you were to win the competition. And even if he does, there are so many people living in this dead star, how is he supposed to know your address?"
"I do not think that it will be a problem for him," muttered Mo Qiang to which Xiao Jiao rolled her eyes and then said, " You are worrying too much, the prince is rumoured to be a serial dater, he dates one woman and then another but he never pays attention to anyone for more than a week. Do you really think that he will pay attention to an anonymous woman who wrote him a ballad to cheer up his mood? He just wants to get praised and feel loved and nothing else."
Mo Qiang thought over what Xiao Jiao said and nodded to herself what Xiao Jiao was saying sounded right but ——
" How do you know so much about this world?" Mo Qiang questioned the little squirrel who patted her chest and then said, " Of course, I will know everything! I am here to bring changes to this world, if I don't even know about the vessel, I am going to use how will I bring changes for the good in this world?"
Mo Qiang felt her hands twitch as if her fingers were itching to choke this little thing, she knew what Xiao Jiao was saying was the truth but she still felt like the squirrel deserved a beating. However, she did not use her hands on the small squirrel lest she was sent to jail for animal abuse. She just found out while wandering in the market even the animals in this world were a rare sight, thus it could be said that the form the fairy took was rather rare.
In the end, Mo Qiang also knew that there was nothing she could do which was why she tapped on the link that was attached to the post of the third prince and joined it with an anonymous identity.
Then she used the skill that she deemed pretty much useless and then typed the most cheesy and stupid ballad the thing came up with—-
' I love you the way, I love the moon.
Even though it's covered with flaws and so are you.
Don't be so hard on yourself to be perfect.
Trust me, you are even prettier than the moon.'
"It's so icky," Mo Qiang felt goosebumps rise all over her body, she was not used to cheesy lines much less sending love letters to anyone. This was why she felt icky all over as she hit the send button hoping that this small sacrifice of her dignity will win the competition, what she did not know was that this poetry of hers will even attract the attention of the third prince.
…
In the imperial castle while sitting in the greenhouse which was built just for the third prince, a mer with long hair that shone under the light of the greenhouse, with green eyes that matched the lush trees that were surrounding him. This place was something that the third, Qi Hong cherished the most since it was the only place where plants and trees grew in abundance making it rare and unique.
With his body lying on the plush couch he rejected all the love ballads and poems that were sent to him.
" Rejected."
" Rejected."
" Eyes are as green as a fresh pickled cucumber? How eww. She is comparing me with a cucumber?" Qi Hong rolled his eyes as he rejected another ballad and then turned to look at his servant who was serving him. " Li Wan, why are women so unromantic these days? They don't shy away when I hold their hands and they don't even take me on three dates before trying to jump in the bed with me. They are all bunch of scumbags now…look at this, I asked them to write a love ballad for me and they all came up with this trash. So stuuuuupid."
Li Wan who was massaging his master's legs sighed and then said, " Your Highness, this is a world where women have more than three husbands and men have even more husbands and wives than women. Where do you think you will find your romantic charming princess——"
" I found her!" Li Wan was still speaking when Qi Hong screeched as he sent his servants to the floor of the greenhouse.
" Your Highness?" Li Wan questioned as he scrambled to look at what his master was looking at and was surprised to see the love ballad poem that seemed to be different from the rest.
" Hahahaha. Look at this, this woman is comparing me with the moon that hasn't been seen in years! Doesn't it mean, she thinks I am something valuable!" Qi Hong's eyes shone vividly as he patted his thigh and then said, " Li Wan! Go and reward this woman and if possible bring me the information about this woman as well! Because I like her! I like her so much"
Li Wan stared at his master and sighed praying for the woman who attracted the attention of this mer who was engrossed with the idea of romantic love. Every time he said that he liked someone, it only meant that he wanted to gobble them up but then he will get bored of them and then throw them away.
The number of women whose hearts were broken by the third prince was so much that they could form a separate star!
