Chapter 914: 914: He Doesn’t Approve Of You
Even if love was important, it would have been gone the moment her grandmother passed away. She didn’t understand why her grandfather was still persistent about being away instead of returning to the royal family.
If her grandfather had returned to the palace and taken over the throne when her grandmother died, her father would have been able to return to the palace. He would be next in line to the throne and following him, she would be next since she was the only daughter that her father had.
As she thought about it in this manner, Di Anran felt even angrier towards her grandfather.
The king’s crown was right in front of her, but these huge gates truly represented the distance between them.
She really hated this.
Life was unfair and she resented them.
However, even while she hated them, Di Anran could only suffer it on her own. She smiled and told the guards, “Please tell great-grandfather that I will be getting first in that competition. He should rest assured.”
The guard nodded his head and did not say anything.
“Sister Anran.”
Di Anran heard that familiar voice call out. She turned around and put on a friendly smile.
When the guards saw that it was Di Ranle, he greeted her in a friendly manner and asked, “Princess, are you here to meet the king? His majesty has some time right now and would love it for you to join him.”
Di Ranle smiled and said, “Of course, but since Sister Anran is leaving, I shall see her out first.”
“Alright. Please don’t take too long. The king has been asking for you.”
“Of course.”
Di Anran, who could clearly hear the entire conversation between them, felt awful.
When it was Di Anran, her great-grandfather was meditating and she was not allowed inside. If she wanted to see him, her guards would be the ones passing on the message, but for Di Ranle? She got third place and even embarrassed herself, but their great-grandfather only nagged her a little. When Di Ranle started crying, her grandfather and parents immediately stood up for her. They said that Country Z was a huge country with lots of talented people. Di Ranle was young and she was still a child, so her results and getting third place were considered excellent. In the end, their great-grandfather proceeded to compliment her so that she would stop crying.
A child?!
Di Ranle was at least 3 years older than her. She was already 23 years old, but they were saying that she was just a child and totally ignored Di Anran, who was much younger than her.
Inside the walls of this palace, she had personally experienced what power was. She wanted it, but she was still far far away from it. This was why she was unhappy and dissatisfied all the time.
Di Ranle spoke to the guards for a little while before turning to Di Anran and saying, “Sister Anran, let me walk you out.”
Di Anran hid the hatred that she had for her and replaced it with a sweet smile.
“Sure.”
They walked for quite a distance before Di Ranle opened her mouth, speaking as if she was much older than Di Anran, “Sister Anran, do you know why our great-grandfather doesn’t like you?”
Di Anran smiled and said, “This is because my team hasn’t become champions yet. He said that as long as I get them to win the finals, he will have the opportunity to introduce me to the public.”
Di Ranle chuckled and said, “Sister Anran, you’re so gullible. Great-grandfather became king when he was 31 years old and he is already 94 this year. He has been a king for 63 years. In this country, he is the one that sets the rules. Your grandfather is his son and your father is his grandson. You have the blood of the royal family. Whether or not you got first, you should still be a princess, but why didn’t you get his approval?”
