Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“I don’t need you, Third Prince, to lecture me on what I should do. If you’re too afraid to accept the challenge, then admit defeat now. We won’t look down on you for it,” Su Yingxue said confidently as she touched the red jade soft whip that Lin Sisi had given her, her red lips curling with pride.
Her stunning face exuded an air of boldness and recklessness, captivating all the men present and igniting a desire to conquer her, to possess her beauty.
“Su Yingxue, you’re asking for trouble! Tomorrow, 1 will make the two of you women kneel before me and beg!” Chu Xiuwen’s face turned red with anger, his teeth clenched. Despite playing with women for so many years, there wasn’t a single one he couldn’t tame.
“Third Brother!” Chu Chengye attempted to advise him against impulsiveness.
However, Chu Xiuwen grabbed the reins and pulled him closer, questioning, “Don’t you want the Su sisters? If you let that wretch Su Yingxue become your main consort, how will Su Yurou ever have a good life? If you want to bring both sisters into the residence, you need to first subdue Su Yingxue. Let her understand that regardless of her lofty status, she can only be a concubine! In the future, the two of them can serve you together! You can’t be soft-hearted towards women!”
Chu Chengye’s fleeting sentiment of tenderness toward women was extinguished by Chu Xiuwen’s words.
Chu Chengye held his head high and took confident strides forward. “If you two want to challenge us, then Third Brother and I will accept. Just don’t cry too pitifully when the time comes!”
“FImph! Cry? We’ll see who ends up crying!” Lin Sisi slung her longbow over her shoulder, exuding a confident and heroic aura.
Su Yingxue spoke calmly, “Very well, we’ll see who the winner is tomorrow.”
The news of Su Yingxue and Lin Sisi challenging the two princes spread throughout the spring banquet, achieving the intended effect Su Yingxue had sought.
Satisfied with the outcome, Su Yingxue and Lin Sisi went to prepare.
Their training went unseen by anyone.
So much so that when Chu Yihan heard the news and came to find Su Yingxue, he couldn’t locate her.contemporary romance
Later that night, Su Yurou pondered the day’s events repeatedly.
Although she had intentionally provoked Chu Chengye into accepting the challenge. However, Su Yingxue and Lin Sisi’s smiles before they left made her feel uneasy.
Su Yingxue had been behaving oddly lately, and her mother’s advice still lingered in her mind, prompting her to be cautious.
She sent Yuan Ruo to inquire about it. When Yuan Ruo returned, she told her, “Miss, 1 couldn’t find out what Eldest Young Miss and Lin Sisi are up to. Even the Third Prince and Seventh Prince couldn’t be found. They’re being extremely secretive.”
“Why the secrecy? What is Su Yingxue planning?” Su Yurou had already retired for the night, but upon hearing Yuan Ruo’s report, she contemplated it and felt something was amiss.
She instructed Yuan Ruo to discreetly visit her mother and return with the information.
Upon her return, Yuan Ruo brought Liu Shulan’s words, her mother let her stop Su Yingxue and Chu Chengye from competing.
Initially, Su Yurou did not understand why. It was impossible for Su Yingxue to win against the two princes, right?
Even if she did win, it would only result in some rewards.
However, Liu Shulan’s letter stated that Su Yingxue was cunning and cautioned against the competition. Furthermore, Liu Shulan pointed out a way for Su Yurou to inform the empress, urging the empress to intervene and stop the challenge.
Su Yurou quickly got up and headed to the empress’s chambers.
The empress was about to rest. She felt that Su Yurou’s actions the last time were too stupid and did not want to see her at all.
However, Liu Fu, who was by her side, informed her, “Your Majesty, Miss Su is kneeling outside. She claims there is an extremely urgent matter concerning the two princes..”
