"B-bastard!"
Ye Baizhi held it in for a long time before spitting out these two words.
The jade in her hand was hot, and she didn't know whether to hold it or throw it away. What if she lost it and the rogue in front of her wanted to get it back from her?
According to her current sense of Xia Lingxuan, it is really possible for this guy to do such a thing.
But Lu Zhenzhen, who was standing next to her, was attracted by this piece of jade.
Her father's position in the court was not high, but the good-for-nothing prince had never thought of letting her, Lu Zhenzhen, become the crown prince.
How could this not make her jealous?
Although she did not look down on Xia Lingxuan, the Crown Princess was equivalent to the future mother of a country. As long as the emperor does not establish another prince, no matter how useless Xia Lingxuan is, he will still be the new emperor in the future.
At this time, Qi Chen realized that this was a good opportunity to show off. He stood in front of Ye Baizhi and looked at Xia Lingxuan as if he were an enemy.
"Your Highness, your behavior is no less than robbing a girl on the street. Miss Ye has already said she doesn't want to see you again, but you say you want to marry her. How can you put Miss Ye's face at all!"
"Oh, what do you think Mr. Qi has to say?"
Xia Lingxuan was not stupid. He had already guessed that Mr. Qi was interested in Ye Baizhi, but he had no intention of stopping him.
He planned to leave at the last possible moment to minimize Lu Huiqing's suspicion of him.
"In half a month, there will be a qigong conference held by our court. Qi is not talented and wants to take this opportunity to challenge His Highness the Crown Prince. If His Highness the Crown Prince loses, then he will apologize to Miss Ye in public and vow not to pester her again."
"Oh? What are you apologizing for?"
"Just say it's rude and apologize."
As soon as Qi Chen finished speaking, the familiar system prompt sounded in Xia Lingxuan's ears again.
【drop】
[Accept the challenge and receive an immediate reward: Detoxifying Pill]
"Detox Pill?"
Xia Lingxuan raised his eyebrows.
[After system scanning, the host has been poisoned. If the poison is not detoxified within half a stick of incense, the system will leave the host]
No wonder he felt so much pain in his chest, it turned out that the poison was already attacking his heart.
Thinking of this, he gave Lu Zhenzhen another cold look. Lu Zhenzhen felt a chill in her body for no apparent reason, and she just thought it was because of the change in weather and gathered her clothes.
"Mr. Qi said this, is it possible that he is certain that this prince will lose?"
Qi Chen snorted. Everyone in the country knew that the current prince was a waste. Even if there were some inexplicable opportunities, could he still win with his ability?
Qi Chen has been learning qigong since he was a child. He is not only the best in the world, but also one of the best in the capital. He is more than enough to deal with a useless prince.
"Your Highness, do you dare to accept Qi's challenge?"
As soon as Qi Chen said these words, Ye Baizhi and Lu Zhenzhen's eyes moved to Xia Lingxuan, waiting for his answer.
"Since it's a bet, there can't be only one person making the bet!"
Xia Lingxuan touched his chin and pretended to ask questions. His face was worried and embarrassed, which made Qi Chen think that he was defeated and did not dare to accept the appointment.
"Then what do you think, His Royal Highness?" These words touched Xia Lingxuan's heart.
"I heard that there are three stores in the west of the city, and the business is booming. Your Qi family has been relying on these three stores to support the Qi family?"
"That's what happened!" Qi Chen didn't understand why Xia Lingxuan suddenly mentioned those three stores.
"I am a layman, and I love these yellow, white, and soft things the most. I will agree to this bet. If you lose, you can use the three stores to pay for it!"
"this……"
Qi Chen also wanted to agree, but he couldn't make the decision on those three stores alone.
"Is it possible that Mr. Qi wants to regret it?" After Xia Lingxuan finished speaking, Qi Chen wanted to agree, but was held back by Ye Baizhi at the side.
Her beautiful eyes glared at Xia Lingxuan, and then fell on Qi Chen.
When Qi Chen saw that his sweetheart had noticed him, his whole body was filled with joy, and his eyes looking at Xia Lingxuan were vaguely provocative.
Ye Baizhi has not forgotten that she originally just wanted to break away from Xia Lingxuan. Although she hated what Xia Lingxuan did, she didn't want Qi Chen to be involved in this matter.
It would be fine if Qi Chen won, but if she lost, she would become a sinner.
"Mr. Qi, you'd better stop interfering. I don't want you to have any conflict with the royal family because of me. I was the one who got into trouble just now and didn't think it through properly," Ye Baizhi said coldly, "Go back. It's not a good day to go shopping today."
"this……"
After calming down, Qi Chen also realized that he had been too impulsive just now. Those three stores were the foundation of the Qi family. If he lost, the Qi family would definitely lose its foundation. Of course, he felt that he would not lose.
Xia Lingxuan could see what Qi Chen had in mind, but his decision was already made.
"Mr. Qi, you were so angry just now that you were a beauty, and now you are timid. How can you look like a real man?"
"Although I, Xia Lingxuan, am the prince, I can't go back on my word. Are you afraid to accept this bet?"
His method of provoking generals was indeed effective. The young and energetic Qi Chen could not bear to be looked down upon.
"Your Highness, you must also remember what you promised to Qi. Please apologize and swear to Miss Ye in front of everyone!"
"It's easy to talk about."
Xia Lingxuan was in a good mood when he saw that Qi Chen had taken the bait. Ye Baizhi, who heard their conversation, saw that the matter had been settled, so she couldn't say anything for a while and secretly gritted her teeth.
Although she didn't really like Qi Chen, who was lacking in brains, she still felt that this incident was caused by her.
Lu Zhenzhen also watched the scene just now. She always had deep thoughts and always felt that there was a conspiracy hidden behind Xia Lingxuan's smile.
But she also felt that Xia Lingxuan was a loser. How could a loser plot against the Qi family?
"Master Qi, you'd better be careful!"
Lu Zhenzhen reminded.
"Thank you Miss Lu, I am 100% sure that I can beat Xia Lingxuan in this competition. If I can't even deal with a loser, how can I have the dignity to hang around in this city!"
Lu Zhenzhen looked down on her arrogant appearance, but she didn't say much. In the final analysis, this matter was also the matter of the prince, Qi Chen and Ye Baizhi.
Who loses and who wins, the beneficiary and the loser are neither she nor Lu Mansion. She just needs to do the post-event reaction that should be expected in a relationship.
"Then this matter is settled. I'd like to trouble Miss Ye and Miss Lu to be the witnesses of this bet!"
After Xia Lingxuan finished speaking, he turned his attention to Ye Baizhi, "What I said before is still valid. If one day Miss Ye cannot get married, I will be responsible to the end and will never be a treacherous person!"
After saying that, he ran away in a hurry, eager to go back and use the detoxifying pill given by the system.
After he left, only three people were left who were so angry that he could not speak.
Lu Zhenzhen realized something was wrong, so how could he inexplicably become a witness to the bet between Xia Lingxuan and Qi Chen?
This was somewhat inconsistent with her plan to stay out of the situation, but it didn't seem to be a big deal.
Ye Baizhi was a little confused.
Looking at his back as if he was in urgent need of urination, she felt an inexplicable feeling of dissatisfaction. He spoke so firmly and walked so neatly?
