Chapter 1438 - Taking the Initiative to express goodwill (2/2)

“Sixty Forth State? Such a coincidence, so are we! It seems we are going to get off at the same place.” Yang Xi said.

“Oh? Are you not from the Sixteenth State?”

“There is a convention in the Sixty Forth State. We received an invitation, so we have to go there before we head back.” Yang Xi said.

“Oh.”

Sima You Yue’s reaction was dull, and didn’t have the curiosity that she had anticipated, so she suddenly didn’t know how to continue the conversation.

Fortunately, Li Yao, who was on the side, relieved her.

“Young Miss Sima, aren’t you from the Sixty Forth State? You should know about this convention, I heard that it is an Alchemist Competition for women!” Li Yao said.

“An Alchemist Competition for women?” There was actually an alchemy competition specially prepared for women?

She was a little surprised, she had never heard of it before.

“Oh, don’t you know about it?” The surprise on Li Yao’s face this time was genuine. A person whose family clan was from the Sixty Forth State actually didn’t know about this competition.

Sima You Yue shook her head and said, “I haven’t been back for many years. I have just returned and haven’t been back yet! Why are they holding an alchemy competition specially for women?”

“Actually, it isn’t.” Yang Xi said.

“It isn’t?”

“Mm hmm.”

“But didn’t you just say that it was an Alchemist Competition for women?” Sima You Yue was confused by them.

“That’s only part of the convention.” Li Yao said, “This convention is actually a women’s gathering, but there will be various events held such as alchemy and other competitions.”

“Oh?”

“It was said that it used to be for everyone to learn from each other during gatherings, but now it has become a match between women. It has completely deviated from the original intention.” Li Yao explained.

“So that’s it.” Sima You Yue finally understood.

“Young Miss Sima, may I enquire, what is your forte?” Fang Qi asked.

“Oh, just a little bit of everything,” Sima You Yue said.

“It seems that Young Miss Sima’s involvement is really extensive.” Li Yao praised, but she was saying the opposite in her heart.

Everything?

The three of them laughed in their hearts, thinking that she was just talking big, just like she was talking about building a spatial ship by herself.

“So, it seems that Young Miss Sima will be participating in these competitions?”

“It depends on the situation.” Sima You Yue did not promise anything. If she found it interesting then, maybe she could pop by and have a look.

“You Yue, I don’t care whether or not you are competing in any competitions, I will be by your side.” Lang Zhong said, “Anyway, wherever you go, I will go.”

Sima You Yue saw that the expressions of the trio suddenly change, as if the disguise was about to crumble any moment. If she refused this time round, another set of drama may unfold.

“Alright, do whatever you want. As long as you don’t disturb my life.”

During their conversation, Sima Liu Xuan had finished eating all that she had brought him and Lang Zhong immediately invited them to have a look at the scenery outside.

“City Lord Lang, we are also curious on how it looks outside, can you bring us along with you?” Yang Xi looked at him with her wide sparkly eyes filled with affection. If Sima You Yue were to describe it, ‘Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it.

Such a woman really had the qualifications to be the seed of disaster!

However, Lang Zhong was not affected by her at all, and he refused directly: “That place is too small to accommodate so many people. You Yue, Uncle Sima, let’s go.”

The corners of Sima You Yue and Sima Liu Xuan’s mouths twitched when they heard him.

Uncle Sima? Sima Liu Xuan was not necessarily older than him, right? According to Sima You Yue’s guess, he should at least be a pretty old guy as well!

He shamelessly called out ‘Uncle Sima’, how did he do it?!
