By admin | December 10, 201613 Comments

Two beautiful girls, one standing and the other sitting – this was a scene to behold. The customers who were having their meal were in high-spirits. In groups, they gathered and started a discussion among themselves: “The one standing is the princess of the northern Mongolian deserts, Qin Yuyuan.

“She is very elegant and alluring. Who is the one sitting? She has such a beautiful face…..”

“Did you not hear that the princess had said the one sitting is the Zhen Country Queen’s daughter?”

“She is Murong Xue. She was the one who was demeaned to a concubine instead….”

“Murong Xue, though her face is pale and she possesses a weak body but she has a youthful aura and she seems prettier than Princess Qin…….”

Murong Xue, prettier than her? A hint of gloominess appeared in Qin Yuyuan’s eyes and then vanished in an instant.

“Lady Murong (Queen of Zhen Country) was unbeatable. Murong Xue must have inherited her skills. But she keeps declining, claiming that her skills aren’t good. Is it because she thinks Princess Qin’s skills are so poor that she doesn’t deserve to even learn from her?” the voices of exchange rambled on, a third of them were quiet, another somber and the other argued on fiercely.

Ouyang Shaochen’s jet-black diamond-like eyes were quiet, he stared at Qin Yuyuan coldly. He was about to open his mouth to say something when Murong Xue stopped him and smiled at Qin Yuyuan.

To force Murong Xue to compete with her, she had brought up her host’s deceased mother who had passed away 10 years ago. If she didn’t comply, maybe she would’ve even brought up the topic of the host’s ancestors!

As a descendant, she couldn’t help them restore their former glory. But she will not let them not rest in peace. It’s only a matter of playing the Yangqin, she will oblige!

“A simple competition is too boring, what about if we bet on something?”

Qin Yuyuan smiled. That means she has agreed to play.

“What should we bet on then?”

Qin Yuyuan’s purpose was to just force Murong Xue to play the Yangqin, so Murong Xue can make all the rules she likes. The more rules she makes, the more she would be humiliated in front of everyone!

“Let’s bet on the Yangqin you have!” MuRong Xue said, “It looks like a Jiaowei Yangqin, if I win, it shall be mine……”

* Jiaowei Yangqin is a type of Yangqin (a traditional Chinese musical instrument)

Win? Such guts!

Qin Yuyuan has met many gifted players in the desert but none of which who could beat her!

Qin Yuyuan looked at Murong Xue, “What if you lose?”

“I will pay you a Yangqin with the same value as a Jiaowei Yangqin!” Murong Xue responded with a serious tone.

“Deal!” Qin Yuyuan’s eyes gleamed. She wasn’t interested in what she would pay her when she lost.

Instead, she just wanted to see the result of Murong Xue losing. If there was something that could make people remember that Murong Xue’s skills were not like they had expected, it was her obligation to do so.

“Deal!” Murong Xue replied readily. She looked out the door with the corner of her eye: “Waiter, bring me a Yangqin!”

Qin Yuyuan returned to the Lanxiang private room, in which the door was opened, and sat in front of her Jiaowei Yangqin. The waiter went into Meixiang private room to deliver the Yangqin and placed it in front of Murong Xue.

At that moment, the atmosphere at Yueyang Restaurant instantly became uproarious.
