Chapter 83: Who is More Impressive?
Lou Jingfeng was deeply infuriated by Lou Qianxue, who was in the limelight now. “Unfilial daughter! Kneel! Who allowed you to speak like that to Patriarch Su? Who allowed you to make your own decisions?”
Lou Jingfeng had just received the news that Lou Xingchen had been introduced by the prefecture mayor, and she had been favored by the nobles. How could she get married to Su Mingyang now? Besides, how could a man trampled by Lou Qianxue be worthy of his Xingchen?
Lou Qianxue laid her cold eyes on Lou Jingfeng and spoke in a calm tone, “Back then, City Lord Lou went back against his words on the marriage alliance with my mother. My mother had to leave. Why can’t I abandon the half-hearted Su Mingyang like how you did?”
Hearing that, everyone remembered Madam Xuanji, the woman who had helped the Lou Family achieve the City Lord status at the prefecture competition over a decade ago. Their eyes instantly lit up.
“Madam Xuanji was so talented back then... It’s only normal that Miss Qianxue is more talented than others!”
“But if Miss Qianxue is so impressive, why hasn’t her name been spread around. Why is she regarded as a useless piece of trash by everyone?”
However, when they thought about Lou Jingfeng’s attitude toward Lou Qianxue today, the crowd understood something.
“Right... City Lord does not like Miss Qianxue... And Miss Qianxue had suppressed Lou Xingchen’s limelight, so he deliberately... ”
“But who is more impressive between Miss Qianxue and Lou Xingchen?”
“Perhaps, we would know once they fight it out at the prefecture competition!”
The crowd got excited as they thought about the battle between Lou Qianxue and Lou Xingchen.
But the prefecture battle would be held in Liuyun Prefecture. This was Qingyun City. Other than the young contestants here, only a few had come here to watch the battle...
“You dare! I-Is that how you speak to me? You’re asking for it!” Lou Jingfeng never liked Lou Qianxue, but he had never been this resentful toward her before.
Lou Qianxue had become increasingly capable and shone brightly in front of his eyes. Lou Jingfeng even felt that she was even more talented than Lou Xuanji. She reminded him of the young Lou Xuanji. His dignity took a hit, and the spite he had for Lou QIanxue increased drastically. He wished that she’d die!
“City Lord.” The First Elder of the City Lord spoke up from the sides. As if he hadn’t seen Lou Jingfeng’s expression, he continued, “Miss Qianxue defeated Su Mingyang. She deserves to participate in the prefecture competition.”
Lou Jingfeng was shocked. It was only then that he remembered where he was, and his expression instantly became uglier.
It was all Lou Qianxue’s fault for throwing his face!
She made him, a City Lord, look like a market shrew in front of the crowd.
Lou Jingfeng clenched his jaw and held back his fury. He unwillingly spoke. “Since it is so, the prefecture competition ends here. The candidates who will head to Liuyun prefecture to participate in the prefectural competition are Mo Ruhuan, Lou Qianyue, Ye Zhuixun, Su Deguang, and Lou Qianxue.”
The results were finally out, and everyone sighed in relief.
“Indeed, it’s still the three big families who are the most impressive. Other than Ye Zhuixun, the dark horse among, all of the selected come from the three big families.”
“Especially the City Lord’s Family. They have two.”
Amidst the discussion in the crowd, Lou Qianxue hopped off the stage. She walked to Lou Xiaoxiao and softly asked. “How are you feeling? Are you better now?”
Lou Qianxue’s current expression was a far cry from her aggressive and cold self on stage previously.
Lou Xiaoxiao looked at her, and her heart was moved. She smiled in return and moved her limbs. “Much better. Your pill is really good. Where did you get it?”
Of course, Lou Qianxue wouldn’t tell her that she got it from Li Bo’s storage ring. She only said, “That’s good. But you are badly injured. Go back and rest. I have something to do.”
“Huh? What?” Lou Xiaoxiao asked curiously.
