Chapter 198 Conquering him was effortless
Chu Xiaohe didn't speak, he just looked at Chu Yueli.
He would follow whatever decision Ali made.
Even if it's just the four of them participating in the competition, as long as it's Ali's decision, he will have no regrets.
Chu Yueli looked at Lu Fengjin, a hint of a smile in her eyes: "My elder brother and I are of lowly status, how dare we break with Your Highness? But our Duke's mansion has already submitted its documents, and the whole world knows that we are going to participate in the competition. If we back down now, wouldn't that be a slap in the face?"
She curled her lips into a smile, which deepened: "Your Highness, we also have our pride."
Lu Fengjin's face darkened.
Behind her, Tuoba Mingyue said expressionlessly, "Women all like to show off in front of men, but if they don't have real talent and learning, they are just ridiculous clowns. Miss Li, you are talented and beautiful, and you are already extraordinary in the hearts of men. Why do you still need to try to attract attention like this?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Fengjin glanced at Chu Yueli and lowered his stance somewhat: "Ali, if you embarrass yourself in public, it will definitely damage your reputation. There's really no need for that! Actually, you've already..."
"Does this young lady think that all women who participate in the autumn hunt are there to perform for men? And what about you, young lady? Aren't you a woman too?"
“I am different from you.” Tuoba Mingyue said this with a serious and earnest expression. “I have never considered myself a woman!”
"So, in your eyes, women are so worthless? Only men are noble?"
"I……"
“If Your Highness has nothing else to say, my elder brother and I will take our leave.” Chu Yueli turned and left, not giving anyone a chance to object.
Chu Xiaohe glanced at Tuoba Mingyue and then left.
Before leaving, the brother and sister could be heard muttering to each other: "We're women too, so why do we think we're superior and look down on women? Without women, where would men come from?"
"She's just trying to attract attention. Don't take her seriously, she's just a clown."
"Ah……"
Although the two whispered softly, they didn't try to hide it, and it was clearly heard by everyone around them.
Lu Fengjin's face was very ugly. He turned to look at Tuoba Mingyue and said, "Don't take it to heart. Focus on the competition."
Tuoba Mingyue remained expressionless: "It's just a drama of petty women scheming against each other, I don't care about it at all."
The palms hidden in the sleeves were clenched tightly, but no one could see it.
Lu Fengjin's heart stirred slightly. He felt that these words sounded familiar, but when he looked at Tuoba Mingyue, she was already staring intently at the archery square in front of her, studying it carefully.
The minor setback just now seemed to have no effect on her.
She was indeed different from Yuan'er; she genuinely didn't care, unlike Yuan'er, who only cared about showing her uniqueness.
Having spent so much time together, Lu Fengjin had clearly seen through Tuoba Feiyuan's previous hypocrisy.
Tuoba Mingyue, however, truly gave him a refreshing experience.
But what he didn't know was that when he turned around and stared at the archery square like Tuoba Mingyue, Tuoba Mingyue's gaze fell on him.
madness!
Such a foolish man, so easily fooled, it was effortless.
Suddenly, a figure came into view.
In my line of sight, he sat high on the horse's back, holding something in his hand, without holding the reins.
The horse looked wild and untamed, but under his saddle, it was as docile as a little lamb.
The man on horseback, his slender figure bathed in the light of the rising sun, had a pair of hawk-like eyes beneath his cold mask, which held a sharp, cold glint in them!
