I'm competing with the male lead for a woman[GL]

Chapter 3: I feel a bit uneasy.

Without the intricate headpiece, Chu Shao was wearing only a red dress, but she was even more stunningly beautiful.

Seeing that Xiao Jin had only taken off the phoenix crown, Chu Shao was slightly surprised.

But her smile did not diminish, and she asked gently, "If the prince thinks that this concubine is obstructive, it's fine to drive this concubine out. Why did you take it off?"

"..."

Xiao Jin fell silent.

Was the female lead seriously ill? She was just helping her take off her headwear, so why did it escalate to personal aversion?

So she gave a succinct explanation, "The phoenix crown is too heavy and gets in the way."

At the same time, it was also somewhat unbelievable to her. She did not understand how ancient people could drink wine with such heavy headwear on.

It turned out that it was considered an obstruction.

Chu Shao smiled. She could understand Xiao Jin's actions. After all, many people believed that these complex ornaments would ruin their good fortune.

Before Xiao Jin entered the door, she had hidden a dagger under her pillow. Now she was already thinking joyfully about how to send the dagger into Xiao Jin's heart, from what angle.

At the thought of the pleasure of the blade cutting through flesh, Chu Shao's body trembled slightly.

Her heart was full of joy, but her lips curved into a gentle smile, "This concubine understands. It is indeed an obstruction."

Xiao Jin nodded, feeling that the female lead was not particularly old-fashioned and still had some intelligence.

Xiao Jin nodded her head. She felt that the female lead was not particularly outdated and still had some spiritual awareness.

But she did not expect Chu Shao to have to suppress her trembling hands in order to make her smile appear gentle and elegant.

However, the next moment, Xiao Jin's actions caused her smile to diminish slightly.

Because Xiao Jin did not do anything to her. Instead, she moved her gaze away and picked up two cylindrical gourds from the table.

They were filled with wine. The handles of the two gourds were tied together with a red thread, making it look like they were one gourd that had been split in half.

"What is this?"

Xiao Jin was silent for a moment.

The female lead had lived in ancient times for so many years, yet she did not even know about He Jin wine. This fictional female lead was too much of a failure.

Faced with Chu Shao's ignorance, Xiao Jin, relying on her experience of reading countless online novels, took the lead and introduced the native drink to her. "This is bitter gourd, and it contains He Jin wine."

Chu Shao smiled and nodded thoughtfully. "What is the use of this wine?"

If it were the original owner, she would have become impatient with Chu Shao's repeated questions and would have killed her with a sword.

Although Xiao Jin did not have much patience either, she was definitely better than the original owner.

Fortunately, there was no one else in the room right now, and the female lead had just met her, so she didn't have to worry about ruining her character.

Out of consideration for their first meeting, Xiao Jin maintained her patience and picked up a gourd of wine to hand it to Chu Shao. "It has no use, just drink it."
