Chapter 297: Because he cares about you

Although Chen Ning boasted about her chances, after personally witnessing Chu Shao Yang's archery skills, she really felt helpless about winning.

She saw the iron bow that Chu Shao Yang snapped on the ground and did not want to practice anymore.

Even if she trained hard for three years, she absolutely could never compare with Chu Shao Yang.

She walked back into the room in a depressed manner. There has been no news from Xiao Bai since he left, what if he didn't make it back in time for the competition?

Even if he rushed back, would she be able to win against Chu Shao Yang?

No, she had to depend on herself to think of a foolproof way to win this match.

"His archery skills are very good, you can't compare to him." Mo Chuan's figure appeared from the flowers.

Hearing this, Chen Ning knew that he had seen everything just now.

"I know, but I have to win!" She gritted her teeth.

"Why? Just for a horse?" Mo Chuan knitted his handsome brows, "It was a nice horse, but aren't there many horses in this world? If you like horses, then I can give you a better one."

"Of course it isn't just for a single horse. Although I like that horse, I wouldn't trade my freedom just for a horse. I just didn't like his tone, so that's why I have to win!"

"What happens if you lose? Will you spend your entire life as his slave?" Mo Chuan's black eyes stared right at her.

"I will not lose!" Chen Ning raised her brows and pulled off her veil.

Thinking about how the veil was something Chu Shao Yang gave her, she threw it to the floor and forcefully stomped on it.

"Actually, Chu Shao Yang, he.....isn't a merciless person. If you really lose, as long as you lower your head to him, he won't make it hard for you. The fact that he came to look for you today means that.....he does care about you a bit." Mo Chuan thought for a bit before slowly saying this.

"Cares about me?" She gave a cold smile and said in a sarcastic voice, "That's right, he really cares about me! On our wedding night, when I fainted after vomiting blood, he sent me to the wooden shed and let nature run its course because he cares about me. After three days of being married, he took Chen Bi Yun as a concubine consort because he cares about me. He tried several times to kill me for Chen Bi Yun, all because he cares about me! Being cared about by a man like this, I, Chen Ning am really lucky!"

"You don't know, but Chu Shao Yang, he....." Mo Chuan revealed a complicated expression.

"Chu Shao Yang, Chu Shao Yang!" Chen Ning cut him off. When she heard the name Chu Shao Yang, she felt a headache coming on.

She narrowed her eyes and stared at Mo Chuan, "Xiao Hei, who is Chu Shao Yang to you? Why are you speaking up for him? Do you know that he almost threw me in the lake to feed the turtles! Where were you then? Didn't you say that you would protect me and not let me lose a single hair?"


When she remembered what just happened, she couldn't help shuddering.

If it wasn't for her wit, she wouldn't have lived past that!

Faced with her accusations, Mo Chuan calmly looked at her and said, "It was because I knew he wouldn't make a move and you wouldn't lose a hair. Otherwise, I would not have let him off."

"Then that means you were here the whole time?" She was filled with anger, "Then why did you not save me!"

Mo Chuan did not answer her. His eyes were in thought as he stared at her face and said, "Why don't you let him see your original appearance? If he sees you, he will....."

Chapter 298: Willing to give him a chance

"If he sees my face, will he let me off?" Chen Ning asked, "Do you want him to be charmed by my face? You don't know this, but I threw two thunderbolt eggs at him before and almost disfigured him. He clearly saw my face at the time and he realized that I was the person that attacked him, what do you think will happen?"

"Thunderbolt eggs? What are those? What to tell me about them?" Mo Chuan felt very interested.

Chen Ning was very proud of this matter, so she didn't hide it. She clearly told him everything that happened.

When Mo Chaun heard everything, although he found it funny, he also broke out in a cold sweat for her.

"You really are bold! Do you know what kind of martial arts Chu Shao Yang has? You still dared to provoke him like this! If it wasn't for your good luck, then you would have died under his palm! You're not allowed to do anything stupid like this in the future!" He said in a commanding tone.

"Alright, I won't do it again in the future." Chen Ning did not feel embarrassed and just honestly nodded.

"I heard that Chu Shao Yang gave a series of farts in court a while back. Was that something caused by you?"

Mo Chuan suddenly asked as his lips twitched a few times.

Once Chen Ning heard this, she bent over with laughter.

"I never knew your intelligence network is so wide. You even know this?" She beamed with joy, "It really is good things are unknown, bad things are spread a thousand miles. I think the entire capital knows about Chu Shao Yang's mistake, right? This is retribution for the wicked!"

"This girl, it really is you. How did you do it" Mo Chuan wanted to laugh, but he forced it down.

"He, he, I can't tell you this. If you offend me one day, I'll use this same move against you!" Chen Ning rolled her eyes. She looked just like a cunning little fox.

"Then do you know the consequences of offending me?" Mo Chuan's expression remained constant and his hands were behind his back, as if he did not care at all.

The more he acted this way, the more Chen Ning could not see through him. Sticking out her tongue, she giggle and said, "I don't dare. I'm afraid you'll take my head in the middle of the night."

"If I wanted your head, why would I wait for the middle of the night!" He looked over at her.

"Then would you cut off my head?" She looked up and asked.

He seriously thought about it and then looked down at her. With a faint grin he said, "No." Then after a pause, he added, "I would never do it."

Chen Ning's heart suddenly skipped a beat and her cheeks became a little warm.

She quickly looked down, avoiding his gaze. Her heart was like a deer caught in the headlights, beating without stopping.

Chen Ning, ah Chen Ning, what is wrong with you? He didn't say anything pleasant. All he said was that he wouldn't cut off your head, do you need to be this happy?
