My Unrivaled Princess: I Won’t Mess With You - Chapter 88
Hearing that, Luo Qianqian grinned from ear to ear but soon she recovered her composure.
Murong Yun was not going to say something to protect anyone’s feelings, once again, Luo Qianqian had realized that.
But Luo Qianqian found it pretty cute, especially at this point.
Luo Qianqian cast a glimpse at Murong Yun, she narrowed her eyes and the message it conveyed was, ‘Good call, you’re very perceptive.’
Murong Yun flashed Luo Qianqian a smile, he knew Luo Qianqian would never bear a love triangle and he wouldn’t like it either.
Luo Qianqian was all Murong Yun wanted.
Yue Qiqi’s face turned livid, she couldn’t believe Murong Yun just turned her down in front of so many people. She made a fool of herself in public.
General Yue felt embarrassed, “Qiqi, cut the nonsense already!” shouted General Yue.
Yue Qiqi turned green with envy, she couldn’t even think straight, all she could think was she needed to get back on Luo Qianqian.
“Luo Qianqian, how about you? I dare you to have a competition with me.” Yue Qiqi shouted at the top of her lungs.
‘Prince Eighth must be bewitched by this Luo Qianqian, Prince Eighth will fall in love with me as long as Luo Qianqian is no longer in the picture!’ thought Yue Qiqi. Read more chapters at Listnovel.com
“Your Majesty, please forgive my daughter, she is young and inexperienced, I will discipline her… …”
The emperor kept silent and that rendered the whole hall speechless.
They were worried about Yue Qiqi, and in the meantime they admired Yue Qiqi for her courage, no way would any other girl dare to confess her true feelings in front of so many people.
After a little while, the emperor pounded the table and laughed, “Qiqi, it looks like you cannot hold the liquor, that’s all right, this is a family gathering.”
Yue Qiqi heaved a sigh of relief, she was glad the emperor wasn’t mad at her but she refused to let go of such a good opportunity, she kowtowed again, “Your Majesty, I would really appreciate a chance to have a competition with Luo Qianqian!”
The emperor narrowed his eyes as if deep in thought, “Qiqi, you are a determined a girl, I will give you this opportunity!”
Luo Qianqian was shocked to hear that, she thought she had read the emperor wrong when she thought the emperor was hostile against her, but now she was sure of that.
The emperor could have totally punished Yue Qiqi for her behaviors, Yue Qiqi had offended Luo Qianqian, the future princess of Prince Eighth.
But soon Luo Qianqian calmly accepted this, ‘This is just a competition, no big deal, I can kick her ass if she keeps asking for it.’
“Eunuch Cao, take Qianqian to pick a sword!’
With that Luo Qianqian was escorted by several young maids to get changed and she picked a sword as well.
The two soon assumed position in the center of the hall, Yue Qiqi looked at Luo Qianqian condescendingly with a triumph smile.
Luo Qianqian and Yue Qiqi looked about the same height, but Yue Qiqi looked much more fit and toned due to her habit of martial arts practising since she was a little girl.
It didn’t look like a fair game.
“Luo Qianqian, watch out!” with that Yue Qiqi darted towards Luo Qianqian like a throwing dart.
Luo Qianqian squinted the sword in hand and took a deep breath, she was ready to fight back — but she wasn’t good at swordsmanship.
Clash.
The two swords hit each other, buzzing noise resounding through the hall.
Luo Qianqian’s right hand was in such great pain that thw sword almost fell off from her hand.
Yue Qiqi’a face lit up as response, “You are so much better in the hearsay!”
‘Luo Qianqian, I didn’t even give it all in my first attack!’
Yue Qiqi’s courage and confidence mounted as the battle progressed, she spun the sword in hand and launched the second attack against Luo Qianqian. Everyone gasped when they saw the sword was aimed at Luo Qianqian’s face.
Luo Qianqian changed countenance suddenly, this was merely their first encounter yet Yue Qiqi was attacking her like she was a sworn enemy!
This was all driven by jealousy!
What a cruel woman!
Luo Qianqian took a few steps to avoid the attack, she halted at the verge of the platform and turned left, with a darting she emerged behind Yue Qiqi.
Yue Qiqi didn’t see it coming, she almost fell. But thanks to her years of practise, she realized she was tricked promptly, she plunged her sword on the edge of the platform as support and regained her balance, and the next second the sword snapped into two pieces.
“Luo Qianqian!” Yue Qiqi turned outrageous, her heart fluttering with fear.
Yue Qiqi ditched the sword and launched a new round of attack with her bare hands.
Luo Qianqian was more than glad to see that, she was waiting for this opportunity for swordsmanship wasn’t her forte.
Murong Xue exclaimed in her heart, she knew her sister-in-law was about to teach this Yue Qiqi a lesson.
Murong Xue gulped down a cup of wine, feeling so relieved. She couldn’t wait to see how well could Yue Qiqi take her defeat.
Yue Qiqi clenched both her fists, throwing a punch at Luo Qianqian’s belly, Luo Qianqian dodged this punch with skill and ease. She curled her lips, feeling glad she had predicted Yue Qiqi’s move. Suddenly her eyes met Murong Yun’s, and she found Murong Yun was winking at her.
Luo Qianqian fought back a laughter before it could expose her, she forced the pace and took refuge behind Yue Qiqi’s back, using Lightness Skill.
“Luo Qianqian, where are you?” Yue Qiqi fumed, feeling angry that Luo Qianqian had dodged her attack again.
Luo Qianqian tapped Yue Qiqi’s shoulder, “I’m right here, Miss. Yue”, Luo Qianqian’s face a very careful picture of innocence.
Yue Qiqi was utterly discomfited by Luo Qianqian’s tone, she turned her fists into claws, aiming at Luo Qianqian’s face once again.
‘Young lady, not again! I’m not just going to tolerate this!’ thought Luo Qianqian, she regulated her breaths and sprang to her feet, with that she kicked Yue Qiqi on her shoulder.
Yue Qiqi had completely lost her balance and slumped with a thud to the ground.
“Qiqi, are you all right?” Luo Yuyan exclaimed and walked to her, supporting Yue Qiqi to stand up.
While Luo Qianqian smiled at Yue Qiqi, “Second round?”
Yue Qiqi refused to be embarrassed in public, she hobbled to Luo Qianqian.
General Yue sprang to his feet, “Qiqi, enough!”
General Yue watched the fight and he knew Luo Qianqian had been pulling her punches in this whole time, he was grateful for the leniency.
Yue Qiqi glared at Luo Qianqian, “This isn’t over yet.”
