Chapter 64: Provocation (1)

Shen Miao stared at him without moving.

She had reminded Xie Jingxing before, so she was naturally expecting him to go on stage. However, she did not expect to see such a scene. She did not know whether to laugh or cry. It was as if Xie Jingxing was purposefully helping her out, but that was not the case.

Xie Changwu did not expect Xie Jing to suddenly show up. He just wanted to please the Cai family. He thought that since Shen Miao had already offended the Cai family, as long as he made Shen Miao look bad and taught her a lesson on behalf of the Cai family, the Cai family would naturally have a good impression of him. Although it looked like Shen Miao was indeed good at archery, there was a huge difference in strength between women and men. Moreover, the reason why Cai Lin failed was because he underestimated her.

However, Xie Changwu was not someone who would underestimate his opponent. If possible, he would even do some tricks on the arrow. Shen Miao would definitely not notice the difference.

He did not expect his brother to come out of nowhere.

Not only were the Xie brothers stunned, but the others below the stage were also stunned. If the Marquis of Lin’an was here today, he would probably be stunned on the spot too. Xie Jingxing had never participated in the annual test, but even so, everyone knew that he was good at martial arts. Although he did not compete, he had fought in the battle a few times and won himself a good reputation in the army.

However, the reason why he did not participate in the annual test was purely because he was a person who did not care about this kind of occasion. Because he did not participate, everyone turned their attention to the two illegitimate sons of the Marquis of Lin’an. Xie Changwu and Xie Changchao also worked hard, so they could always come out first every year.

But this year, the most unworldly young marquis of the Xie family was going to compete with his two half-brothers. Who would win?

Although Xie Jingxing was famous in the battle, people were more familiar with the two illegitimate sons. In the capital, Xie Jingxing had never displayed his talent. People knew him mostly through gossip told by the soldiers who came back from the battle.

The young men were all envious of Xie Jingxing for being so carefree. They were happy that someone could finally teach Xie Jingxing a lesson. In addition, the two brothers of the Xie family were people people and had a good relationship with the young men, so they were all rooting for the two brothers.

On the other hand, the girls couldn’t help but blush when they saw Xie Jingxing’s handsome face. Looking at his extraordinary figure, they felt that he had a heroic aura that was completely different from the soft aura of the young masters in the capital. He was like a piece of ice flowing with blood. On his face, there was always an evil smile, making him look even more charming. Therefore, the girls were all focused on Xie Jingxing.

Shen Miao scrutinized the expressions of everyone present. These people probably thought that Xie Jingxing came up to challenge her two half-brothers on a whim. However… Shen Miao smiled. Xie Jingxing was not an easy person to deal with. Since he was already on the stage, there was no way he would let his two half-brothers escape unscathed. The difference between Xie Jingxing and her was that she still had some misgivings and had to take it slow to achieve her goal.

However, Xie Jingxing feared nothing because he had the Marquis of Lin’an behind him.

But was there only the Marquis of Lin’an behind him?
