Chapter 118 Coaxed in a Single Second (2)Because it was only Wen Yantongs second time at Shuoyue Restaurant, she didn't know the way too well. Without any thought, she aimlessly wandered around in the winding corridors. Usually there would be waiters at every corner, but today was the Shangyuan Festival, most of the servants have given leave. Moreover, due to today's high traffic of customers, the rest of the people were transferred to serve people in various private rooms.So Wen Yantong was able to walk around for a while without being stopped by anyone.She aimlessly wandered for a while when she suddenly heard someone talking. Originally, her first reaction was to turn around and leave. Wen Yantong didn't want to eavesdrop and cause trouble for herself, but the words Little Marquis stopped her right in her tracks."I heard that he is going to Linglong Building to compete for the Snow Jade Arched Lotus Bow today?" Someone said."That's right, the news is solid. It is said that Mu Yang wanted it, and he had mentioned it many times in the past few days." Another person said."Wu Yutian, aren't you also at Songhai Academy? How is Mu Yang's archery skill?"Wen Yantong was startled. She didn't expect to meet Wu Yutian here, the enemy's road is indeed narrow[1].Then Wu Yutian's annoying voice sounded, "Mu Yang's archery skills are average, but Chi Jingxi's archery skills are truly commendable. On our martial arts assessment, we were given three arrows. He was the only one in the Academy that hit all three bull's-eyes."Then doesnt that mean hes bound to win the Snow Jade Arched Lotus Bow?"Wu Yutian replied, "That's not necessarily the case. No one is perfect, and everyone makes mistakes. Dont worry, Chi Jingxi can not always hit the bull's-eye, Young Master Jiang."Wen Yantong lightly humphed.She was no longer interested in listening anymore. After all, Chi Jingxi's archery was second to none.But just as Wen Yantong was about to leave, a voice suddenly shouted from behind, "Does this gongzi need any help?"This sound not only startled Wen Yantong, but also frightened the speakers inside the room. Wen Yantong gulped. Crap! What bad timing!She lifted her foot, ready to leave, when Wu Yutian jumped up like a monkey and grabbed Wen Yantong's clothes, "Wherere you going!"Wen Yantong turned back around and pushed him back.When Wu Yutian saw her face, he immediately yelled out, "It's you again! How courageous of you, Wen Yantong! You dared to enter Shuoyue Building!"It was too late to run now that she had been discovered. Because she was invited in by Mu Yang and the others, Wen Yantong didnt want to lose their face, so she retorted, "Why can't I be here?"Wu Yutian sneered, "I know, Fu Zixian must have brought you in, right? A mere illegitimate son dared to bring a commoner into Shuoyue Tower...""Illegitimate son?" Wen Yantong was not happy with the way Wu Yutian addressed her friend. "No matter what, he is from the Prime Minister's Mansion. Youre just a son of a seventh-rank official but want to forbid the entry of Prime Minister Fus son?"Wu Yutian was so angry that his face turned red. It was then that the other person in the room walked out, Wu Yutian jumped to his side and tattled, "Young Master Jiang, this is the person who eavesdropped on us!"Young Master Jiang walked over with his eyes squinted. His face was somewhat similar to Jiang Ling's, most probably his biological brother. Wen Yantong remembered that Jiang Ling's brothers were all incompetent dandies. Among them, Jiang Yi, the eldest young master of the Jiang family, was the most disgusting. He had harmed countless innocent girls in private.The one standing in front of Wen Yantong happened to be Jiang Yi. He was someone who didn't abstain from either gender. He studied Wen Yantongs face with interest. With a disgusting lust in his eyes, he asked softly, "Who is this little gongzi?"Wu Yutian hadn't noticed Jiang Yi's thoughts, so he directly answered, "Hes just a commoner from a remote county. Also, from Songhai Academy. He adulates Chi Jingxi often and always looks down on people like us."Wen Yantong looked at Wu Yutian coldly but she didn't bother to correct and argue with him but just turned around, ready to leave.Jiang Yi looked to his side and the guards around him stepped forward, about to grab Wen Yantong's arm. But the servant who disturbed the whole group just now stood in front of Wen Yantong. He said with some embarrassment, "Young Master, this is a person brought in by the Little Marquis. If something goes wrong, this servant will also be in trouble."Jiang Yi was furious, "Presumptuous! How dare you stop me?" The servant probably knew kung fu, so he was not afraid. He lowered his head and replied, "This servant dares not. If young masters are having a disagreement, how about letting this servant invite the Little Marquis and others over to settle the matter?"Wen Yantong finally realized the awesomeness of Shuoyue Building. It was an extraordinary feat to be able to entertain these high-ranking nobles in Chaoge without ever hitting any major setbacks. Most likely, not a single employee in this establishment was an ordinary person. Furthermore, she realized the authority brought by the title Little Marquis. As long as she was in a location where rules were enforced, she would be protected under the name Little Marquis.Wen Yantong was no longer fretting any longer.She smiled at Wu Yutian, "What's the matter? Do you want to talk to Little Marquis in person?"Wu Yutian gritted his teeth in endless frustration, but he didn't dare to retort to this sentence. Jiang Yi was used to being rampant, so he just said coldly, "Fine. If you want to leave, then Ill give you a chance. Just answer one question for me. If I am satisfied, I won't hold you here any longer."Wen Yantong stared directly at him, but didn't answer.The corner of Jiang Yi's mouth slanted up and he smiled sinisterly, "Tell me, who is better at archery, Chi Jingxi or I?"As soon as Wen Yantong heard it, she felt the insidiousness of this person's mind.If she said Jiang Yi was better, it would be tantamount to embarrassing Chi Jingxi. If the two were to meet in the future, Jiang Yi may use her answer to bad mouth and laugh at Chi Jingxi. But if she said that Chi Jingxi was better, Jiang Yi would say that he was not satisfied with this answer, and would continue to make things difficult for her.Wen Yantong understood his thoughts in a blink of an eye, but she didn't want to do as he pleased, so she snorted loudly, "What nonsense! Naturally, the Little Marquis is better at archery. Is there anyone who is better than him in the whole Chaoge?"Jiang Yi didn't expect her to say this, and his expression turned a little grim. "You should think twice before answering.""I'm telling the truth! With a clear conscience!" Wen Yantong sneered. Her whole face showed an obvious contempt, "Even if you have practiced for a hundred years, you still wouldnt be able to compare to the Little Marquis!"Her voice was loud and clear, echoing to the end of the corridor. And at the corner of the hall, Chi Jingxi stood with downcast eyes. The corners of his mouth slightly lifted on his usually indifferent face....Footnote:[1] the enemy's road is indeed narrow () - meaning an inevitable clash between opposing factions
