Princess Agent: The Sweet Country Girl's Way to Glory - Chapter 298
Chapter 298 His Test
I?
Who else dares to call themselves this palace? Isn’t it Qi Chengfeng?
Everyone looked over. Sure enough, Qi Chengfeng was standing on the same spot with Su Wanwan in his arms!
Qi Chengfeng lowered his head and whispered, “Little girl, I didn’t expect you to say you were waiting for me in front of others. This is really rare.”
“I didn’t say anything!” “Why are you here? Didn’t you say that you went to Qi Bei?” Su Wanwan’s mouth was stiff and her face flushed red as she glared at Qi Chengfeng.
“The semi-finals are here, how can I leave? So many men have squeezed their heads and wanted to marry you, how can I leave?” As Qi Chengfeng spoke, he looked at the crowd and the gentleness on his face disappeared. “Everyone, the semi-finals will begin soon. Everyone, don’t be lenient! Don’t say that I did something to you.”
“…”
Everyone looked at each other. Quite a few people were scared. How could they dare to be Qi Chengfeng!
Many people thought for a moment and immediately withdrew from the competition. The black-clothed man standing in the crowd put down his large cloak to cover his extremely dark face. Then, he warned the people, “Go out and bring Jiang Shaopang and Su Qing Qing over!”
After saying that, the black-clothed man left, and the servant followed suit.
Adding on the fact that there were many people who left the garden, there were only about three hundred people left in the garden.
Su Wanwan thought for a moment and calmly announced the rules, letting everyone paint. However, there were always people who wanted to cause trouble. To Su Wanwan’s surprise and helplessness, the person who caused trouble was actually Beichuan Fengliu!
“I don’t care. I also want to participate in the competition.” As Beichuan Fengliu spoke, his toes lightly leapt up and sat on the edge of the stage. He didn’t want him to participate in the competition, so he didn’t leave. Qi Chengfeng’s expression immediately darkened.
“Young Master Beichuan, do you know what the winner will do?” Qi Chengfeng asked indifferently.
“Why didn’t I know?” Beichuan Fengliu looked at Qi Chengfeng with an obvious provocative look in his eyes. “Third Prince, compared to you, I think I’m more suitable for Miss Zhao! You should consciously scram as far away as you can!”
Why is there a strong smell of gunpowder in Beichuan Fengliu’s words? Su Wanwan felt very strange and whispered, “Big Senior Brother, this Qi Chengfeng …”
“What’s wrong with Qi Chengfeng? Miss Zhao, don’t speak up for him. The competition must be fair. You can’t be selective! Why, don’t you even know about this?” As Beichuan Fengliu said those words, she looked at Qi Chengfeng with anger in her eyes.
Why was the smell of gunpowder still burning on her body? Su Wanwan was puzzled. She wanted Beichuan Fengliu to continue, but she didn’t know what to say. Suddenly, she thought of something and her heart sank. Was Beichuan Fengliu interested in her?
Su Wanwan’s body couldn’t help but tremble. This thought was too terrifying for her! Her romance in Beichuan was merely the affection of Senior Brother!
At this moment, Qi Chengfeng and Beichuan Fengliu exchanged glances. Their gazes interweaved in the air as if a confrontational electric current had appeared. Everyone was surprised when they saw this. Many people outside encouraged, “Eldest Miss Zhao!” This Young Master Beichuan must be someone who admires you very much! “He is a warm-hearted and dignified person. Why don’t you … let him participate in this semi-final!”
“That’s right! Where can a good man like Young Master Beichuan find a lantern!”
“…”
These words overlapped with the thoughts in her mind. Su Wanwan did not know how to look at Beichuan Fengliu, and her heart was somewhat conflicted.
Su Wanwan looked at Qi Chengfeng. Seeing that Qi Chengfeng nodded, she agreed. She remembered what she had seen in the village before, the landscape paintings Qi Chengfeng had painted, so she asked everyone to compete in painting.
Thinking of Beichuan Fengliu’s self-portrait, Su Wanwan remembered that although the painting was lifelike, the painter was not as good as Qi Chengfeng. She could definitely be compared to Qi Chengfeng, so she saved herself the trouble of dealing with the Beichuan Fengliu final.
However, who would have thought that Beichuan Fengliu was a first-rate painter! He was on par with Qi Chengfeng!
Sitting opposite each other in the garden, Su Wanwan did not know what the brush was doing, but she felt that it was as fierce as a duel, as if whoever was faster had the first chance.
They had never seen Beichuan Fengliu painting before. Everyone didn’t think that Beichuan Fengliu was just showing off. Who would have thought that the painting would show a person sitting alone by the deep forest pond. The zither on his leg broke a string, and a group of birds above the forest left the nest in shock.
After a single glance, everyone felt as if they were in a situation. They could even feel the loneliness and loneliness of the characters in the scene. Everyone was filled with admiration. “I think this Young Master Beichuan will defeat the Third Prince!”
“I think so too!”
“…”
Hearing this, Qi Chengfeng drew another picture on the paper like a flowing cloud. What he drew was a ragged girl picking flowers in the mountains with a tattered bamboo basket. The smile on her face was charming.
No matter what, everyone felt that Qi Chengfeng’s painting skills were much weaker than before, and even weaker than Beichuan Fengliu’s!
In the end, the artists and the others invited were only judged by the two of them, so there was no suspense about their victory. Naturally, it was Beichuan Fengliu!
However, before the judges could announce it, Beichuan Fengliu said, “I quit. He won.”
Everyone was dumbfounded. It was clearly Beichuan Fengliu who insisted on participating in the competition. Why did she take the initiative to withdraw now?
Even Su Wanwan was shocked, and a trace of guilt arose in her heart. Could it be that she had guessed wrongly? Beichuan Fengliu did not have feelings for her.
Su Wanwan looked at Beichuan Fengliu and only heard Beichuan Fengliu say indifferently, “Qi Chengfeng’s painting is not bad! From the painting, it can be seen that he has a strong affection for my junior sister, so I won’t make things difficult for him, so as not to make it very difficult for my junior sister.”
Everyone was shocked. So Su Wanwan and Beichuan Fengliu were brother and sister!
Su Wanwan smiled and looked at Qi Chengfeng’s painting. When the young girl looked carefully, she was indeed the same as she was when she was in Huangjia Village.
This painting by Qi Chengfeng was too realistic. The judges were able to get him to the end, and it was probably because of his identity. Thinking of this, Su Wanwan was stunned. She couldn’t help but suspect that Qi Chengfeng was just painting for Beichuan Fengliu!
However, he had to pass the test of Beichuan Fengliu! Su Wanwan supported her forehead and thought of the smell of gunpowder in the air. She immediately knew that Beichuan Fengliu was just guarding the gate for her. Her heart warmed up. She immediately walked towards Beichuan Fengliu and handed over the pastry. She smiled and said, “Senior Brother, you’ve painted for so long. You must be hungry. Quickly eat some to nourish your body.”
Beichuan Fengliu rolled her eyes, “Who just looked at me with a dark face?”
“It’s not me anyway!” Su Wanwan smiled embarrassedly and felt very guilty in her heart.
Beichuan Fengliu rolled her eyes again and ate a few cakes under Su Wanwan’s kind words. She only said that she had something to do and left. When she left, she handed Su Wanwan a note and asked Su Wanwan to go find him if she had something to do.
As soon as Beichuan Fengliu left, the matter was settled.
The winner was naturally Qi Chengfeng. He had nothing to say and did not dare to refute. This matter was settled.
In order to celebrate, Qi Chengfeng brought Su Wanwan to the Fragrance Gathering House in the capital and sat down. The two of them ordered several dishes before they spoke. Suddenly, they saw a tall and upright man walking over. He shook the bright yellow imperial edict in his hand and smiled, “Third Brother, why are you so happy? I wonder if you will be able to laugh when you see the imperial edict.”
After saying that, Qi Delong smiled and glanced at Su Wanwan, “I don’t think the two of you will be able to laugh!”
