Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“What kind of solution? Dr. Su, you might not know, but Chu Xiuwen is a despicable person! He uses his status as a prince to bully women everywhere. 1 couldn’t stand it and scolded him a few times before, and he publicly humiliated me in return. He even mocked me for being ugly and unworthy of speaking to him. He looks down on me because of my lower status, but I can’t bear to see him living so carefree despite his playboy behavior!”
Lin Sisi clenched her teeth, her heart burdened by this pent-up anger for a long time.
Su Yingxue coldly chuckled. “Naturally, he doesn’t deserve such carefree living. So, we’re not only going to slap him, but we’ll also make him experience the humiliation he’s subjected others to!”
Lin Sisi’s eyes lit up, showing great interest in listening to Su Yingxue’s plan.
Once they were ready, they rode into the forest. Today, they could only linger around the forest’s edge. The official hunting within the forest would commence tomorrow.
When Lin Sisi and Su Yingxue saw Chu Xiuwen wandering around the entrance of the forest, they immediately rode their horses over.
Lin Sisi’s horse blocked Chu Xiuwen’s path, and she pointed her bow at him, shouting, “Hey, are you brave enough to be our opponent in the hunt tomorrow?”
Chu Xiuwen raised an eyebrow, a hint of disdain in his tone, “Lin Sisi, have your face and courage both improved? You haven’t even bothered to look in the mirror before going out. You’re nothing more than a slightly better-looking toad.”
“You’re the toad!” Lin Sisi shot an arrow directly at him.
Her precise archery caused the arrow to strike even as Chu Xiuwen attempted to dodge, grazing a strand of his hair.
Chu Xiuwen’s humiliation quickly turned into anger. “Lin Sisi, you’re asking for death!”
He had always treated women as mere playthings, and their resistance was something he could not tolerate. He would crush them to assert his dominance.
Lin Sisi had been a constant target of his humiliation, and now, she dared to openly challenge him!
“Third Prince, Miss Lin is merely here for a challenge. If you dare not accept, then say so. It’s quite uncouth to resort to curses like this.” Su Yingxue sighed softly.
Her words were like a spark igniting the fury within Chu Xiuwen.
He pointed an arrow at Su Yingxue. “What did you say? This prince is uncouth? Su Yingxue, perhaps I should ask your father, the Marquis of Martial South, about your upbringing!”
“Ah, Third Prince, why do you have to question my father when we are fighting as equals? Or do you want me to go discuss your upbringing with the emperor?”
While anyone else might tremble in fear, Su Yingxue’s mention of Chu Mingyuan scared Chu Xiuwen, not her.
Chu Xiuwen wished he could tear her mouth apart!
Chu Chengye’s face darkened as he intervened, “Su Yingxue, Lin Sisi, if you want to enter the hunting grounds, then hunt fairly. There’s no need for challenges!”
“But we specifically want to challenge you. Seventh Prince, are you too afraid to accept the challenge?” Lin Sisi coldly snorted. She was just like Chu Xiuwen, born from the same mother. There was nothing commendable about him!
“You!” Chu Chengye’s handsome face tensed.
He didn’t want to stand against Su Yingxue!
He still remembered how well Su Yingxue had treated him in the past and wanted to treat her more leniently.
“Your Highness, Sister is upset. You gave me the riding attire first, and you only gave it to her today. Please, for Rou’er’s sake, don’t be angry with sister.” Su Yurou suddenly appeared, bowing slightly.
She moved gracefully, her voice melodious. Even Chu Xiuwen couldn’t help but cast a few more glances her way and praised, “This is the model of a Marquis Manor’s daughter. Su Yingxue, you should learn from your sister and avoid mingling with toads like Lin Sisi, who keep their gaze confined to a well..”
