Chapter 115 Why Am I Nervous

Ye Jinlan put away the jade pendant and stopped the farce.

Mu Jiyue seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. His originally frowned brows relaxed and he slowly sat down, only glancing at Ye Jinlan from time to time.

Sheng Yunqing rolled his beautiful eyes, tapped his fingers on the table rhythmically, and followed Mu Jiyue's gaze to look in the direction of Ye Jinlan, constantly considering something.

Why did the jade pendant make Mu Jiyue so nervous? She just looked at the jade pendant and then looked at Ye Jinchen in panic. Could it be... had something to do with Ye Jinchen?

Someone gently lifted and moved his chin, and Sheng Yunqing came back to his senses and looked into Ye Jinchen's eyes.

Ye Jinchen narrowed his eyes and gritted his teeth and said, "Miss Sheng, where are you looking?"

Sheng Yunqing looked at his nervous expression, with a little smile in his eyes, and whispered teasingly: "So nervous?"

Seeing her smiling face, Ye Jinchen froze a little, let go of her hand awkwardly, turned his head, looked at the competition venue and said, "I'm not nervous. Why should I be nervous?"

Sheng Yunqing looked at Ye Jinchen's handsome profile. His pretending to be cold seemed like he was holding back something. He frowned in confusion and couldn't help but chuckle.

"Aren't you nervous?" Sheng Yunqing sighed softly, resting one hand on the table, looking at Ye Jinlan and pretending to sigh, "Prince Xian is indeed extraordinary. No wonder you were so nervous when I said I wanted to marry him. He is more gentle and considerate to Ning'er than you are. I'm sure he is more gentle and considerate to women than you are."

"You!" Ye Jinchen was so angry that he turned around and saw Sheng Yunqing smiling triumphantly.

Sheng Yunqing's soft and playful laughter floated lightly in the air. Ye Jinchen's ears turned slightly red, and he was a little overwhelmed by her teasing.

He then turned his gaze back to the playing field, but his bony fingers unconsciously clenched the glass teacup, veins appeared on the back of his hands, and his fingertips turned slightly white.

Seeing this, Sheng Yunqing smiled even more, and deliberately moved closer, whispering: "Your Highness Prince Ye, if you continue to squeeze this cup, it will probably break."

Upon hearing this, Ye Jinchen suddenly loosened his hand, and the cup fell on the table with a "bang". The tea smudged on the pure brocade cloth, and the maid beside him immediately stepped forward to deal with it.

He glanced at Sheng Yunqing with some annoyance, but saw that she smiled even more brightly, like a successful little fox.

Ye Jinchen leaned close to her ear and lowered his voice, with a hint of helplessness and a hint of pampering in his tone: "Sheng Yunqing, is it fun to tease me?"

Sheng Yunqing blinked innocently and said, "It's fun."

Ye Jinchen choked up, suppressing the urge to teach her a lesson.

Ye Qianning ran over, holding Sheng Yunqing's arm, and said, "Sister Yunqing, play with me, play with me."

Sheng Yunqing smiled and nodded at Ye Qianning, then stood up, made a playful face at Ye Jinchen, and left taking Ye Qianning's hand.

Ye Jinchen stared at her back for a long time, and the corners of his lips unconsciously raised.

Sheng Yunqing was wearing a pink and blue dress. She chose a snow-white horse in the arena, stroked its head with a smile, cultivated some affection for a short while, then easily climbed on the horse's back, holding a polo stick, and stood in the center of the arena in a heroic manner.

Her long hair was tied up high, and the spring breeze gently lifted the hair at her temples. Bathed in the spring sunshine, the soft light seemed to have coated her with a layer of golden glow. There was a bit of sharpness and unrestrainedness between her brows, which attracted the attention of people on the sidelines.

"Miss Sheng's aura alone is enough to overwhelm others!" People at the table praised her again and again. Sheng Yunqing raised the corners of his lips slightly, and glanced at his opponent, with a hint of competitive emotion flashing in his eyes.

The horse neighed softly and stamped its hooves on the ground a few times, appearing eager to try.

With the referee's order, the game officially started.

Sheng Yunqing took the lead and rushed towards the polo ball like an arrow. His movements were clean and neat. The polo stick drew a beautiful arc in the air and hit the ball accurately.

"Bang--" the polo ball flew to the opposite half of the court. Sheng Yunqing followed closely behind, staring at the trajectory of the ball with a sharp gaze.

Sheng Yunqing's movements were superb, and with each goal he scored, the cheers from the seats grew louder and louder.

Bai Muling put the teacup back on the table, looked at her coldly on horseback, and snorted softly.

She stood up and slowly walked to Mu Jiyue who was also staring at Sheng Yunqing. She bowed and said with a polite smile, "Princess Qinxue."

Mu Jiyue glanced at her, picked up a grape from the table and put it into her mouth, raised her eyebrows nonchalantly, and said, "Crown Princess, what can I do for you?"

Bai Muling looked at her domineering appearance, but she was not annoyed. There was still an unfathomable smile in her eyes. She said softly: "Princess Qinxue, we have a common enemy. I also know that the princess has great abilities. Why don't we work together to deal with the people we want to deal with together?"

Mu Jiyue retracted his gaze from the arena and turned his eyes to her. He ate another grape, looked at her carefully, raised his eyebrows and asked, "How is your relationship with the prince?"

Bai Muling's body stiffened slightly, and her calm smile began to fade. She slowly lowered her eyes, chuckled, and said, "Your Highness is really straightforward. I am the Crown Prince's wife, so naturally I am the most favored by Your Highness."

Mu Jiyue's eyes curved with a meaningful smile, and she said: "Then you should just be a quiet Crown Princess. Why bother yourself with these complicated trivial matters for the rest of your life?"

Bai Muling didn't quite understand what she meant, and frowned slightly, but then he still smiled politely, nodded slightly, and said, "Sorry to bother Princess Qinxue."

"Hmph." Mu Jiyue chuckled, spat out the grape seeds in her mouth, and looked deeply at Sheng Yunqing in the arena.

Ye Qianning rode her horse to intercept, trying to stop Sheng Yunqing's attack, but Sheng Yunqing was not panicked at all. The corners of her lips raised slightly. She controlled the horse to turn around nimbly and avoided Ye Qianning's obstruction.

With another swing, the polo ball flew towards the goal like a meteor.

"Miss Sheng scored another goal!" Cheers rang out from the stadium.

Sheng Yunqing turned his head, breathing heavily, and looked at Ye Jinchen who was sitting there. His originally fair cheeks were flushed with warmth from the movement, and a bead of sweat slid down his cheek.

She raised her lips and smiled, her delicate eyebrows revealing a strong vitality.

Ye Jinchen looked at her with a gentle and tender smile, and fell for her little by little, unable to extricate himself.

“Sister Yunqing, you are so amazing…” Ye Qianning sniffed aggrievedly and said, “I don’t want to play anymore, wuwu…”

Sheng Yunqing raised his beautiful eyebrows and said, "You agreed to compete with me. The competition is not over yet. Come again!"
