Chapter 2511: Praising Each Other
"Tsk, I was originally going to talk about Shi Mu, but I never thought that it would help Bai Yi's lifelong event. We are really great!" After leaving Du Sanniang's house, they took a carriage back. Gu Xin sighed in the carriage.
"Yes, no one expected it. Xinxin and Sisi, you sisters are really amazing!" Lu Zheng said with a smile.
"Brother Yuanyuan, you are also amazing! If you didn't say something to stop Boss Du, my sister Sisi and I would have no chance to show our talents!" Gu Xin said.
"No, no, no, I just wanted to tease Bai Yi, the stinky boy. I never thought that Boss Du would stay." Lu Zheng waved his hand.
"Oh, brother Yuanyuan, don't say that. Without your words, things will not develop well later." Gu Xin insisted on her own ideas.
Cheng Huaijin and Gu Si looked at each other. These two people are really finished. They are just on this short journey back. Do they have to flatter each other for such a short time?
Is it interesting?
Especially Cheng Huaijin, he was not in a good mood today.
He was already upset after learning about Shi Mu's true purpose, and then he witnessed a couple in love discussing marriage there, and now he had to see his sister and brother-in-law here...
Alas, who can understand how tired he is?
As Gu Xin and Lu Zheng flattered each other, the carriage arrived at Gu's house.
Gu Xin was very sorry. Are they going to separate now? I won't be able to see Brother Yuanyuan for another two or three hours, so annoying!
After reluctantly saying goodbye, Gu Xin, Gu Si and Cheng Huaijin returned to the mansion. Lu Zheng watched them enter the door before turning the carriage around and heading to the Duke's Mansion.
...
The next morning, the princes and princesses of various countries arrived at the competition venue on time.
The audience came and sat down early, waiting to watch today's competition.
There were not as many competitions today as yesterday, so the Ministry of Rites prepared other programs.
There were four games in the morning, two for each prince and princess.
The ones who stayed on the prince's side were General Shi Mu, the eldest prince Tian Tian, Cheng Huai Jin, the ninth prince, and He Lian Yi from Gao Zi.
The ones who stayed on the princess' side were Gu Xin, Princess Long Zhu Er of Nan Lin, the female guards around the eldest prince Tian Tian from Dong Zhe, the maids from Shen Nu Guo who replaced Du Gu Ming Yue, and a princess from Xi Di.
The third round was still drawn by the eldest prince Tian Tian and Gu Xin.
The prince's competition was Shi Mu against the ninth prince, and Cheng Huai Jin against He Lian Yi. No one bet on this battle. Everyone agreed that Shi Mu and Cheng Huai Jin would win in the end.
After all, the ninth prince didn't have much skills at first glance, and most of his previous victories were given by others. As for Cheng Huai Jin and He Lian Yi, everyone who knew them knew that Cheng Huai Jin was definitely better than He Lian Yi.
On the princess' side, Princess Long Zhu Er of Nan Lin faced the princess of Xi Di, and the female guards from Dong Zhe faced the maids from Shen Nu Guo.
This is hard to guess, because everyone seems to be the same, so there are a lot of people betting outside the venue.
Fatty Wang, who is uneducated, made a lot of money yesterday. Today, he did not bet on the prince, but on the princess. He asked Gu Xin before she went out in the morning which two people he thought would win this morning.
Although he didn't have time to come and watch the competition, he had no choice but to exercise in Gu Xin. Gu Xin didn't give him a day off to join in the fun, but she didn't stop him from having people come to bet, so he stayed there obediently.
