Yang Ye clicked his tongue and turned his head towards Bai Zhi, “You’ve lost, take out three hundred taels of silver, pack your bags, and head back to the Capital City. Land is hard to come by in Bailu Town. You lost three hundred acres, I’ll replace them for you.”
Bai Zhi’s body stiffened like a log. Her lips trembled a few times, then formed a straight line.
She had a feeling after smelling the aroma wafting from Qiao Xiaomai’s side, but seeing the small pile of wheat, her face couldn’t help but turn pale.
Cooking was what she was most proud of, a skill she had honed for years in the effort to impress Yang Ye.
And now, it was crushed by a country woman.
Out of ten people, none of them chose hers.
Not a single one!
This fact, like a heavy hammer, struck at her mercilessly.
Her beauty was natural.
Martial Arts, she practiced casually.
But her culinary skills, she had worked hard on them, and they were trampled into trash by a country mouse.
A sourness welled up in her nose and a layer of mist abruptly gathered in her beautiful eyes. She stared at Yang Ye without making a sound.
“What are you crying for? Miss Qiao’s dish is genuinely better than yours. If you don’t believe it, you can try it yourself.” Yang Ye’s eyebrows furrowed, “And besides, I’ve sent everyone away. The result of this contest won’t get out. You don’t have to worry about any repercussions on your reputation.”
He and Bai Zhi grew up together, and there was a sibling-like bond between them.
He felt he had done everything to honour that bond.
“Ye, my brother, do you so eagerly wish for me to lose?” Deeply inhaling a breath, Bai Zhi spoke, her voice trembling, her eyes filled with tears, “You shouldn’t have changed the way of choosing randomly, completely cutting off all my chances of victory.”
“I didn’t wish for you to lose. I wanted to ensure the fairness of the contest. The wager you proposed offhandedly may seem easy to you, but for Miss Qiao, it’s her entire property. Even if my father was here, he would do the same,” Yang Ye patiently explained.
Bai Zhi was always rational as long as he was not involved. Otherwise, she would not have gained the affection of his father.
Oh, he blamed his irresistible charm entirely.
If his charm were a bit lower, Bai Zhi wouldn’t have revealed such an ugly aspect due to jealousy.
Well, let’s let it go for now, in consideration of Bai Zhi acting out of love for him.
“Go pack your bags.” He waved his hand casually, and then turned his attention to Qiao Xiaomai.
A glimmer of curiosity shone in his phoenix eyes.
How amazing to find such a gem in a small village!
This eager anticipation was seen by Bai Zhi as him being eager to approach
Qiao Xiaomai and eager to get rid of her.
Why?
Why!
She bit her lip and reached for her waist.
This time she did not pull out her waistband, but a white whip. “Ye, my brother, you’ve gone too far!”
She, a noble lady, shouldn’t be trampled under the foot of a village woman!
Tong Sanlang, who had been watching Bai Zhi, saw her make a move and quickly shielded Qiao Xiaomai.
His movements were as quick as lightning, raising his long arm and grabbing the whip aimed at Qiao Xiaomai.
Yang Ye turned around impatiently. His phoenix eyes slightly narrowed, his tone cold, “I remember I once told you that jealousy makes people look ugly. Do you know how ugly you look right now?”
“Miss Qiao made everything taste good, there was no greasy feeling after finishing. If you don’t believe me, you can come and taste it yourself.”
“I’ve been trying to protect your reputation. If you keep on making a scene, 1 will have the Academy announce the result publicly!”
Among all these words, the most hurtful one was ‘You look ugly now’. Hearing it, Bai Zhi’s tears fell like pearls off a broken thread.
Who was she doing this for?
She was being accused of being ugly!
