Chapter 46|Betting with Life

The words 'now it's my turn' were said lightly by Shen Lisa but had an inexplicable chill in them. As it the sound was from the highest of heavens and hit Cai Lin heavily.

Cold sweat that was formed on Cai Lin's forehead rolled down as he stared at Shen Lisa, who was in front of him.

Shen Lisa took a few steps forward and bend down to pick the longbow from the ground. Everyone in the arena watched her every move as their eyes were reluctant to even turn away.

This was an unexpected scenario. One had originally thought that Shen Lisa would have fainted due to the scare or would have forgotten about her appearance, but she did not do any of it. It was however Cai Lin who was soaking in cold sweat and cannot even shoot any of the three arrows properly.

After a brief silence, the audience below the stage started discussing.

"It was true that with a father as a lion, the daughter could not be a dog! This Young Lady Shen is really bold!" The person who spoke had a not bad relationship with Shen Xin. Previously when he heard the rumours that Shen Lisa was an idiot and a fool, he was suspicious but with a look today, he knew that these words were groundless. To have such guts and boldness, how would one be a fool? It was obvious that it was someone's deliberate act to purposely discredit the little young lady's reputation.

"Indeed not bad. Did you see that just now she did not even blinked. If that arrow was slanted a little bit more, it would have injured her cheek. This young lady does really have the air of a general. Even if it was us up there, we would have jumped in shock."

"You also did not realise which family she is from? How would General Shen's young lady be bad? It seems that those words were just rumours and are not credible. Ai... No wonder one would deliberately discredit her. Wind damages the flourishing trees in the forest (destruction pursues the great), to be this outstanding at such a young age, no wonder it would arouse jealousy."

Most of the attitude of the people in the official circles of Shen Xin was rather good, after all, there were many interlocking interests. Moreover they were always working in the court and would not be as cautious as the womenfolk and also see things differently. In the past it was because of Shen Lisa's young age but now after growing up, she could naturally show her outstanding skills.

Prince Zhou and Prince Jing exchanged a look before Prince Jing shook his head and sighed, "Seems like both of us were wrong. She really is an audacious person."

"Number Nine is regretting it now?" Prince Zhou turned towards Fu Xiu Yi and smiled, "Such a unique female, how could one refuse initially?"

"A person would not change to be like this overnight. It should be that Fifth Young Lady Shen meet with some expert or else it would be that she deliberately pretended to be a fool in the first place. No matter which one is, Number Nine, you would still be in a loss." Prince Jing said.

Fu Xiu Yi smiled as he said, "A gentle and graceful young lady, unfortunately not the person I am delighted with." Regret it? Fu Xiu Yi did not realise it but it was Shen Lisa's calm and quiet look that fell into his eyes and it seemed to be a bit dazzling. He also did not believed that a person would become so different overnight. Was it possible that her previous self was a pretence? But why pretend to be a fool? Was it deliberately done to make him dislike her?

Pei Lang placed the teacup he was holding down. He did not know why but just now he was worried for Shen Lisa but she had unexpectedly held on. Not only did she held on, she scared Cai Lin so much that he could not pull his bow properly.

Shen Lisa was actually this powerful?

"Indeed an exquisite person." Prince Yu smiled satisfied as he stared at Shen Lisa's body fixedly, "I do not know... What kind of taste would it be?"
