If someone who's really powerful or influential said that, it would still carry some weight.

But the man's murmur made it seem somewhat comical.

Having been a noble lady in the royal city for too long, she then tries to emulate the imposing manner of a chivalrous knight-errant. Lacking both imposing presence and refined demeanor, she ends up appearing rather awkward and incongruous.

Shen Jiao felt that this statement was incorrect.

Why ask her if she dares to agree? How could she possibly refuse?

According to the rules, no one can refuse a challenge from the young master of the martial arts world; there's no choice at all.

Shen Jiao said, "Yes, you can do it, but is Miss Shen Yu's eye not feeling well? I've noticed you've been blinking for a long time."

To be honest, this girl looks like a clean and pure little flower. She's not stunning, but she's still quite likable.

But there seems to be something wrong with this eyelid tissue?

It keeps twitching, it keeps twitching.

From the moment he stood on the competition stage, he started twitching uncontrollably.

She's probably similar to that old lady with Parkinson's disease.

Chen Yu: "...?"

She's not feeling unwell at all!

She was clearly implying that if she knew what was good for her, she should admit defeat!

Shen Yu's eyes burned with a fiery rage.

Just how thick-skinned is Shen Jiao?

What is she pretending to be a stranger for? I'm completely speechless.

Shen Jiao wasn't a mind reader like Shen Yu, so how could she know what Shen Yu was thinking?

But after the girl twitched her eye and then her mouth, her face turned pale and then red, making her look seriously ill!

Shen Jiao prides herself that she is quite willing to help others in many situations.

So she sincerely suggested, "It's okay if you're not feeling well. If you're sick, you need to get treatment and see a doctor. Miss Chenyu, it's quite a coincidence that we're standing here today. I'll give you a 9.9% discount and guarantee to cure your eye twitching and mouth twitching!"

His voice was heavy with barely controlled emotion as he said, "If you don't dare to fight me, just say so. Why bother with all this nonsense to insult me? Coward!"

Upon hearing this, everyone started talking at once, discussing the matter animatedly.

"Which eye of hers saw that Young Master Shen doesn't dare to compare with her? This person really thinks too highly of herself."

"That's right, and her eyes were really twitching non-stop. I could see it clearly. Young Master Shen was concerned about her, but she still spoke ill of him. She doesn't know what's good for her!"

"Our young master Shen is so beautiful and kind-hearted, yet he's encountered such a troublesome person, and they even share the same surname, Shen. If I were young master Shen, I'd be cursing my bad luck!"

Shen Jiao didn't quite understand Shen Meizi's thought process either. She felt helpless because her good intentions were taken for granted.

She said, "Then let's begin."

Considering Shen Yu's poor health, I should be gentler with the girl.

So she didn't use her sword, but just grabbed a club about the thickness of her arm.

Seeing that Shen Jiao did not draw her sword, Shen Yu assumed that she was still afraid that he would complain to Shen Qingye, and became even more confident.

With that confidence, she didn't even make a move when choosing a weapon.

She merely stroked the hair ornament in her hair with feigned elegance.

Shen Jiao pondered: Holy crap, they were actually fighting bare-handed?

It seems this girl is a master of feigning weakness to outsmart others!

We'll have to do our best later.

Shen Yu smiled gently, "Before we begin, I'd like to say a few words to Young Master Shen."

Shen Jiao sighed inwardly, thankfully she pulled her hand back quickly, otherwise the club would have struck her.

It's cloudy today, and the sun isn't very strong, so it won't hurt to waste a little time listening to a couple of sentences.

Shen Jiao: "Yes, Miss Shen Yu, please speak."

Chen Yu said smugly, "To be honest, during the few days I've been in Rongcheng, my mother and father have been writing to comfort me every few days."

Shen Jiao: "Miss Shen Yu gets kicked every now and then, it's definitely worth asking."

She wouldn't write a letter if she had a son who was constantly bullied.

She flew straight up and chopped off the top of his head.

Chen Yu: "..."

Shen Yu's lips stiffened, and she continued, "My elder brother also cares about me a lot. He asks me what I ate and drank every day. I told him that he didn't need to go to so much trouble and that he should also spend some time caring about my sister, but he wouldn't listen. He insisted on caring about me, insisted on caring about me."

Shen Jiao sighed, "Indeed, after all, your illness is serious, and who knows, one day... sigh."

If she had a sister who was terminally ill, she would ask about everything, not just her three meals a day, but also where she breathed the air every day.

Chen Yu: "..."

Normally, when she said these words, Shen Jiao would be furious and make a huge fuss, then kneel down like a lapdog and beg her in the utmost humility.

Isn't Shen Jiao the one who values ​​and longs for family the most?

What's going on?

"Don't you want to go home?" Shen Yu asked angrily.

With the tyrant here, where can she go back to?

Shen Jiao said sadly, "I want to, but I'm an orphan."

What can be done?

Chen Yu: "?!?! You're an orphan? How come I didn't know that!"

Shen Jiao actually disregarded the original owner's background.

The main problem is that she has no memory of the original owner, so it's unrealistic for her to try to find her mother like a tadpole.

Besides, they weren't her biological parents, so it's no wonder she felt cold-hearted; she genuinely didn't have that many emotional attachments.

When she first arrived in the world, she was constantly on the verge of life and death, struggling to even protect herself, let alone have the strength to look for her parents.

Moreover, if the original owner had loving parents, it's impossible that they hadn't sent anyone to search for her for so long.

At that time, the Wei envoy said that she had been sold into the life of a dancer by a slave trader and that she should be obedient and work hard for him.

So, did she get lost and then catch the eye of a young man?

Or perhaps the original parents were struggling financially, unable to make ends meet, and, due to their preference for sons over daughters, were forced to sell their daughter for money, thus ending up in the hands of a slave trader?

Or perhaps, the original owner of this body was an orphan whose parents died, and who was chosen by a young man because of her beauty?

It's hard to say.

So, it's better for her to remain an orphan for now; that would be perfect.

Shen Jiao's thinking was quite thorough.

Silence is not so comfortable.

She never expected that Shen Jiao would dare to say such treasonous things in front of everyone.

Shen Yu was about to say something sarcastic when she suddenly noticed Shen Qingye's bruised and swollen face.

It was unclear when Shen Qingye arrived, but judging from his expression, he must have heard Shen Jiao say that he was an orphan.

Shen Yu was secretly delighted; her second brother had arrived just in time.

"Um, are you done talking?" Shen Jiao was getting a little tired from standing.

Shen Yu thought Shen Jiao was scared, and said smugly, "No."

Shen Jiao: "Oh."

Since there's nothing there, let's find a stool to sit on.

There are some advantages to being the young master of the martial arts world.

that is……

When you ask if you can borrow a stool to sit on, everyone rushes to offer their own stool.

Shen Jiao sighed, "Well, I was just ignorant. I might as well take on the role of the young master of the martial arts world."

Shen Yu was dumbfounded, waiting for Shen Jiao to angrily berate her in front of Shen Qingye.

result! ?

Shen Jiao actually found a stool and sat down?

Judging from this posture, he really intends to listen to her rambling?

Shen Yu was so angry that she was itching to punch herself. This was different, this was completely different!

Shen Jiao should have slapped her in a fit of rage, instead of sitting there drinking tea and eating melon seeds!
