"Oh, look, he's here today too."
Everyone's gaze followed the figure, and there stood a person on the outskirts of the horse farm. He was tall, imposing, and powerful. Although they could not see his facial features, they knew he must be someone extraordinary.
"I didn't expect him to be the one teaching horseback riding today. Those girls must be so excited."
As expected, Li Wan, the woman, had just dismounted when she dropped the reins and ran towards Prince Rong.
She called out sweetly, "Big brother, you're the one teaching us today!"
Li Jingchen said expressionlessly, "Hmm, not bad."
Li Wan said proudly, "Don't you know who I am? I would never bring shame to the Rong Prince's Mansion."
Li Jingchen remained silent, so Li Wan had no choice but to stop. She kept an eye on the class next to her while glancing sideways at her classmates.
Sure enough, everyone was looking this way, their eyes full of envy.
Her posture became much more upright, which was because the man everyone admired was her cousin, and that was why those girls would fawn over her.
The women had all finished practicing, leaving only An Ran lazily lounging in the back, not intending to move.
The teacher glanced at her and asked, "Su Anran, would you like to give it a try?"
Anran said regretfully, "Master, I don't know how."
A burst of laughter erupted from the side, and the laughter even reached the man's side.
"What's all that laughter over there?"
"It seems the newcomer can't ride a horse." She glanced at Anzhi as she said this, hesitated for a moment, and then added, "Really? The Su family is so powerful and influential, yet the young lady can't ride or shoot?"
"Shh, keep your voice down, he'll hear you soon."
The man raised his voice even higher, "So what if we hear it? Are we not allowed to say the truth?"
Anzhi pretended not to hear, and soon it was his turn to shoot arrows.
Everyone turned their attention back to Su Anzhi. "Alright, it's Su Anzhi's turn. Let's see what he's really made of."
“How much can someone who’s always been outside really do? He only got into the Imperial Academy because of the Emperor’s favor. Otherwise, who would want him?”
As they were talking, Anzhi took three arrows, lowered his center of gravity, and shot them without hesitation. The three arrows flew towards the target one after another, and finally landed steadily in the center of the target.
The room fell silent; everyone stood frozen in place. Only after Anzhi lowered his bow and arrow and retreated to the back did the crowd come to their senses.
"He...is that amazing?"
"I remember the last time someone fired three arrows at once was Prince Rong, right?"
"You mean Su Anzhi is comparable to Prince Rong?"
"Then how come his sister can't do anything?"
"..."
There were many different opinions. Meanwhile, at the horse farm, the teacher began to teach new lessons. As for An Ran, who knew nothing, she originally thought that she didn't have to do anything and could just sit and wait for school to end.
But she never expected that the teacher would play such a huge joke on her again, "Su Anran, come here."
After Anran left, she was told that it was okay if she didn't know how, as there were plenty of people who could teach her.
"Master, I..."
"Alright, that's Master Rong. You should have him teach you how to ride a horse before you learned how."
An Ran looked at this Master Rong and, to be honest, she really regretted saying that she didn't know how.
Before she could finish refusing, the teacher left. An Ran felt an intense gaze behind her, as if he wanted to devour her, though she didn't know why.
She slowly walked towards Master Rong and respectfully greeted him, "Master Rong."
Unexpectedly, Master Rong gave her a cold look, then led his horse to the side. An Ran had no choice but to follow him despite her reluctance.
The girls behind him, their faces sour with displeasure, said, "Su Anran is really good at scheming. She actually said she wouldn't come so that Prince Rong could teach her alone."
Yan Miao glanced at her and sneered, "Do you think everyone is like you? Your thoughts are written all over your face, aren't you ashamed?"
The girl, her thoughts exposed, became enraged and said, "Yan Miao, don't think that just because your father is a judge, you can slander people at will."
