Chapter 153 You Say
When Chen Heng heard the words "Eighth Young Master", she turned around and saw a young man about the same age as Xie Jian, Wu Jin and the other two striding towards her with a bright smile. Although he was handsome, he was not very eye-catching next to Xie Jian, Meng Xuanlang, but his aura of nobility made it clear that he was of extraordinary background, and people did not dare to be disrespectful to him.
The appearance of the Eighth Prince was surprising, but Shen Heng's attention was on the young man beside him, who turned out to be Liu Xinyue, the legitimate daughter of Prince Qing's Mansion, disguised as a man.
"No need to be so formal. We've agreed that outside, we're just friends." The eighth prince, Liu Yang, had always enjoyed playing due to his uncle, Prince Qing, so he wasn't bound by these rules. "You can just call this person next to me Master Xin."
It was not the first time that Liu Xinyue had seen these people. Meng Xuanlang had played with them in the palace when they were young. Her father had drunk dozens of glasses of wine from the Wu family, but this was the first time she had seen the young man on the left. The young man's outstanding appearance made her look at him twice, but she didn't expect that the young man was also looking at her.
Their eyes met, and both of them looked away.
Since then, this scene has not escaped Shen Heng's eyes. Oh, there is a feeling of chemical reaction. The more she looks at it, the more she feels that Liu Xinyue is probably Xie Jian's destined fate.
Is she going to retreat behind the scenes?
"We got it, we got it." The servant of the Meng family and the Eighth Prince all ran over.
"My son is ranked 29th in the second class, and Mr. Xie is ranked 21st in the second class." The servant of the Meng family said excitedly.
"Fifty-third place in the second class of the Eighth Young Master."
Xia choked and covered her mouth with one hand, "My brother-in-law has passed the imperial examination, he has passed the imperial examination."
Even though Chen Heng knew Xie Jian would definitely win, she was still so happy that she couldn't stop smiling.
"Congratulations to Ajian, Xuanlang, and the Eighth Young Master. I'll treat you tonight, and we won't go home until we're drunk." Wu Jin was also happy for his two good friends, and he must celebrate properly at noon.
Seeing the proud look on Bage's face, Liu Xinyue burst out laughing: "Cousin, my father said that you would never pass the imperial examination, and now he has been proven wrong."
"Xuan Lang and I have studied hard for ten years to achieve such success. The Eighth Prince was able to get into the second place in just one month. He is extremely intelligent and a genius among all the other princes." Xie Jian said with a smile.
What kind of brilliant insight is that? Meng Xuanlang muttered to himself. It was obviously Ah Jian who guessed the correct answer, but it took a lot of their hard work. Since this kind of thing could not be exposed, he just said, "Congratulations, Eighth Prince."
Wu Jin looked at the Eighth Prince with admiration: "The Eighth Prince only studied hard for one month and was able to pass the imperial examination. He is so smart, which makes people envy him." Why isn't he that smart?
Xie Jian, Meng Xuanlang: "..."
Xie Jian saw from the corner of his eye that Aheng and his elder sister-in-law were also looking at the Eighth Prince with admiration.
Being praised and looked at, the Eighth Prince couldn't hide the smile on his face. If there weren't others around, he would have danced with joy and pretended to be unconcerned. "What's the big deal? Remember, as long as you work hard, you will always gain something."
Liu Xinyue's smile never stopped. She was just pretending. Eighth Prince had always loved playing with his parents. He could learn anything through play, but studying was no match for him. He'd get sleepy the moment he started. Looking at how happy he was, he'd probably be so happy for a month.
Wu Jin invited everyone to have dinner at his restaurant.
Because Xia didn't like such a lively atmosphere and wasn't used to it, she went home directly.
The group went directly to Binhonglou, the Wujia Restaurant.
Binhonglou is located at the end of Dingguo Street. Although it is not the largest restaurant, its wine is the most famous in the imperial capital. However, ever since the owner of Guangjulou was shut down, Binhonglou is showing signs of becoming the largest restaurant.
There was no one else around, so Xie Jian and the others politely bowed to the Eighth Prince and the daughter of Prince Qing's mansion.
