Tang Jingyu's eyes darkened slightly. "Today is not a poetry recitation competition, so you can rest assured to answer the poem. Even if your second line isn't the best, I don't think anyone here will laugh at you."
Everyone present fell silent, no one spoke, and their eyes flickered back and forth between Tang Jingyu and Bei Lin.
The atmosphere on the cruise ship became increasingly tense, frightening the dancers and courtesans accompanying the guests so much that they all shut their mouths and dared not utter a word.
Gu Hanyu was very troubled. He invited Tang Jingyu to a banquet out of courtesy and thought he would not show up. But he came and brought a woman with him.
It is not easy to offend both sides. If you offend one of them, the other party will inevitably be pushed into the camp of other princes, which is not what he wants to see.
Gu Hanyu spoke at the right time, "Miss Gu, how do you think I match this up?"
This was considered to give Tang Jingyu enough face and allow Gu Pianran to save face.
Gu Pianran smiled solemnly, "It's my honor."
Gu Hanyu gently fanned himself and pondered for a moment, "The monk beats the evening drum, and the birds return to their nests."
"good."
"Third Prince, this is a good match."
The people around them applauded and cheered, and the strong atmosphere of tension in the cruise ship was diluted by their cheers. This also relieved the oppressive atmosphere.
The poetry writing that followed became Gu Pianran's complete stage. The poems that came out of her mouth one after another opened the eyes of the young men present, and their eyes on her changed again and again.
Even the third prince Gu Hanyu admired Gu Pianran's talent and kept her in mind.
Gu Pianran specially composed a poem about the battlefield. It was so soul-stirring and majestic that even Beilin, who had always disliked her, couldn't help but look at her sideways.
Gu Pianran saw a flash of light in Beilin's eyes, and the smile at the corner of his lips became even brighter.
Before, he was an insignificant existence to Gu Pianran.
In less than an hour, all the young men present had their eyes on her. They were impressed by her talent, conversation and knowledge, and gradually began to look at her with admiration.
Tang Jingyu was very proud of the excellence of his beloved woman, and her excellence was recognized by others, but he felt uncomfortable in his heart, especially when he saw the way other men looked at Gu Pianran, which made him want to hide this little woman and appreciate her beauty alone.
In the evening, the cruise ship docked and the young masters went back one after another. From that day on, the reputation of the talented daughter of the Gu family spread. There were even rumors in the streets that she was about to become the Princess of Jin.
Of course, all this is a story for the future.
As soon as the Third Prince left, Beilin also left immediately. The other young masters, however, gathered around Tang Jingyu and Gu Pianran. Surrounded by people, Gu Pianran kept an eye on Beilin's movements. Seeing that he left without even a word, she felt a little disappointed.
Tang Jingyu was dealing with the people around him, but he was always keeping an eye on Gu Pianran out of the corner of his eye. When he saw this little slut set her eyes on Bei Lin again, a fire of evil surged in his heart.
Tang Jingyu declined other people's invitations and left with Gu Pianran.
As soon as they got back to the car, Tang Jingyu pressed her down, his eyes burning with fire, "Are you interested in Beilin?"
Gu Pianran looked at his jealous expression and chuckled, "What are you talking about?"
She liked Beilin, but she wouldn't be stupid enough to admit it in front of Tang Jingyu.
