Chapter 145: It Hurts to Be Slapped in the Face



She imitated what Song had taught her and repeated it completely.

After hearing this, the Queen Mother smiled approvingly.

"You dance well. As long as you work harder, you will definitely surpass my level."

She waved to Chu Ranxin, motioning her to come over to her.

Then he took off a jade bracelet from his wrist and put it on Chu Ranxin's wrist.

This jade bracelet is all white and looks as white as snow. You can tell at a glance that it is worth a lot of money.

"I heard that you are going to marry Wen Chenxuan, and I don't have anything to give you. This bracelet is something I have kept close to my body, so I am giving it to you as a reward and to wish you happiness on your upcoming marriage."

Chu Ranxin was deeply moved by these words.

Wen Chenxuan was not idle either. He walked over and bowed respectfully to the empress dowager, and the two of them kowtowed together to express their gratitude.

Because the Queen Mother was in high spirits, Chu Ranxin specially performed an extra dance, which once again amazed the audience and showed off her face.

When the Queen Mother boasted again, Chu Ranxin couldn't help but look at Chu Weiyue who was eating melon seeds and drinking tea.

Chu Weiyue was enjoying her meal when she suddenly noticed some unfriendly looks and frowned in frustration.

She was fine, who had she offended?

This damn Chu Ranxin must be up to some bad idea again!

Just as he guessed, Chu Ranxin sighed with emotion.

"Empress Dowager, if we talk about dancing, it's my sister. I can't compare to her at all. I learned it from her!"

She just praised first and then criticized. She wanted to see if Chu Weiyue could dance as beautifully as her.

Anyway, she has already said it. As for whether she can jump later, that is Chu Weiyue’s business.

Although it wouldn't cause any serious danger if the dance wasn't done well, it would definitely displease the Queen Mother.

Chu Ranxin has many younger sisters, and they all have similar interests.

Upon hearing this, I began to agree without hesitation.

"That's right. Sister Chu Weiyue's dancing is truly stunning, and she is extremely talented. We can't even compare to one tenth of her. Your Majesty, why don't you just appreciate her dancing? It will definitely surprise you."

One of the little sisters was named Bai, and everyone called her Miss Bai, and she followed suit with a clicking sound.

"Empress Dowager, Sister Chu Weiyue is not only a good dancer, but I heard she is also good at playing the piano and painting. She is multi-talented, so I'm sure she has made a lot of preparations today."

The Queen Mother had indeed heard of Chu Weiyue's name, and although they had not had much interaction, she became interested for a moment.

Chu Ranxin's performance was stunning enough, so she wanted to see how much more shocking Chu Weiyue could perform.

"In that case, Chu Weiyue, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and show me the program you prepared. I want to see if there are any more amazing programs."

There was nothing in the Empress Dowager's eyes except anticipation, and all her interest was aroused.

This put Chu Weiyue in a difficult position!

But he didn't take it to heart at all. Instead, he rolled his eyes in dissatisfaction and snorted.

"Ms. Bai, you should know that today is Mid-Autumn Festival. I only prepared Mid-Autumn Festival gifts and no other talents."

Originally, she was just testing him. If Chu Weiyue had prepared some talent, that would be great. But if not, she could take this opportunity to humiliate him severely.

"The sun is rising from the west! Sister, why don't you prepare a show? Do you look down on the Emperor and the Queen Mother?"

"Stop talking nonsense here. I can't show my respect to the Queen Mother and the Emperor enough."

"If that's the case, then you don't deserve the reputation you have. People outside say that you are multi-talented. Just now a group of sisters were praising you, but now you haven't prepared anything.

If you have enough knowledge, you would just go ahead and do it, but you are being so hesitant, which shows that there is no truth in the rumors. "

Chu Weiyue clenched his fists, the veins between his brows were faintly visible, and he looked like he was about to explode.

What she hated most was being questioned, but this time she didn't get angry. Instead, she showed a smug smile.

"I really don't have that many talents, so why don't you come up with one first? You are the daughter of a general after all. You are a general's mansion, so you can't afford to learn music, chess, calligraphy, painting, dancing, singing, etc., right?"

All the young ladies from aristocratic families are multi-talented. In addition to studying and doing homework every day, they also learn various skills.

Miss Bai's face turned as dark as liver.

Although she can sing and dance, Chu Ranxin's performance just now has already amazed everyone. If she is allowed to perform, it would be better to kill her with a knife, otherwise people will only accuse her of imitating others without any merit.

Chu Ranxin snorted disdainfully beside him.

She had not heard about the gift Chu Weiyue prepared. Chu Weiyue had been having fun with Wen Jingchi all the time, and they wanted to spend the whole day together. It was said that he would not come back at night, so how could he have time to prepare gifts?

She wanted to see what tricks this woman could come up with.

"Sister, what did you prepare? Why don't you take it out and let us all open our eyes."

She pretended to be innocent and ran to Chu Weiyue, gently holding her arm and shaking her.

She dressed up to be the most eye-catching today and stood next to Chu Weiyue on purpose, trying to overshadow her and draw everyone's attention to herself.

Chu Weiyue just looked at her with a cold look, said nothing, and took out the painting he had prepared.

"Your Highness, this is a painting I drew myself. Although it cannot be called a masterpiece handed down from generation to generation, it was drawn with my heart and I saw it with my own eyes."

When seeing this painting, Chu Ranxin couldn't help but burst into laughter, covering his mouth. Even Miss Bai next to him burst out laughing.

The two looked at Chu Weiyue with contempt, and even the other young ladies from aristocratic families joined in and began to mock her.

"What kind of painting is this? It's just a picture of farmers working on the field. It's really stupid."

"It turns out that the rumors are really false. I thought Chu Weiyue had some amazing talent, but it turns out that he is just an ordinary person."

This painting skill is really not that high. You can tell at a glance that she has only been learning it for a short time. My paintings are better than hers. How dare you show off your skills to others?"

These people mocked one after another, and the Queen Mother's face looked a little ugly.

The emperor frowned and said nothing. His eyes were amusement-filled and seemed to be a little unsatisfied.

Chu Weiyue was neither humble nor arrogant, and did not care at all. Instead, she glanced at Chu Ranxin with an extremely contemptuous look.

This woman is so ignorant that she even dares to laugh at her. She will be slapped in the face in a minute.

The more happily they laugh now, the more painful it will be when they get slapped in the face later.
