Chapter 35
Zhou Xuanqing, who had also heard those words, narrowed his eyes slightly. Seeing Tang Midang running down, he stood up, opened his arms, hugged her and touched her head comfortingly.
"Wow, wow, wow~ How embarrassing..."
"It's okay. They have been practicing since childhood. If we compare medical skills, none of them can compare to yours." After Zhou Xuanqing said this, he glanced coldly at the two women on the stage who were mocking Tang Mitang.
The two women felt a chill all over their bodies, and happily won the first and second qualifying spots in the first group respectively.
Tang Mitang cried for a while, grabbed Zhou Xuanqing's handkerchief to wipe her face, and then she heard someone on the stage calling Tang Qing, and then she remembered that she had written her name to Zhou Xuanqing.
"Miss~ Let's go..."
"Did you write this for Tang Qing?" Zhou Xuanqing looked at her and reached out to press her slightly red eyes.
"Yeah. Never mind. I won't participate in this anymore." Tang Mitang pouted and said dejectedly. If she had known it would be so difficult, she would have participated in the medical skills competition!
"Don't you want the night pearl anymore?" Zhou Xuanqing said softly.
"...No." Tang Mitang shook her head hesitantly.
Zhou Xuanqing looked at her and smiled, "Well, okay, but I still have some things to deal with. I have to get back at my sister and can't let others insult her for nothing. Wait for me."
After Zhou Xuanqing finished speaking, he took the silk veil from Xuan Yi's hand, covered his face with it, and strode towards that side.
"I am Tang Qing. I was just trying to comfort my sister, so didn't you hear me?"
Tang Mitang turned her head blankly, her eyes following Zhou Xuanqing.
Ah~ How could it be so sad? She felt that her heart was touched by Zhou Xuanqing's words...
Help her find a place!
Without a second thought, Zhou Xuanqing picked up his brush and painted a landscape painting. He paired it with a poem: "Mighty and majestic spirits are hidden in thousands of volumes, and the majestic atmosphere is awe-inspiring." When blood boils, the vast ocean ripples. The mountain flowers begin to bloom, and the scene below is unprecedented.
Unlike the poems and paintings of ordinary women, she easily won the first place in the group and advanced.
Tang Mitang looked at him in admiration, her eyes turning into stars. When she heard that Zhou Xuanqing had advanced, she waved and smiled happily.
"Young lady is so amazing!" Chang Xi was delighted to see this. The emperor was so busy with government affairs every day that people forgot that she was a talented person when she was a child.
"That's not great! My sister is so awesome!" Tang Mitang said with a beaming expression and threw a coquettish glance at Zhou Xuanqing.
Zhou Xuanqing smiled faintly and stood casually in the middle. When he heard that the next game was chess, he drew a lot at random.
It says one, and the person who drew one happened to be the first one to humiliate Tang Mitang.
Zhou Xuanqing raised his eyebrows and looked at the large chessboard standing up, not intending to be polite.
Holding the white piece, he made each move with fierce force and resolved the issue in less than half a minute.
Zhou Xuanqing looked at the woman opposite her, whose face was red with anger, and sneered, "This young lady really opened my eyes. The threshold for the talent competition is too low. Any random person can take the stage, as if it's a joke."
The woman listened more and more familiarly, knowing that what she had just said was being repeated to her. She wanted to retort angrily but heard laughter from below.
"Hahaha~ It's obviously the same words, but my young lady sounds so nice when she says it? Isn't that right, Changxi?" Tang Mitang pinched her waist and stepped on the chair and laughed rudely.
"That's not so great! My young lady is the most beautiful woman in the world, much more amazing than those who pretend to be birds by inserting feathers!" Chang Xi said with a smile, but his voice was very loud.
"You! You guys..." The woman was so angry that she fainted on the stage and fell down with a red face.
Zhou Xuanqing quickly took two steps back. She didn't touch her!
The judge had no choice but to step forward and take the person away. He didn't expect that the woman in front of him was a dark horse and so outstanding!
The chess game on the other side of the stage took almost half an hour to resolve.
Zhou Xuanqing was sitting on the judge's chair, almost falling asleep in the sun. When she heard the questioner calling her, she stood up lazily.
In this guqin competition, two guqins are placed on both sides. The rules are simple: whoever's sound can outshine the other wins.
The woman sitting across from Zhou Xuanqing looked at the person in front of her, not daring to relax even a little. She had just said something to that person, and she didn't know if she would be said back.
She couldn't lose in order to avoid embarrassment! She had practiced the "High Mountain Flowing Water" technique for half a year for this competition, and she couldn't lose her reputation as a talented woman!
With a flick of her fingertips, the song "High Mountains and Flowing Water" came out and received rave reviews from the audience.
Zhou Xuan listened as he lazily raised his hands to play the piano at a very fast tempo, and the listeners' hearts ran to the surging river.
Although his fingertips were playing the strings quickly, his expression remained calm, even a little nonchalant.
The sound of the piano from the opposite side was completely carried away. The woman became more and more anxious as she played, with a frown on her face and a panicked expression.
"Zheng!" The strings broke.
The only sound left in the whole venue was Zhou Xuanqing's piano music.
"Although your playing is not satisfactory, you are better than the kids in the school. Practice more when you have nothing to do, and then come to the adults' competition." Zhou Xuanqing spoke lightly, expressionlessly, and gave an extra compliment.
"I am not as skilled as the other person, so I admit defeat!" This woman's psychological quality was obviously better than before. She responded readily and turned to leave the stage.
But her clenched fists betrayed her thoughts.
But what does it have to do with Zhou Xuanqing?
Zhou Xuanqing took the night pearl and went to find Tang Mitang.
"Take it." Zhou Xuanqing said, and threw the night pearl in his hand to Tang Mitang.
"Ah~ Miss, I love you!"
Tang Mitang said with a smile, took it and held it up to look at it, then held it with both hands, closed one eye, and looked inside through the gap between his hands with the other eye.
Zhou Xuan was stunned for a moment as he listened to her words, and unconsciously curled up the corners of his mouth.
After reading it, Tang Mitang happily stuffed the night pearl into her purse and held Zhou Xuanqing's sleeve tightly, never letting him go.
