Nangong Yu rolled his eyes at him, put away his bow and arrow, and strode out of the arena.
Xuanyuan Qi walked out slowly with an expression of enjoying the show, not at all ashamed of having scored zero points.
Hearing this, Gao Zhenzhen frowned and subconsciously looked at the scoreboard, only to find that the first place was Ling Xiang!
The one who shot into the air just now was not Ling Xiang, but the prince?
Gao Zhenzhen couldn't believe it. She walked forward and said sourly, "Your Highness, look at you. You actually stopped for so long. Even if you wanted to give in to Miss Ling, you couldn't be so obvious..."
Not to mention the surprise of others, even Nangong Yu himself was caught off guard by the result of the last arrow.
He really didn't mean to let Ling Xiang.
He, failed...
Nangong Yu exuded a cold aura that kept people at a distance. He didn't even try to comfort the spoiled Gao Zhenzhen the first time as he did in the past. He also didn't say hello to the three teachers and just left.
"Mr. Xiang, Mr. Liu." Ling Xiang greeted the two gentlemen one by one. Seeing the spiritual master Zun Jiarong not far away, he greeted him loudly, "Spiritual Master Jiarong."
“Clap, clap, clap!” Xuanyuan Qi applauded before Nangong Yu even walked away. “Miss Ling, you are the first among the younger generation to surpass the King of Qin in archery!”
Ling Xiang was so engrossed that she didn't notice Nangong Yu stopped mid-score. She looked at the scoreboard in surprise, "How is that possible?"
"There are only a few people who can shoot seven arrows in a row. Miss Ling's archery skills are considered to be the best in the world." Liu Yongzhi praised.
"The most rare thing is that she can be so accurate on horseback. Miss Ling's riding skills are extraordinary." Xiang Lesheng praised immediately.
Ling Xiang said modestly, "I would like to thank you two gentlemen for your guidance."
"You have talent."
The two gentlemen kept praising her, which made Gao Zhenzhen very unhappy. She would never let Ling Xiang be in the limelight in the Prince Qin's Mansion!
Gao Zhenzhen forced a smile: "Miss Ling is indeed amazing. She can even make the prince deliberately give in to you. How can anyone else have such ability as you?"
Ling Xiang smiled slightly and deliberately irritated Gao Zhenzhen: "Miss Gao, you are too kind. I am the prince's fiancée. If the prince doesn't give in to me, will he give in to outsiders?"
Gao Zhenzhen's fake smile froze on her face, and she held her chest: "I'm not feeling well. Excuse me."
Ling Xiang said with concern: "I know a little bit about medicine, Miss Gao, I will take you back, maybe I can help you with your heart disease."
Gao Zhenzhen was just worried about finding a reason to convince the prince to take Ling Xiang's blood, but Ling Xiang offered herself to her, and she couldn't ask for more: "Then I'll trouble you, Miss Ling."
Arriving at Gao Zhenzhen's room, Ping'er closed the door and walked out, locking Mu Heng, who had followed Ling Xiang all the way, outside.
Only Gao Zhenzhen and Ling Xiang were left in the room.
Gao Zhenzhen was planning to frame Ling Xiang for attacking her, so she wanted to create some conflicts first. She said unhappily, "Miss Ling, what do you mean today? Didn't you say you wouldn't marry the prince? Could it be that you were lying to me?"
"This requires a question, Miss Gao, what did you do?" Ling Xiang took Gao Zhenzhen's hand and gently pressed on her pulse.
Gao Zhenzhen subconsciously struggled to break free.
But Ling Xiang didn't give her a chance to break free: "Miss Gao, don't move around. Otherwise, if I lose control and accidentally press any of your acupuncture points, I won't be responsible if anything goes wrong."
Gao Zhenzhen was annoyed: "Ms. Ling, how have I wronged you?"
"I should be the one asking you this, Miss Gao. I have no intention of competing with you, so why do you want to kill me?" Ling Xiang grabbed Gao Zhenzhen's wrist and pulled her over.
"I'm not going to argue with you anymore, why do you insist on taking my blood?"
It turned out that the prince had not made up his mind, but had already gone to Ling Xiang to ask for blood! Gao Zhenzhen was very happy, but pretended to be ignorant: "Miss Ling, what are you talking about? I don't understand..."
"You don't understand?" Ling Xiang pressed Gao Zhenzhen onto the chair, gently stroking her cheek with her fingers. "What a beautiful face! It's a pity that the heart inside is so ugly..."
Gao Zhenzhen got goosebumps all over her body: "Ling Xiang, are you crazy? What are you going to do?"
"Am I crazy? Even if I am really crazy, it was you and Nangong Yu who drove me crazy." Ling Xiang's eyes suddenly became sharp. He took out a dagger and slowly cut a long wound on his wrist, forcing Gao Zhenzhen to drink the blood that flowed out.
"Don't you want to drink human blood to cure your illness? Come on, drink more..."
"Ugh!" A foul smell instantly filled her mouth and nose. Gao Zhenzhen was horrified and turned her head hastily, shouting, "Help! Miss Ling is crazy!"
Gao Zhenzhen suppressed her nausea and thought rapidly in her mind: if the prince came and saw Ling Xiang bullying her like this, Ling Xiang would definitely not end up well!
Ling Xiang didn't even have to plan it herself, she killed herself!
Ling Xiang expressionlessly took out a piece of cloth to bandage herself, and did not stop Gao Zhenzhen, letting her scream. After all, she had already set up a restriction, so it would be useless for Gao Zhenzhen to scream at the top of her lungs: "Louder, otherwise your prince won't be able to hear you."
After a while, no one rushed in to save her. Gao Zhenzhen realized the seriousness of the situation and softened her tone: "Ms. Ling, look, we had a pleasant cooperation last time. If there is anything, we can discuss it."
"Wouldn't it have been right earlier?" Ling Xiang took out a handkerchief and patiently wiped the blood off Gao Zhenzhen's face. She curled her lips and said, "Miss Gao, does dog blood taste good?"
Gao Zhenzhen's eyes widened as she looked at Ling Xiang's wrist in disbelief: "You gave me dog blood to drink?"
Ling Xiang said as a matter of course:
"What else? I value my life very much. I can't really let you drink my blood, right?"
"Ugh!" Gao Zhenzhen started vomiting violently, wishing she could vomit out all the food she had eaten the night before.
Ling Xiang clapped her hands and sat down opposite her. After Gao Zhenzhen finished vomiting, she slowly took out a lotus jade pendant and played with it. "Do you recognize this jade, Miss Gao?"
When Gao Zhenzhen saw Ling Xiang's jade pendant, her face changed drastically.
Afraid that Ling Xiang would see something, she lowered her eyes and took out a handkerchief to wipe her mouth to cover it up, "This jade pendant is so beautiful..."
"There used to be a pair of these lotus jade pendants, but one was lost. Has Miss Gao ever seen them?"
"No, no..." Gao Zhenzhen denied repeatedly and stared at the jade pendant carefully, trying to see its full appearance.
Ling Xiang deliberately held the jade pendant in her hand, preventing her from seeing it clearly. "Miss Gao doesn't go out often, so it's normal that she hasn't seen it. But the prince is knowledgeable. I'll show him the jade pendant and ask him. He might know."
"No, no!" Gao Zhenzhen realized that she had overreacted and immediately tried to make amends.
"Your Highness is so busy, how could he have time to care about such a small matter? However, I can help you. First, give me the jade pendant, and I will ask someone to draw it and send more people to look for it."
Gao Zhenzhen was very anxious and wanted to snatch the jade pendant directly - as long as the jade pendant was in her hands, no matter what Ling Xiang said, the prince would not believe it!
"Good idea!" Ling Xiang agreed. "I'll immediately find someone to take the jade pendant's portrait and post it everywhere. Maybe someone will actually find my jade pendant."
