Shen Bei'an spoke in a voice that was neither too loud nor too soft, but Shen Juanqing and the other two could hear him.
Shen Juanqing's eyes narrowed; his uncle…
This is ignorant of the rules.
“Baby, you didn’t want to shoot that first arrow.” Gu Nanyan fed the last bite of ice cream to Shen Bei’an, then gently wiped his mouth with a handkerchief made of brocade, his voice low.
Shen Bei'an frowned, about to speak, when Doreen returned.
"It is an honor for the hunting grounds to have Young Master Ning shoot the first arrow."
As Gu Nanyan expected, the people at the hunting grounds agreed.
"Young Master Ning, please." Doreen gestured for him to enter.
Ning Zhang stood up and stretched lazily, his gaze inadvertently glancing at Shen Bei'an in Gu Nan'an's arms. "Let's go."
He was genuinely curious whether Lord Brown could truly accept these things.
I have no idea how we achieved that five-game winning streak yesterday.
The drums sound, the flags flutter.
"It's about to begin." Xie Yunyu gripped the handle tightly with one hand. No matter how many times she saw this thing, it was always disgusting.
I wonder if Uncle Shen is willing...
Shen Beian looked up and saw Ning Zhang standing on the high platform, reaching out to draw his bow, while the "prey" below scattered in all directions.
An arrow, like a white rainbow piercing the sun, swooped down from a great height, followed by a scream that pierced the air!
"Father!"
"Young Master He Ning's arrow is a sure kill!"
"Young Master He Ning's arrow is a sure kill!"
Congratulations resounded throughout the hunting grounds, completely drowning out the shouts, cries, and panicked fleeing sounds!
“That…that person…dead…dead…” Shen Bei’an grabbed Gu Nan’an’s robe tightly, his peach blossom eyes almost turning into wide eyes.
The man who was shot by Ning Zhang on the field was shot through the heart while running, and fell to the ground, bleeding from his seven orifices!
That arrow was poisoned!
Gu Nanyan grasped Shen Bei'an's hand in return, gently pressing his Jiaosun acupoint with one hand. "The arrow was coated with a deadly poison, and the crossbow was an even stronger version. No matter where it hits the body, the person struck will die."
"Ning Zhang's archery skills are superb; hitting a willow leaf from a hundred paces is no problem for him. He shot through that man's heart."
The Six Arts of a Gentleman were essential subjects for young men from noble families. In today's society, archery includes not only archery but also gun shooting.
The family heirs are even more skilled in this area.
Ning Zhang studied medicine and already had a thorough understanding of human anatomy; archery was also one of his interests.
Shen Beian realized that he had actually been thinking about it just now!
“Baby, it’s not your fault, you just didn’t know.” Gu Nanyan, as expected of the person who understands Shen Bei’an the most, instantly understood what Shen Bei’an was thinking.
With Ning Zhang firing the first arrow, the hunt officially began!
Ning Zhang slowly walked back with a gift box in his hand. "Thank you, Sixth Young Master Gu, for letting me get a bargain. If you don't mind, I'd like to give you this gift."
Ning Zhang lowered his head, suppressing the longing in his heart.
Everyone says that the two beauties of the capital are exceptionally handsome, especially the Fifth Master Yan Jue, one of the nine beauties of the capital.
Ning Zhang, however, felt that each member of the Gu family was exceptionally beautiful.
This sixth young master Gu has heterochromia, which has attracted a lot of attention.
If you were to pry it out…
Gu Nanyu didn't even look at Ning Zhang. "Young Master Ning can accept it himself. I don't deign to accept such a thing."
How could the heritage of Fuyun Island compare to that of a family like the Gu family, which has been passed down for hundreds of years?
The children of the Gu family are born with a wealth that many people could never obtain in their entire lives.
No matter how many rare and exotic things in the world are to the Gu family, they are just so-so.
Ning Zhang was humiliated twice today, but he couldn't afford to offend either of these two people.
The former is quite mysterious, while the latter, if it displeases Young Master Gu...
The Ning family could declare bankruptcy today, and they might be wiped out tonight.
The people in the Gu family are all a bunch of lunatics.
Ning Zhang sat back down in his original seat with a forced smile.
Ning Yao enjoyed watching the show from the sidelines.
Shen Bei'an's face was somewhat pale as she remained nestled in Gu Nan'an's arms. When she inadvertently glanced at the somewhat familiar gift box, her aversion intensified.
Meanwhile, the hunting was in full swing below.
"What's the point of just watching? Don't the five of you really plan to get involved and play yourselves?" Ning Zhang's irritating voice rang out again.
Master Shen: Enough is enough! There's no need to endure any longer!
Without even opening his eyes, he threw a porcelain cup at him.
Ning Zhang hadn't expected to be hit squarely on the forehead, instantly raising a bump. A few tender green tea leaves stuck to his hair, making him look particularly comical. "If you can't speak, then shut your mouth! If you don't want that tongue, then donate it to me! If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute."
"What kind of sense of existence are you looking for here with me?"
"Go find some attention! Change your clothes and go down to the hunting grounds. See how many eyes are on you!"
With an outlet for his frustration, Shen Xiaozuo let out a series of spurts.
Ning Zhang stood frozen in place, barely feeling any pain, as the scolding continued.
No one else spoke, and Ning Yao dared not utter a word.
"Ning Yao! Get this thing out of my sight right now! It's blocking my view!"
Gritting her teeth, Ning Yao hurriedly stood up, almost knocking over the teacup in her hand, "I will take...brother away now."
Just as Ning Zhang was about to speak, Ning Yao stuffed a piece of mung bean cake into his mouth to shut him up, and then dragged it down his throat.
"Drink some water to soothe your throat." Gu Nanyan offered a teacup, and Shen Beian drank a couple of sips before his throat felt better.
The shouting I just made wasn't quiet, and it definitely hurt my throat.
There were not only the seven of them, but also other guests around them.
