Venomous Empress Reborn

Chapter 56 - Do You Dare to Kill Me?



Chapter 56: Do You Dare to Kill Me?

The huge Yanbei Hall was silent.

The girl stood straight. She was petite, but she seemed to contain infinite strength, stepping the entire world under her feet.

Cai Lin was speechless.

Shen Miao was right. He should be the one in the most danger if they shot at each other like this. Because Shen Miao didn’t know archery, if she missed by a little, the arrow might pierce his head. However, Cai Lin didn’t think too much. He thought that as long as he shot first, with Shen Miao’s personality, she would definitely be so scared that her legs would go weak and she would beg him for mercy.

As for what happened after that, Cai Lin did not even think about it. In his heart, Shen Miao would naturally be frightened out of her wits after he shot the arrow. How could she have the strength to shoot him? Moreover, she was a woman who had never even drawn a bow before. She might not even be able to draw a bow and make a fool of herself in front of everyone.

That was what Cai Lin thought, but he didn’t expect Shen Miao to be so collected. She looked at him quietly. That calmness that exceeded her age made Cai Lin angry. Shen Miao’s gaze was like she was looking at a child who was playing with her.

They were both at the age where they were the most impulsive. Without hesitation, Cai Lin said, “Why wouldn’t I dare? Let’s sign a death contract!”

“Sigh!” Lord Cai, who was in the men’s section, sighed anxiously. He wished he could rush up to the stage and beat up his idiotic son. Previously, he thought that Cai Lin just wanted to have some fun, but he did not expect him to choose Shen Miao. Lord Cai was not worried about his son’s safety, but he was afraid that Cai Lin would really embarrass Shen Miao or hurt her. He didn’t want to make enemies with Shen Xin yet.

Shen Yue said anxiously, “How can Fifth Sister sign a life and death contract? It’s just a test. Why did it end up like this?”

“That’s right. Why is Fifth Sister so insensible?” Ren Wanyun frowned. “She is being too hot-headed. What if something goes wrong?”

She did not mention that Cai Lin was the one who challenged Shen Miao. They all blamed Shen Miao for being too hot-headed. Chen Ruoqiu shook her head and sighed. “She’s too competitive sometimes, always wanting to win.”

They were “concerned” about Shen Miao and were “anxious” for her. Naturally, there were people in the male section who were interested in this competition.

Prince Yu stared at the girl in purple on the stage with interest, as if he was a wild beast watching its prey. It was disgusting.

“This Miss Shen is really brave but not smart.” Prince Zhou pointed out, “She actually signed a death contract. Doesn’t she know that if anything happens, Shen Xin won’t be able to help her?”

.....

“She probably just wants to protect the Shen family’s reputation.” Fu Xiuyi looked at Shen Miao on the stage and said, “After all, no one wants their family to be looked down upon.”

“Being angry won’t help.” Prince Jing shook his head. “She’s too hot-headed. No wonder they say she’s ignorant and stupid.”

Pei Lang picked up the tea on the table and took a sip. He also felt that Shen Miao’s actions were too rash. If Shen Miao really wanted to protect her family’s reputation, she should think of a way to withdraw from the competition. Although she might be criticized for the time being, it was better than making a fool of herself in public.

“Father, she will definitely win.” Su Minglang clenched his fists and expressed his stance to his father.

Mr. Su glanced at his youngest son. For some reason, he felt that Su Minglang paid special attention to Shen Miao. Since Su Minglang reminded the Su family to retreat from the imperial court last time, Mr. Su had been much more patient with his youngest son. Now that he didn’t want to rain on his youngest son’s parade, he said, “Right, she will definitely win.”
