Lord Yan, The Little Ancestor Has Fallen Off The Horse Again!-Chapter 365: She Competes
Chapter 365: Chapter 365: She Competes
I had already controlled those people and wanted to forcefully inquire who had instructed them, but unexpectedly, the Fencing Hall intervened and took them away.
They couldn’t investigate anymore even if they wanted to.
They really couldn’t swallow this insult.
"What’s wrong?" Feng Ye walked in and saw each of them with a dark face.
Xiao Dian’s face was extremely grim, "Jack’s hand is injured, this time not to mention first place, we can’t even secure second place."
"..." Feng Ye glanced towards Xiao Feng, who seemed indeed to be dreaming.
"Do you know who did it?" Xiao Chen looked at Jay wrapped in bandages, his brow slightly furrowed with a cold air enveloping him.
"Those people were taken away by someone from the Fencing Hall, so I guess we can’t find out now," Xiao Dian said grimly, the head of the Fencing Hall wasn’t one of their people, it might have been his arrangement.
Without his permission, outsiders couldn’t possibly have come in.
However, whoever benefits the most from this situation has the greatest motive, no need to guess who it is, but now is not the time to settle scores with them.
"I’m worried about how to handle the upcoming competitions, Jay is the strongest among all the contestants, and now that he’s injured, he definitely can’t participate," Xiao Dian was somewhat reluctant, but there was nothing he could do; with him injured, no one could match Daniel and Lisa Martin.
"There’s nothing that can be done about it," Feng Ye sighed, Daniel and Lisa were just too strong, even if Jay hadn’t been injured, he might not have been able to beat the two of them.
"I know, but this time it’s different," Xiao Dian was not particularly stubborn, but the first-place reward this time was a place in the Medical Organization.
This was related to at least five years of development for Tu Mi Garden.
Xiao Chen, who had been silent until then, sat on the sofa, exhaled a puff of smoke, his well-defined features gradually blurred, his eyes dark and profound, his thin lips moved slightly: "Let it be."
Yun Yue sat beside him, idly playing with her phone, "Maybe I can help."
They all looked at her in surprise.
"Miss Yun, do you want to do acupuncture?" Xiao Feng asked somewhat astonished.
Only Xiao Chen and Xiao Feng knew she might be referring to acupuncture.
Yun Yue looked at Jay’s hand, her brow raised slightly, "No, even acupuncture won’t heal his hand anytime soon."
The injury was to the bone, different from Huo Baoming’s situation last time.
"Then you are...?" Xiao Feng looked at her puzzledly.
Feng Ye and Xiao Dian were surprised in their hearts, she knew acupuncture?
Acupuncture is one of the most difficult aspects of traditional Chinese medicine, and the few old doctors they knew were all older than sixty years. Given her age, they were really hesitant to let her perform it.
Yun Yue raised her head and shoved her phone into her pocket, her lips curving up: "I can represent Tu Mi Garden in the competition."
"?!"
The lounge fell into an eerie silence; everyone looked at her in disbelief.
"Miss Yun, this is not the time for jokes," Xiao Dian frowned. It was such a critical moment, and she was joking – what did Master Chen see in her?
Feng Ye and Xiao Feng also thought she was joking; fencing required day and night training, Daniel and Lisa’s skills were in no way inferior to Olympic champions, she probably had never even held a sword.
Yun Yue turned her head, the man on the sofa was calm and composed, as if the competition was not important to him; he lightly flicked off the ash from his cigarette and stood up, his tall figure adding a significant amount of pressure to the room.
His profound and well-defined features were inscrutable, and for a moment, no one spoke.
"Then you participate."
The man’s voice came from above, her lips curled up, and she hummed softly.
"Master Chen?!" Xiao Dian incredulously questioned, the decision for such an important competition was too hasty.
It might as well let other participants take Jay’s place.
"Just like that, I’m going to change the entry name now," Xiao Chen said in an indifferent tone with a commanding strength, looking down, his voice gentle, "What’s the name?"
Xiao Dian: "..."
That was clearly favoritism.
"Yue Yun." Yun Yue’s bright, cold eyes carried a careless, sinister smile.
"Alright."
Only after Xiao Chen left did Feng Ye realize, sitting on the edge of the sofa, he poked her arm, his expression half-doubtful, "Do you really know how to fence?"
Yun Yue raised her eyebrows slightly, "Ah," she said in a light tone, "Took a hobby class in junior high, learned a bit."
Bang!
He slid off the sofa, hissed in pain, and muttered, "This is bad."
Xiao Feng looked at him sympathetically.
Yun Yue glanced at her with a grandpa’s sitting posture, legs crossed, lips pursed, silent.
Indeed, she had learned it during junior high.
Xiao Dian followed Xiao Chen to rewrite the entry forms since their side had an incident with a participant, allowing them one chance to change.
Xiao Chen personally filled out Yun Yue’s personal information before leaving, and by then the competition had already started.
The competition was based on drawing lots to advance, and upon seeing the draw’s outcome, Xiao Dian’s face turned as black as coal.
Tu Mi Garden was really in trouble now.
There were four participants in total, and with Jay injured, only three were left; their opponents were stronger than them, probably getting eliminated in the first round, lacking any top ten finishers would truly be disgraceful.
Back in the resting room, Xiao Dian immediately discussed techniques and their respective opponents’ fencing styles with the three of them.
As for Yun Yue, her opponent wasn’t very strong, but no one had any hopes for her, if Master Chen wanted her to play, then let her play.
"You’re number ten." Xiao Chen handed her the schedule and equipment, his eyes flickering slightly, "It doesn’t matter if you can’t win, just have fun."
Yun Yue raised her refined eyebrows nonchalantly, nodded, then went back to playing with her phone, head bowed.
Suddenly, a WeChat message popped up, from Wu Yi— he had already returned to the country and rarely chatted unless it was important.
So without thinking, she clicked in, only a sentence, after reading which her whole body suddenly shrouded in a layer of frost, her eyes squinting dangerously cold, whites gradually filling with blood veins.
Feeling the change in her aura, Xiao Chen looked down, she had put away her phone quickly, he only saw a WeChat nickname— "Debt Collector."
He frowned slightly, wondering if she owed someone money, and now they were coming to collect?
"I need to go to the restroom." Yun Yue stood up, her coldness piercing the sky.
Entering the restroom, she quickly typed a line and sent it over.
"Find out who’s behind this."
Wu Yi: "OK, I will assign more people to guard near the Lin Family."
There were too many people watching her, it wasn’t easy to find out who was behind this at the moment.
She squinted her dangerous-looking eyes, turned on the faucet, washed her face before heading out.
Xiao Chen waited outside the door, seeing her come out, her eyes bloodshot, her face still wet, her bangs dampened, her delicate face extremely cold.
A few drops of water slid down her slim, pale swan neck into her shirt; he discreetly withdrew his gaze, his lips dry, his voice hoarse, "Need any help?"
