Just as many people were wondering what would happen next, Murong Qiqi smiled at Dongfang Lan and bowed. "Thank you, Empress Dowager, for giving me this opportunity. Bei Zhou will definitely be the champion of this hegemony tournament and I will definitely become an outstanding Mistress! "
Murong Qiqi's forbearance disappeared and was replaced by unparalleled confidence. Everyone was stunned. The stalemate was also resolved with her smile.
Seeing Murong Qiqi change from a humble "I" to a confident "I", Dongfang Lan knew that the sunshine princess had agreed to this bet.
Hmph! She was rather bold. Not only did she agree, she even dared to look her in the eye! Feng Cang had actually fallen out with his maternal grandmother in front of all the officials for Murong Tai's daughter. This woman was truly scheming! Now that she was acting so arrogantly, could this be the real her? Regardless of whether she could really do what she said, the fact that she dared to agree to the bet showed that her courage and insight were not bad.
Dongfang Lan had not wanted to make things difficult for Feng Cang. Now that Murong Qiqi had agreed to the bet, it gave her a way out.
"Then I will await the good news from the sunshine princess." Murong Qiqi's spirited eyes dazed Dongfang Lan. Who did those eyes belong to? Why did they look so familiar? Dongfang Lan thought for a long time but could not recall anyone with such beautiful eyes.
After a while, Dongfang Lan finally recovered. Perhaps it was because of Murong Qiqi's decisiveness at the end, or perhaps it was because of her familiar eyes, but Dongfang Lan did not make things difficult for Murong Qiqi. "I am tired. I will go back first. You all can continue …"
After Dongfang Lan left, the atmosphere became joyous and peaceful again. The song and dance resumed, and the banquet was set up. It was as if nothing had happened.
Murong Qiqi sat there, enjoying the song and dance while tasting the delicacies. She looked as if nothing had happened. Feng Cang admired her calmness. However, the Four Nation Youth Competition was no small matter. She had agreed to it in front of all the officials. If Beizhou did not win, wouldn't he lose her? What should he do?
"Your Highness, is the song and dance not nice? Or are these delicacies not to your liking? "Murong Qiqi waved her hand in front of Feng Cang's eyes." You've been daydreaming for a while now. "
Murong Qiqi's concern made Feng Cang smile. He immediately held Murong Qiqi's hand and asked, "Qingqing, do you know what the Four Nation Youth Competition is?"
"I don't know." Murong Qiqi shook her head. Her reply almost caused Feng Cang to bite his tongue. His eyes couldn't help but widen as he stared at Murong Qiqi. Seeing that she did not seem to be faking it, Feng Cang finally understood that Murong Qiqi really did not know anything. How could a girl in the boudoir, who did not have any fighting spirit, understand these things!
"Qingqing, you agreed to grandmother's terms without knowing anything. If Beizhou loses, won't we be separated …"
This silly woman, should it be said that she was a newborn calf that was not afraid of the tiger, or something else!
If he had insisted on arguing for what was right, the Empress Dowager would not have quarreled with him in front of everyone and would have agreed. However, he was stopped by Murong Qiqi and listened to her, not arguing with the Empress Dowager. Feng Cang knew that Murong Qiqi was doing this for his sake. She wanted to prevent him from being scolded for being unfilial. Her concern for him made Feng Cang realize how considerate Murong Qiqi was.
Clearly, she was the one who suffered the most grievances, yet she shouldered everything herself. This little girl! She really had the spirit to not admit defeat. Even he could not help but admire her!
"Don't I still have Your Highness? With Your Highness around, I am not afraid! "
Murong Qiqi's reply was half-true and half-false. However, when Feng Cang heard it, he felt extremely moved. So she was like this because of him! Immediately, Feng Cang felt a sense of pride as a man. She trusted him so much, treating him like a big tree. How could he let her suffer any grievances?
Feng Cang hooked his hand and pulled Murong Qiqi into his embrace. He rubbed his chin against her black hair, feeling sweet in his heart. It turned out that it felt so good to be relied on! If that was the case, he was willing to hold up the sky for her and let her rely on him for the rest of her life.
"Qingqing, I am so happy to hear that. Don't worry, Qingqing. I will definitely bring back the first place for you! You are definitely going to be the Mistress of the Feng family! "
Feng Cang's doting words rang in Murong Qiqi's ears.
This man was so sure. His words were like an oath, making one's heart feel warm. When Dongfang Lan made things difficult for her in front of everyone, she replied that way because she wanted to fight for herself. She did not really care about the position of Duchess of Southern Lin. Now that this man had made a solemn promise to her, a certain hard place in Murong Qiqi's heart began to soften.
Looking at Feng Cang's beautiful eyes that were filled with love, Murong Qiqi was a little dazed. How should she respond to his dedication? She never understood these things and had never tried it. Now that she was facing this gentle and passionate man, she was actually at a loss of what to do …
"Qingqing, what are you thinking about?" Feng Cang saw that Murong Qiqi was in a daze. He couldn't help but pinch her pretty nose and put on an aggrieved expression. "Am I not attracted to you at all? Qingqing is actually daydreaming in front of me. This is such a blow to my confidence! Could it be that there is someone else in Qingqing's heart? So no matter how good I am, I can't arouse your interest? "
"No, there is no one in my heart." Feng Cang's beautiful face, coupled with his aggrieved expression and the pitiful tone in his seductive voice, caused Murong Qiqi's brain to temporarily short-circuit. Why could a man look so devastatingly beautiful? What a monster!
Murong Qiqi's answer made Feng Cang happy. Her unguarded gaze told Feng Cang that this was Murong Qiqi's true feelings.
"Since there is no one in Qingqing's heart, can I stay here? Just let me stay here for the rest of my life! "
Feng Cang's words were bewitching, as if he had used magic. Murong Qiqi also nodded as if she was bewitched. "Okay!"
After saying 'okay', Murong Qiqi suddenly came to her senses. What did he just ask? What did she say? She actually said 'okay'? She actually lost her soul in front of him …
Feng Cang would never allow Murong Qiqi to go back on her words. He intertwined his fingers with Murong Qiqi's, his gaze resolute.
