No matter what, they couldn't let a girl beat them. That was what they thought. Thus, they could only brace themselves and take the pen and paper from the host. They began to write down their own answers, even though they weren't too sure that their answers were correct.
"I'm done."
A smile appeared on Gu Qianqian's delicate cheeks and she handed the written answer to the host.
The gentle young master and the elegant young master didn't want to waste too much time to avoid being seen as a joke by the two women and the audience. They quickly handed the paper in their hands to the host and said, "We're done too."
The host looked at them with a smile and said, "Good, good, good, I'll take a look."
It was rare for so many people to participate in this event, so he was sincerely happy.
He spread out the paper in his hand and began to report the answer, "These two young masters wrote Miao and Shan respectively. I'm sorry, you're both wrong."
"What? How is this possible? How can we be wrong? Did you make a mistake? "
The two young masters were in disbelief. They stared at the host with dissatisfaction and even anger in their eyes.
They were both rich children of Fang City. They had read books and poems since they were young and knew how to read books and poems. It was fine if they guessed wrong the first time, but how could they guess wrong the second time? Then where would they put their face? There were so many people here watching. Especially when they thought of losing to Xiao Yang, a poor boy from another place, they felt very uncomfortable, depressed, and angry.
Their breathing became heavier and their eyes turned cold as they glared fiercely at Xiao Yang. They did not believe that Xiao Yang, who came from a remote mountain, would be able to guess it even if the two of them, who were well-read scholars, were unable to guess it correctly.
The host smiled and shook his head, as if he was helpless and dissatisfied with the attitude of the two young masters. However, he didn't say anything and continued to spread out the paper in his hand.
The paper had been folded four or five times, and each time, it was folded in half.
The old host was not in a hurry. He opened it slowly and had the same expectation in his heart. Many people had been defeated by his riddles before. He wanted to see what ability Xiao Yang had and whether he could guess it correctly again.
"Ah!"
After taking a look, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he even exclaimed in surprise.
As luck would have it, Xiao Yang had guessed it right.
Everyone's eyes couldn't help but fall on the host. They also wanted to know the answer to this riddle, especially the gentle young master and the elegant young master. They were very unwilling to give up.
The host revealed a gratified smile and slowly said, "Haha, this little brother is very good. He guessed correctly. It's the Dang character."
When everyone heard the answer, they thought about it carefully. Wasn't it the same as the word 'do'?
They all showed expressions of sudden enlightenment and praised Xiao Yang from the bottom of their hearts.
"This young man must be well-read. Otherwise, how could he guess it every time?"
"It must be a scholar from god knows where. Even these two young masters are inferior to him."
"No wonder, no wonder these two young ladies are willing to get close to him."
The discussions of the crowd fell into the ears of Xiao Yang, the gentle young master, the elegant young master and the rest. Xiao Yang only smiled and did not take it to heart. After all, he was a powerful cultivator at the fifth level of the Martial Ancestor Realm. There was no need for him to show off in front of a group of ordinary people.
Lan Jiaoye and Gu Qianqian, on the other hand, had proud faces. They looked at Xiao Yang with infatuation. Their faces were full of worship. Their hands held Xiao Yang's hand. They wanted to be with Xiao Yang forever.
These voices and the intimate attitude of these two women towards Xiao Yang fell into the eyes of the gentle young master and the elegant young master. How could these two arrogant young masters tolerate this?
They couldn't lose their temper in front of so many people. They could only restrain their anger and coldly said, "This friend is very knowledgeable. How about we go next door and compete in calligraphy? Guessing riddles is just entertainment. Calligraphy is the basic skill of us Confucians. "
The two of them once again challenged Xiao Yang.
They were not willing to lose, especially to a nameless poor boy. If they couldn't get back their face, then they would become a small part of Fang Cheng.
Xiao Yang didn't even look at them. He curled his lips, shrugged, and ignored them.
Gu Qianqian also ignored them. She reached out her delicate hand and said to the host, "Where is my flower? Give it to me. I guessed it correctly. "
Although Xiao Yang gave the answer, Xiao Yang was only behind the scenes. The one who directly gave the answer was Gu Qianqian. Therefore, it was understandable for her to ask for the flower.
The host naturally saw that the three of them were in the same group. He didn't make things difficult for them. He kindly smiled and took a rose from the potted plant behind him and gave it to Gu Qianqian.
Gu Qianqian took the rose. Her mood was like a blooming firework. It was very beautiful and very happy.
"Thank you."
After she thanked him, she couldn't help but put her nose close to the flower. She sniffed the flower and was intoxicated.
After a while, she glared at the two young masters. She said coldly, "If you agree to bet, you must be willing to lose. Quickly give me the gold you lost."
The gentle young master and the elegant young master were even angrier. Their faces were ashen.
They were noble and superior. They had always been the ones bullying others. When did it become others' turn to bully them?
They snorted. They didn't dare to offend the public in front of everyone. They also cared about their reputation. They immediately took the gold from the servant and handed it to Gu Qianqian.
Gu Qianqian took it with a smile. The three of them were ready to leave.
However, the gentle young master was not satisfied. He snorted and said, "You want to leave so easily after winning our money?"
The gold they lost was their pocket money for half a year. Once the family knew, they would definitely be scolded.
Of course, they wanted to have a chance to win it back.
"Oh, what else do you want? You don't want to admit it? "
Lan Jiaoye stood still and glanced at them with dissatisfaction. Her beautiful eyes were full of contempt. She was now a Martial Great Master. She could easily kill these two young masters with a raise of her hand. There was nothing to be afraid of.
"Let's compete in calligraphy. We'll double the bet. How about it?"
The elegant young master stiffened his neck and shouted. He wanted to get his money back. He also wanted to win against Xiao Yang and regain his lost face.
Lan Jiaoye tilted her head and thought for a while. She snorted and said, "What else do you want to bet with us?"
The two Young Masters immediately felt awkward.
