His head was too small and the table blocked his line of sight, making it even more impossible for him to see Shen Miao clearly. Su Ming Feng shook his head. He did not know why this Younger Brother of his had a good impression of the Fifth Young Lady of the Shen family. If it was not because Su Ming Lang was too young, Su Ming Feng would have thought that this Younger Brother of his had other thoughts about Shen Miao.
But … He also turned his head to look at Shen Miao. With such a close distance encounter, how would Shen Miao face Prince Ding?
At the corner of the male side of the banquet, there was a green clad male. Compared to the other noble people who were dressed in brocade clothes, his dressing was extremely simple but this did not make him cut a sorry figure. On the contrary, because of his simple dressing, there was a kind of romantic and unrestrained attitude of an ancient scholar. At this moment, he was quietly looking at the purple clad young female who kept her head down and there was a faint fluctuation in his eyes.
This person was Pei Lang. Pei Lang was not qualified to participate in such an occasion but today there was a death in the family of the supervisor of Guang Wen Tang, thus the supervisor let Pei Lang represent Guang Wen Tang to participate. Even though Pei Lang was a teacher in Guang Wen Tang, he was considered as half a supervisor, thus he did not decline.
Who knew that when he arrived, he would see such a scene.
Prince Zhou and Prince Jing stood beside Fu Xiu Yi and heard Jiang Xiao Xuan's deliberately provocative words. Prince Zhou laughed and patted Fu Xiu Yi's shoulder before saying meaningfully, "Our Ninth Younger Brother is really amazing …"
Fu Xiu Yi's brows slightly wrinkled but there was a faint smile on his face, "Fourth Older Brother must be joking." Even though he said so, his eyes unconsciously drifted towards the young female in the seat.
"Ah." A light laugh escaped from the young female's lips and the surroundings suddenly quietened down.
This laugh did not have any emotions. To say that it was ridiculing, it was too gentle. To say that it was cheerful, it was very calm. It was like a cup of strong wine that had been settled for a long time. Five flavours were mixed together and a thousand complex flavours were in one's heart before it finally turned into a light laughter.
The males were still alright but the females were surprised. They had been immersed in the inner courtyard for so many years but they could not hear the meaning in Shen Miao's laughter. How old was she?
Shen Miao raised her head and her eyes did not stop. It was like the arrow that was shot at Cai Lin at the academy examinations as it shot towards the figure who was standing with his hands behind his back, Fu Xiu Yi.
Fu Xiu Yi was slightly startled.
There was no infatuation, love, worship, or surprise in the girl's eyes. There was only a bottomless calm. He was like an old man who had reincarnated for a hundred years, looking at him through the vicissitudes of time. There was no sorrow or joy in his eyes, but it made one feel uneasy.
That pair of clear eyes had an extremely beautiful shape. If they were curved, it would be so sweet that it would remind people of the taste of honey. But she only watched quietly. In Fu Xiu Yi's heart, there was a sudden surge of uneasiness. It was as if he was walking alone in the jungle, but in the depths of the grass, there was a huge beast that was staring at him. That feeling of uneasiness was getting stronger and stronger, and one did not know when the faint smile on his face had disappeared as he stared fixedly at Shen Miao.
"Heh." Shen Miao chuckled again and this time everyone could see it clearly. Her rosy lips slightly curved but the corners of her eyes did not move. It was clearly a sneer.
It was probably a cold sneer formed from a faint resentment towards the person he loved but couldn't get because his love had turned into hatred. Everyone thought like this but were surprised that Shen Miao dared to express her dissatisfaction so straightforwardly. Who would have the guts to sneer at a Prince in the Palace?
Fu Xiu Yi did not move.
In that sneer, he could clearly see a layer of faint murderous intention. Even though it was deliberately concealed, it was as if it could not be concealed at all. That kind of coldness that was determined to win actually caused his heart to shrink.
