Chapter 57 Yunniang

A clear and melodious sound suddenly rang out in the lobby.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a woman in white walking towards them with an indifferent expression.

The woman had exquisite features and an ethereal air; she was like a fairy who had just stepped out of a painting.

A faint pallor appeared on her small, palm-sized face.

But this did not diminish her beauty; on the contrary, it added an extra touch of extraordinary beauty to her.

Every move he made exuded composure.

"Beautiful, truly beautiful!" a man exclaimed involuntarily.

The woman next to the man immediately put her hands on her hips, grabbed his ear, and said angrily, "How beautiful, huh?"

This scene caused everyone to burst into laughter.

"Tch, who's afraid of women? What a loser."

A young man sitting astride a chair looked utterly disdainful.

After saying that, he reached out and slapped the woman next to him, saying, "You should all learn from me. If I say east, she would never dare to say west."

The woman lowered her head, silently pursed her lips, and dared not speak.

"Are you mute? Speak up!" Seeing her reaction, the man kicked her hard in the stomach again. "Tell me, is it yes or no?"

The woman looked startled and instinctively reached out to cover her abdomen. She could only manage to say with difficulty, "Yes."

Gu Changfeng grabbed the man's shoulder and pulled him closer to himself, glancing sideways at the woman in agony. "Your sister-in-law is pregnant. Aren't you afraid of kicking your child away?"

"What kind of sister-in-law is she?" Xiang Hongxuan sneered, glancing at the woman on the ground with utter disdain. "It's already a favor that she was allowed to come out and see the world. What more could she possibly want?"

Xiang Hongxuan picked up the wine cup in front of him, tilted his head back, and drank it all in one gulp.

Then, as if no one else was around, she said, "If she's gone, she's gone. If she doesn't want to have children, there are plenty of people eager to do it."

The woman on the ground was dressed in a blue robe, which was now covered with some dust.

She gritted her teeth, propped herself up with her right hand, and struggled to her feet.

A strange light flashed across his eyes, but quickly disappeared.

Xiang Hongxuan looked up at the woman in the room, his greed almost overflowing. "That one is barely worthy of my status as the eldest son of the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice."

Gu Changfeng clicked his tongue meaningfully and gestured with his chin toward Qi Ran.

Qi Ran narrowed his eyes, and when he saw the figure in front of him, he suddenly stood up, muttering softly, "Meng Youning?"

While everyone was admiring her, Meng Youning slowly walked to Qi Ran's side.

The woman in purple paused for a moment. "This game can only be played by a husband and wife. May I ask who you are, young lady?"

Meng Youning raised her eyebrows slightly, her expression calm. "That's me."

As soon as he finished speaking, a commotion erupted around him.

Such a beautiful woman, and she already has a husband.

Qi Ran finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The next moment, he looked at Meng Youning with some suspicion, "I've already lost two games, are you sure you can do it?"

Meng Youning looked down at him, "If Your Highness doesn't believe me, you can continue by yourself."

He made a gesture, lifting his foot and taking a step back.

Qi Ran remained silent, his heart pounding at the thought of being unilaterally thrashed.

When his gaze fell on Meng Youning's amber eyes, something in his heart seemed to be suddenly struck.

Qi Ran gritted her teeth, stood up instantly, and consciously stood aside.

The woman in purple smiled slightly. "Guests are welcome, please come first."

Meng Youning sat up straight, fully focused. "No need, you go first."

The woman in purple raised her eyebrows slightly, placed her hands on the two bamboo tubes in front of her, and quickly placed the pebbles next to her into the bamboo tubes.

Her gaze was fixed on Meng Youning, without even glancing at her hands, which moved rapidly.

For a moment, the only sound at the scene was the clatter of stones.

The woman in purple always wore a smile, her eyes filled with determination.

The movement was so fast that only a blur could be seen.

"Everyone knows that Zuiyunniang is an expert in this field. This person actually dares to play with her. He really doesn't know his own limitations."

"Keep your voice down, didn't you hear who they are?"

“Once the game starts on the table, there’s no stopping it. Besides, at this point, it has little to do with status.”

"Yes, yes, look how young this girl is, she'll have nowhere to cry if she loses."

Amidst the crowd, intermittent whispers of speculation could be heard.

Most people thought Yunniang was destined to win.

After all, they had never heard of anyone who could successfully defeat Yunniang while drunk today.

Even Qi Ran, who was standing to the side, was skeptical.

Suddenly, Yunniang paused in her movements and slowed down.

Withdrawing her hands, Yunniang leaned back, her expression unrestrained. "I admire the Crown Princess's courage, but it's a pity you let me go first."

As she finished speaking, her smile grew even brighter, as if she were the victor of this game.

Yunniang pointed to the bamboo tube in front of her and said, "Please."

Meng Youning's eyelashes trembled slightly, and the next moment, her red lips parted slightly, "Six in the left hand and four in the right hand."

Yunniang leaned forward slightly. "Are you sure you don't want to reconsider?"

Meng Youning shook her head slightly, her voice cool and clear, "No need, open it."

Yunniang sighed softly, realizing that youthful impetuosity was indeed a factor.

Reaching out and removing the bamboo tube from her left, Yunniang froze, her pupils suddenly contracting.

how come?

"Continue." Meng Youning's expression remained calm and indifferent.

"Can anyone tell me what's going on? Why does it feel like Yunniang is being suppressed?"

"Don't worry, this is probably Yunniang's scheme. That young lady is probably just pretending to be calm on the surface, but she must be terrified inside."

Qi Ran turned and glared fiercely at the person who had spoken.

The scene fell silent instantly.

Everyone held their breath and watched Yunniang's movements intently.

Yunniang pursed her lips slightly, slowly placed her right hand on the bamboo tube in front of her, and then removed it in one go.

silence.

An inexplicable atmosphere suddenly filled the air.

Under the bamboo tube in front of Yunniang, four pebbles lay quietly.

Six in the left hand.

Four on the right hand.

Not a single one is missing.

"We won!" Qi Ran's eyes widened instantly. He grabbed Meng You Ning's shoulders and shook her vigorously, his joy undisguised. "We really won!"

Meng Youning felt uncomfortable from being shaken, so she quickly reached out and pulled Qi Ran's hands away.
