The cousin is beautiful but ruthless.

Liang Ruoyan used all her skills to play the piece "Wild Geese Descending on the Sandbank".

After she finished playing, she looked up at Li Jun and the others.

Li Jun didn't speak because he wasn't listening.

Princess Yongning narrowed her eyes: "You played this piece too ornately, which made it lack some grandeur. But that grandeur is precisely where the charm of the piece lies. Miss Liang still needs to practice more."

Liang Ruoyan pursed her lips, and then she heard others say the same thing.

Seemingly sensing Liang Ruoyan's dissatisfaction, Princess Yongning turned her head and said, "Yu Qi, what do you think?"

Yu Qi sat to one side and answered Princess Yongning's questions seriously.

"It lacks momentum and doesn't capture the charm of 'Wild Geese Descending on the Sandbar'."

Even though Yu Qi's family background couldn't compare to her own, Liang Ruoyan couldn't help but say, "Then why doesn't Young Master Yu play 'Wild Geese Descending on the Sandbank'?"

Anyone could hear the dissatisfaction in Liang Ruoyan's tone.

Shen Hanyu smiled. Liang Ruoyan's personality had always been like this, but she would restrain herself a bit because Li Jun was here. Today, having lost so much face, Liang Ruoyan couldn't control her temper.

However, Liang Ruoyan's rendition of "Wild Geese Descending on the Sandbank" was indeed not very good.

Yu Qi stood up and bowed in response to Liang Ruoyan's provocation.

"Then I'll show my shame."

Princess Yongning nodded.

Yu Qi sat on the stool, and Liang Ruoyan walked down. She wanted to see what kind of tricks Yu Qi could pull.

Shen Hanyu and Princess Yongning both knew of Yu Qi's abilities; it can only be said that Liang Ruoyan was truly unlucky.

Not long after the music started playing, Liang Ruoyan sensed the difference between Yu Qi and herself.

She clenched her fists, no longer bothering to observe Li Jun, and stared intently at Yu Qi.

Who exactly is this Yu Qi?

After Yu Qi finished playing, there was no need to say who played well or poorly; everyone knew the answer in their hearts.

"You played very well," Princess Yongning said approvingly.

The dean smiled as well, indicating that he had no worries about Yu Qi in this regard.

Liang Ruoyan lowered her head, and Liang Ruoxue almost burst out laughing, but she held it in.

Fortunately, the matter was quickly put aside, and Princess Yongning said that they could compare the others again.

There weren't many things left to compete in, and writing an essay would take too much time, so they ruled that out first.

"Then let's have an archery contest."

The dean suddenly said something.

Archery is a sport practiced not only by men, but also by women, just like when they went on a spring hunt together.

Princess Yongning looked towards the girls' school, and the teachers nodded, which meant it was acceptable.

"Then let's have a competition."

Ji Yuxiu looked up; shooting arrows shouldn't be a problem.

The archery competition was held outside, so they all went outside.

"I'm not participating in archery." Wei Ming sighed. She was recovering from her illness and didn't have the energy for it at the moment.

Shen Hanyu nodded; she hadn't yet decided whether or not to participate.

It's much more relaxing outside than inside.

Many people went over and picked up their bows and arrows to try them out. The dean said it was just a friendly exchange, so there was no need to think too much about it.

As soon as Shen Hanyu stood still, she saw Yu Qi walking towards her.

"Miss Shen."

Shen Hanyu and Wei Ming both looked over.

Yu Qi looked at Shen Hanyu, who remembered that she was not familiar with Yu Qi.

Through Yu Qi, Shen Hanyu saw that several fruits had already been hung on the tree over there as targets for arrows.

Wei Ming asked in a low voice, "Do you two know each other?"

Shen Hanyu gently shook her head, saying she didn't know him in either her past or present life.

Yu Qi seemed to have overheard their conversation and smiled slightly.

"Would Miss Shen like to participate in archery?"

Shen Hanyu frowned, not answering Yu Qi's question, but instead giving him a wary look.

"Miss Shen, are you able to hit that fruit? If you do, I can answer your question."

Shen Hanyu looked into Yu Qi's eyes. Yu Qi's eyes were clear and mysterious. The words he spoke seemed to be known only to them.

She didn't have time to think it through; the competition was about to begin.

"Will Miss Shen participate?"

Shen Hanyu clenched her fists. To be honest, she wasn't particularly good at archery, and it was hard to say whether she could hit the fruit.

But she agreed anyway, wanting to know what Yu Qi had to say.

Wei Ming was a little worried, feeling that Yu Qi was very strange, but Shen Hanyu had already made a decision, and there was nothing she could do about it.

Can this person be trusted?

After Yu Qi left, Wei Ming did not ask Shen Hanyu what she wanted to know, but only asked for Shen Hanyu's opinion.

Shen Hanyu said she didn't know either.

"Give it a try. It's just a competition, there's nothing to lose."

Wei Mingxin agreed.

Shen Hanyu picked out a suitable longbow and glanced at the fruit hanging on the tree.

Xu Zhun and Pei Du stood together behind.

Xu Zhun asked with some confusion, "When did Yu Qi meet Miss Shen?"

Pei Du shook his head; he didn't know either.

Neither of them heard what Yu Qi and Shen Hanyu were saying, but Shen Hanyu, who had just been reluctant to participate in archery, now went over on her own initiative.

The two stood there, completely baffled.

Wei Ming brought Ji Yuxiu over to give Shen Hanyu a good tutoring session before the competition began.

Ji Yuxiu was very good at this, and she patted Shen Hanyu on the shoulder.

"Don't be nervous. Just like I taught you during the spring hunt, I guarantee you'll hit the target."

Shen Hanyu nodded. This time, it really depends on luck.

Ji Yuxiu measured the distance from here to the tree and told Shen Hanyu roughly how much force it would take.

After hearing this, Shen Hanyu became melancholy again. Yu Qi hadn't said what would happen if she missed the target the first time, so she could only wait until the competition was over before looking for him.

The archery competition begins. Each person has three arrows in their quiver, and they only need to hit the fruit on the tree.

Shen Hanyu drew her bow and nocked an arrow, aimed at the fruit hanging steadily on the tree, and shot it without hesitation.

The arrow tip grazed the fruit as it passed, the fruit swaying on the tree; it missed, by a hair's breadth.

Shen Hanyu was not discouraged. She took out a second arrow. With the experience she had just gained, she waited until the fruit stopped shaking, adjusted the angle slightly, and shot it again.

This time, the aim was much better, and the fruit was hit squarely.

The fruit that had been shot was taken down and placed in Shen Hanyu's palm. Shen Hanyu then took the fruit to find Yu Qi.

Yu Qi suddenly appeared from somewhere and reached out his hand.

Shen Hanyu handed the fruit over.

"Congratulations."

"what do you want to say?"

Yu Qi smiled and said, "What Miss Shen wants to know will become clear once she returns to Suzhou."

Shen Hanyu wanted to ask more questions, but Yu Qi had already turned and left.

In public, she couldn't very well get entangled with Yu Qi, so she could only obtain some nonsensical information and investigate it herself.

She wanted to go back to Suzhou, but she didn't have time to go back now; there were too many things to do here.

However, it would be fine to find someone trustworthy to do it.

Once the matter was settled, Shen Hanyu stopped worrying about it.

She turned around and saw Pei Du.

"Mr. Pei."

Pei Du's lips moved, but he couldn't help asking, "What did Yu Qi want with you just now? You didn't look too good."

Shen Hanyu remembered something and asked Pei Du for help.

Do you have any trustworthy people at the moment?
