Chapter 37 Chi Jingxi: I Will Never be Distracted by This Person Again! 1

 

Wen Yantong really stopped and showed him a big smile. "Is there something wrong, Little Marquis?"

 

Chi Jingxi asked calmly, "Where did Mu Yang go?"

 

"He's sitting in the back. He asked me to switch seats, saying that he has something to tell Fu Zixian," Wen Yantong explained hurriedly.

 

"Come and sit first. Don't block the people behind." Cheng Xin waved at her kindly.

 

Wen Yantong felt as if she was granted amnesty. She quickly took a seat between Chi Jingxi and Cheng Xin and put the two crutches on her left side, trying to use them as a barricade against Chi Jingxi.

"Take these two broken sticks away," Chi Jingxi said before she could settle down.

 

Of course, Wen Yantong had no choice but to put the crutches on the ground obediently. She then pretended to watch the performance on the stage seriously, not daring to look around.

 

At this time, Cheng Xiao took the initiative to ask, "How is your leg?"

 

Wen Yantong said with an appreciative smile, "It's much better. Now, it doesn't hurt as much when walking."

 

"You rest well and recuperate. Maybe you will be able to take the cast off in a few days," Cheng Xiao said.

 

Wen Yantong said, "Then this humble one will borrow the Seventh Highness's auspicious words."

 

Cheng Xin then looked at her and said with a smirk, "Your xiqin skills are pretty excellent. I would have never guessed you had such a talent."

 

"Ah..." Wen Yantong said in surprise, "Unexpectedly, I’ve been seen through by you."

 

Cheng Xin didn't say how he noticed it but instead continued ‘praising’ her. "You are also very suited for wearing dresses."

 

Wen Yantong's heart thumped. She didn't know if there was a deeper meaning in his words, so she just laughed and replied, "His Royal Highness is joking. I am a dignified man. How can I wear a girl's dress?"

 

Cheng Xin didn't argue with her and instead turned to watch the performance on the stage with a smile.

 

Wen Yantong sensed that there was a hidden meaning under his smile and felt a little uncomfortable. Just as she was anxiously hoping Mu Yang to return sooner, the sound of the suona suddenly burst out from the stage. Wen Yantong was startled.

The sound of the suona was loud, and its penetrating power was extremely strong. In a hall where a sound transmission device was installed, such as the Eight Pillars Hall, the thundering sound felt as if it was penetrating the brain. Wen Yantong couldn’t help wrinkling her face into a ball and covering her ears.

 

Chi Jingxi was also quite displeased as seen in his tightened eyebrows.

 

The suona was supposed to be the finale of the banquet competition. Unexpectedly, the effect was not good, and the audience under the stage frowned. The people on the stage couldn't stop halfway, so they had to bite the bullet and finish the performance.

 

After the banquet program was over, there was a voting session. In addition to the teachers and the officials of the Imperial Academy, ten male students and ten female students were also eligible to vote.

 

These student candidates were set in advance. As soon as the show ended, someone came to the front row seats with pens and papers.

 

Wen Yantong looked around and found that everyone around her was selected to vote. Thinking about the banquet she also participated in, she wanted to cast a vote for herself.

 

She stretched out her head and looked at Cheng Xin's paper. She saw that both he and Cheng Xiao had written the ‘guqin’ group on the paper. She was visibly overjoyed. "Thank Your Highnesses! This favor is worth a thousand gold."

Cheng Xin replied, "To be fair, the Guqin performance was objectively the best performance I watched tonight."

 

Wen Yantong thanked him again and again before turning her head to look at Chi Jingxi's paper secretly, but she saw that his paper was still blank.

 

She cleared her throat and whispered, "Little Marquis, are you having trouble deciding?"

 

Chi Jingxi didn’t respond and kept looking at the blank paper thoughtfully.

 

At his lack of response, Wen Yantong moved closer to him and said, "There were so many wonderful programs tonight, hahaha."

 

Chi Jingxi frowned and looked at her, as if he wanted to see what trick she had up her sleeves this time.

 

Wen Yantong said with a smile, "The one with the marionette was pretty good. It was really realistic!"

 

Chi Jingxi’s expression didn’t change, but his mind couldn't help recalling the show. When he reacted, he realized that his thoughts had been led astray by Wen Yantong again.

 

Grumpily, he said, "Shut up."

 

Wen Yantong obediently closed her mouth, but she still did not move away from him.

 

Chi Jingxi's slender hand held the pen and did not move it for a while. Wen Yantong couldn't help but start persuading him again. "The guqin performance by the girls was also very pleasant..."

 

Before she finished speaking, the pen in Chi Jingxi's hand moved, marking the paper with black ink.

 

Wen Yantong craned her neck with hope, but her hopes were brutally crushed as she found that Chi Jingxi wrote the word "suona."

 

Wen Yantong: ? ? ? 

 

Who was the one who almost twisted his eyebrows into a single line just now? Who was it?!

 

"You can't be too against your heart..." Wen Yantong said with emotion, pretending to care.

 

Chi Jingxi gave her the side-eye. "Are you insinuating that I'm going against my heart’s desire?"

 

"I do not dare. Do not dare!" Wen Yantong hurriedly smiled to fawn over him and then lowered her voice for the second half of her sentence. "It’s only a certain someone who really knows..."

 

Chi Jingxi's face darkened. He then proceeded to crumple the paper into a ball and obtained a new piece of paper.

 

That last suona performance was very noisy, and the expression of disgust hung clearly on his face. After listening to Wen Yantong's remarks, he simply changed his vote to prove that he did not go against his heart.

 

Who knew that when he was about to write, he heard a light humming sound next to him. Chi Jingxi's hand halted, and he unconsciously listened to the melody.

 

After listening for two verses, he realized that Wen Yantong was humming the xiqin song she played on stage.

In all fairness, out of all the performances in tonight’s program, the guqin and xiqin duet left the deepest impression on people, including him.

 

But recalling Wen Yantong's cunning appearance, Chi Jingxi crumpled the blank paper in his hand.

 

In all fairness, my a**!
