Poisoning the World: The Secret Service Mysterious Doctor is a Young Beastly Wife

Chapter 464 - The White Lotus went as far as to provoke her!

However, their skills somewhat lacked control compared to Ning Xuemo, who was starting to feel a little bit impatient, thus she turned her head to look outside the window.

There were many windows on this ship. One was near her seat, hence she felt drowsy while hearing the whistling sound of the night and the oar across the water. Those notes plucked by the musicians in the background all became lullabies for her…

Not knowing when, one of them stopped playing: “Since Lady Xue is an expert from the capital, why don’t you give this humble girl some advice on her skills? Lady Xue? Lady Xue?” someone gently spoke.

Ning Xuemo was wavering between slumber and reality, when she was being softly pushed.

She finally sobered up.

After she turned her head, she noticed Rong Yan who paused her movements and was staring at her right now.

Her questions were gentle and polite, but a venomous glint of scorn flashed in her eyes.

She very clearly realized that Ning Xuemo was dozing off, so she took advantage of it to embarrass her: “Lady Xue is not falling asleep, right? Could it be that because we are all inferior musicians, the sound does not suit Lady Xue’s taste?” Rong Yan’s voice became softer and caustic.

“Rong Yan!” Gu Ziyan showed displeasure.

“Pardon me, Big Brother Ziyan. This little girl really wishes to hear Lady Xue’s judgement. A Great Master from the capital surely must be special. This little girl will benefit from her suggestions” Rong Yan was determined to hamper Ning Xuemo, also thanks to the fact that she was aware that when it was her turn to play the zither, Ning Xuemo was half asleep already.

All the eyes fell on Ning Xuemo, wanting to see how she would respond.

Ning Xuemo couldn’t help but smile. The White Lotus was actually asking for troubles! At first she didn’t want to do unnecessary things and act like a good person instead… but…

Her gaze reached Rong Yan’s pretty face. And then she smiled again: “Do you truly want to know what I think?”

Her tone of voice was soft and very affable. However, Rong Yan felt an indescribable shiver in her heart!

Her intuition made her understand she has offended someone she shouldn’t have had. But they already spoke until here, so she didn’t have any rooms left to cower. In fact, she nodded her head aloofly: “Please enlighten me with your teachings, Lady Xue”

“Since you wish to hear my opinion so badly, then it means that Lady Rong sees me as a top-notch Master, equal to those four Great Masters. This being the case, you ought to address me in this way too, so don’t call me Lady Xue anymore, even breaking the rules. You don’t need to consult me on that, am I right? Lady Rong?”

Rong Yan: “…” Her words were so sarcastic that she wasn’t able to rebuke at all.

However, how was she willing to call her Great Master Xue?

Her eyes shifted. And then, she opposed sweetly: “What Lady Xue said was indeed reasonable, but we still haven’t witnessed your genuine abilities and skills yet. Even if I changed appellation, but I am afraid that the present Ladies and Gentlemen won’t agree to it. Lady Xue should demonstrate you are truly talented first, and then it will be alright”

“è! May I know why Lady Rong is insisting so much in wanting to see my performance?” Ning Xuemo raised her eyebrows, “To the extent of making me play the zither for you?… I remember my turn was the last one. If I had to play now, I would be overstepping the customs of the meeting. Or does Lady Rong believe that you can change the rules as you wish, only because you feel superior to others and have a childhood sweetheart who is part of the evaluation committee?”

Rong Yan became speechless again. She was about to open her mouth again and continue to retort, when Gu Ziyan intervened readily: “The rules must not be bended!”
