Chapter 3290: Lan Mengqing’s Challenge (5)
Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
“Young Madam Li, are you seriously not going to accept my challenge?”
Huang Yueli nodded and said, “I’m serious!”
Lan Mengqing sneered upon hearing that, and her eyes were filled with disdain!!!
“Do you know that if you don’t accept a challenge on this kind of occasion, it is akin to disrespecting the host? Today, Lord Xuan organized this banquet because of Young Master Li. As Young Master Li’s wife, you actually refused to compete! What will other people think of Young Master Li?”
Huang Yueli rose an eyebrow when she heard that.
Lan Mengqing continued to say, “Other people don’t care who you are, but they will say that Young Master Li had lost his head over lust. He married a piece of trash with only beauty who doesn’t even dare to accept someone’s challenge! You will turn Young Master Li into God Realm’s laughing stock!”
“Shut up!”
Lan Mengqing intentionally went overboard, hoping to pique Huang Yueli’s anger so that she would accept the challenge in a fit of impulse.
Whoever knew that before Huang Yueli had said a thing, Li Moying had lost his cool. He slammed the table and stood up!
He wanted to swat Lan Mengqing, the irritating fly, to death with his sharp bark.
Huang Yueli acted swiftly and pushed him back in his seat. Then she looked at him, expressing for him to remain calm.
Li Moying’s anger still hadn’t dissipated so when he looked at Huang Yueli, it was filled with dissatisfaction!
Huang Yueli felt rather helpless over her man! She thought, “Wasn’t he the one who asked me not to deal with her too excessively?”
“What about now? He wanted to kill Lan Mengqing directly!”
But Huang Yueli was aware that Li Moying was an extremely calm and steady man. If anyone were to scold him, he might be able to tolerate it. But since Lan Mengqing was scolding her, it would have triggered Li Moying’s inverse scale. It would be a wonder if he didn’t flare up!
Huang Yueli secretly pinched Li Moying from under the table.
Li Moying gave a cold snort and swept her a cold, fleeting glance.
Huang Yueli gave a fawning smile and tried hard to placate this man before turning to Lan Mengqing.
“Young Miss Lan, I’ve thought about this carefully and I feel that what you say seems logical! My avoidance of the fight indeed easily caused others’ misunderstanding. I don’t really care about my reputation, but I don’t like other people to say bad things about my husband!”
Lan Mengqing was so shocked by Li Moying’s bark earlier that her face turned pale and retreated a couple of steps back.
Until now, her complexion was still white and her senses were still unsettled.
Since things had come to this stage, Lan Mengqing felt that her challenge would likely fail.
Whoever knew that when Huang Yueli spoke up again, that tone didn’t sound right.
“You… your meaning is… could it be…”
Huang Yueli smiled and nodded her head. “Yes, since you insist on challenging me, then I can’t just reject you in this way! Since you want to compete, then let’s have a competition!”
Hearing Huang Yueli finally agreeing, Lan Mengqing couldn’t believe her ears at all.
After a while, she came back to her senses and showed an ecstatic look.
“Good, that’s great! You agreed to this yourself, so you can’t regret it!”
“Of course, I wouldn’t regret it!” Huang Yueli responded slowly.
Hearing Huang Yueli agreeing to Lan Mengqing’s challenge, all the practitioners in the banquet hall became excited!
“Heavens, did I hear it correctly? Young Madam Li actually agreed to Young Miss Lan’s challenge!”
