deadly mantra

Chapter 423 No More

The pebbles rushed forward rapidly on the water, causing ripples in circles.

Both of them counted silently in their hearts.

The stone jumped on the water surface fifteen times in a row, until the resistance of the water completely consumed the stone's forward energy, and the stone sank into the water.

"Fifteen jumps. It's your turn." Feng Xiaoyao said confidently.

Ji Fanyin walked over with a smile on her face, threw the stone in her hand high, and caught it steadily.

Then, she imitated Feng Xiaoyao's actions just now, bending down, squinting her eyes, and throwing stones.

The pebbles flew across the water, bounced, and flew again, constantly bouncing forward until... they jumped onto the shore on the other side of the lake.

Ji Fanyin clapped her little hands, put her hands on her hips, turned around and grinned:
"See, remember what my aunt is wearing today. Don't say I blackmailed you later."

Feng Xiaoyao exclaimed in disbelief:
"Impossible! Of all the games, I am the best at this. I often play by the river!"

Ji Fanyin shrugged slowly and thought, what's the point of being by the river? She has been playing on the sea since she was a child.

Feng Xiaoyao yelled with red eyes:
"I'm not convinced! Come again."

Ji Fanyin nodded:

"Okay, remember the boots my aunt is wearing today."

Feng Xiaoyao:

"Come!"

After a while.

Ji Fanyin said with a smile:
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, good luck is coming. I can't stop it. Are you still coming?"

Feng Xiaoyao said angrily:
"Come!!"

Ji Fanyin raised her eyebrows:
"Do you remember the clothes Chenchen wore today? Let's bet on this this time."

Another moment passed.

Ji Fanyin shook his head and said helplessly:
"Can you help others wash their hair?"

Another moment passed.

Ji Fanyin was very embarrassed and said:
"Can you pinch your feet?"

Another moment passed...less than a moment.Ji Fanyin looked distressed:
"...Shoulder pinch?"

After half an hour.

Feng Xiaoyao's cheeks turned red, and hot sweat broke out on her forehead and tip of her nose. She rushed into the pavilion, picked up the cold tea, and drank it all. The hand holding the cup couldn't stop shaking:
"Give me a reason!! Why do I always lose!"

Ji Fanyin held back her laughter, walked into the pavilion, and sat down next to him:
"Because you can't beat me. Is this reason acceptable?"

Feng Xiaoyao sat down with a rather ugly expression on his face, but he was not a loser. He sat up straight and said:
"I am willing to admit defeat and I will fulfill my promise."

Ji Fanyin smiled without saying a word, picked up the tea cup, and raised his eyes to the blue sky.

"We entered the palace at Chen time, and it is already noon now. Is it possible that this queen... still intends to keep us here for lunch?" Feng Xiaoyao said what Ji Fanyin was thinking.

The voice just fell.

The young eunuch came in with several palace maids.

Ji Fanyin and Feng Xiaoyao looked at each other in tacit understanding.

really.

Feng Xiaoyao pursed her lips into a thin line. She endured it again and again, but still couldn't help the sullenness in her heart. She opened her mouth and was about to ask the little eunuch about Mu Chanyi.

Ji Fanyin picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of meat, and put it on the plate in front of him:

"eat."

Feng Xiaoyao frowned:
"I don't want to eat, I have no appetite."

Ji Fanyin raised her eyes slightly:
"eat."

Feng Xiaoyao curled her lips and reluctantly picked up the chopsticks.

Seeing this, the little eunuch glanced at Ji Fanyin in surprise, and then quickly looked away.

After lunch, new tea and new cakes were served.

Ji Fanyin picked up the tea cup, took a sip, and looked towards the bushes diagonally behind her under the moonlight.

The people hiding there to monitor them have changed three times.

Feng Xiaoyao frowned and whispered:
"What is this? To use a gentle policy towards Mu Chanyi, but to use force against the two of us?"
