668: Boldness

Boldness

Gu Chaoyan needed to check up on Zheng Chenyi's status before the contest.2

The rank was way too important for Zheng Chenyi to lose it. If someone else from the Zheng Family got the rank, it would be a huge insult for Duke North.

Zheng Chenyi looked very vital dressed in a set of sporty clothes.

When Gu Chaoyan saw his look of resolution, she became more and more certain about him getting the rank.

She felt his pulse, checking his physical condition and felt that he was in a good condition, at least better than she had expected.

However, she still gave him a pill. The pill was made of magical water and could keep him healthy.

Seeing Zheng Chenyi taking the pill, Gu Chaoyan nodded and felt assured.

"Alright, let's go to the pitch." Zhou Huaijin looked outside and reminded them.

Zheng Chenyi nodded seriously, then they left.

Zhou Huaijin and Gu Chaoyan were following him.

The Contest was open for the whole Zheng Family to watch. So the whole clan was already waiting there.

Mrs. Duke North was not in a good mood, so she was not present. Instead, it was the housekeeper and pageboys who were present. They had accompanied Zheng Chenyi to the court.

When Gu Chaoyan and Zhou Huaijin arrived, they took the side of Duke North's Mansion as well.

When they almost arrived at the pitch, Zhou Huaijin's guards exchanged a few words with him which made him frown. He said, "Chaoyan, you, Fu Bao and Sword One can go there first. I will join you soon."

Instead of asking anything more, Gu Chaoyan nodded. Then she did what he asked her to.

When the housekeeper saw Gu Chaoyan, he waved at her, knowing that she was standing by his side.

When Gu Chaoyan arrived…

The housekeeper and guard spared a place for her so that Gu Chaoyan had enough space to be seated.

The men from the Zheng Family were already on the pitch.

Gu Chaoyan glanced at them. Apart from some young men who were of the same age as Zheng Chenyi, some were already quite old. She shook her head slightly.

These people were so greedy about their rank. It seemed that every man from the Zheng Family was already there, fighting for the rank.

Gu Chaoyan had her eyes upon the pitch, but some women from the Zheng Family had their eyes upon Gu Chaoyan. Madame Zheng said ironically, "Haha, can this be the Miss who is marrying Zheng Chenyi? She looks so strange, I have never seen her in the capital."

"…"

"Honestly, misses from noble families are always known to me."

"…"

"But I have never seen her before, she must be from an unknown, minor family."

"…"

"Mrs. Duke North is so eager to get Zheng Chenyi engaged. Is she worried that if Zheng Chenyi loses today, even unknown families would not want to marry him?"

"…"

"Our Yunfan is not yet engaged. What is the point of getting engaged now? When he gets the rank, all the noble ladies would be there for him to pick from whenever he wants it."

As she was talking, she showed a proud smile. She had nothing to fear. Anyone who was willing to marry Zheng Chenyi could not be from any noble families. And when her Yunfan got the rank, no one would be able to do anything about her.

"How dare you!" Fu Bao bellowed angrily.
