Living life freely, actively, and brightly.
However, now...
Was it because of what he said just now that he hurt her?!
He lightly pursed his lips.
A tinge of guilt started to grow in his heart.
He always talked to Ye Qichi like this, and he had never seen her get angry before.
What happened today...?!
Xiao Jinxing’s gaze swept over Ye Qichi almost imperceptibly.
He opened his mouth several tis wanting to speak, but swallowed his words each ti.
"Weren’t you the one who said not to look at you? Why are you looking at ?" Ye Qichi could also feel Xiao Jinxing’s gaze.
Xiao Jinxing quickly averted his eyes, as if he had a guilty conscience.
And his actions made him feel irritated again.
What was he afraid of Ye Qichi for?
He is the Prince.
He could look at whoever he wanted.
All sorts of conflicts and annoyances in his heart, yet he didn’t utter a word.
"Xiao Jinxing, it’s about ti you started learning martial arts," Ye Qichi changed the subject.
She felt that the right way to get along with Xiao Jinxing was to talk about careers.
Xiao Jinxing’s eyes flickered subtly.
He said indifferently, "I’m considering it."
"No need to consider any longer, start learning quickly," Ye Qichi urged. "Xiao Wu could get hurt too, and there will be tis when he can’t be by your side."
"Hmm," Xiao Jinxing responded.
Which was an agreent.
Rarely so straightforward!
In fact, in the original text, the later Xiao Jinxing was fierce.
With the aura of the male protagonist, his physical aptitude was naturally above ordinary people.
Once Xiao Jinxing started his martial arts training,
it would only take about half a year for his skills to beco exceedingly profound.
Ye Qichi pondered over so matters.
The two silently made their way to the Prince’s residence.
They got off the carriage.
Xiao Jinxing walked ahead.
After a few steps, he stopped again.
Ye Qichi frowned.
Xiao Jinxing asked, "Has Xiang Qin been staying here all along?"
"No, she’ll return to the Xie Residence after so ti."
"Hmm," Xiao Jinxing responded with a hum and walked off.
Ye Qichi was sowhat baffled.
Lu You said hastily, "Princess, the Prince must be implying that after Miss Xiang Qin leaves, you should move back to his courtyard."
"..." Lu You, you knew the editors wouldn’t dare write like that.
The two returned to the courtyard.
Inside, Xiang Qin was feeding grass to little white rabbits.
Seeing Ye Qichi return, she approached quickly, "Princess."
"Bored?" Ye Qichi asked.
"It’s alright."
She actually cherished this period of boredom.
Previously at the Ten Extres Sect, there was never such a ti; other than eating and sleeping, it was all about training.
Even when she had to take on different identities for various missions, she lived in constant vigilance.
Now that she finally had a chance to stop, she treasured this ti even more.
"There’s still so ti before dinner," Ye Qichi said. "How about we practice so martial arts?"
"Are you going to start learning martial arts right now, Princess?" Xiang Qin asked.
"Is that okay?"
"Yes," Xiang Qin agreed promptly. "But before learning martial arts, you need to decide which weapon suits you, Princess."
"Weapon?"
"Like the Sword, Spear, Sword, Halberd, Axe, Axe, Hook, Fork, Whip, teor Hamr..." Xiang Qin listed them one by one.
Ye Qichi felt overwheld.
She said, "Personally, I think I probably can’t handle very heavy weapons. And one of my strengths is that I should be very accurate in shooting."
"Bow?"
"Could give it a try," Ye Qichi said.
"The bow isn’t very practical for self-defense on a regular basis. However, we can test your shooting ability, and if it’s truly exceptional, then we can consider projectile weapons like darts."
"Good," Ye Qichi was excited.
Lu You was also very interested and quickly had soone fetch a bow and arrows.
Xiang Qin set up a simple target for Ye Qichi, "Stand here and try to hit the bullseye."
"Okay," Ye Qichi picked up the bow and arrows.
The bow and arrows were quite heavy.
She pulled it a bit.
"No, your technique is wrong." Xiang Qin adjusted for Ye Qichi.
Ye Qichi had never used a bow and arrow and was just going by feel.
Now, with Xiang Qin’s adjustnt,
she drew the bow and arrow again.
She was just about to shoot.
"I want to try from a farther distance," Ye Qichi declared.
"Are you sure?" Xiang Qin cautioned, "If it’s further away, you might not even hit the target."
"That might not be the case."
Seeing Ye Qichi’s full confidence, Xiang Qin didn’t crush her spirit.
They walked a few more steps together.
Ye Qichi, seeing it was at least ten ters away, drew the bow and arrow again and aid at the bullseye.
The arrow was released.
The arrowhead hit the bullseye accurately.
Xiang Qin was astonished.
Really astonished.
Logically, a person who had never used a bow and arrow couldn’t possibly hit the bullseye on the first try.
Lu You was dumbfounded by the side.
The next second she cheered loudly, "Princess, you were amazing, absolutely amazing!"
Ye Qichi was also in a great mood.
She looked at Xiang Qin.
Xiang Qin was more composed; as an assassin, she was used to not showing too much emotion. She said, "Try another shot."
Often tis, it might just be luck.
Ye Qichi nodded.
Xiang Qin handed another arrow to Ye Qichi.
Ye Qichi took the shot.
Accurately again, it hit the bullseye.
Xiang Qin believed it.
She believed in Ye Qichi’s exceptional talent.
In fact,
it wasn’t just talent.
In the apocalypse, she had been trained to shoot guns; accuracy had long been honed to be spot on every ti.
The principle of archery wasn’t much different from shooting,
so naturally, she could hit the target every ti!
