Tong Sanlang's appearance, even in the Capital City, stood out exceptionally.

Of course, he still fell short compared to him.

With looks alone, His Highness the King Wei ranked top in the Capital City.

However, for a country bumpkin like Qiao Xiaomai who had seen little of the world, Tong Sanlang's looks would certainly be considered top-tier.

Moreover, it seemed that this man had caught Qiao Xiaomai, and Yang Ye was somewhat surprised.

Could it be that when Qiao Xiaomai rejected him earlier, it wasn't a ploy to play hard to get?

Qiao Xiaomai”…”

Damn it, these aristocrats are all mad.

“You've misunderstood, sir. The young lady and I are merely from the same village. Our relationship is not what you think,” Tong Sanlang clarified.

“Oh.” Yang Ye's gaze swept over Tong Sanlang and Qiao Xiaomai, and he chuckled a few times.

Forget it, whether it was a ploy or not, he should send Bai Zhi back to the Capital City first.

He had plenty of time to slowly deal with Qiao Xiaomai here.

It was impossible for him not to take notice of such an exceptional cook!

With that in mind, he beckoned to Qiao Xiaomai, “Come, let's discuss the match three days from now.”

Upon hearing his words, Qiao Xiaomai slowly emerged from behind Tong Sanlang.

“Four dishes, one soup and a dessert. I will invite many judges to ensure a fair competition. As this relates to your wealth and assets, you must give it your all.”

Qiao Xiaomai made a sound of acknowledgment. She had to give it her all, as it concerned her wealth and assets, even if it provoked Bai Zhi's revenge.

Seeing her spirits weren't high, Yang Ye added, “Don't worry. Once you win, 1 will send her back to the Capital City. She won't cause you any trouble.”

Qiao Xiaomai acknowledged it again.

Seeing this, Yang Ye guessed she might be somewhat frightened. He turned his gaze and addressed Tong Sanlang, “Since the two of you are from the same village, you should comfort her. You know martial arts, right?”

Tong Sanlang nodded.

“Then come along in three days, to bolster her courage.”

Tong Sanlang nodded again.

He had guessed how things had unfolded. Knowing Bai Zhi's temper, he had to be present in three days.

Even though today's humiliation and awkwardness made him wish never to see Qiao Xiaomai again, he had to follow through. He had to see Qiao Xiaomai safe and unharmed with his own eyes.

She really is an ordinary person.

She needs protection.

“Alright, go about your business.” Yang Ye gestured dismissively, then took his leave.

He had to go back and inform Bai Zhi about Qiao Xiaomai.

Even if it was a rural girl like her, Bai Zhi could not mess with someone who already had a reputation before his father, the emperor.

As soon as Yang Ye left, the crowd dispersed. Tong Sanlang turned to Qiao Xiaomai, pursed his lips, and said, “Don't worry. I'll come quietly in three days. You just focus on the competition.”

He always remembered that Qiao Xiaomai didn't want any entanglement with him.

Qiao Xiaomai kept her gaze lowered, remaining silent.

“Princess Bai Zhi has always prided herself on her cooking. Prepare the best dishes you can and fight back,” Tong Sanlang added.

To Qiao Xiaomai and Bai Zhi, this was the best and only form of retaliation.

“Thank you, Brother San,” Qiao Xiaomai finally said, “My father and Dami are still in Zuixian Building. I'll go find them.”

With that, she headed towards the entrance of the Zuixian Building.

Tong Sanlang watched her figure, sighing softly to himself.

He returned to his ox-cart.

“You revealed your skills.” No sooner had he sat down on the ox-cart than Tong Tiehu said to him.

Tong Sanlang's handsome face broke into a bitter smile, “I couldn't just stand by and watch her fall..”
