I’ll Be the Male Leads Sister-in-Law-Chapter 575

Mu Mingtang didn’t believe this. A familial ancestral technique of the mace was something that Xie Xuanchen could learn with just a few sparring sessions?

Xie Xuanchen understood Mu Mingtang’s expression of disbelief and raised his eyebrows with a smile, “You don’t believe me, do you?”

“No I don’t.”

“Do you dare to have a bet with me then?”

“What do we bet on?”

“You.”

Mu Mingtang was caught off guard and her face flushed. Trying to stay calm, she asked, “How can a living person be the subject of the bet? Your bet is invalid.”

Fine then, Xie Xuanchen took a step back and said, “Then let’s change it. How about you call me elder brother then?”

He was really persistent. Mu Mingtang felt that this bet was relatively safe, so she agreed, “That’s fine, but I get to choose the weapon.”

Mu Mingtang didn’t believe that he could use all the weapons before her.

Xie Xuanchen took a step back and looked at her with a smile, “Okay.”

Mu Mingtang believed that he could use the mace, so she had him demonstrate the spear, sword, and halberd. The longer this continued, the more that she realised he could use both one-handed weapons and two-handed weapons. It also didn’t matter if the weapons were long or short.

Xie Xuanchen simply demonstrated each weapon’s strengths, almost dancing with great vigor. Even laymen could tell that he was truly skilled. The master who was teaching the children martial arts was amazed and many younger servants gathered in the corridor, pointing at Xie Xuanchen in surprise.

Mu Mingtang felt like she was practically slapped in the face. Finally, Xie Xuanchen put down the last weapon, his eyes surprisingly bright, “Are you willing to accept the loss?”

Mu Mingtang pursed her lips, very unhappy. But Xie Xuanchen blocked her way and refused to give in. Seeing that more and more people were surrounding her, Mu Mingtang could only admit her loss and whispered, “Elder brother.”

After Mu Mingtang said those two words out loud, her cheeks suddenly turned into an intense shade of red, remembering that she had married Xie Xuanji in her previous life. If, back then, she had the chance of meeting Xie Xuanchen, she would have addressed him the same way.

Xie Xuanchen was satisfied and patted Mu Mingtang’s head with a smile, “Good girl. Hey, why is your face getting red?”

Mu Mingtang was embarrassed to say anything, but Xie Xuanchen just couldn’t read the room and kept asking. Since he was causing quite a bit of a ruckus, Jiang Mingwei had been watching them from a distance, and the envy in her eyes could not be masked.

Xie Xuanji on the other hand, looked at Mu Mingtang who was chatting and laughing with Xie Xuanchen. Then, he turned to Jiang Mingwei, a mere girl who couldn’t conceal her thoughts as she looked towards the distance with a less-than-pleasant gaze. Instantaneously, he felt very unhappy.

This time, he was truly green with envy.

Mu Mingtang noticed that Xie Xuanji and Jiang Mingwei seemed to be going through something as the former walked away with an unpleasant expression. Jiang Mingwei then looked at Xie Xuanchen with nostalgia before chasing after Xie Xuanji. Mu Mingtang supported herself on the fence with one hand and suddenly said to Xie Xuanchen, “She likes you.”

Xie Xuanchen looked back and saw the backs of the other two walking away, only then realising who the ‘she’ Mu Mingtang was talking about.

“How would you know?”
