It didn’t take a genius to see that Feng Liu was showing off.
That only settled Feng Wu’s mind further.
“Go pack. You only have two hours. We’re setting out as soon as the day breaks,” Feng Liu prompted.
Feng Wu snorted. “I’m perfectly happy living here in Northern Border City. Why should I go with you? I’m staying right here.”
Her beautiful mother suddenly took her hand with teary, pleading eyes. Her cheeks were streaked with tears, which was the last thing Feng Wu wanted to see in this world.
Feng Wu’s heart sank and something felt very wrong. Before she could ask —
“Hahahaha —” Feng Liu guffawed. “Feng Wu, haven’t you realized that your brother isn’t here?”
Her brother? Only then did Feng Wu realize that she hadn’t seen Feng Xiaoqi anywhere. With his restless temperament, he would have been the first to run out at something as big as a collapsed house. Wait...
Feng Wu took her mother’s hands and looked into her beautiful eyes. “Mum?”
The beautiful lady’s eyes swam with tears and she started crying before she could speak...
“Hahaha —” Feng Liu went on laughing. “Jun Linyuan took your brother! He took Feng Xiaoqi to the imperial capital! Hahaha —”
Feng Wu’s heart sank!
Jun Linyuan took Feng Xiaoqi?! Why?!
Thinking back to Jun Linyuan’s indecipherable expression and his knowing look, Feng Wu was utterly frustrated. What did the guy want?!
Feng Liu darted Feng Wu a distasteful glance. “Anyway, we’re leaving in two hours. Brother and I will tie you up and escort you to the imperial capital even if you don’t want to! Suit yourself!”
At the thought of having the entire Feng clan to back her up once they were back in the imperial capital, and that she would be able to make Feng Wu do anything — turn her into a maid, or a slave! — Feng Liu made a fist in satisfaction, then left the courtyard, laughing all the way.
Feng Wu furrowed her fine eyebrows.
Her beautiful mother looked around to make sure that Feng Liu was really gone. She then took a letter out of her sleeve and stuffed it into Feng Wu’s hands. Lowering her voice, she said gingerly to Feng Wu, “I hid it well! No one took it away!”
Feng Wu rubbed her beautiful mother’s glossy black hair affectionately, then unfolded the letter.
It was from Feng Xun.
Feng Xun’s letter was in his usual style and rambled on.
However, it came with its merits: Feng Xun told her everything, including things that maybe he shouldn’t have.
“We were going to stay for a while in Northern Border City, but we received an urgent message and had to leave in the middle of the night.
“Did I tell you? We came here to Northern Border City this time to search for the Immortal Spiritual Fruit because the life of a very pretty and very lovely girl depends on it.”
A pretty and lovely girl? Who was that? Feng Wu frowned. She still couldn’t figure out who it was after racking her brain.
“Hahaha! I bet you’re dying to find out who that girl is, aren’t you? Our Boss Jun was willing to travel thousands of miles from the imperial capital for her – what do you think she is to him?
“Are you jealous? Hahaha! Don’t even try to compare yourself with her. If the place you take up in Boss Jun’s heart is about the size of a sesame seed, she takes up his entire mind! She’s the only girl that Boss Jun treats gently. Feel jealous all you want, but you’ll never be her match.”
