Feng and Granny Gong stood outside the front gate as usual to greet the crown prince.
Behind them were two long rows of servants and maids, whose heads were lowered as they welcomed the crown prince respectfully.
Jumping off the horse, Jun Linyuan tossed his whip to Feng, then carried Feng Wu all the way to his bedchamber.
With Feng Wu in his arms, he acted as though no one else existed in this world. He left as fast as he had arrived, like a gust of wind.
However —
The two rows of servants and maids had astonishment written all over their faces.
They knew about the interactions between the crown prince and Miss Feng Wu, but this was the first time that he had made his attitude toward her so clear.
“Miss Feng Wu…”
The crowd eyed one another in bewilderment, and didn’t know what to do.
Feng glanced at them coldly and said indifferently, “Mind your own business.”
“Yes…”
Once the servants were gone, Feng and Granny Gong exchanged intrigued looks.
Their crown prince finally knew how to do the right thing. How amazing.
However, the two of them might have celebrated a little too early.
Jun Linyuan carried Feng Wu into the hot spring, which was filled with mist. He used one hand to send continuous streaks of spiritual essence into Feng Wu’s body.
Feng Wu was so drained that she felt as dry as hay. However, with the help of the dense spiritual essence, she began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye.
–
It seemed forever before Feng Wu woke up in bed.
The garden outside was full of plants and the sun was warm overhead. Sunlight poured into the room through an open window, illuminating the floor.
Feng Wu’s mind was completely blank, but slowly, memories came back to her.
She remembered the battle and Xuanyuan Yi, whom she had killed with her sword.
So, she had won the duel.
Feng Wu smiled, pleased.
Luckily, Jun Linyuan had helped her with her training the night before. Otherwise, she would have been the one lying dead there.
At that thought, Feng Wu was impressed by Jun Linyuan, and thought that she should express her gratitude to him.
When she got out of bed, Feng Wu realized in surprise that she was filled with spiritual energy to the point that it was spilling over.
How did that happen?
Feng Wu was confused.
She remembered that she had exhausted her spiritual essence after the battle with Xuanyuan Yi. It had left her worn out and with a pounding head and cramping muscles. How could she have recovered already?
Wait, she even had more spiritual essence than before. That was impossible.
Feng Wu was utterly confused. Had she been unconscious for so long that she had recovered all by herself?
“Miss Feng, you’re awake.”
Granny Gong showed up with four maids.
“Granny Gong?” Feng Wu remembered the old maid, who had been kind to her. “Why am I here?”
This was Jun Linyuan’s residence!
Granny Gong smiled behind her palm. “Miss Feng, can’t you remember anything at all?”
Feng Wu shook her head in confusion.
Granny Gong knew everything. As the crown prince’s great help, Granny Gong wouldn’t miss this great chance to praise her master in front of Feng Wu.
