The cold air coming out of him could freeze a person to ice!
“B- Boss Jun?” Embarrassed, Feng Xun immediately shot a warning glance at Feng Wu.
He didn’t need to think to know that Feng Wu had offended Boss Jun with what she said, so he prompted her to say something to make up for it.
Feng Xun thought that Jun Linyuan would flip his sleeves and walk off like he always did, but this time —
He kept his unblinking inky black eyes on Feng Wu as he walked over and sat down on a stone.
Immediately, the air seemed to freeze. No one dared to speak, nor make a sound.
“Ahem —” Feng Xun stepped out to save the day.
Because he knew that if he didn’t say anything, Boss Jun would probably stare at Feng Wu for the whole day.
“Well —” Feng Xun tried to find something to say, so he asked Xuan Yi, “Why don’t I see Linyun anywhere? He hasn’t run off to cry, has he?”
Xuan Yi shook his head. “Her Majesty the empress summoned him.”
Feng Xun nodded.
Jun Linyun was Empress Dugu’s own son, but to her frustration, he had never been close to the second prince, who was his own brother. Instead, he had followed Jun Linyuan around since he was little.
Therefore, Empress Dugu would lecture Jun Linyun whenever she could.
But she didn’t have much opportunity to do so, because Jun Linyun loved to roam afar, and she could never keep him close.
Feng Xun went on trying to change the subject. “Poor Linyun… By the way, does Her Majesty know that he’s determined to marry that unnaturally strong girl?”
Holding his sword between his arms, Xuan Yi nodded.
Feng Xun grinned. “He’ll have a miserable time, then. Her Majesty will give him a very long speech.”
Xuan Yi nodded again.
Feng Xun was speechless. Xuan Yi was such a bad conversation partner.
But if he didn’t say anything, the air would feel so icy cold that it hurt his back.
“Xiao Wu, what do you think of Linyun’s matter? Do you think he’ll be able to find that girl?” Feng Xun went on talking nonsense.
Jun Linyuan’s cold but intense gaze gave Feng Wu the creeps. Hearing Feng Xun speak, she immediately jumped on the wagon.
“The unnaturally strong girl?” Feng Wu was speechless.
Feng Xun said, “That’s right. I used to call her the rude girl, but Linyun wouldn’t let me, saying that it sullied her. But of course she’s rude – she hit a person as soon as she saw them.”
Feng Wu couldn’t stand it.
“Not necessarily. Maybe she’s just an ordinary girl who had to take his horse because she was in a hurry. Moreover, she might have given him some spiritual stones as compensation for it.”
Since no one would speak up for her, Feng Wu had to explain it herself.
“How did you know that she gave him spiritual stones? Right —” Feng Xun smacked his head. “I remember now. Linyun did seem to mention something about some spiritual stones, but I forgot about it. I never mentioned it to you, so how did you know?”
Whoosh —
Instantly, all eyes were on Feng Wu.
Feng Wu said, “Well…”
Jun Linyuan’s eyes were so sharp that Feng Wu felt her skin burn a little.
She cleared her throat. “I guessed it. Why can’t I? Just because you can’t guess it doesn’t mean that someone as smart as me can’t.”
Feng Xun scratched his head. “Something doesn’t feel right, but I can’t say what it is.”
