If Feng Xun hadn’t intervened, Feng Wu knew that she would have coaxed Jun Linyuan into playing the game by now.
But why was Jun Linyuan so angry?
Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Feng Wu rested her chin on her right hand and was deep in thought.
Jun Linyuan had clearly gotten angry after Feng Xun showed up.
What did Feng Xun do?
Nothing, really. He only said one thing.
He said that Feng Wu was in love with someone else. Was it possible that Jun Linyuan was angry because of that?
Why should he be?
If Jun Linyuan was really angry because of what Feng Xun said, it meant that he wanted Feng Wu to like him.
The thought made Feng Wu jump to her feet.
She wanted to question Jun Linyuan, but on second thought, she felt that even if Jun Linyuan wanted her to like him it still wouldn’t prove anything.
People like Jun Linyuan were all very possessive. Everyone had to like him, regardless if he liked them or not.
At that thought, Feng Wu pouted and stared at Jun Linyuan.
The look in Jun Linyuan’s eyes was still very cold.
Feng Wu didn’t know what to say.
She didn’t want to indulge him, but she still needed his help…
But now…
Knock, knock, knock —
Someone knocked on the door.
Feng Wu’s stomach lurched. Feng Xun hadn’t come back, had he?
She asked, “Who is it?”
Granny Gong’s voice rang out. “Your Royal Highness, the farewell banquet held by the chieftain is going to start soon. His Majesty has sent Master Gao to invite you.”
A farewell banquet? Jun Linyuan wasn’t the type of person to attend such an event.
“I’ll decline the invitation if Your Royal Highness doesn’t want to go.”
Master Gao was on Jun Linyuan’s side and always wanted what was best for him.
From what he knew about the crown prince, the latter wouldn’t be interested in such a banquet at all.
Granny Gong thought the same.
So did Feng Wu. She then said, “Tonight, I —”
However, Jun Linyuan sat up before Feng Wu could finish.
Feng Wu looked at him in confusion.
Jun Linyuan walked past her without giving her a glance.
He walked past Feng Wu in an arrogant manner.
Feng Wu didn’t know what to say.
She couldn’t calm down when she thought about the ninth trial.
Without thinking, she followed Jun Linyuan and walked three steps behind him.
They were very close.
They walked out of the tent and Jun Linyuan suddenly stopped. He then turned to stare at Feng Wu.
Feng Wu gave him an innocent look.
Jun Linyuan said, “Don’t follow me.”
He then quickly walked away.
Feng Wu was exasperated!
The ninth trial!
She followed him without saying a word.
Jun Linyuan walked faster and faster until he looked like he was flying.
Feng Wu was right behind him, fearing that she would break the ten-step rule.
She was determined that Jun Linyuan had to play that game with her, and she had to tie herself to Jun Linyuan. Otherwise, it would be too dangerous!
“Can’t you understand what I said?” Jun Linyuan halted, turned around, and stared at Feng Wu.
