Mrs. Zuo pursed her lips. These people didn’t know anything.
“Feng Wu only exerted the power of a Level 3 Spiritual Lord when she is in fact a Level 7 Spiritual Lord already. When she reveals her true capability, will they be shocked once more?”
She then thought about her children, Zuo Qingyu and Zuo Qingxian. Feng Wu had achieved so much in the grassland, but she had lost her children forever.
At that thought, she could barely control her hatred of Feng Wu.
Mrs. Gu and Lady Northern Feng showered Feng Wu with praise, but many people didn’t like it, especially Miss Tao.
She frowned and said, “Yes, she’s talented, but she’s a disgrace and has no sense of what’s moral! I have no respect for her whatsoever.”
Chaoge had long found Miss Tao an annoying character. Hearing that, she said angrily, “What’s that supposed to mean?”
Miss Tao snorted. “You know perfectly well what I mean.”
Chaoge said, “Use standard English. I don’t understand sarcasm.”
Miss Tao was used to getting things her way. She rose to her feet and said, “Feng Wu was acting familiar with Prince Jun Linshen in the garden just now! Everyone saw it! We’re not blind!”
Whoosh!
All eyes were on Feng Wu.
Only the teenagers had been in the garden just now, but here in the main hall, there were only female guests consisting of the noble ladies and their daughters.
Jun Linshen wasn’t here.
Chaoge rose to her feet as well, looking as intimidating as Miss Tao.
“There’s no ‘acting familiar with Prince Jun Linshen’! The prince flirted with Feng Wu!”
Miss Tao said, “See? You’ve admitted it yourself. There’s something going on between her and the prince!”
Chaoge was furious. That wasn’t what she meant!
“Xiao Wu, how many times do I have to tell you? A girl has to be aware of her actions. You can’t do things that will mislead other people,” Lady Wang said in a seemingly helpless tone. “I know there’s nothing going on between you and the prince, but other people may assume things. Otherwise, why are you the only one they gossip about?”
Feng Wu glanced at her.
That woman was getting better at this. After returning from the grassland, she had stopped attacking Feng Wu directly. Instead, she stayed behind the scenes to egg Lady Gu on.
She was more careful with her choice of words as well. What she said pretty much confirmed what Miss Tao said. It was slander in disguise.
Miss Tao gloated. “The crown prince will never marry you, but I’m going to marry Prince Jun Linshen soon.
“Feng Wu, stay away from my prince. Otherwise, I’ll burn your house to the ground!”
Thump!
Someone smacked the table.
The sudden noise made everyone jump.
They followed the sound and saw that it was Lady Northern Feng.
She was the person with the highest social status here, and right now, she was staring at Miss Tao with cold eyes..
