Feng Wu arrived first.
Feng Xun was in his own courtyard.
Feng Xun pretended that he was asleep when he heard Feng Wu call his name.
He thought that the girl was here to ask about Yu Mingye.
Boss Jun had been very angry about Yu Mingye’s fireworks and had told Feng Xun to look into it.
‘That was what Feng Xun had been doing since he left the Feng family.
Yu Mingye hadn’t come in person.
He was still learning from the Black Dragon King and had sent someone here to set off the fireworks to stake his claim on Feng Wu.
The entire imperial capital had seen it, and the crown prince was very displeased.
Feng Xun cringed when he imagined the price Yu Mingye was going to pay for what he did.
Feng Wu called his name again, but Feng Xun hid under his blanket and acted as if he couldn’t hear her.
But Feng Wu pulled the blanket away as soon as she entered his room.
Feng Xun yelled, “Hey! How can you be so rude?! I’m going to tell my beautiful aunt what you did!”
He knew how the beautiful lady had been trying to turn Feng Wu into a “proper lady.”
Feng Wu crossed her arms and asked grumpily, “What’s going on with Bao Er?”
“Is that what you’re here for? To ask about Bao Er?” Feng Xun was relieved.
Feng Wu raised her eyebrows. “Why? Do you have something else to tell me?”
Feng Xun shook his head. “Of course not. You have a higher clearance level than I do. What more can I tell you? Right, Bao Er.”
He immediately changed the topic.
“Why do you want to know?” he asked curiously.
Feng Wu said, “Someone told me that she’s the person His Royal Highness cares about the most. That’s why I’m curious.”
“Jealous, are we?” Feng Xun teased her.
Feng Wu rolled her eyes at him. “Jealousy implies that I care about him, but I don’t, so there’s no jealousy involved.”
Feng Xun wanted to roll his eyes at her.
He said, “It’s been a year since Northern Border City. How long are you going to keep denying it?”
Feng Wu stomped on his foot. “Shut up!”
Feng Xun sucked in his breath in pain. “I’m telling the truth! The two of you… Fine. You can keep saying that you don’t care about Boss Jun, but I’m sure that Boss Jun cares about you.”
Feng Wu said awkwardly, “No, he doesn’t!”
Feng Xun said, “Xiao Wu, be reasonable.”
Feng Wu turned around. “If you don’t want to tell me about Bao Er, I’m leaving now.”
Seeing that Feng Wu still refused to face reality, Feng Xun couldn’t stand it anymore.
He grabbed Feng Wu’s arm and said, “I don’t care if you don’t want to listen to me. You can’t keep running away from it. Can’t you see that Boss Jun has been quite… aggressive lately?”
Feng Wu said, “No, he hasn’t!”
Feng Xun said, “Do you remember the words formed by the fireworks about you and him?”
Feng Wu blurted out, “His Majesty wrote that!”
Feng Xun laughed. “And you believed that.”
Feng Wu said, “Why shouldn’t I? It was His…”
Feng Xun said, “Fine. Keep denying it, then. Boss Jun will force you to face it one day. It’s been a year, and his patience is running out.”

Feng Wu didn’t know what to say.
She didn’t feel like hanging around here anymore.
