After Feng Tianlan instructed Chuling to watch the two sisters’ movements and report to her, she went to Luo Manor to pick up Luo Yunzhu. The moment Luo Yunzhu got into the carriage, she stared at Feng Tianlan with panda eyes. “Tianlan, Tianlan! Tell me quickly, what’s going on with you and Wargod?”
“You didn’t sleep well last night?” Feng Tianlan asked with concern when she noticed the dark rings around Luo Yunzhu’s eyes.
“I’ve been feeling so uneasy and restless, so I couldn’t sleep at all night.” Luo Yunzhu threw an arm around Feng Tianlan’s neck. “Spit it out now. What’s going on, and how long has it been?”
After she saw them kissing the day before, she felt as if a tiny kitten were living inside her heart, scratching and running around non-stop. If she didn’t find out what was going on right this instant, the curiosity would kill her.
Chuling replied weakly, “Miss Luo, this isn’t something to celebrate. I think it’s better not to ask. Do not talk about it so loudly.”
“What do you mean, ‘it’s not something to celebrate’? It totally is – look at how compatible they are.” Luo Yunzhu shrank back after saying that, because the current situation made them look like they were having an affair in secret. But then, one was the Wargod, and the other was the Feng Clan Head, so she was sure nobody would dare to say anything about them.
“Didn’t Wargod say that Tianlan is his fiancée?” Luo Yunzhu’s eyes lit up instantly. “Doesn’t that make Tianlan the Wargod’s consort?”
“Tianlan, hurry up and tell me what’s happening. Did you two become partners in crime after that first battle of life and death? OH, WAIT, NO! That’s not the right word…I mean, was it love at first sight? Did you each see your future in the other? One is a hero saving a damsel in distress, and the other offers herself as repayment – this is going to go down in history!”
Feng Tianlan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry as she watched Luo Yunzhu come up with a thousand and one possible love stories all by herself.
“Oh, but wait a minute. Something’s not right. I remember you slapped him, hard.” Luo Yunzhu blinked when she thought about the slap that Feng Tianlan had given him. Her heart started pounding in fear because Wargod was very frightening.
Feng Tianlan looked down at the heart-shaped ring on her left hand and summarized her relationship with Si Mobai to Luo Yunzhu. Then, she said very seriously, “I don’t want anyone to know about this.”
Luo Yunzhu still wasn’t very clear on the details, but she understood one thing: the Wargod liked Tianlan, but Tianlan didn’t like him. So, the two of them were now in a situation where one insisted on doting on her, while the other repeatedly rejected his advances.
“Looks like my instincts were right, after all. The Wargod does like you.” Luo Yunzhu’s eyes fell on the ring on Feng Tianlan’s hand, and then she changed the topic. “I just realized you have a ring on. It’s very pretty, but why is it only half of a heart?”
“Because there’s another half.” Feng Tianlan thought about the night when Si Mobai had put this ring on her. For some strange reason, her heart suddenly trembled.
The ring was very pretty, but it wasn’t easy to notice on her hand unless one looked closely. Si Mobai always gave off a murderous air and didn’t allow anyone close to him, so nobody had noticed that both of them were wearing the same ring.
“I’m sure you’ll find the other half. Don’t let that scoundrel, Si Rong, get to you. Wargod is a bit cold and scary, but he’s nice to you, so you should consider him.”
Luo Yunzhu thought that Feng Tianlan was rejecting the Wargod because she was traumatized by what Si Rong had done to her, so she tried to counsel Feng Tianlan.
Feng Tianlan looked up at Luo Yunzhu. “Aren’t you embarrassed by what you’ve said?”
“Sure, Wargod is so cold that he can create three feet’s worth of ice in an instant, and he’s definitely more than just a bit scary.” Luo Yunzhu stuck her tongue out cheekily. “But when it comes to you, he is as warm as the spring breeze after winter. His gentleness can melt an iceberg.”
