Feng Tianlan wanted to scoff, but she kept a straight face and continued with her gentle reminder, “She’s not in a good position to marry royalty anymore. I suggest you make other plans and give this wonderful gentleman, whom you speak so highly of, to my sister instead.”
All of Feng Xiuyu’s clothes had been torn off in public, and she still wanted to marry royalty? What lofty dreams she had!
“Feng Tianlan, give me the token, and I’ll arrange a marriage for you tomorrow.” Since putting it politely hadn’t worked, Feng Xiang became angry and started to threaten.
Feng Tianlan merely raised an eyebrow. “And what if I say no?”
“Humph! Nobody wants a woman who has been rejected, not even as a second wife.” Feng Xiang kept his eyes on the brocade box. He was just shy of snatching it away from her. “The Tianhai Trade house has a shopkeeper who likes girls with good complexions. If you continue to be disobedient, I’ll get him to haul you away.”
Feng Tianlan raised another eyebrow at this. So, if she gave him the token, he’d make her the wife of a pervert general. If she didn’t give him the token, he’d make her a shopkeeper’s concubine? What sort of father was this? He did not deserve to be called a father!
“I heard that some medicine that she ate destroyed third sister’s cinnabar field, and not an external force,” Feng Tianlan narrowed her eyes as she spoke, trying to direct them with her words. “She only took a Marrow Cleansing Pill and a Spirit Boosting Pill, so there must have been some problem with these two pills. Did you go and check?”
“Don’t try to change the topic. Hurry up and give me the token.” Feng Xiang could not think about anything else but that marriage token. He had been waiting for it for the past ten years.
Xu Jiayi’s maternal instinct was stronger, and she quickly asked Feng Tianlan, “What do you mean?”
“Don’t interrupt. Can’t you tell which matter is more important?” Feng Xiang was irritated that Xu Jiayi had cut into his conversation.
“This concerns Yu’er, so how can you just ignore it? Of course, we have to investigate properly!” Xu Jiayi shouted back at him. Whenever she thought about how her genius daughter had now become a good-for-nothing, her heart ached terribly.
Feng Xiang retorted, “Take the token back first, and we’ll get to the other matters later.”
“Yu’er is now considered useless, so I will not let this matter rest. She is our pride and joy!”
Feng Tianlan watched as they started arguing about whether the marriage token was more important than investigating what had happened to Feng Xiuyu. She smirked and turned to leave. It was clear that Feng Xiang would do anything to achieve what he wanted. Nobody was more important than him. Such a selfish and shameless man!
“Feng Tianlan, stop there!” Feng Xiang suddenly realized that she had walked off and quickly shouted after her.
Seeing that she was not stopping, he leaped in her direction and sent a Palm Wind toward her back. When she felt the powerful Palm Wind coming toward her, she quickly moved to one side. The strong wind rushed past her face, making her cheek hurt from its sheer force.
“Are you trying to kill me?”
Feng Tianlan stood where she was and stared at Feng Xiang with cold eyes. Her face was still numb from the Palm Wind rushing past her, making her look even more hostile. Although she was used to Feng Xiang’s repeated attempts to murder her, somehow, this body still felt deeply hurt every time.
Even the most ferocious animals take good care of their young, Feng Tianlan thought to herself. But Feng Xiang will not stop trying to kill me. What sort of terrifying personality does this man have?
Feng Xiang dissipated the wind and stood in front of Feng Tianlan. His eyes remained steadfast on the token in Feng Tianlan’s hands as he said, “So long as you give me that token, I will give you all the riches you want. I can even make you one of my heirs.”
