Chapter 583 Kowtow and Apologize
She remembered their voices as she looked viciously at the contestants who were scolding her, then she knelt down amidst the scolding
Feng Jianing bent her legs and knelt on the golden tiles of the Sacred Hall. Then, she supported herself with both hands and kowtowed three times to the contestants who had been insulting her just now. Feng Jianing’s expression was gloomy. Every kowtow was very loud, and her forehead was flushed red.
After the three kowtows, Feng Jianing knelt on the ground and said, “I’m sorry, everyone. I was wrong. I shouldn’t have privately brought contraband in the grand finals, much less mixed it in the spices provided by the organizing committee. I lost my head for a moment and did something I shouldn’t have done. I beg everyone’s forgiveness. I hope everyone can give me a chance to turn over a new leaf.”
Feng Jianing started sobbing uncontrollably as she spoke. Her tear-stained appearance was really pitiful. When everyone saw that she really didn’t care about her dignity and knelt down to apologize, they were instantly speechless. As the saying goes “don’t make a fuss about nothing”. She had already kowtowed and apologized in public. So what if they didn’t forgive her?
Tessa said loudly as she saw that everyone was silent, “Everyone, listen to me. Since Feng Jianing has already knelt and kowtowed to apologize to everyone, can everyone forgive her? She already knows her mistake!”
When she said this, Tessa went towards the contestants, her tone filled with self-righteousness. The contestants felt embarrassed after hearing her words. If Feng Jianing were them, they probably wouldn’t have the courage to kneel and apologize.
“Forget it. Seeing that you sincerely admit your mistake and Miss Tessa is so supportive of you, I personally forgive you.”
“I forgive you too. After all, even Imperial Concubine Anna allowed you to attend the banquet, which means that she wants to give you a chance to turn over a new leaf. I hope you can be an upright person in the future.”
“Hmph, since you’ve already knelt and kowtowed, I’ll give you a chance. If not for you tampering with the spices this time, I wouldn’t have lost my rhythm and wouldn’t even enter the top ten.”
The contestants spoke one after another. Most of them weren’t native to Country F, and after attending this banquet, they wouldn’t have any interactions with Feng Jianing anymore. They didn’t have to keep harping on it since she sincerely begged for forgiveness.
Tessa hugged her arms and turned to look at Feng Qing after seeing that the other contestants had forgiven Feng Jianing. Her face was filled with smugness and a cold smile. “Miss Feng Qing, did you see that? Jianing has already kowtowed and admitted her mistake. Moreover, everyone has already forgiven her. What about you, champion?”
Before she could finish her sentence, Feng Jianing knelt on the ground and turned to look at Feng Qing. A very sincere expression appeared on her face. Then, she kowtowed heavily to Feng Qing again. Everyone could hear the sound of her forehead hitting the ground.
However, from Feng Qing’s angle and distance, she could clearly see the reflection on the golden tiles. Feng Jianing, whose forehead was touching the ground intimately, didn’t have any guilt or sincerity on her face. It was filled with hatred and ferocity.
Feng Qing didn’t see wrongly, nor did she think wrongly. This was because wolves traveled a thousand miles to eat meat, dogs traveled a thousand miles to eat shit. This was an unchanging truth. How could a person like Feng Jianing willingly kneel down to her? How could she really allow herself to lose to Feng Qing? It was just that the current situation forced her to do this.
Feng Jianing, who was kneeling on the ground, trembled slightly. She looked like she was crying because of what happened just now, but it was actually because of anger and hatred. She swore in her heart. Feng Qing, you damned wild girl, little slut, shameless slut. I’ll kowtow to you today. In the future, I’ll make you pay ten or a hundred times!
As she thought this, Feng Jianing said something else. “Qingqing, my sister, I was wrong. I kowtowed to you. I was wrong this time. I kowtowed to you. Please forgive me.”
Feng Qing raised her eyebrows and didn’t say a word as she watched her kneel on the ground and perform. She wanted to see how far Feng Jianing could act.
“Qingqing, if you’re unwilling to forgive me, I’ll keep kowtowing to you. The time you forgive me would be when I get up.” Seeing that Feng Qing had no reaction, Feng Jianing kowtowed again.
“Qingqing, please forgive me. I was wrong.”
“I was wrong. Please forgive me.”
“Qingqing, I really know my mistake. Give me a chance to turn over a new leaf…”
