Chapter 553 - A Beautys Portrait (1/2)

Wu Qi rolled his eyes at Wu Yuan. “There’s no need to pretend. It’s not hard to guess what you’re thinking. You obviously like her. Why are you still marrying the princess?”

Wu Yuan just turned around and left. He was just grateful for what she had done and wanted to repay her kindness. Therefore, he had to become the Lord of Evanesce City so that he could help her whenever she needed help in the future.

After Feng Tianlan left the palace, she was free from the Beiqi Emperor’s lecherous eyes. She was finally left in peace. Therefore, she spent the whole day practicing in the Pill Scroll Realm. When her time was up, she would come out and refine some pills. Other than asking Azurite to pay attention to what’s happening outside, she shut herself from the outside world.

On the other hand, the Beiqi Emperor behaved as if he was possessed. His thoughts were filled with the scene of Feng Tianlan leaving. She was treading through the air like the goddess, Chang’er, flying to the moon. This scene was permanently imprinted in his mind. He couldn’t get rid of it no matter what.

He looked around at his three thousand concubines whom he once thought were peerless beauties. But now, when he compared them to Feng Tianlan, they were extremely dull. It was as if after seeing a delicacy, even without tasting it, he couldn’t take a bite out of simple meals anymore. He just kept thinking about the delicacy.

After knowing that the Beiqi Emperor had no appetite for food and drinks after Feng Tianlan’s departure, Gu Yun smiled sinisterly. “Bring the painting over, we are going to visit my father.”

Gu Yun showed up at the Beiqi Emperor’s palace with a scroll in her hand, having given no notice of her arrival. She looked at the Beiqi Emperor who had gotten thinner, lying on his bed.

When the Beiqi Emperor heard footsteps, he raised his head and looked through the bed curtains at Gu Yun who was approaching him slowly. He suddenly sat up with an energetic look. “Miss Feng, have you returned to the palace?”

“Father, it’s me.” Gu Yun frowned and lifted the bed curtains.

After taking a close look and realizing it was Gu Yun, the Beiqi Emperor lay back down. His attitude wasn’t friendly when he said, “What are you doing here?”

“I heard that Father is not feeling well, so I came here to take a look.” Gu Yun handed the scroll over to him. “I believe this painting will make Father feel better.”
