Chapter 293: Not in the Mood to Ea (1/2)

Ling Xian’er was a completely different person compared to the one who was complaining to Pei Qingfeng. She was like a fairy who descended from heaven as she mingled among the common populace.

Compared to her change in temperament, Pei Qingfeng was more curious about her use of language. He immediately questioned, “I have a question for you. Who taught you such things?”

If her ‘great’ sisters taught her such things, I will ask Honored Tian Yun to transfer them away even if she hates me for it. How can they teach her such inappropriate language?

Ling Xian’er didn’t know that Pei Qingfeng was enraged and she brushed it off. “Where can I learn such things from other than those folk tales? Big Brother Qingfeng should start reading those romance novels. I heard from Honored Sir that you never interact with any women. If this carries on, won’t you remain single for the rest of your life? You’ll die alone without anyone by your side!”

Pei Qingfeng was gritting his teeth so hard that they were aching. However, he wasn’t able to scream at Ling Xian’er. He had no choice but to send her out.

When he saw that she was gone, Pei Qingfeng turned to his personal guard. “Look for Honored Tian Yun and let him know about her outrageous behavior. She had been reading too much junk and ask Honored Tian Yun to confiscate those books and burn them on the spot.”

The personal guard was about to leave, but he was called back after taking a single step out of the room. “Wait, don’t burn them. Bring them all to me.”

...

When the personal guard arrived in Ling Xian’er room to confiscate her books, she screamed at the top of her lungs, “Pei Qingfeng! How dare you do this to me! I was merely trying to be kind!”

When the personal guard saw the raging Ling Xian’er, he was terrified. After all, she might look like a beautiful fairy, but she was a little demoness.

“Young Lady Xian’er, my Master is doing this with your interest in mind.” He prepared to slip away after explaining himself.

“Wait!” Ling Xian’er called out to the personal guard and made him extremely apprehensive. He forced out a smile and replied, “Is there anything this servant can do for you?”

“I have a question for you. What is Big Brother Qingfeng going to do to all my books?” Ling Xian’er stared at the personal guard as she tried to detect traces of lies in his words.

That personal guard felt as though he had seen the doors of the netherworld when Ling Xian’er questioned him. The hair on his back was erect from fear. In order to escape from this she-devil, he spoke truthfully, “Young Lady Xian’er, Master initially ordered me to burn these books. However, he changed his mind and told this subordinate to bring them back to him. He will return them after Young Lady’s behavior improves.”

Ling Xian’er was very satisfied with his answer and immediately released the personal guard.
