Chapter 73 Part 2 — (2/2)

”Disciple, Master will only ask you one question. Are you willing to spend your days in Nanling with Nangong Yin?”

”…” Xiao Xi did not reply.

”If you're not willing, then why are you still thinking about his good deeds? Unless… you were willing to use your body as repayment for all the things he

”…” She was speechless.

Zi Yi's line of sight suddenly moved towards a certain direction. His thin lips morphed into a devious smirk, ”Feng Lingran is here. In the meanwhile prepare yourself. Master will take his leave first.”

Ah?

Xiao Xi heard the three words 'Feng Lingran', her heart almost skipped a beat in trepidation. Will he recognise that she was the little fox?

Xiao Xi did not expect that just as Feng Lingran came, a guard had hurriedly ran over to reported something, then he followed the guard away. Xiao Xi's heart rate returned to normal.

Was that not… the direction of Feng Lingran's courtyard?

Xiao Xi suddenly remembered the Yun Shaofu in his courtyard. Her heart felt unease. The guard was sent by Yun Shaofu, asking Feng Lingran to return to his courtyard.

Xiao Xi also walked towards the courtyard. She wanted to see, how would Feng Lingran treat Yun Shaofu, if he didn't refuse, then she… wouldn't follow him anymore. When the Regent's Palace have a Mistress, even if she had no face and skin, she would never go back.

Xiao Xi was smarter this time. She stood in a place where the guard could not see her and watched from afar as Feng Lingran entered the courtyard. She held the tree that hid her figure, as she stared unwaveringly at the window of the courtyard. She could vauging see Yun Shaofu sitting down, and only when she saw Feng Lingran going inside, did she rose from her crouched position and walked towards Feng Lingran's direction.

At that moment, Xiao Xi couldn't see Yun Shaofu's silhouette, she also couldn't hear their dialogues. She felt as if a cat was scratching her heart, why haven't Feng Lingran drive her out yet? Did he really accept Nanling Emperor's intentions?

Remember how she was supposed to be betrothed to FLR or smth.

Xiao Xi wanted to storm in, but thinking of her current appearance, even if she did, what could she do? If Feng Lingran couldn't recognise her, wouldn't she be humiliated then?

Not after a while, Yun Shaofu rushed out crying with her hands covering her face as she had suffered a great grievance.

The guard who stood at the door was dumbfounded. He didn't what to say to say to comfort Miss Yun.

”Feng Lingran, you're too much!” Yun Shaofu suddenly shouted at the open palace door, she turned and ran away crying.

Yun Shaofu just happened to run past Xiao Xi as she was leaving. Staring with reddened eyes, she watched the girl smile, as if laughing at her.
