C242 (1/2)

Feng Ye raised his bow and shot the first arrow. The crowd immediately burst into cheers as it hit the target right in the center!

Then, with a bang, he shot the second arrow. Unfortunately, it had missed its target's position by a bit.

That always extremely cold-blooded face flashed through Feng Qianyue's mind. Taking advantage of the moment when Feng Ye was shooting, he put down his bow and arrows and prepared to leave this place with the young maid.

”Fourth Prince, where are you going? You got the top spot and left first, what's the point of this competition?” Just as he took a step forward, Feng Yunzheng called out to him. Turning his head, he saw a message from Feng Yunzheng's gaze; he did not want him to leave.

Then …

No.

He was leaving.

Thinking this, he smiled faintly and said, ”Ninth Royal Brother, I'll be right back. If the first place is mine, then it's natural that I won't be able to leave. The people from the Xiao family keep their word.”

A trace of regret flashed through Feng Yunzheng's eyes as he said, ”What a pity.”

What a pity! What's a pity? Feng Qianyue sneered in his heart, then followed behind the servant girl and left.

Inside the pavilion.

With a nervous heart, Uncle Huang gingerly opened the door of the room in the middle and walked in. A pair of muddy eyes looked around, and in the end, his gaze landed on that luxurious rosewood screen. Through the screen, he saw a shadow swaying behind him, and a hand was placed on the screen.

His feet stopped, his hands couldn't help but tremble, and his muddy eyes struggled a bit, but even Shiya's warning sounded in his ears, and also the two pieces of silver in his shabby jacket bag. These were at least two years' worth of wages, enough to pay for his wife's medicine.

In the end, that was only the phrase, one should not commit suicide! Therefore, he made up his mind …

He hurriedly opened his coat while pushing open the screen like a hungry wolf that had been forced into a corner. When he saw who the person behind the screen was, he was shocked and immediately stopped...

He saw a girl with a cold expression, standing in front of him in perfect condition. Before he could even blink, a hand had struck the back of his neck and he hadn't even had the time to scream before he fell to the ground.

Then, the 'Yama Minamiya' turned around and respectfully bowed her head in front of the young girl with eyes as cold as water.

Lian Yueyue was still wearing her dress, which had been soaked by the soup.

Leng Mei asked in a low voice, ”Eldest Miss, what should we do next?”

Lian Ruyue looked back and saw Xiao Rou lying on the bed. She was unconscious.

When everyone's attention was focused on hunting in the back garden, Leng Mei sneaked into Xiao Rou's room and knocked her out with a single palm strike. She then carried Xiao Rou on her back before walking out from the Yi Cui Courtyard's back door and climbing over the wall into the pavilion.

Lian Ruyue looked at Xiao Rou who was lying on the bed. Perhaps she had been acting conservatively recently, but she had lost a lot of weight. Her originally plump and smooth face was now sunken in both cheeks.

She coldly ordered, ”Take off her clothes!”

”Yes.” Leng Mei stepped forward and quickly took off Xiao Rou's clothes, leaving only her undergarment and underpants. Normally, with her dress covering her legs, she was not that scary. However, now that she had taken off her skirt and looked at her legs, one of her pants was empty, shriveled, and devoid of anything. Her broken knee had become round and bare.

Lian Ru Yue coldly looked at her. It seemed that Xiao Rou was in a miserable state right now, but she didn't have the slightest bit of sympathy for her …

All of this was because she was the one who had sought it out!
