C40 cardiopulmonary failure (1/2)
Returning Phoenix Hall sunk into silence. In truth, this sort of situation was more than suitable for them to fight.
Although Shangguan Wan was not a gentleman, she still insisted on the principle of not making a move, so she was the first to speak: ”What is the Imperial Advisor thinking?”
In truth, this question was a waste. As someone who knew magic, he was also an Imperial Advisor. Now that he had met a Fey, he naturally wanted to retrieve a Fey.
Qin Fei's answer was intriguing. ”This humble subject is thinking about how far the emperor has treated you.”
Shangguan Wan didn't understand what she had pulled on Nangong Yu for.
”To tell the Empress the truth, His Majesty instructed this humble subject to let you off.” This sentence caused a certain woman's heart to freeze.
Actually, she should have known that Nangong Yu knew about this. Back at the Thousand-Life Palace, that cat demon had already made it so clear. How could he not be suspicious of her?
However, when she heard it from Qin Fei, she would still be surprised and slightly touched.
”So?” she asked him quietly, putting away everything that had to do with uneasiness.
Qin Fei's black eyes were calm as he replied, ”Actually, even if the Emperor didn't say so, I wouldn't have done anything to you.”
Only then did Shangguan Wan's hanging heart relax, she could finally catch her breath. If Qin Fei wanted to deal with her, then she would have definitely suffered a crushing defeat, that was for sure.
However, she didn't understand.
Just as he was about to ask, Qin Fei was recalling something else. ”Does the Empress Dowager think I can't do anything if the empress dowager's eyes have been infected for a long time?”
With his reminder, Shangguan Wan recalled that she could cure the disease with her own strength, but Qin Fei was more likely to do so.
For a moment, she didn't know what he was up to, but whether or not those with strength would beat around the bush, she asked, ”Then what does the Imperial Advisor mean?”
Qin Fei laughed contemptuously. This fox was actually a bit foolish.
”What I meant was that I only know how to do what I'm willing to do.”
Shangguan Wan was speechless, this man was really arrogant.
But from this sentence, she could hear two meanings.
First of all, the empress dowager had an eye ailment earlier. It wasn't that Nangong Yu hadn't requested the Imperial Advisor to treat her. It was just that this audacious Qin Fei had refused, which was why he had the chance. Deep down, Qin Fei did not even put the royal family in his eyes.
Second, this proud and conceited man really did things his own way. As for the empress dowager's illness, he would never treat it no matter what. He would never accept a demoness like her. Alright, she had a very good character.
But there was a person with an unfathomable personality who was very annoying at times. No wonder he was unique within the imperial court. It was indeed very difficult to get close to this sort of person.
Qin Fei turned around. He was about to leave, but he left a sentence behind, ”Empress, take care.”
Shangguan Wan smiled brilliantly. As long as he did not make an enemy out of her, she would definitely take care of herself. Otherwise, if she provoked him anywhere, wouldn't that mean she would die?
