Feng Wu decided to let the idiot go on.
Feng Liu gloated. “Hah, of course you don’t know what it is, because you’re not qualified to go! You can’t even be there! That’s so funny!”
Chaoge was so mad that she wanted to hit Feng Liu.
After her initial rage, Feng Wu had calmed down by now. She stopped Chaoge and let Feng Liu continue her performance.
“Are you done?” Feng Wu looked at her.
“Feng Wu, you don’t know what to say now, do you? Hahaha —” Feng Liu laughed in satisfaction.
Feng Wu then slammed the door shut.
Feng Liu and the others were shut out.
“Hey! Feng Wu! Open the door! How dare you shut me out?!” Feng Liu kicked the door in frustration.
However, the door wouldn’t budge no matter how hard she kicked.
Suddenly, a hush fell over the crowd…
Feng Liu turned around and almost jumped in fright, because an old woman was standing behind the crowd.
And that old woman was staring at her with a very grim look in her eyes.
“G- Granny Gong…” Feng Liu felt a chill run up her legs.
Granny Gong was only a chief maid when she was in the crown prince’s residence, but when she came outside…
All the noble ladies of the empire had to address her politely and show her no less respect than they showed Lady Northern Feng.
Therefore, when Granny Gong stood outside Fallen Star Yard with a grim face, Lady Wang tugged at Feng Liu’s sleeve to shut her up.
“Hm…”
Feng Liu swallowed. “Granny Gong…”
Granny Gong slowly walked up to Feng Liu, and suddenly smiled at her.
Feng Liu was elated.
Had she left a good impression on Granny Gong?
Oh god, if she could earn Granny Gong’s favor, her life would be so much easier!
Feng Liu was thrilled, but —
There was a crisp sound, and Feng Liu was slapped in the face by none other than Granny Gong herself.
“Granny Gong, you…”
Feng Liu was astonished and felt wronged.
The smile had vanished from Granny Gong’s face, and her eyes were colder than ice.
She stared at Feng Liu with her sharp gaze.
“Do you want to go on the winter hunt very much?”
Feng Liu said, “Granny Gong, actually…”
“You don’t have to bother preparing for it now!” Granny Gong said haughtily.
Feng Liu stared at Granny Gong in surprise.
Lady Wang realized what had happened, so she ran up to Granny Gong and tried to explain. “Granny Gong, Liu didn’t mean that. Actually…”
“No one in the Feng clan except for Feng Wu is allowed to go hunting this time!”
After that announcement, Granny Gong gave them an arrogant glance and said, “Now, get out of here.”
Feng Liu still tried to explain, but Lady Wang tugged at her to stop her.
After politely bidding Granny Gong farewell, Lady Wang took Feng Liu away.
Feng Liu wouldn’t accept it.
“Mother, what are you worried about? She’s just a nanny, and the chief maid of the crown prince’s residence at most. Why does she think she can control our clan…”
Smack!
Lady Wang slapped Feng Liu before she could finish.
“Shut up now, or you’ll incriminate the entire Feng clan!” Lady Wang had never been so mad at Feng Liu before.
