3065 Abashed
Sakurin had no idea that Lord Pan’s talented assassins had been swallowed up by the Sacred Imperial Spider before being spat out as bones.
“All Feng Wu knows is to brag about herself!” Sakurin smirked.
Feng Wu was speechless.
Mu Yan was glad to hear that.
“There’s something else…” Mu Yan finally got to the question she wanted to ask the most.
“I heard that Jun Linyuan…” Her tone softened when she mentioned that name. She paused a little before asking, “Is Jun Linyuan in love with Feng Wu?”
Sakurin almost jumped to her feet.
She stared at Mu Yan. “Please don’t tell jokes like that! It’s not funny!”
Mu Yan was surprised by her reaction.
Sakurin said angrily, “That’s impossible! Who told you that? It’s a malicious lie!”
Mu Yan asked, “Is that not the case?”
Sakurin said, “Of course not!
“You have no idea what Feng Wu is like…”
Feng Wu watched Sakurin curiously.
Sakurin made a displeased noise. “Feng Wu is willing to die for the crown prince; that’s how much she likes him!”
Feng Wu had been listening with her chin resting on her hands, but she was dumbfounded when she heard this.
No! I’m not! That’s not true! thought Feng Wu. She sat up and had “no” written all over her face.
However, Sakurin was so focused on slandering Feng Wu that she didn’t notice the look on the “boy’s” face.
Nor did Mu Yan notice Feng Wu’s reaction.
She was very pleased, but she still feigned a concerned tone. “Is that so? That’s a bit over the top.”
Sakurin said, “If the crown prince is in love with Feng Wu, I’ll chop my head off!”
Feng Wu blurted out, “Great!”
Her stomach lurched when she said that.
She wondered why she was confident enough to say that. Surely, His Royal Highness wasn’t…
Oh, no.
Feng Wu felt so abashed that she wanted to bury her face in her hands.
Sakurin and Mu Yan were surprised by her loud voice. They both turned around and glared at “Bu Jingyu.” “What can you possibly know about this subject? This isn’t a place for kids. Get lost.”
They pushed Feng Wu out of the room.
Feng Wu was speechless.
She looked back at Sakurin and Mu Yan and thought about the quickest way to form a friendship.
The best way was to find a common enemy and say bad things about the latter together.
With a common enemy, two people would soon become best friends.
Feng Wu was speechless.
That worked every single time.
Sakurin was much lower in status, but she and Mu Yan were holding hands now.
Feng Wu never thought she would contribute to their “friendship.”
There was nothing new about their conversation, so Feng Wu decided to leave them. She had much more important things to do.
She stood by the door and looked at the tree.
