Bab 117: The Torture (1)

"No… but she is maintaining her stance that it was Feng Xinying who wanted to murder you and that she only tried to foil her plan."

"I will come there in an hour."

Xie Yuansheng went to see Feng Xinying in her room after changing his clothes and found that she wasn't there. Worried, he went out. He heard some noises coming from the kitchen. He rushed down to the kitchen to stop the catastrophe that was about to happen.

"Today I will cook the lamp chops," Feng Xinying was ordering everyone around. The chefs over there were looking at her feeling helpless. Lu Boyun was chiding everyone as usual if they didn't follow her order.

"Get me thyme, garlic and rosemary," she ordered flexing a knife at the servants.

Xie Yuansheng came inside the kitchen and was very disturbed. "Feng Xinying, you are not well. Please go back to bed and we can eat later."
