章 93: What Do You Think of Feng Wu?

編集者: Henyee Translations

Feng Yiran left in a hurry before Feng Wu could say anything. To him, the mayor was a superior figure.

"Little Feng Wu." Feng Xun poked Feng Wu in the head.

"What?" Rubbing her forehead where Feng Xun had just jabbed her with his finger, Feng Wu glared at Feng Xun with her clear, pretty eyes.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk —" Feng Xun pursed his lips. "That's so not like you. Back then, Feng Yiran used to hang on your every word. You just let him treat you like that now? You're not mad?"

Feng Wu rolled her eyes, irritated. "… Aren't you people ever going to leave?"

Feng Xun gloated. "We were going to leave after that meal, but this is getting more and more interesting. How can we leave now? Hahaha —"

Feng Wu smacked her forehead. Turning around, she met Jun Linyuan's brooding eyes… before she knew it, her back went stiff.

For some unknown reason, despite how daring Feng Wu was, whenever Jun Linyuan turned those enigmatic eyes on her, she couldn't help but cringe a little.

Seeing that Feng Wu had turned away from him, Feng Xun was bored again. He poked her with a finger, then poked her again.

"What?" Feng Wu snapped and threw a dirty look at Feng Xun.

"Is it true? Bi Yunfei wants to make you his daughter-in-law?" Feng Xun asked curiously.

Feng Wu took a deep breath.

Just then, Feng Yiran showed a smiling Mayor Bi into the courtyard.

The mayor appeared to be an amiable middle-aged man. He had nice features and was smiling broadly; he seemed to give off a completely harmless air.

However, Feng Xun pursed his lips.

To be able to rule a city, especially one on the border like Northern Border City, Bi Yunfei had to be so much more than he appeared.

As expected, Bi Yunfei went up to them and saluted Jun Linyuan deferentially.

Jun Linyuan sat in the host seat with an impassive face, paying little attention to the all-smiling Mayor Bi.

No one found Jun Linyuan arrogant, for he had always been like that.

Mayor Bi then greeted Feng Xun. "Young Lord Feng, it has been a while since we last met in the imperial capital. The last time I saw you, you were only seven. You're already a grown-up now."

Feng Xun looked the mayor up and down, examining the latter closely.

Mayor Bi was a little jittery at Feng Xun's searching look. "Young Lord… have I displeased you in some way?"

Feng Xun rubbed his chin and asked unhurriedly, "I was told that Mayor Bi has a son."

Mayor Bi's stomach lurched. His son had a condition: he had been born with cerebral palsy and his intelligence remained at the level of a five-year-old. However, the young man's favorite was pretty girls, and he couldn't eat without one at the table. Hence, the mayor had had his eye on Feng Wu.

Mayor Bi looked from Jun Linyuan to Feng Wu.

Back then, the entire continent had been informed of the engagement between Jun Linyuan and Feng Wu. Later, the incident with Feng Wu also became public knowledge. Everyone knew that both the royal family and the crown prince himself had given up on Feng Wu.

Mayor Bi then saw Jun Linyuan staring at Feng Wu furiously, which delighted him!

He had chosen to visit today not only to ingratiate himself with the crown prince, but also to sound out Jun Linyuan's reaction, so that he could decide whether or not to force Feng Wu to marry his son later.

Judging from the look on the crown prince's face, he abhorred Feng Wu…

Mayor Bi smiled broadly at that thought. "That's right, I do have a son. Unfortunately, he still isn't married and it's been bothering me. His well-being is my biggest concern."

Feng Xun gave him a half-smile. "What do you think of Feng Wu?"

章 94: Congratulations, Sister

編集者: Henyee Translations

What do you think of Feng Wu?

Everyone looked at Feng Xun in astonishment at those words!

Jun Linyuan's eyes turned a few shades darker!

The mayor's eyes lit up!

He was here today to get confirmation from Jun Linyuan. If the crown prince didn't care about Feng Wu, he would marry the pretty girl to his retarded son right away.

Feng Yiran was glad to hear it!

Northern Border City was the Feng clan's last resort, for this was where the clan was initially founded. Therefore, the Feng clan had always tried to form an alliance with the mayor of the city.

One of the purposes for Feng Yiran's trip here was to make friends with the mayor.

Feng Yiran smiled. "Xiaowu? Was Young Lord Feng recommending Xiaowu to Xiaodong, the mayor's son? You know what, their names put together sound quite catchy. That's a great sign!"

Feng Liu had always hated Feng Wu and found the latter a threat to her. Obviously she knew about the retarded son of the mayor, and the news delighted her. "Bi Liangdong, right? I've heard of him. They say that he's quite a handsome man. Why, Sister, congratulations."

They were going to make the marriage happen just like that.

Mayor Bi had been a little concerned before coming here. After all, Feng Wu used to be engaged to Jun Linyuan, and the mayor would be in a difficult spot if the crown prince still held some resentment. Hence, the mayor had been keeping an eye on Jun Linyuan this whole time.

The crown prince was as distant and unfathomable as ever. His face betrayed nothing…

Feng Xun had always acted as Jun Linyuan's spokesperson. When he said that, it had to mean that Jun Linyuan didn't care at all!

Mayor Bi said with a smile immediately, "Am I right to assume that everyone here is happy about the marriage proposal?"

"Of course!" Feng Yiran replied instantly. "That's great news! No one will say no to that! Since we're all here, why don't we draw up the marriage contract now?"

Jun Linyuan's eyes were as black as bottomless pools.

Mayor Bi laughed wholeheartedly. "Aren't we rushing things a little here? Shouldn't we send a message to the imperial capital and ask the chief's opinion?"

The current chief of the Feng clan was Feng Huanyu, Feng Wu's eldest uncle and Feng Yiran's father.

Putting an arm around Mayor Bi's shoulder, Feng Yiran smiled broadly. "There's no need for that. I'm her eldest brother, which is as good as a father. I'm qualified enough to plan the marriage for her. Moreover, His Royal Highness is here today, and it will be a great honor to have His Royal Highness as a witness!"

Mayor Bi was over the moon at the suggestion!

Feng Yiran knew him too well!

He would have nothing to worry about if Jun Linyuan signed the contract as a witness. His retarded son had talked about Feng Wu nonstop ever since he laid eyes on her. If it were up to Mayor Bi, he would marry Feng Wu to his son right this moment.

"Great! Congratulations, Sister —" Feng Liu took Feng Wu's hands, unable to control her excitement.

Feng Wu smirked inwardly. Did these people really think she was going to do as told?

Before she could say anything, Feng Xun interjected with a snort. "Wait."
