Feng Yiran was so disappointed in his sister. Had it not been for all these people here, he would have given Feng Liu a lecture, jabbing his finger in her forehead. How could she not see that this was a rare opportunity to impress the crown prince? She was so stupid!
Jun Linyuan glanced at Fairy Muyao's plate, which Fairy Muyao didn't notice.
But, when Jun Linyuan's glance flickered round to Feng Liu —
Feng Liu's heart raced and her cheeks flushed! Involuntarily, she played with a lock of loose hair and was too shy to look up.
Feng Xun and the others devoured everything like wolves, and the nine dishes were simply not enough. Soon, all that was left was the chili oil on the plates.
"Are you really not going to eat that?" Feng Xun stared at Fairy Muyao's plate.
Fairy Muyao had barely shaken her head when, with a whoosh, the pork fillet was in Feng Xun's mouth.
"And you don't want it either?" Feng Xun asked Feng Liu.
Feng Liu didn't know what to say. It was just a piece of meat. Why was Young Lord Feng so… He was the young lord of a noble family and a prominent figure in the imperial capital! Why was he behaving like this?
"Yes or no?!" Feng Xun asked impatiently.
Feng Liu finally came back to herself and shook her head right away. "No —"
However, no sooner had she said that word when Xuan Yi's chopsticks arrived, taking that piece of pork fillet.
"Xuan. Yi!" Feng Xun wanted to punch the guy in the face!
Xuan Yi shrugged and slowly chewed on the meat, further irritating Feng Xun.
Fairy Muyao couldn't take it anymore. "It was just a piece of meat and this was just another meal! Why are you people like this?"
"You won't understand!" Feng Xun rolled his eyes at her impatiently.
Fairy Muyao indeed didn't understand… Why did she get the feeling that Feng Xun despised her?
Seeing the satiated faces around the table, Feng Wu prompted them in her head: You're all fed now, so get moving! Don't just sit here! She still had her Immortal Spiritual Fruit to work on!
Feng Xun noticed Feng Wu's gaze and snapped, "What are you looking at?"
Preoccupied with her Immortal Spiritual Fruit juice, Feng Wu replied without thinking, "I'm waiting for you people to leave."
Feng Wu shocked herself as soon as she said that. Gosh! What had she said?!
How could she have spoken her mind?! Shit! She was practically shooing them away! Would Jun Linyuan kill her for saying that?!
As expected, Feng Xun was taken by surprise and so was everyone else…
Feng Wu was at a loss for words. What should she do now? What could she do to make up for it? She was still a useless girl, she couldn't afford to offend these young lords yet!
However, to Feng Wu's surprise, Feng Xun nodded and smiled in a suggestive manner. "Tsk, tsk, tsk. Little Feng Wu, you two-faced woman! Finally, some truth from you!"
Feng Wu was dumbfounded. "… What did I say?"
"If you don't want Boss Jun to leave, just say so. We won't understand if you say it so indirectly." Feng Xun's smile was full of innuendo and he was ready for some major gossip.
Feng Wu was crying "no" in her head and secretly begging them to leave. She really needed to start on that Nine Transformation Spirit Restoration Pill now…
Hence, the look on her face was rather conflicted.
Feng Xun took it as evidence that he had seen through Feng Wu and he gloated. "I was right. You do have a crush on our Boss Jun. You dishonest woman. Try to cover that up now!"
Feng Wu took a deep breath, clenched her fists, and tried her best to restrain herself.
Wiping his mouth clean, Feng Xun rose to his feet, went up to Feng Wu, and patted her on the shoulder. "Gosh, why are you so shy about it? Girls have crushes on Boss Jun all the time. You'd be an oddball if you didn't. Moreover, you two are eng…"
"Ahem!" Jun Linyuan raise a fist to his mouth and cleared his throat.
Feng Xun took the hint right away. He turned and darted a glance at Jun Linyuan.
Very clever, Boss Jun! By not telling Feng Wu about the engagement, he had the option to marry her, but could still sign the annulment papers if he decided not to. He had the upper hand – it was brilliant!
Feng Wu had no choice but to plead with Feng Xun. "So… when are you guys leaving?"
Feng Xun glanced at the empty plates and realized that if they left now, he might never have another chance to have something this delicious again… No, he wouldn't have it. He had to think of an excuse to stay!
Darting a contemptuous glance at Feng Wu, Feng Xun said, "Since you're begging for us to stay, we'll…"
Just then, footsteps came from outside.
The old steward of the Feng clan arrived. After looking at Feng Wu and Feng Yiran in turn… he went up to Feng Wu in the end and whispered something in her ear.
Before Feng Wu could say anything, Feng Xiaoqi cried out and jumped to his feet. "What? The mayor's here?! He's not making trouble for us again, is he?!"
Feng Xun frowned. "Isn't Bi Yunfei the mayor of Northern Border City? Isn't Old Bi a good-tempered chap? Why would he make things difficult for you?"
Feng Xiaoqi rolled his eyes. "Of course he's nice to you. You're a young lord! To us, he's anything but nice. He's been trying to marry my sister to that retarded son of his!"
"Xiaoqi!" Feng Wu chided.
"What?!" That displeased Feng Xun right away! Who would cook for him if little Feng Wu here was married off to some guy? Would he have to come all the way to the mayor's manor if he wanted to enjoy Feng Wu's cooking? That would be bestowing too big a favor on Bi Yunfei!
Feng Wu sighed inwardly.
She had thought that she could happily move on to her Nine Transformation Spirit Restoration Pill after the meal, but things just kept coming up and she couldn't do anything to stop them… Had she known that things would turn out this way, Feng Wu would never have cooked in the first place.
Feng Wu waved at the steward. "Let the mayor know that we're entertaining some respected guests here and this isn't a good time for him to visit. Tell him to go back —"
Feng Yiran frowned and cut her off. "Feng Wu, you can't just send the mayor away without consulting me!"
Feng Wu frowned at Feng Yiran.
Feng Yiran snorted. "I invited the honorable mayor of Northern Border City here myself. He's paying this special visit because the crown prince is here. You can't see the man even if you wanted to on any other day. How dare you refuse him!"
