Chương 41: Beauty In the Lake

The guards exchanged looks. They had heard all kinds of weird requests before so such wasn't foreign to them. A guard obliged with a smile. "Go then, don't fall."

"Thanks," Meng Fuyao bowed. As she passed the guards, she flicked her fingers, causing both to instantly collapse to the ground.

"Wow, Zhangsun Wuji, you taught them really well, I'm impressed… how obedient of them," muttered Meng Fuyao. Not spotting any other guards close by, Meng Fuyao quickly reached the top of the rockery, not casting the prince's hall a second glance.

Under the vast sky, her body could be seen jumping forward with her arms out, and into the pond.

"Freestyle! Here I come!"

Still, in midair, she flicked her fingers, and a broadleaf flew out, brushing across the water surface. With a flip of her body, she landed lightly on the leaf, on the tip of a foot.

Only a fool would jump into the water on a cold day like that.
