章節 7: Retaliation
"Feng Zhiyao, your piccolo[1]! Qige, shouldn't you return the piccolo Feng Zhiyao gave to you!" Xuanyuan Lingxi took the jade piccolo from Feng Zhiqiong and waved it in front of Feng Zhiyao's face.
"Lingxi, but..." Feng Zhiqiong drooped her eyes, but they showed a glint of satisfaction, she was pretending to be sad for Feng Zhiyao.
"During the annulment of engagement, the return of engagement tokens are a must[2]" Xuanyuan Lingxi gave Feng Zhiqiong a leave-it-to-me expression.
"Lingxi ..." Xuanyuan Haofei had some slight anger on his face, everything about his sister was good, she was just very stubborn[3], he was not anxious, why is she more impatient than him?
"Okay, thank you Princess Lingxi, I will be taking this jade piccolo away!" Feng Zhiyao drooped her eyes, this jade piccolo represents the former Feng Zhiyao's love for Xuanyuan Haofei, she was tired of even looking at this heartless man. Therefore, upon taking the piccolo she was going to leave the room immediately with Ziyun.
"Ah? Are you not angry? Are you not sad? Are you..." Xuanyuan Lingxi just finished her sentence and she got a cold stare from her brother Xuanyuan Haofei, she was going to ask more, but she subconsciously shut her mouth.
"Since Princess Lingxi is so curious, I will answer you, I am very happy now, not at all the tiniest bit of sad! I have never been so happy before! Princess Lingxi, are you satisfied with my answer?" Feng Zhiyao looked at Xuanyuan Lingxi coldly, thinking to herself, this girl is an idiot, she was used by someone[4], and she didn't even know it!
Feng Zhiyao looked at Situ Yuelei who was engaged to Xuanyuan Lingxi, ah, she gave him a lot of[5], after he marries Xuanyuan Lingxi in the future, his days would be quite terrible!
It is said that after marrying the imperial princess, as her husband[6] he may not have any concubines!
Situ Yuelei did not understand why Feng Zhiyao was looking at him with pity in her eyes, he did not lose his parents, damn it. So Situ Yuelei gave Feng Zhiyao a black look.
However to the idiotic Xuanyuan Lingxi the stare meant that Feng Zhiyao was vying for her fiancé, "Feng Zhiyao, don't look at him!" Xuanyuan Lingxi went over to Feng Zhiyao and said in a tone that only the two of them could hear.
"Don't eh? Then you got to be careful, I hate people who threaten me." Feng Zhiyao lightly stepped over, maintaining her distance with Xuanyuan Lingxi, and lightly said under her breath[7], but Xuanyuan Lingxi heard it clearly and felt goosebumps coming up all over her body.
"Slut that no one wants!" As an imperial princess, this was Xuanyuan Lingxi's first time cursing people, clearly, she was angered by Feng Zhiyao's attitude.
Situ Yuelei creased his brows, although he did not like Xuanyuan Lingxi, she can't curse at Feng Zhiyao like that, she did not do anything bad to her.
Except for Feng Zhiqiong who was gloating, everyone else thought that Xuanyuan Lingxi was too much, as she teased Feng Zhiyao who had just finished annulling her engagement, it doesn't feel right.
"Oh? You said that I am wanted by no one right?" As Feng Zhiyao heard the words slut that no one wanted, her slender fingers inside her flowing sleeves rolled into a fist, damn it, she is a gold-class assassin under the internationally renowned assassin group Yesha, when was she ever insulted like that before?
Feng Zhiyao looked at Xuanyuan Lingxi without flinching, and spoke with an unyielding yet soft voice, mixed with a bit of coldness, "Are you sure you mean it? I, Feng Zhiyao, is not wanted by anyone?"
This is intolerable! But the other party is an imperial princess, if she kills her, it will bring trouble to the prime minister and his family, maybe their whole clan will be executed[8], never mind, let's just do something good.
Isn't Xuanyuan Lingxi in love with Situ Yuelei? Then she will make Situ Yuelei have a change of heart!
Punishing a person is not mercilessly killing him/her, but taking away the person or item that he/she cares the most about.
"Yes, you Feng Zhiyao are a woman who is unchaste and unwanted!" Xuanyuan Lingxi was given the cold eye by Feng Zhiyao, and all her pent up anger was used to shout back.
"Lingxi, she is my sister." Although Feng Zhiqiong was satisfied with the insults given by Xuanyuan Lingxi towards Feng Zhiyao, her beloved Xuanyuan Haofei was present too, so she had to pretend to be graceful and well-mannered.
Zhiqiong, you are so good, why do you have such a lousy sister? Hmpf! Feng Zhiyao, let me tell you, you are a woman that Qige doesn't want, which man would dare to go after you! Hahaha, it might be that you will never be wanted in this life!" Xuanyuan Lingxi's insults became more and more ridiculous.
"Lingxi, shut up! Be more of a lady!" Xuanyuan Haofei thought that Xuanyuan Lingxi was being too much and his face darkened, opening his mouth to stop her.
"Your Highness, watch your sister properly, don't let her bark like a dog everywhere! She really has no manners, so unladylike!" Her eyes were extremely cold, her every word satirizing Xuanyuan Lingxi as a barking dog.
"You... Feng Zhiyao..." Xuanyuan Haofei did not think that Feng Zhiyao was so good at talking, he could not even retort.
Ziyun was also scared of Feng Zhiyao's guts, what is wrong with Eldest Miss, didn't she always sucked it up whenever she met with this unruly princess?
"Qige, see! I am being bullied by Feng Zhiyao! Slut! She is a total slut! I am going to rip her mouth up..." Xuanyuan Lingxi's pretty face was filled with anger, she is a princess of imperial status, she's just a daughter of the prime minister how is she qualified to insult her like that, as a lowly dog of all animals!
This is too angering! If she doesn't fix her up, she Xuanyuan Lingxi will reverse her name around[9]!
Xuanyuan Lingxi thought that she had learned quite a bit of martial arts before you know it[10], she raised up her slender legs ready to kick Feng Zhiyao, her fingers curved into a claw shape, ready to grab on Feng Zhiyao's hair.
Feng Zhiyao pushed Ziyun to a safe corner, and went up front herself, letting herself get kicked by Xuanyuan Lingxi over to Situ Yuelei's chest.
Feng Zhiyao saw that her scheme had worked, although her thighs hurt, the pain was nothing to her who constantly put her life on the line[11].
"Wuhwuh, it hurts! Situ Gongzi! Your fiancée is very fierce! Wuhwuh..." Feng Zhiyao hugged Situ Yuelei tightly, her sweet-smelling head burrowed into Situ Yuelei's muscular chest, maybe she felt that her pitiful crying was not enough, she raised her tear-filled[12] face, looking at a very confused Situ Yuelei woefully.
Situ Yuelei bended his head down to see a teary flowery[13] face, and his heart melted, but he immediately remembered that she was here to annul her marriage with the Prince of Qi, how can he have skin contact with her[14], so he tried to push away Feng Zhiyao, but it was like she was very strong, the only thing he could do was frown.
"Lei Gege, how can you hug Feng Zhiyao like that... Put her down quick!" Xuanyuan Lingxi was dumbfounded, Situ Yuelei actually let himself be hugged by Feng Zhiyao like that, at this moment, Xuanyuan Lingxi felt that her world had collapsed.
"Eldest Miss..." Ziyun thought that Feng Zhiyao would have fainted from the kick, and was worried not knowing what to do. However after she saw her Eldest Miss giving her an everything-is-okay expression, she stunned, it's funny how Eldest Miss isn't in pain!
Xuanyuan Haofei's handsome face turned dark again after seeing sticking to Situ Yuelei like an octopus, he gritted his teeth so hard sound came out, they just broke their engagement and she has already went over to the arms of another man!
Wen Xingyuan was going to help Feng Zhiyao out, but he did not expect Feng Zhiyao to be so clever, his hand retracted back and nonchalantly flicked his large sleeves.
Su Muyan saw Feng Zhiyao hugging Situ Yuelei for dear life, and his eyes showed disgust and disdain, every bit of shock and surprise was blown off by this act of shamelessness.
Beitang Ziqian looked at Situ Yuelei blankly, he thought to himself, is Brother Situ[15] incapable of other expressions other than creasing his eyebrows?
Feng Zhiqiong saw Xuanyuan Lingxi looking like she was ready to cry, and immediately tried to persuade Feng Zhiyao, "Jiejie, Situ Gongzi is Princess Lingxi's fiancé, you can't do this, get down quick."
The most depressed was Situ Yuelei, he did not know what was with him, he could not get Feng Zhiyao off him no matter what, and Feng Zhiyao was like she had the strength of cows and tigers[16], the great strength is suffocating his handsome face into a red tomato.
Especially he was being hugged by a sweet smelling and squidgy girl, his nose could smell the special smell from her body, making him feel excited, after whiffing the smell for some time, his son started to rise up, what should he do?
All his friends are here! Especially that his fiancée is here too!
"Princess Lingxi, your Lei Gege likes hugging me, hoho... right? Situ Gongzi?" Feng Zhiyao's eyes were red, but there were no signs of her getting off Situ Yuelei's body.
"Situ Gongzi, if you dare to disagree with me, I will show your swollen thing to everyone..." Feng Zhiyao warned Situ Yuelei in a whisper.
Situ Yuelei became angry upon hearing that, his beautiful brows creased further into a straight line.
"Are you going to obey me! If not, I will not let you go, I am already unchaste anyway, but you will still need to marry that unruly princess!" Feng Zhiyao's back blocked everyone's vision just right, she stretched her finger and began to draw circles on Situ Yuelei's chest seductively.
Oh no, now Situ Yuelei is feeling extremely aroused, damn it, is Feng Zhiyao born to this world to give him bad luck?
"Lei Gege? Ha, what a sweet pet name, answer Princess Lingxi quick! Say you like hugging me! Or else!"
Haha, this girl knows what to say at the right time, upon hearing those words, Situ Yuelei nodded his head reluctantly to save his face.

章節 8: Top and Bottom
Not only did Xuanyuan Lingxi's fiancé Situ Yuelei not give her any face in front of so many people, he actually admitted that he likes Feng Zhiyao. H… how could she stand it?
"Lei Gege, tell me this isn't real! This isn't real!" Xuanyuan Lingxi's face was ready to burst into tears, like Lily in the wind, weak and delicate, bringing out the want to protect in those who saw her.
"Feng Zhiyao, come down quick!" A sinister glint appeared in his eyes as Xuanyuan Haofei saw Feng Zhiyao doing such a shameless act.
"Jiejie, listen to Hao Gege, get down please…" Feng Zhiqiong hurriedly tried to persuade Feng Zhiyao. She saw Xuanyuan Haofei's darkening face and was worried his wrath might be unleashed on the Prime Minister, therefore she spoke up.
"Feng Zhiqiong, that's your Hao Gege, not mine!" Feng Zhiyao coldly looked at Feng Zhiqiong.
"Lei Gege, she's a woman rejected by Qige, it is unbecoming of you to hug her like that!" Xuanyuan Lingxi cried. Actually deep down she wanted to pull Feng Zhiyao away and be the one to hug him like that in that position.
"Situ Gongzi, Princess Lingxi is right, Yao'er should go down after all." Since her motive has been achieved, and the show is over, she should make a graceful withdrawal.
"Feng Zhiyao finished her sentence and released her arms, ready to come down.
But Situ Yuelei creased his pointy eyebrows, and stretched out to clutch onto Feng Zhiyao's slender waist, "Messing with me and getting away scot-free? In your dreams!" He spoke
Damn it, he was extremely aroused by her soft and fragrant body, but she seems quite unaffected, just by shedding some tears she wants to leave this room, leaving him to suffer from an unbearable boner, this is so suffocating
"Don't you regret then!" Since Situ Yuelei wants to play, how could she let it pass[1]?
"Of course not!" He confidently replied Situ Yuelei won't regret anything.
"Lei Gege, You... You..." Xuanyuan Lingxi was infuriated to the point of being speechless.
"Situ Gongzi, I'm hungry, but suddenly I don't like the food at this restaurant, can you carry me to another one to eat?" Feng Zhiyao was satisfied seeing an agitated Xuanyuan Lingxi gritting her teeth and wanting to cry[2].
"Okay!" Situ Yuelei did not want to lose face in front of everyone, so he agreed.
"Ziyun, please return home with the driver, Situ Gongzi and I have some matters to discuss privately! I will think of ways to go home afterward!" Feng Zhiyao knew Situ Yuelei wouldn't let her off that easily, so she ordered her maid to go home first.
"Lingxi, this happened quite suddenly, I will explain to you later!" The engagement between the Situ clan and the imperial family must happen, Situ Yuelei cannot disregard Xuanyuan Lingxi too much.
"Lei Gege, what is it that you can't talk about here?" Xuanyuan Lingxi jealously looked at Feng Zhiyao who was freely playing with her hair, other than the tear marks on her beautiful white face, was an expression of anger.
"Yeah, Brother Situ, what is it you want to speak to Feng Zhiyao about? Why do you have to be so mysterious?" Wen Xingyuan felt uncomfortable without a reason when Feng Zhiyao hugged Situ Yuelei, seeing that the two of them are going to somewhere else alone he wanted to stop it.
"Yeah, Jiejie, what do you want to discuss with Situ Gongzi?" Feng Zhiqiong subtly laughed and voiced her doubt, secretly feeling disdain and scorn, she was dumped by Hao Gege, is it that she wants to climb onto another branch?
"It's a small matter." Feng Zhiyao looked at Situ Yuelei meaningfully and lightly answered.
"A private matter!" How could Situ Yuelei say the embarrassing situation that his little "Yuelei" was in, his unhappy and bright red face angrily looked at her.
"Do continue, I will explain when I am free!" Situ Yuelei immediately grabbed onto Feng Zhiyao as he finished and used qinggong[3] to leap out of the window.
Ziyun saw her mistress leaving and saw no need to stay, so she turned around and left. On the way home, she could not understand, when did her Eldest Miss have such a good relationship with Situ Gongzi?
"Lei Gege, don't you leave!" Xuanyuan Lingxi saw Situ Yuelei actually carrying Feng Zhiyao off, and burst into anger stamping her foot, throwing all of her noble poise away out of the nine clouds[4].
"Since Brother Situ has left, I should be going. My new store has some unfinished business needing to be taken care of, you may continue. Goodbye!" Seeing Situ Yuelei is gone, Wen Xingyuan got up and politely bade the Prince of Qi goodbye.
"Feng Zhiyao's change is really great haven't you all noticed?" Beitang Ziqian recovered his senses from the shocking events, the change in Feng Zhiyao was too great wasn't it?
"Mhmm!" Su Muyan got off his shock and gave a sound of agreement.
"Qige, what should I do now?" Xuanyuan Lingxi frustratedly walked back and forth while she asked Xuanyuan Haofei who was standing with his hands crossed behind, being deep in thought.
"Lingxi, your engagement to him is like the nails on a board, you don't have to worry!" Xuanyuan Haofei flicked his sister's silky black hair and comforted her.
On the way, Feng Zhiyao half-closed her eyes, not shocked or frightened, her breathing was steady, and at the end she fell asleep, making Situ Yuelei who was carrying her hate her more.
"Feng Zhiyao! Don't sleep!" Situ Yuelei felt his sexual urge has gone down a lot, so he shouted imposingly at her.
"Mhmm... You can continue... fly..." Feng Zhiyao spoke while still half-asleep.
"Speak, why did you hug me on purpose just now? Don't think I don't know what you are thinking! Woman, get up now..." Situ Yuelei saw there was a grass patch in front, and he was tired of carrying her, and was about to throw her on the ground, who knew that she was so perceptive, nimbly holding onto Situ Yuelei's neck.
"Trying to make me fall, you don't have that ability yet!" Feng Zhiyao coldly spoke.
"Okay I won't let you fall." Situ Yuelei gently laid her on the luscious grass.
His beautiful lips showed a sinister smile, he used his muscular body to lie on Feng Zhiyao's slender body, bending his head to kiss her neck, goosebumps popped up on her sensitive skin like a feather had passed through it, and her breathing increased.
"Situ Gongzi? Aren't you the future husband of the princess? Do you want to betray Princess Lingxi?" Feng Zhiyao was enjoying his skillful massaging when she suddenly held his naughty hands to stop them.
"That's a grave accusation[5]! Don't ever talk about this again!"
"Also you made me fire up just now, how could I ever let you go!" Situ Yuelei is not an easygoing person[6], he finally found a foxy lady who could strike up his little "Yuelei", how could he just let her go?
"Really? So even the patriarch of the second clan is at my feet[7]! Ho ho ho..." Feng Zhiyao laughed heartily, showing all her graces, her fingers tracing the outlines of his hands, making Situ Yuelei very enticed.
"Brother Situ, what are you doing?" Wen Xingyuan came running after them using Taxuewuheng[8], and was just behind. Seeing Feng Zhiyao laughing with Situ Yuelei like a flower in the sun, his heart sank and wanted to just throw Situ Yuelei into a ditch nearby.
Situ Yuelei was shocked when Wen Xingyuan suddenly jumped down, he guessed that Wen Xingyuan must have been following them for quite long, but why did he want to follow them?
"Why did Brother Wen follow us here?" Situ Yuelei was still lying on Feng Zhiyao, but how could Feng Zhiyao let him have the advantage? She exerted force and flipped around, now she became was on top of him instead, making Situ Yuelei smack his lips, and Wen Xingyuan who was the outsider grit his teeth jealously.
"I'm just passing by!" Wen Xingyuan lightly smiled, his face featured like the mountains on an ink painting, graceful and calm, with unparalleled beauty, elegant and refined, a man as beautiful as the jades of Kunlun Mountains.
Feng Zhiyao looked and looked, her mouth uncontrollably watered, what a beautiful man! But under these circumstances, it is very hard for her to manage!
Damn woman, she is lusting for that guy? And at that distance! Not sure what was wrong with Situ Yuelei, when he saw saliva dripping from Feng Zhiyao at the sight of Wen Xingyuan, feelings of jealousy crept into his heart. Out of rage, in front of his best friend Wen Xingyuan, he stuck out his tongue and gave Feng Zhiyao a French kiss, licking away the saliva from the corner of her mouth...
