When she had fallen face down in the mud earlier on, didn’t she hear someone snickering at her?
That was the face and the pair of eyes she spotted.
Yu Mingye crouched down in front of Feng Wu. Resting his chin on his right hand, he examined her up and down with an undisguised look of contempt in his eyes.
Feng Wu hummed loudly.
“Oh, right —” Only then did Yu Mingye realize that Feng Wu was immobilized. He then poked Feng Wu twice in the chest with a long finger.
“Phew.” Feng Wu could move freely right away.
She threw a fit at the teenager with the amorous eyes. “Who are you? Why did you bring me here? What do you want from me?!”
Yu Mingye had steeled himself to accept this ugly girl as his woman. Still crouching and resting his chin on his hands, he stared at Feng Wu with his clear amorous eyes, which was a rather adorable picture. Feng Wu was suddenly at a loss over what to say.
“I’ll give you a chance to guess who I am.” Yu Mingye winked at Feng Wu in a flirtatious way.
Feng Wu’s mind raced. All of a sudden, her eyes lit up and she gave him a mysterious smile. “Will you let me go if I guess right?”
“Do you think that’s possible?” Yu Mingye poked Feng Wu’s cheek. “Take a guess now or I’ll have to kill you.”
Feng Wu threw him a dirty look, ignoring his threat.
Yu Mingye chuckled at the slight.
He had just been ignored by an ordinary girl. That was a first!
“Aren’t you afraid of death?” Yu Mingye was intrigued by the girl. All else aside, the fact that she was able to maintain her composure after being kidnapped was reason enough for him to think of her in a different light. Her ordinary face looked slightly more pleasant now.
Feng Wu said in resignation, “You’re not going to kill me.”
“What makes you so sure about that?” Yu Mingye asked curiously.
Feng Wu rolled her eyes. “You snatched me in the middle of the night just to bring me out here to kill me? Why bother?”
That made Yu Mingye think even more highly of Feng Wu.
Despite her ordinary appearance, one couldn’t help but admire her courage. Sigh , if it wasn’t for her plain-looking face, he might actually like her.
Her temperament was quite his cup of tea.
“I see you’re a very smart girl, no wonder Jun Linyuan treats you differently.” Yu Mingye darted a glance at Feng Wu, half-smiling. “But, the other girl was telling the truth back there. Jun Linyuan will never marry you!”
Feng Wu was speechless.
“It’s true. Trust me. Everyone says that the royal family canceled Jun Linyuan’s betrothal to the Feng family, but that’s not the case. Feng Wu is still your crown prince’s future wife.” Yu Mingye tried to cast a bone between Feng Wu and Jun Linyuan.
Feng Wu looked up at the sky and said in resignation, “You really don’t need to remind me of that again…”
She had been informed once when Feng Xun had been talking to Jun Linyuan. Why did this guy have to repeat it? Feng Wu was so frustrated that she looked distraught.
Seeing the look on Feng Wu’s face, Yu Mingye thought that she was heartbroken by the news, so he went on with his alienation attempt. “What do you see in Jun Linyuan anyway? He still has this ambiguous relationship with that Feng the Fifth girl, and that Zuo Qingluan has had her eye on him for a very long time. Look at how ordinary you are. Even if he’s nice to you now, he still won’t marry you.”
Feng Wu was speechless.
“Look at me! Look —” Yu Mingye raised Feng Wu’s chin with both hands and blinked at her as his amorous eyes shone. “Look, aren’t I handsome? Aren’t I as good-looking as Jun Linyuan?”
Feng Wu smacked her forehead. Dude… are you an idiot or something?
