novelAll Gethered at Xiangman Tower
| ← Ch.134 | Ch.136 → |
"Who is unsatisfied?" Mo Xuetong held her hand back from his and glanced at him. How dare him to say such misleading words... However, she didn't argue with him, "Will you be found here?"
He was King Xuan who had been hurt and sent into the mansion of the monarch to recover himself, but he was now enjoying the fireworks with her. If it was found out, it would bring her big trouble. Besides, before she passed out, she seemed to have heard him give an order. The more she got along with him, the more complicated she found he was.
This was really the eighth prince who was said to be randy and completely useless?
No matter how others thought about it, she wouldn't believe it. There had been four men in black who were skilled at kung fu but he dealt with it without effortlessly. If it hadn't been for saving her, his hand wouldn't have been hurt. He had such great kung fu and a stable state of mind... Those were all so different from who he used to be.
Who was the real him? Maybe those were all different aspects of him. Her eyes fell onto his extremely beautiful and charming face and thought there was no one that could be compared with him except for Sir Bai, Bai Yihao, who was so bright and handsome!
But the feeling he gave her was so similar to that of Bai Yihao, and the evilness and capriciousness of Feng Yuran were so dangerous!
She tried to recall the fight over the imperial throne in her last life, but she couldn't remember anything because she had been in Sima Lingyun's backyard and had got no information of the outside world! Now thinking carefully, she realized how pathetic she had been. As the main wife of His Excellency in Duke's manor, she just had a few maids who she could trust, and there was no one to tell her what had happened outside. It felt like she was locked in there, however, she had thought that her life was perfect.
Lying, humiliating, slandering and framing... She had been in such a horrible situation without even realizing it and had stepped into chasm gradually!
"Don't worry, they have plenty of things to deal with in the manor. I was hurt and passed out, and who would want to see me?" His lazy voice brought Mo Xuetong's wandering mind back. She looked at the sky full of stars and felt quite blank. However, she came back quickly, putting her dejected mood away, and started to deal with what's with Feng Yuran.
"It wouldn't matter if the servants from manors come to see you, but if it were King Chu or King Yan who comes to see you and find no one there, how would you cover up for yourself?" Mo Xuetong smiled beautifully and reached over to put down Feng Yuran's hand, which was about to get another cup of wine, "You Highness got hurt and should drink less wine."
"You're caring about me?" Feng Yuran tried to get Mo Xuetong's hand but she slipped. There was happiness in his beautiful eyes and he poured a cup of tea for himself. Then he just glanced at Mo Xuetong and asked banteringly.
He was such a strange person and asked those useless things while ignoring things that mattered. Her face flushed at his word. She glared at him with shyness and anger, and said angrily, "Your Highness..."
"Relax, my two elder brothers are very busy today. Did you just see my biggest brother hanging out with second young miss in Ling Manor? It is said that my third brother grew up with the second young miss in Ling Manor and they have a close friendship!" Feng Yuran blinked his eyes at her and said lazily. His beautiful face looked bright and charming in the light of the lamp and fireworks.
That meant he had had a plan? But when he was with her, she hadn't seen him giving any order except for the time when he asked Feng Yue to find that sir Li. Maybe he had already arranged it earlier. Mo Xuetong looked at him confusedly, but he didn't seem to be talking nonsense.
"What? You don't believe me? Or why do you think I took you here? The thing that happened to your elder sister was no big deal, but the one that will happen next is worth to remember forever." Seeing her sit there in a trance, Feng Yuran felt very glad. And it didn't matter what expression was on her face, as long as it's not fake. He liked her being who she really was.
The minute he met her, he thought she was very interesting. She was such a little girl with an extremely beautiful face, while her bright eyes were pure like water. Though she was dressed in maids' clothes, she didn't look like a maid with her elegant behaviors at all. She hid herself in the dark passage, and her face was so pale and weak as if she would pass out in a moment. However, she didn't give up, and the stubbornness and endurance made him stop involuntarily...
He shook his head and controlled his heartbeat.
Feng Yuran stood up with an evil smile and said something to the people by the door. The people by the door carried two big robes here instantly. Feng Yuran took it over and took it to Mo Xuetong and naturally wrapped it around her. Then he carefully tied the belts and put on the hood for her.
Thus she was all covered in the robe. Then he dressed himself in a robe and put on the hood too. Those robes were not luxuriant but rather normal. There were plenty of people dressed in robes on the street, so their clothes were quite common. He held Mo Xuetong's hand and walked out.
"Where are we going?" Seeing him act mysteriously, Mo Xuetong pulled her robe and asked.
"To see a great play!" Feng Yuran lifted his eyebrows and scratched in the middle of her hand, which made her itch. She wanted to get off his hand, but they had walked downstairs where there were many people. She was ashamed to do that in front of so many people, so she just let him hold her hand. If she did something at the moment, she would be the focus in others' eyes, which was the least she wanted.
Feng Yuran must know her concerns so he dared to act so fearlessly!
When he was on something serious, he was still so casual!
"Get out of my way." That they didn't want to flaunt didn't mean others had the same idea. If Feng Yuran hadn't held her in his arms tightly, those people who rushed upstairs would have knocked her down.
There were many people walking up or down. In the front was a servant who was dressed luxuriantly and had a terrible voice. If it's not for his sharp voice, no one would notice him. In the middle of them was a young man dressed in a blue robe. There were patterns of clouds sewed in silver thread on the blue robe, and a jade belt in royal blue by his waist. The jade crown on his head made him elegant and handsome. Though there was not much expression on his face, his eyes revealed anger and evil.
Then when a few people came upstairs, the servant ahead knocked them aside with no concerns and said obediently, "Master, watch out and don't get tripped."
Under such circumstance, everyone knew that they must be famous and rich and didn't dare to mind their attitudes. Especially, those two strong men who were standing behind them with something bulging on their waists couldn't be easily offended.
Several people who were nearly knocked down just stared in anger and didn't dare to do anything.
The third room on the left across to the stairs was suddenly opened and a teenager in white walked out and glanced at the crowds. He stepped backward and let them go through. A smile appeared on his handsome face, and his black eyes shone with glamor, which showed his insights and elegance.
Mo Xuetong just lifted her eyes to look at the crowds rushing upwards. When she blinked her eyes and met those gently smiling eyes, she got surprised and her face turned pale. She lowered her head subconsciously and escaped from those eyes which seemed to have looked through her heart. She instantly threw herself into Feng Yuran's arms.
Sensing Mo Xuetong's strange behavior, Feng Yuran looked in her direction and found the teenager in white. He just glanced at him shortly and patted her back as a comfort.
"Who is so arrogant in the capital and pushed you down? Sir, how is your wife now?" Another servant who was almost pushed down held the handrail, turned around and asked Feng Yuran with care.
The girl in Feng Yuran's arms was shaking and obviously shocked!
"It's okay, she'll be fine after a little rest." Feng Yuran's voice sounded like a cautious youth. He pulled and hugged Mo Xuetong, and slowly walked downstairs. He patted on Mo Xuetong's back constantly and was afraid that she got shocked. They were dressed in heavy clothes because they were going out. Their clothes were also quite normal and looked just like average guests.
This time they were walking out, in the opposite direction of that crowd.
From the tall tower, Bai Yihao stopped looking at Mo Xuetong, and his gentle eyes were fixed on the crowd who were passing them. He had a gentle smile by his lips and waved his hand. Then a beautiful maid walked out of the room that he had just left and placed a fragrant tea on the tray.
His eyes darkened suddenly.
Mo Xuetong didn't dare to look back. She didn't expect to see Bai Yihao here when Feng Yuran said there was a great play. When it came to who brought her the biggest stress in the world, it was Bai Yihao. Once she thought of his merits and achievements last life and how he killed so many people in a moment when standing gently in front of so many soldiers and generals, she felt scared.
His crown was reddened by so much blood!
Although he had helped her a few times and saved her life last time when she was ill. Every time they met, he seemed gentle and handsome except for the last time when his intention of killing was completely revealed in his eyes. So gradually Mo Xuetong forgot his legendary in last life, which was an immortal myth.
But just then, Mo Xuetong felt his intention of killing again. His smile was so elegant that one could feel his charm and grace in such a distance. But at the moment Mo Xuetong sensitively felt the coldness in his elegant eyes.
His eyes were smiling, but the smile was distant and only contained extreme coldness.
Seeing Bai Yihao in this way made Mo Xuetong remember those rumors about him in last life and wanted to escape from his eyes.
In order to avoid making any mistakes and ruining Feng Yuran's plan, she just threw herself into Feng Yuran's arms and acted as she was frightened by the crowd.
They went downstairs and walked out and there had already been a carriage waiting for them. Feng Yuran held Mo Xuetong and helped her into the carriage. Then he let go of her and took the hood off her. She was flushed and looked stuffed. There was even a little sweat on her pretty face, and she panted as if she was scared and stuffed, looking so cute. He smiled at these and naturally loosened the lace on her neck.
"Where are we going? Did you say we were going to see a play?" Mo Xuetong panted heavily for breath, feeling the carriage was on its way and asked curiously. She had heard Feng Yuran mentioned King Chu and King Yan over and over again. The play must have something to do with them. But she had heard that King Chu Feng Yuxuan had reserved a private room here, so why didn't they stay there to watch but came down?
