Reborn: Femme Fatale First Daughter Chapter 137 – Xuetong Watched Stealthily in the Dark and was Shocked

Chapter 137 Xuetong Watched Stealthily in the Dark and was Shocked

Maybe it’s for the warm air inside the room or the hot atmosphere, her face flushed greatly even if she got dressed into such flimsy clothes. Under the lamp, the stunning clothes added to her beauty. From Feng Yuxuan’s angle, she was pretty like a rose and was very attractive.

“A beauty has a face like rose, and her eyebrows are like willow leaves. I have only read it in books before, but can’t imagine I really see one in the real world. I’m so lucky!” Feng Yuxuan looked at her gently. Though his smile was gentle and soft, he looked at Ling Fengyan carefully with his shining eyes in astonishment. Even if it was not so obvious, Ling Fengyan saw it all clearly and felt happy.

“Thank you for your praise and gift, which I like for sue. It’s a pity that I lost the lantern you gave me. I’ve never seen such a beautiful lantern before, and it was even won by Your Highness. You could get an answer to such a difficult riddle, therefore, everyone in the palace knows that you’re talented. If you hadn’t been polite to King Xuan and given the answer to the riddle first, we wouldn’t have taken so much trouble.” Ling Fengyan raised her head and looked at Feng Yuxuan, saying smilingly. There were coquetry and adoration in her eyes.

Her words not only showed her admiration far Feng Yuxuan but also told the fact that when Feng Yuxuan and Feng Yuran were guessing the riddles, Feng Yuxuan didn’t act so well in order to be friendly to his brother. Therefore, he let his younger brother win and choose a present first.

Such words were most useful in leaving a good impression, which didn’t distort the fact or flatter. She just told the truth with some proper changes. Besides, she looked at him with admiration and looked very attractive, which would bring out the feeling of pity in men.

However, except for her gentle words which contained love, Ling Fengyan didn’t do anything more. She just sat there orderly, held her handkerchief and said gently. There was deep love in her elegance, which was the perfect expression of a woman having affections towards a man while behaving herself accordingly.

Of course, Ling Fengyan didn’t throw herself on him as the Queen who was also her aunt told her. Although the queen’s position was quite attractive and she wanted to get it. But she can’t do that now because she was not sure who would be His Majesty at last. Whether it would be King Chu or King Yan, she couldn’t behave imprudently before everything had come to a final conclusion.

Feng Yuxuan was pretty good, but Feng Yulei still had a chance. And Queen’s meaning made her even more uncomfortable. She just wanted to keep her own status and never really helped anyone. She was not so selfless that she would sacrifice herself for Feng Yulei.

She understood the Queen’s intention, which was for her to tempt Feng Yuxuan and become the woman of King Chu first. Then she could serve her while standing by Feng Yuxuan and become her scout for Queen at King Chu Manor. Thus she could help Feng Yulei to win. The Queen also promised her that once Feng Yulei successfully took the throne, she would still be the one Feng Yulei loved most and had the greatest power in the harem.

Ling Fengyan just coldly laughed at these words!

When Feng Yulei got the position, even if he didn’t care she was the woman of his enemy, others wouldn’t easily let her go. For a woman who had married and lost her virginity, even though she could get into his harem because of their relations, her existence would be unspeakable. She would live with the words that she was taken by force from the elder brother to the younger brother.

Therefore, Ling Fengyan wouldn’t take the risk easily. She was only willing to stand by the one who would win at last, and watch the other girls being stupid! She had followed Queen’s order and hung out with Feng Yuxuan. Besides, she also got dressed in this beautiful flimsy clothes Queen had prepared for her. But she didn’t plan to tempt Feng Yuxuan here or do anything to let others find out, which would make Feng Yuxuan have to marry her!

She was so smart that she wouldn’t let herself get trapped in such circumstance! She just wanted Feng Yuxuan’s heart. Once both Feng Yuxuan and Feng Yulei had her in mind, she could plan for her next step on her own. No matter who would win at last, she would be the next queen. Therefore, she showed her deep love on one hand, but on the other hand, she acted gently, and wouldn’t let Feng Yuxuan look down on her, not to mention own her at the moment.

No one would cherish those which were easily got!

“It’s indeed a pity that the lantern broke, but I make lanterns myself when I have time. Next time when I’m free, I’ll make another like this one…” Feng Yuxuan smiled and looked at her white wrist. Something suddenly flashed through his eyes. The beads on her wrist were the ones that Feng Yuran won in the first round of the match. Under the lamp, the droplets shone with glamor and highlighted Ling Fengyan’s white pure skin of her hand. It was beautiful like a dream, which seemed familiar, like someone’s bright eyes.

A pair of beautiful charming eyes appeared on his mind. Feng Yuxuan clenched his fists under the sleeves and felt doubtful. It’s impossible! It was said that something horrible happened at Mo Manor and they even weren’t in the mood for the lunar year together. She was just a little girl in the harem and couldn’t have come out!

There must be something wrong with it!

“I’m so lucky and grateful to have the lantern made by Your Highness, but Your Highness really shouldn’t. I know that you care for me, but I can’t trouble you to make a lantern for me! Your Highness has a noble status and is so busy. I can’t trouble you over such a small thing. So please take your command back.” Ling Fengyan lowered her head and felt happy when she thought about the emotions in his words. Then she said with shyness.

It was emotional and polite!

“How can I break my promise? Now that I promised you, I would spare time to do it no matter how busy I will be. If Yaner really feels apologetic, just give me this, okay?” Feng Yuxuan squinted his eyes and looked at her with a gentle smile. Then he slowly reached to a perfume sachet hanging to her waist and pulled it to him.

They stood close to each other because of the sachet. From Mo Xuetong’s view through the open window, their figures seemed to be overlapped. Even if it was in the dark, her beautiful face reddened. She bit her lip, leaned over and didn’t dare to watch carefully.

“Feng Yulei is coming.” She heard Feng Yuran’s complacent laughter.

Mo Xuetong involuntarily turned around. Before she could see it clearly, she heard someone breaking into the room with a loud noise. The angry person stood at the door was King Yan Feng Yulei.

“King Yan saw his beloved girl alone with King Chu. Would it really cause a fight?” Mo Xuetong trembled as she got shocked by the loud noise. Her brows twitched in panic and she asked in a low voice.

Of course she didn’t care about whether King Yan and King Chu would fight or not. But if they did, it would cause big trouble. And if they brought it to Emperor Zongwen, Feng Yuran might be found out and then she might be in trouble too. She sneaked out secretly. If she was found here, Auntie Fang and her daughter might attack her with it. Her effort would all be in vain for the accusation of disgracing the harem.

“Are you afraid?” In the moonlight, Mo Xuetong saw Feng Yuran smiling at her with lifted eyebrows.

Afraid? Of course she was afraid. But looking at his aggressive expression, Mo Xuetong felt angry and guilty, and her face suddenly flushed. Since it was dark and his attention was on the opposite, she was not afraid that he could see her expression. She just turned around and looked out of the window, groaned a bit as an expression of disdain which refuted Feng Yuran’s words.

Only her flushing face showed her fragility.

Now that Feng Yuran’s attention was on the other side. Looking through, although Feng Yulei suddenly appeared angrily, he didn’t act intemperately. He didn’t seem to be foolish. Of course he was not. Those who could survive safely in the palace were all not foolish at all.

Emperor Zongwen had so many sons, but only few of them survived. None of them was innocent and couldn’t be judged from their appearance, especially the one beside her.

Feng Yulei’s attendants stepped out and closed the door. The table was cleared and the three of them all talked and laughed, which revealed no sign of Feng Yulei’s anger a moment ago. That was the end of it? Mo Xuetong felt astonished. But it was so distant that she could only see them but not hear them. Turning around, she saw Feng Yuran lost in deep thought.

“You can hear them?” She thought it over and asked.

“Eh!” Feng Yuran turned his head and hesitated. Then he saw the confusion on her face and looked at them on the other side. Sensing what she had in mind, he smiled evilly and asked lazily, “Are you wondering what they are talking about?”

“Yes, yes.” Mo Xuetong nodded her head and her face was full of eagerness.

“But I just asked you to watch the play and didn’t ask you to listen to it. Is this something extra?” Feng Yuran’s words made her smile frozen and made Mo Xuetong who was so smart speechless. She just felt extremely furious.

Only to watch, not to listen! How could he say it like that!

“If you really want to know, I can’t resist the request from Tong’er. Maybe you can reward me by sewing a sachet for me?” He just came up with the idea from what Feng Yuxuan’s behavior. But Feng Yuxuan clearly didn’t get it. When Feng Yulei broke in, Feng Yuxuan’s hand was by Ling Fengyan’s waist and they stood so close to each other. It looked very dubious. He really admired his third brother Feng Yulei at this aspect.

It was indeed his famous third brother. He could still smile when such a thing happened. He just let the attendants go out and walked up to Feng Yuxuan smilingly, “I find you at last. I kicked the door open because I heard nothing inside and thought something bad had happened.” He explained the whole process with such simple words.

“You…” He asked for a sachet from a girl who hadn’t been married. She wondered what strange idea he had in mind, and her emotions changed from anger to caution. She didn’t know what to say and looked to the opposite. But she just saw three people smiling peacefully, which was so dull like a dumb show.

She just turned around and didn’t look at them anymore.

“Okay, you owe me now!” In the darkness, Feng Yuran said to himself smilingly. Although Mo Xuetong couldn’t see his expression, she knew he was complacent. He was so happy that he tricked her successfully? She sat aside, uplifted her lips and said nothing. Now he could see nothing in the darkness, so she didn’t have to pretend to be happy.
