[COMPLETE] Beauty Feng Vol. 1

Chapter 67: Spoiled Plaything

I was editing this earlier morning, but I forgot to post lmao

It was a long and boring discussion but Feng Yanyan wasn't allowed to go anywhere without Wangye's presence.

At one point, the King asked for a folding screen to be set up behind so Beauty Feng could rest.

Head Mo agreed and snapped his fingers once again. But this time, Feng Yanyan couldn't be amazed anymore. He was busy hiding his sleepiness.

After getting a place of his own, even though it was just a screen away, he immediately fell asleep. It was good that he didn't have a snoring habit. That would be embarrassing.

This amount of consideration...

Mo Quan took everything in and elevated his appraisal of the beauty. The gentleman wasn't even a concubine but the King spoiled him to this degree.

Was this really just a plaything?

It was absurd.

The discussions continued even amidst these thoughts. He didn't need to worry about his daughter being harmed in his own territory.

He knew the King enough to expect that she wouldn't do anything suspicious as long as it would benefit her. In addition to that, this mansion housed all the men that he could station just for Wan Li's visit.

Her Highness might be a white tiger but this time, she entered the hyena's den. Suliang's King wasn't a fool to blindly attack, right?

Mo Quan might think that he hid his thoughts properly but Long Xu Le was aware.

After all, she wasn't a clueless young girl. The King knew what others would think about every action of hers. Even her own shifu was raising a brow. Madam Lian must be really curious too.

Then why did Wan Li Wang continue to indulge Feng Yanyan? Was this still in the bounds of keeping the promise with Old Master Feng?

No.

Long Xu Le gave her word. His name would be cleared in Suliang and he would be free to choose whoever he wanted to be with.

It was both her Highness' gratitude and personal wish. Many things would happen in the future but until then, she would make sure to protect Feng Yanyan and bring him back to the Feng family.

By that time, she could also meet Old Master Feng for old times' sake.

Besides, there were other selfish reasons...

Long Xu Le wasn't benevolent. Every action had a clear intention and she was never one to be swept or dictated by emotions. Her Highness lowered her gaze to hide her calculations. 

Half past noon, the discussion about the wedding preparations ended. It was mostly just Madam Lian and Head Mo talking with the King stating her opinions from time to time.

Her Highness rose from her seat and called. "Feng Yanyan."

There was no answer. The King stilled. Did he... fall asleep?

Judging from that man's personality, it wasn't far off if he slept when other people were doing something serious just a few paces away from him.

Even Long Xu Le was wondering how Empress Yao tolerated this attitude.

From her side, Madam Lian only watched her disciple. She chuckled. The child looked like a husband waiting for his wife. The shifu found Long Xu Le amusing when it came to this Beauty Feng.
