Reborn: Femme Fatale First Daughter (PART 2)

Chapter 217-218

Chapter 217: A Scheme, the Banquet Held by Princess Royal

Mo Xuetong got up late in the morning and could still feel the pain in her head. She leaned on a cushion but couldn't recall when she fell asleep last night. The quilt was placed meticulously on her without any sign of wrinkles. Could it be Feng Yuran...

How could he be such a caring person? Mo Xuetong laughed at her own guess.

Hearing her getting up, Mo Lan pulled up the curtain and tucked it behind the hooks aside, which was decorated with jade-like stone. "Do you want to get up?" Mo Ye held the wash supplies.

Mo Xuetong held Mo Lan's hand and got up. At ordinary times, Mo Yu was always the first one appearing by her bedside. "Where is Mo Yu?"

Mo Lan burst into a laugh. "Miss, don't look for her now. Yesterday she tried to get me drunk, but she drank even more herself. She was still drunk and hasn't wakened up." Last night, Mo Yu urged them to drink, but she couldn't drink too much herself. Therefore, she also got herself drunk and hadn't wakened up until now.

Mo Xuetong heard the words and also smiled brightly.

Mo Lan helped Mo Xuetong to the dressing table and said smilingly, "Miss, please get up quickly. Don't forget we have to go to Princess Royal's manor. It won't be good to be late."

Mo Xuetong was blank for a while before she remembered there was such a thing indeed. Days ago, Princess Royal especially left a message to invite her. Now, she recounted and found the date was today.

Mo Ye, who was making the bed, suddenly asked, "Miss, what's this? It's so beautiful!" She took out a pair of hairpins under the pillow. There seemed to be nature flowing on the light green hairpins. And the jade tassels behind were inlaid with white pearls. On top of it, they were inlaid with several red diamonds which were placed among the green color. It looked so beautiful!

Those sword-shaped hairpins were changed into this?

Mo Xuetong hesitated for a while and recognized that those were the ones they got last time when she went out with Feng Yuran. Then she somehow felt that the hairpins were too conspicuous and she couldn't let anyone find that she had the pair of hairpins. So she asked Feng Yuran to help to change and decorate them.

However, against her expectation, he made them so beautiful. If she hadn't had a deep impression of the hairpins, she couldn't tell what they used to be like.

The sheath of the sword had been changed into the body of the hairpin, which was more beautiful than before. No one had expected that the sword would get out of the sheath with a little tap on the bloom.

"From now on, you can take these hairpins along with you when you're dealing with the royalty. It's necessary to have a weapon to protect yourself. Now I can't always show up by your side, so you must be careful." By her ears came a lazy voice as if a handsome man were gently fondling her long hair...

Her delicate face instantly turned red. She bit her lips and didn't dare to look at her pink cheeks in the bronze mirror which looked as if they were covered with rouge.

She pretended to be casual and said, "It was found out at my mother's place. They were so pretty so I put it away. Take them over and help me put them on." She said it was her mother's dowry. These days, Mo Huawen took out the key to the little warehouse and gave it to Mo Xuetong. And Mo Xuetong actually picked something out of it, so it did sound reasonable.

But the flush on her face couldn't be hidden. So she just lowered her head and pretended to fiddle with the pearl ornaments on the table.

Mo Lan looked at Mo Xuetong confusedly, not knowing why she was so bashful.
