The Slender Waist

The day the city fell, Feng Yun was treated by her father as a spoil of war and presented to the enemy general. Everyone pitied her, soon to be a captive, plunging into a fiery pit. Yet she veiled the little donkey cart that took her out of the city tightly, daring not to let anyone see the secret delight in her heart… As a child, she behaved oddly and spoke startling words, once predicting a war in which the whole army was wiped out, nearly being burned to death by her clan as a demon. When she grew up, her beauty was out of the world, but she was rejected by her husband's family. In the period of chaos and disorder everywhewe, where could a female captive go? "I do not seek a devoted partner to grow old with; I merely wish to rule unrivaled in this life." In her previous life, Feng Yun was always the one being scorned by others; in this life, she decided to strike first, turning the tables on each and every one of them, those so-called unreachable flowers and beasts in gentleman's clothing, those degenerates… all to be scorned in return.

Chapter 180 You and I Are In Love

Feng Yun knew that Wen Xingsu still had some unresolved issues but didn't point them out. After detaining him for a brief conversation, she finally let him leave.

While she was talking to Wen Xingsu, Pei Jue just sat there in silence, holding a cup of tea, seemingly drinking yet not. His expression was unreadable, and he did not interrupt.

Once Wen Xingsu had left, there were no others in the room.

Feng Yun let out a yawn, looking somewhat tired.

"Did the General come by last night? I was asleep, but Xiaoman mentioned it."

Pei Jue hummed in acknowledgement, suddenly putting down his teacup, and from somewhere, he produced a packet of rock honey and handed it to Feng Yun.

The rock honey from Xinzhou was quite famous. She took it and sniffed; the thick scent of sugarcane and chrysanthemum mixed with the sweetness of honey was evident.

Feng Yun smiled at him, "Why did you buy this? I'm not a child."
