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 211 Awkward Illness

Feng Yun went to look for Pei Jue in the barracks and encountered Ao Qi outside.

When she returned that day, the little auk was already waiting for her in the room. She had heard that Ao Qi had gone out to look for her, and he took care of the little auk for those two days. She initially wanted to find an opportunity to express her thanks, but one thing led to another, and she eventually forgot.

Upon seeing him, Feng Yun greeted with a smile.

"Xiaoqi."

Ao Qi looked up in response, his eyes lighting up unconsciously.

That day, Feng Yun went to offer sacrifices to the Liang. She dressed unusually dignified, looking more capable than usual, with less of a lazy and seductive air, but her skin seemed even better than before. The midday sun was high in the sky, and the sunlight that fell on her delicate face made her complexion appear almost luminous.

So close within reach, yet infinitely distant.
