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 100: Cloak of Sentiments

Weng Li lived near the docks of Shiguan County, and everyone on the street knew him as a man of clear and honest stature.

Feng Yun handed over the portrait and the note to Weng Li, along with some money and fabric as a token of gratitude.

After handing over the items, Weng Li spoke with confidence.

"Miss, just wait for the good news from me."

After discussing the details of the pickup and delivery, Feng Yun thanked Weng Li repeatedly before taking her leave to return to Huaxi Village, directly immersing herself into the agricultural tool workshop.

The newly opened workshop was busy with more people, more work, and consequently more chatter.

Some who couldn't get a job at the workshop would grumble and gossip behind the scenes.

Sometimes, Alou and Xiaoman would relay some of these rumors to Feng Yun.

When they praised her, she didn't show any sign of pleasure.

When they spoke ill of her, she didn't show anger either.
