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 103: Yearning for Me As If Parched

Feng Yun looked at the scene before her in disbelief, wishing she could gouge her own eyes out.

Wasn't Chunyu Yan supposed to be tucked in bed when she left?

Why was it Pei Jue sitting there?

What kind of cursed body-swapping trick was this?

Pei Jue wasn't wearing his usual icy armor, but instead, a set of soft middle garments. He appeared a bit weary and lazy, as if he had just been rudely awakened from sleep. His stern face commanded respect without anger, and a cold glance was enough to freeze the people at the door.

He Qia, Feng Yun, a few servants, and those two women.

All frozen, dumbstruck.

Feng Yun didn't see Chunyu Yan and dared not ask.

Privately, she hoped that Chunyu Yan had escaped on his own while she had sent someone to invite He Qia over.

"What is the meaning of this continuous clamor outside?" Pei Jue asked.

Feeling the General's piercing gaze, He Qia's back tingled, and he almost wanted to kneel and kowtow several times.
