Feng Wu's Denial

Suddenly, a burst of rapid footsteps came from outside.

Seeing the bunch of people charge in, Feng Yiran was dumbfounded.

He had been upset about Jun Linyuan's departure and was angry at Feng Wu for ruining this rare opportunity of playing up to the crown prince.

Feng Yiran and Feng Liu had been about to get even with Feng Wu when the crown prince returned with the others.

That was such a pleasant surprise for Feng Yiran, but before he could say anything, Feng Xun rushed into the house without stopping for a second!

Jun Linyuan and Xuan Yi also headed directly for the middle court without giving the brother and sister another glance.

Feng Yiran and Feng Liu exchange baffled looks. What was going on? Had Feng Wu pissed off Young Lord Feng after offending Jun Linyuan?

Feng Liu was as worried as she was infuriated. Clenching her fists, she said, "That Feng Wu is such a troublemaker!"

Feng Yiran didn't make any comments, but was thinking the same thing.

There was no time to complain, though. The two of them had no choice but to run after the team in a hurry.

Hence, just when the family of three was ready to start their feast, they heard quick footsteps, and with a loud bang, the door to their courtyard was kicked open!

Frightened, the beautiful lady and Feng Xiaoqi almost jumped to their feet.

Feng Wu ran to her mother's and brother's sides as they blanched from the fright, and she shielded them behind her. Narrowing her eyes, she stared sharply in the direction of the noise!

As a result, Feng Xun looked right into Feng Wu's eyes as soon as he stepped in.

His heart skipped a beat for a second!

Those eyes… those eyes were so familiar! He must have seen them somewhere before!

Feng Xun searched his memories, but the idea faded as quickly as it had struck him. He couldn't recall where he had seen them, however hard he tried.

Feng Wu stared at the teenagers in astonishment.

Shit! Th- they came back?!

What the heck?!

Seeing Feng Xun's shocked face, Feng Wu knew that things were turning south for her.

Because she had been cooking, she had long changed out of that grand outfit and was now wearing a plain dress.

That exquisite phoenix hairpin was also gone, together with the full face of makeup.

Barefaced, Feng Wu looked as natural as a spring breeze. She didn't look any less beautiful, and if anything, it only gave her a down-to-earth vibe that made her more attractive.

Feng Xun pointed at Feng Wu. "You – you…"

Look at those sharp eyes and her rolled-up sleeves! Where was that dull beauty a moment ago? Where was she?

Feng Wu hadn't changed a bit after five years!

"Feng Wu! You tricked us!" Feng Xun went up to Feng Wu and glared at her in an aggressive manner!

His face was livid and his eyes spat fire, for he felt like he had been played for a fool.

"Huh?" Feng Wu put on an innocent face. "What trick?"

Feng Xun smirked. "Stop pretending already! Are you telling me that you weren't acting just then?!"

Feng Wu asked innocently, "What makes you say that?"

"You can't fool me now! Weren't you pretending to be his dull beauty? Do that again, I dare you!" Feng Xun was fuming!

God knew how disappointed he had been when he saw that lifeless, pedantic Feng Wu.

Feng Wu, on the other hand, was never going to admit her guilt.
