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 185: The Adulterous Husband's Tea Ceremony

Pine nut candy got stuck in Chunyu Yan's throat, almost costing him his life. When Pei Jue released his grip, Chunyu Yan, covering his neck, coughed for a long time before he finally caught his breath, his face flushed as he looked up.

"Why are you so angry, brother? If even a mere woman can maintain her composure and not hold it against me, yet you, a Great General, be shamed and vexed over a pine nut candy. Laughable indeed! Cough... cough cough..."

It clearly wasn't about the candy.

He feigned ignorance.

Feng Yun lowered her eyes, reining in her expression, very obedient in front of Pei Jue. She was now undertaking a big job to earn money under Pei Jue and couldn't afford to offend him.

"General, would you like some tea?"

Pei Jue made a sound of agreement.

Feng Yun went to pick up the tea cup, then remembered that she had poured it all over Chunyu Yan's head earlier, so she glanced at Pei Jue apologetically.
