Feng Wu stole a glance at the others out of the corner of her eye after her greeting, and was very pleased by the astonishment on their faces.
The girl in front of them was the polar opposite of the Feng Xiaowu they met in Frozen Forest. Even if they might have somehow suspected her before, they shouldn't now.
Feng Xun rubbed his eyes, then rubbed them again.
He was scared by what he saw.
What the hell? Was this the lively Feng Wu they knew from five years ago?
"What happened to you in these five years? What turned you into this girl… I don't understand." Feng Xun stared at Feng Wu, then began to walk around her in circles, examining her closely.
Feng Wu clenched her fists, but kept her face as stiff as a dull beauty should. She saluted at the others and said, "As the daughter of a respectable family, I really shouldn't be meeting any outsiders. Now, if you will excuse me."
After that, Feng Wu bowed, her slim figure swaying a little in the wind, and was ready to take her leave.
"You're not going anywhere!" Feng Xun grabbed Feng Wu by her sleeve.
Feng Wu could feel an intense gaze on her right hand, which seem to prick the skin. Jun Linyuan was observing her!
Caught between Jun Linyuan's and Feng Xun's attention, Feng Wu took a deep breath. She had to put on a convincing act, otherwise she would be paying a very big price.
Looking up, Feng Wu stared at Feng Xun with glistening eyes, her tone flat and emotionless. "Young Lord, it's improper for men and women to touch hands. If Your Grace insists on behaving like this, I will have no choice but to crack my head open on the iron column over there to defend my virtue."
That successfully scared Feng Xun off and he let go of her hand immediately.
However, he still stared at Feng Wu; it was just that he looked displeased now. Frowning, he murmured to himself, "Can five years change a person so much?"
He still remembered that unrestrained Feng Wu when they fought each other back then. She never hesitated to kick him in the groin!
But now, she wouldn't stop all this formal address and she knelt down all the time. It was so upsetting. Feng Xun even began to suspect that a different soul was living in that body now. How could she have become such a boring girl?
Feng Wu bowed at Feng Xun again.
Feng Xun waved his hand in vexation. "Keep still and don't bow again! You're not a maid-servant, what's with all these humble moves? I'm so frustrated with you!"
As the saying went, the higher the expectation, the bigger the disappointment.
In Feng Xun's memory, Feng Wu had always been an aloof yet lively girl, who was as brilliant as the morning sun. Who was this prude in front of him now?
Hence, Feng Xun flipped his sleeves and turned around grumpily. He seemed to be angry with himself as much as with her.
Seeing Feng Wu like this, Xuan Yi frowned as well, looking utterly disappointed.
Fairy Muyao, who had been astonished by Feng Wu's beauty, was elated to see how boring the girl turned out to be.
Hahaha, Feng Wu, what a waste of that stunning face of yours. That's such an off-putting personality! What good will your beauty do you?!
Feng Yiran and Feng Liu exchanged looks. This was strange. Feng Wu had been all pushy and overbearing a moment ago… What was going on here?
