d subconsciously."Why are you so scared Do you think I'm going to eat you" Qian Tingxuan frowned secretly. Was he a beast Why did she always guard against him like he was a thief"Then just talk, why a..."But, Father, I... I and Brother Sichen are already betrothed, and we're to be married soon..."

"I will explain this matter to Emperor Lan Zhao myself, and cancel the marriage between you two. As a saint of Tianzhu, you can only marry someone from the Tianzhu royal family," Feng Wuji said firmly.

"But..." Xiao Yu Fu hesitated, wanting to speak but stopping herself. Finally, she gritted her teeth and said it: "But, I... I have already consummated my marriage with Brother Sicheng..."

“What did you say” Feng Wuji instantly flared, his eyes widening in fury as he slapped Xiao Yufu across the face with a resounding slap. “You are not yet married to him! How can you degrade yourself so shamelessly It is truly an embarrassment to this King and the Kingdom of Tianzhu!”

Thinking of how she bullied Ge'er, he had long wanted to avenge Ge'er, but he just didn't have an excuse. Now that a legitimate excuse has finally arrived, why not take advantage of it!

"I..." Xiao Yufu was slapped, her eyes filled with stars and her cheeks burning with pain. She said aggrievedly, "Father, it was an accident! Someone drugged me..."

"Is the wind silent or is your anger still not abated In my Tianzhu, what women value most is chastity. If people knew that the Holy Maiden of our Tianzhu Kingdom was...you are making this King's face go where!"

"Father..." Xiao Yufu wanted to explain, but before she could utter a word, Feng Wuji cut her off.

"Enough!" Feng Wuji slammed his fist on the table: "Go down and prepare your dance. I don't want to see you now!" If it weren't for Ge'er still holding a grudge and refusing to acknowledge him, needing her to help unravel it, he wouldn't even glance at this woman who was so cunning.

"Yes! Fu Rong takes her leave!" Xiao Yu Fu retreated with a heart full of grievances.

Stepping out the door, she touched her burning cheeks. Her tear-filled eyes, filled with grievance, slowly turned venomous: if it weren't for revenge against Xiao Yuge, she wouldn't have suffered this indignity!

Gritting her teeth: One day, she would make Xiao Yuge pay for all this pain!

But she didn't regret saying it. She knew that since she had taken on Xiao Yuge's identity, Feng Wuji would definitely take her back to Tianzhu as some kind of saintess. That way, it would be almost impossible for her to marry Brother Sicheng.

Now she has let Feng Wujie know that she has lost her virginity to Sichun brother. Even for face, Feng Wujie will have the Emperor decree Sichun brother to marry her. Then, even if Sichun brother is unwilling, he must marry her.

Furthermore, having the wind and stillness as her support, the emperor wouldn't allow her to become a concubine for Si Chen. She was pleased with her own clever scheme, but she hadn't anticipated that some things are beyond her control.

"An Ling, are all the things ready" Xiao Yu Fu knew that if she wanted to win back Si Chen gege's heart, she had to dance enchantingly at the emperor's birthday celebration. She had to leave a good impression on both the emperor and the empress.

"My lady, when I was just taking inventory, I found that the ribbons were missing. Perhaps I forgot to collect them when we left the manor," An Ling said cautiously.

"No ribbon left, then let's go buy some." Strangely, Xiao Yufu didn't get angry this time, but instead offered to buy them herself.

Perhaps she hadn't been out for a while, after buying the ribbon, Xiao Yufu planned to browse around some more. Unexpectedly, at this moment, there was a sudden commotion on the street, and the sound of hurried horses' hooves came!

"Get out of the way! The horse is spooked!" A shout rang out, and in an instant, a horse galloped wildly towards them!

"Ah!" Seeing that she was about to crash into Xiao Yufu, she was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she froze in place. In an instant, her mind flashed with the image of herself being trampled by a horse, covered in wounds!

Suddenly a big hand clasped her, then with a lift of her body she was carried away from there. A man's voice followed: "Miss, are you alright"

There was no expected pain, Xiao Yufu opened her eyes in shock, and she noticed that she had been saved by a man in blue. Realizing she was still in the man's arms, she instinctively retreated: "Thank you, sir, for saving my life!"

The man in blue only then saw Xiao Yufu's appearance clearly, but he couldn't help but be stunned: there was such a beautiful woman in the world!

At this moment, he heard his own frantic heartbeat, like stars falling into the deep night sky, stirring endless ripples in his heart. He finally understood what was meant by love at first sight in the book. This was it! The feeling of love at first sight!

"Lady, are you alright" An Ling came back to her senses and nervously checked on her mistress for injuries.

“I’m fine...” Xiao Yufu lightly shook her head and thanked the man in blue once again: “Thank you, sir!” Seeing the man staring at her, she instinctively avoided his gaze, thinking to herself: How could someone stare at people like that, it’s so rude!

The man in blue only then came to his senses, realizing his rudeness. His pale face was instantly flushed with a blush, and he waved his hands in a flustered manner: "Miss, you're too polite. It was just a small effort!"

"An Ling, let's go," Xiao Yu Fu didn't want to linger any longer, nor did she want to have too much interaction with the stranger. After a slight nod, she turned and left with An Ling.

The man in blue stared at her retreating figure, a joyful expression evident in his eyes.

"Ganger, what are you looking at" a soft and kind voice came from beside him.

"Mother!" The man in blue finally turned back with a smile.

A woman with an air of elegance, dressed in fine attire and radiating nobility, approached gracefully. Following her gaze, she smiled gently: "Are you admiring a certain young lady" Indeed, a mother knows her child best.

"Mother..." The man in blue scratched his head a little embarrassedly, then glanced in the direction where Xiao Yufu and the others had left.

“Looking at that back, she must be a pretty little thing. With so many girls in Jinzhou, you couldn't find one to your liking, but now that you've come to the capital, you've set your sights on her. It seems the mountains and rivers of this city truly nurture beauty.” The woman smiled with crinkled eyes, radiating kindness and warmth.

"Mother, I don't even know if she's been promised to anyone yet." The young man in blue fidgeted and kicked at the stones on the ground.

"Looking at her attire, she must be a noblewoman from the capital. In two days, it will be your imperial uncle's birthday banquet. It is said that around this time every year, noblewomen from the capital would perform for your imperial uncle to celebrate his birthday. When you see her again, if she hasn't been promised to anyone, and if you like her, your mother will ask your imperial uncle for a favor and arrange for you to be married!"

"Thank you, Mother!" the blue-clad man exclaimed with the joy of a child.

"Alright, let's go. Don't keep your father waiting."

"Um." The man in blue hurried forward to support the woman. "Mother, be careful of the stones underfoot..."ters for over ten years. No matter what, they must have some feelings for each other.It's a shame...“Lord Wencheng, don’t threaten me with her. She stole my fiancé from me! I don't even care about the...
