“Then don’t forget that she’s my disciple. If you want to get hostile, I’m not scared of you.” Gu Bailu was infuriated. “What did Qian’er ever do to you? She saved your woman for you, but you torture her like this? Is this how someone like you shows gratitude?”
Lu Fenying looked at the food on the table. “Let’s eat. The food is getting cold.”
He ignored her aggression and she got really angry.
Gu Bailu laughed in fury. “Are you unwilling to let go of Qian’er because you love her?”
Lu Fenying suddenly froze and looked at Gu Bailu gloomily. “Would I fall in love with a slave? You better watch your mouth.”
“If that’s not the case, why do you keep Qian’er around? After you cure Su Muwei, she’s worthless. You’re keeping her not because you’re unwilling to cut her loose, but because you, the noble crown prince of Heavenly Wind Empire, have fallen in love with a female slave.”
Gu Bailu had touched Lu Fenying’s sore spot.
He was the lofty and unparalleled master of the crown prince’s residence. Everyone listened to him and no one disobeyed him.
How could he allow himself to fall in love with a slave?
If he wouldn’t admit that he couldn’t bear to part with Qian’er, then the more he said that he didn’t want to cut her loose, the more Gu Bailu would say that it was because of love.
He would never allow such a rumor to spread.
“If you keep talking nonsense, don’t blame me for being ruthless.” Lu Fenying gripped his chopsticks tightly, his face full of murderous intent.
Feng Qingtian held Gu Bailu in his arms and looked at Lu Fenying coldly. “Why are you angry, Your Highness? Lulu was only joking. If it’s not true, you can just ignore it.”
Lu Fenying looked at Gu Bailu coldly. “Don’t try to be smart, or I won’t care who you are!”
“If that’s not the case, why are you unwilling to erase Qian’er’s slave mark? Is a slave more important than a city?”
Gu Bailu didn’t care about whatever threats he made. She only knew that Lu Fenying was scared.
She had finally grasped his weakness. It would be strange if she didn’t use it.
Of course, they weren’t planning to use a city in the trade, but Gu Bailu was deliberately exaggerating the terms.
After all, Lu Fenying wouldn’t let Qian’er go.
Lu Fenying said coldly, “I don’t think Southern Glory Empire is as big as Heavenly Wind Empire. You can keep it.”
Lu Fenying stood up and left with an awful expression.
Gu Bailu stuck her tongue out at his back. “You clearly don’t want to be parted from her, yet you’re still pretending!”
Feng Qingtian touched her head. “You’re still in his territory. It’s better to be careful.”
“He won’t dare touch us. If he dares, I’ll kill the woman he loves. That sick shell won’t be able to take it.”
“Let’s go back. In the end, this is someone else’s territory,” Feng Qingtian said as he hugged her.
Gu Bailu shook her head. “I’m not done yet. Besides, I’ve never looked around Heavenly Wind Empire since I got here.”
“There’s nothing to see here. The streets are no different from Pale Emperor City.” Feng Qingtian gave her a bowl of black chicken soup. “Eat it. You need to make up for your exhaustion today.”
Gu Bailu looked at him. “Do you think there’s something wrong with Lu Fenying?”
“It’s probably because of his sense of possessiveness. Lu Fenying is an overbearing and ruthless man. He touched Qian’er, so she’s his woman. He certainly won’t let another man have her,” Feng Qingtian analyzed objectively.
