But Jun Wuxia seemed to have anticipated that Feng Xun would try to run, so she held her ground and blocked his way.
“Brother Feng Xun, aren’t you happy to see me? Are you leaving already?” Jun Wuxia stood in front of Feng Xun and looked at him with teary eyes.
After all, she was a princess, and her parents were just around the corner, so Feng Xun couldn’t be too harsh on her.
Hence, he had to smile awkwardly as he said, “My princess, you’re mistaken. I’m just standing up to wele you and your sister. To what do we owe this honor?”
Jun Wuxia was glad to hear that, and she smiled, looking as pretty as a blossoming flower.
“Feng Xun, do you like to see me that much? How about I e and visit you tomorrow?” Jun Wuxia stepped forward with her delicate chin raised, tugged at Feng Xun’s wide sleeve, and looked at him eagerly.
Feng Xun looked as if he had just swallowed a fly.
“Please don’t. You really don’t have to do that, my princess.” His head was already aching.
Feng Wu glanced at Feng Xun as she roasted the fish.
It was quite a teasing look.
Was that girl laughing at him? Feng Xun threw a dirty look at her.
Feng Wu made a face at him. Yes, she was laughing at him, because he couldn’t even handle Jun Wuxia.
Feng Xun snarled at Feng Wu.
Jun Wuxia was Empress Dugu’s daughter, and that woman was the emperor’s favorite, so he couldn’t afford to offend the girl.
He wasn’t Boss Jun, who could strike anyone he didn’t like with his sword and tell them to get lost.
Seeing the way Feng Wu and Feng Xun interacted with each other, Jun Wuxia was furious.
Her gaze shifted from Feng Xun to Feng Wu.
“Why, I was wondering who it was. Isn’t it Miss Feng Wu?” Crossing her arms, Jun Wuxia walked around Feng Wu and looked her up and down, as if she was examining her.
She was sizing Feng Wu up.
Other people would have been shaken by that searching look, but Feng Wu…
She wasn’t the least bit disturbed, and she looked perfectly calm as well. She didn’t react to Jun Wuxia’s gaze at all.
Jun Wuxia narrowed her eyes.
This Feng Wu was so annoying!
She had made Jun Wuxia miserable in the World Tower last time, so when the princess saw Feng Wu again, she was filled with rage.
“Miss Feng Wu, what are you doing here? Are you roasting fish?” Jun Wuxia stared at the grill with a displeased look on her face.
Feng Wu didn’t want to talk to her, so she only hummed.
Jun Wuxia’s face darkened a little.
She had never been ignored like this before.
Growing up, she was used to enjoying wealth and honor, not to mention that the empress was her mother, so no one had ever dared to offend her. However, this insignificant Feng Wu kept ignoring her!
Damn her! Damn her!
However, Jun Wuxia had to feign a magnanimous attitude, just to show Feng Xun that she was a kind, gentle princess.
“Feng Wu, I hear that you’re an excellent cook, and everyone in the crown prince’s residence can’t stop singing your praises. Is that true?” Jun Wuxia’s eyes glinted.
She tugged at her sister’s hand, telling the latter that she should speak now.
The shy fifth princess suddenly interjected, “I heard that your fish-flavored shredded pork is amazing. Can I try it?”
Jun Wuxia glanced at her little attendant and seemed pleased.
