546: Are You Going to Marry Someone Else?
Jier knew this, but he was still angry. Feng Wu was like a little sister to him. How could he watch his beloved younger sister be cheated?
It was impossible to hold a wedding secretly, but it was very possible for Ming Xi to marry his cousin. Jier wanted to guard against that.
Feng Wu said, “Oh,” then after thinking about it for a moment, took something out from her dimensional storage.
Jier saw it was a communication crystal. What did you intend to do with it? Was she. . .
Yep. Feng Wu contacted Ming Xi directly.
“Jier said you’re going to marry someone else. It is true?” Feng Wu’s soft and sweet voice rang out and asked the question like she was asking what he had for breakfast. She was completely calm and her eyes didn’t have the slightest ripple.
“I want to marry someone else?!” Ming Xi’s expression froze. How did he not know about such a big matter relating to himself?
“Do you want to marry someone else?” Feng Wu blinked. He had not answered her question.
“There is absolutely no such thing. You are the only girl I want to marry – no one else.” Ming Xi looked at Feng Wu seriously. There was so much sincerity in his eyes, it was practically exploding out.
“He said I’m the only girl he wants to marry – no one else.” A very happy Feng Wu relayed to Jier. She was clearly satisfied with Ming Xi’s answer.
Ming Xi was going to marry her, Xiao Ye would have a father, and Master wouldn’t have to worry about finding her a husband. Happy.
Jier was confused. This girl, did she not think Ming Xi could lie? Could she not be so trusting? She was too honest! Scumbags were going to cheat her if she wasn’t careful.
“Jier, can you tell this senior where you heard this news that I’m going to marry someone else?” Ming Xi smiled dangerously. Those that knew him knew it was a sign of impending danger.
Ming Xi rarely got angry – very few things were worthy enough for him to be angry over. He was a gentle and kind prince under normal circumstances and everyone in the palace thought he had an excellent temper. Only those who witnessed his methods knew the meaning of what it meant to be bit by a silent dog.
Jier suddenly felt deep malice coming from Ming Xi.
“It’s spread all over school that you will take the Moon empress’s niece as your imperial consort.” Jier replied honestly.
Judging from Ming Xi’s appearance, it didn’t look like he was lying. Was it possible the news was false or was it that Ming Xi didn’t know he was betrothed yet?
“Mother Empress’s niece. . . are you talking about Hua Jin?”[notes] Ming Xi stroked his chin and smiled warmly like a spring breeze.
It was obviously a warm smile so why did it make people feel like they were facing a frigid artic wind?
Illusion. It had to be an illusion.
“I don’t know her name, but she’s supposed to be here the day after tomorrow. She's supposed to come audit classes. I don’t know what she’s thinking leaving the royal academy to come study here,” complained Jier.
The woman’s arrival was causing rumors to spread all over school. If she was Ming Xi’s fiancée, then what did that make Feng Wu? Jier was aggrieved just thinking about it.
“She actually went to Xingguang Holy academy, how very informed of her.” A cold light flashed across Ming Xi’s eyes.
“Please look after Xiao Wu. I suspect Hua Jin will target Xiao Wu.”
“You don’t have to tell me that. Of course I’ll watch over Xiao Wu. Xiao Wu and I are good friends.” Jier patted his chest as he said this.
Ming Xi sat at his desk with an odd expression on his face after he closed the communication with Feng Wu. He was wrapping his knuckles on the table without realizing it.
Both the people of the Hua family and his mother’s maternal family were getting more and more restless. Were they still dreaming of having two empresses? His maternal grandmother was thinking too much.
To even dare get involved in the marriage of a crown prince, clearly, they needed to be reminded who they were.
After the call, Jier took Feng Wu out to the local streets for a big meal. Being angry required a lot of energy and he needed to replenish!
Feng Wu liked the idea of going out for food. Now that he had teeth, Little Bun could eat a lot more things.
Feng Wu followed Jier around and Little Bun munched on things until his tummy was a round watermelon.
They were just walking out of a shop selling grilled fish when they ran into two enemies on the streets.
Jasmine and Yifu.[notes]
Jasmine, who knows why, had been distancing herself from Zi Cheng. Despite this, she still kept in contact with Yifu. They shared a common enemy after all.
It was rare for all three to be in the same place at the same time.
No one knew why Jasmine and Zi Cheng were estranged, but because of it, the magicians in the department looked unfavorably on Jasmine. Zi Cheng was a second-year student and was practically a goddess amongst the students in the Magic department.
Who knows how many men fell under her spell and how many women were now friends to the death with her. Just like Yifu, they were perfectly loyal lackeys.
If it weren’t for the fact Yifu and Jasmine had Feng Wu as a common enemy, there would be no way they could be together.
Two annoying women. Jier cursed under his breath. Of all the people to meet, how annoying.
Feng Wu didn’t feel anything about them. She held Little Bun with both hands and barely gave them a glance.
Being ignored by their number one enemy didn’t sit well with either Jasmine or Yifu.
Yifu was already on the verge of making a scene, so Feng Wu ignoring her pushed her over. She started walking toward Feng Wu intending to give her a severe scolding.
Yifu was more sensible. She caught Yifu before the other girl could go and make trouble. She had suffered a tremendous loss under Jier’s hands and still vividly remembered Jier’s methods for revenge.
Jasmine said something in Yifu’s ear. Following that, Yifu snorted disdainfully and walked away from Feng Wu and Jier.
Were those two trying to make trouble? Jier couldn’t believe them. They were ridiculous.
Yifu, who normally raged at Feng Wu, left so easily. Something wasn’t right. Why did Jier get the feeling they were up to no good? Well whatever. If he couldn’t figure it out, he couldn’t figure it out. It wasn’t like either of them had the means to do anything anyway. When the time came, he’d just deal with them appropriately. What was there to be worried about?
And with that thought, Jier took Feng Wu and Little Bun to eat at the next stall.
