Chapter 949
“I said, move.” Feng Wu’s eyes glinted like cold blades.
But the guards still wouldn’t move. They acted as if they didn’t hear Feng Wu at all.
Feng Wu smirked. “I won’t repeat myself again.”
Her actions would speak for her.
Thud!
Feng Wu raised her foot.
Thump!
She kicked the guard in front of her, and he hit the door behind him.
The loud noise caught the attention of the people inside.
Lady Xuanji had always been as skittish as a bunny, and she jumped at the loud bang.
“What happened? What happened?” Qiuling rushed out of her room to find Feng Wu standing at the entrance to the yard.
And Qiuling would never forget that scene.
The arrogant guards were all rolling around and moaning on the ground.
And there were more of them than Qiuling expected; it seemed that they included those who had been standing along the walls.
Qiuling savored the sight and was thrilled to see Feng Wu again. “Miss Wu! You’re back! Sob —”
She rushed to Feng Wu’s side, wrapped her arms around the latter, and burst into tears.
Feng Wu asked, “Where’s my mum? Are you alright?”
The guards were still moaning, but it was only background noise to Qiuling. She explained to Feng Wu as she led her to the bedroom, “Your mother is fine. She’s just a little shaken by everything that’s happened, and she’s resting inside. I’m so glad that you got back in time. Otherwise…”
“What happened?” Feng Wu asked Qiuling in bewilderment.
Qiuling stared back at her with an equally puzzled look. “Miss, you don’t know what happened?”
Feng Wu said, “I don’t. What is this all about?”
Qiuling scratched her head. “We have no idea. Your uncle had Fallen Star Yard locked down an hour ago, and none of us were allowed to leave.”
Just then —
“Feng Wu, how dare you come back!” A cold voice rang out behind her.
Feng Wu knew it was Feng Liu even before she turned her head.
And Feng Liu wasn’t alone. Lady Wang, Feng Sang, and Feng Yiran were with her. Even two of the elders who had gone into seclusion were here.
This had to be serious.
Feng Wu frowned at Feng Yanfeng, who led the group of people.
What baffled Feng Wu was that she had gotten first in the exam. In that case, her uncle, who was all about his own personal gain, should be welcoming her warmly now. However, his tone sounded rather accusing.
Feng Wu couldn’t care less about his manner, but scaring her mother was unforgivable!
On guard, Feng Wu narrowed her eyes.
Feng Yanfeng stared at Feng Wu with a ferocious look on his face. He looked like he wanted to kill her now.
Feng Liu snorted. “Feng Wu, how dare you come back! The entire empire knows what you did!”
Feng Wu’s eyes flickered. “What I did?”
Crossing her arms, Feng Liu sneered. “Don’t tell me you don’t know what this is about.”
Feng Wu said, “I don’t.”
“Stop pretending already. You took advantage of His Royal Highness when he was unconscious from the poison. You did it at the bottom of that cliff in the snowfield! What do you have to say about that?” Feng Liu asked.
Feng Wu’s stomach lurched.
Under the cliff in the snowfield? How did they know about that? Wait —
