Chapter 374
What was she trying to tell him?
He found himself filled with nervousness and fear. He was afraid that she was going to say something to reject him. The possibility of that made him want to run away without listening to whatever it was she wanted to say. But at the same time, he couldn’t bear to ignore her words.
Struggling with these conflicting thoughts, Si Mobai didn’t get a wink of sleep the whole night.
The next morning, both of them woke up and washed up quietly. As they pushed the door open, there was a scream on the opposite side of the door and a person fell into the room. Si Mobai stepped aside instinctively whereas Feng Tianlan reached out subconsciously and grabbed that person.
“Yunzhu?” Feng Tianlan stared at Luo Yunzhu, speechless.
“Tian…” When Luo Yunzhu raised her head and caught sight of Feng Tianlan’s face, she forgot what she was about to say. Instead, her mouth fell open and she stared at her in disbelief, “You’re…”
So beautiful!
The woman in front of her was beautiful enough to cause the downfall of a city, no, even a state! She was as beautiful as a goddess from the heavens. Her beauty surpassed even that of the moon and embarrassed the prettiest flowers. All the words in the world used to describe a beauty applied to Feng Tianlan right now. Luo Yunzhu felt her thoughts scatter.
“Are you really Feng Tianlan?” she asked in disbelief. Luo Yunzhu finally regained her senses after being stunned for a long moment and circled Feng Tianlan to examine her all over.
Feng Tianlan was dressed in white, a faint smile lighting up her face. Her cold phoenix eyes and the usual imposing aura that she released made her more regal, like a snowy lotus from Mount Tianshan. Her beauty would make anyone walking past stop to check her out.
Feng Tianlan gave out a faint “uh-huh”.
“Tianlan, truly…unbelievable!” Luo Yunzhu continued to stare at Feng Tianlan’s captivating appearance in agitation and awe. “You look so different from before!”
She knew that Feng Tianlan was considered a beauty since she was young. However, her beauty back then was almost accidental. After one stared at her for a while, one would eventually grow disappointed with her appearance and start finding flaws. It was an imperfect beauty.
Right now, however, even if one continued to look at her, or even stare at her for a long time after getting a good first impression of her, one would have to begrudgingly and helplessly admit that she remained extremely attractive. A cold beauty but, at the same time, a regal and chaste beauty.
Previously, she only had a beautiful appearance, but now, her outward appearance reflected not just her perfect face and figure, but also highlighted her temperament and inner beauty as well.
“I looked like this in the past. It’s not like you have never seen it before.” Feng Tianlan laughed.
Luo Yunzhu shook her head, “It’s not the same. Definitely not! Last time you were just beautiful, but now, you are…captivating and beautiful! There is a difference in the energy you exude. Right now, you’re so beautiful to the point that it’s suffocating. You are so beautiful that I want to turn into a man and marry…you…”
As soon as she said those words, Luo Yunzhu felt the atmosphere turn bitterly cold as if she was suddenly surrounded by icicles. She raised her head and finally noticed Si Mobai standing next to Feng Tianlan. She backed three steps away from him in fear. “Your… Your Highness! Pardon me.”
“What did you just say?” Si Mobai’s gaze slowly found its way to Luo Yunzhu’s hand. The hand that had touched Feng Tianlan’s arm.
Luo Yunzhu froze under his cold gaze and quickly hid her hands behind her back. She took another step back in nervous fright. “I said ‘You are so pretty that I want to turn into a man and marry…'”
Before she could finish her sentence, she felt his gaze become even colder. With haste, she corrected herself, “‘…your uncle!’ Marry her uncle!”
Si Mobai finally let out a satisfied, soft ‘uh-huh’. Lan’er belonged to him alone.
Luo Yunzhu giggled, but only in her heart. The Wargod’s jealousy was so overpowering that he even felt jealous of her!
Feng Tianlan felt a smile tugging at the corners of her mouth. Luo Yunzhu was really good at making up stories.
“Your Highness, my—” Luo Yunzhu caught sight of the cold eyes glaring down at her. She hastily amended her words. “Your Tianlan looks pretty today, doesn’t she?”
Si Mobai agreed softly. Feng Tianlan was always pretty.
“To let you be the first to see her restored appearance…” Luo Yunzhu began to say.
“Yunzhu!” Feng Tianlan protested with a sudden shout.
Luo Yunzhu continued to speak, ignoring Feng Tianlan’s shout of protest, “…she stayed indoors the whole day yesterday and didn’t come out at all. She also said that a woman must look her best in front of the person she loves. I think she most certainly did this for you, Your Highness.”
“Are you saying that Tianlan restored her appearance for me?” Si Mobai raised his eyebrows in delight.
Feng Tianlan noticed that Luo Yunzhu had opened her mouth again to continue explaining, so she quickly took Si Mobai by the hand and steered him away. “Ignore her rambling. I have something to tell you.”
