Chapter 892: Beseech Her to Return to Shen Manor
Feng Tianlan looked at the state preceptor, who seemingly only had eyes for the chessboard, and asked, “Did Xi Jin also offer a blood sacrifice to the crystal ball to find out the truth of my death?”
The state preceptor did not speak and only looked at the chessboard. Some questions did not need to be answered.
Feng Tianlan looked at him for a while and realized that no answer was forthcoming, so she stopped asking. She turned around to leave.
The state preceptor was too strange. She did not know what his purpose was exactly, and she always felt a deep sense of powerlessness in front of him. It was as if she did not have any privacy in front of him, especially with the crystal ball in his hands.
So, she really did not feel good about the state preceptor.
Feng Tianlan returned to the Bailan Alliance only to see both Shen Bokang and Yuan Fangfei waiting at the entrance.
“Dai’er, my poor child.” Seeing Feng Tianlan, Yuan Fangfei immediately rushed toward her. Her cry was simply earth-shattering.
Feng Tianlan turned slightly sideways to avoid Yuan Fangfei. She looked at her coldly and said, “Lady Shen, you mistook me for someone else. People might think you lost your son, coming at me in such a manner.”
“Dai’er, how can you talk to your aunt like this? What happened to the etiquette we taught you over the years?” Shen Bokang put his hands behind his back. His face was solemn as he reprimanded Feng Tianlan.
Feng Tianlan looked up at Shen Bokang, who wore a serious expression that looked exactly like a stern father, and sneered, “If my father and mother were still alive, would I ever forget the etiquette I had learned?”
“How dare you!” Shen Bokang came forward and reached his hand out, wanting to slap her.
Swish, swish, swish!
Just when he had raised his hand, a few figures appeared and weapons had been drawn, all of which were aimed at Shen Bokang. The guards’ expressions seemed to say that they would cut someone to pieces if they dared to attack the Princess Consort.
Shen Bokang’s hand stopped stiffly in the air. He could not strike nor retreat for the moment. He could only raise his hand awkwardly and glower angrily at her.
“What are you doing?” Yuan Fangfei hurriedly pulled down Shen Bokang’s hand and said, “Dai’er has come back after much difficulty. It’s okay if you don’t care. But how can you hit the child?”
“I think she has turned unruly living outside for the last three years. It’s outrageous that she actually dares to talk to you in this way. If I don’t instruct her properly, she will be disliked when she enters the Jiang family and becomes their daughter-in-law. If she were to be bullied, how am I to answer to my eldest brother and sister-in-law?” he said.
“Ha!” Feng Tianlan could not help but laugh out loud after listening to Shen Bokang’s words. She was really thankful that she was not led astray by them when she was young. They even dared to say such things now.
The level of their shamelessness must be more than that of even Tu Xiang, right?
Seeing how Shen Bokang was about to become angry, Yuan Fangfei hurried to pacify him and then looked lovingly at Feng Tianlan to say, “Dai’er, your uncle’s temper is a little short, but it is still for your own good. Just come home with us now.”
“And go back as Shen Qingdai?” Feng Tianlan looked at them coldly.
“Of course. Even though you have changed into a different body, the state preceptor has proven that you are Dai’er. So, you naturally will return as Shen Qingdai.” Once she had returned, they would marry her off in two or three days. Once the main problem was out of the way, all troubles would then be resolved.
“Do you want me back that badly?” Feng Tianlan crossed her arms in front of her and looked at them cynically.
Yuan Fangfei put on the expression a kind mother would wear and said, “That is, of course, we worked hard to raise you and treated you better than our own daughter. Of course, we want you back.”
“Very well.” Feng Tianlan curled her lips and looked at Shen Bokang’s stern face with a sneer and said, “I am the Shen Family’s eldest Miss, so I have been bestowed with the seniority to inherit the Shen Family from an early age. Since you desire me to return so much, then let me go back as the master of the Shen Family.”
