Chapter 222: Jun Linyuan’s Duty
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“What?” Feng Xun gestured at himself in confusion. “Why did I do? I’ve done nothing but help you all the time. Little Feng Wu, where is your conscience? Why did you say that?”
“Why did I say that? Because you’re telling everyone that I like Jun Linyuan…”
“So, you were trying to keep it a secret and I made it public knowledge?”
“No!” Feng Wu, who had always been able to keep her composure, stomped her foot in vexation. “I’ve told you a million times: I’m not in love with Jun Linyuan! I swear that if I’m not telling the truth, I’ll be struck by a thunderbolt —”
Feng Wu had barely finished the sentence when —
“Watch out!!!” Feng Wu blanched and yanked Feng Wu toward him!
The ground where Feng Wu had been standing was charred by the sudden clap of thunder.
Feng Wu was speechless.
So was Feng Xun.
Shaken, they stared at each other, both at a loss over what to say —
Both had awkward looks on their faces…
All of a sudden —
“Hahahahaha —” Feng Xun guffawed. He laughed so hard that he was practically rolling around on the ground. “This is hilarious, hahahaha… Little Feng Wu, you were so lying your ass off. Hahahaha —”
Feng Wu took a deep breath, then another, but it wasn’t enough to fight back her exasperation.
What an unfortunate coincidence!
The thunderbolt struck as soon as she said the words!
It was as if someone was doing it on purpose!
She looked up at the sky.
Dark clouds had gathered in the once bright blue sky, so thick that it seemed like they were going to crush them! A heavy downpour started, and peering through the rain, one could make out that figure dressed in black in the distant sky.
It was Jun Linyuan.
With his power alone, he had mobilized all the water there was to extinguish the volcano’s violent eruption.
To Feng Wu, the crown prince had always been this nonchalant, heartless, resolute, and cruel character who was almost bloodthirsty.
She never expected that in order to stop the fire from spreading and damaging the farmland at the foot of the mountain, he was still doing all he could to summon the rain despite his injury.
Feng Wu had never seen Jun Linyuan like this, fulfilling his duty diligently.
In Feng Wu’s mind, Jun Linyuan was the type that didn’t give a damn about cleaning up after himself.
This… had changed her opinion of him, Feng Wu thought to herself.
Feng Xun had no idea what was going on in Feng Wu’s head and he kept on laughing. “Stop denying it already! You’re staring at him and your eyes are practically glued to the guy. At least try harder if you want to convince me.”
Feng Wu was speechless.
Feng Xun was convinced that she was in love with Jun Linyuan no matter what she said, and Feng Wu decided to give up trying. She would give herself a heart attack if she didn’t stop here.
However, she would have to talk to Jun Linyuan and explain it to him later.
Once she had made up her mind, Feng Wu put it aside for the time being. The most important thing now was to treat Mrs Ning.
Outside the gate of Wanping Town, Granny Qu was waiting anxiously. She couldn’t help but walk around in circles.
“Why are they still not back? It’s been almost six hours. Where are they… Did something happen to them up there?” Just as Granny Qu was mumbling to herself in consternation, the volcano erupted in Frozen Forest!
Granny Qu’s knees buckled and she almost dropped to the ground —
Feng Wu’s medical skills were the only thing they could count on at the moment; they couldn’t afford to have anything happen to the girl —
Luckily, Feng Wu and Feng Xun came back in short order.
“Miss Feng, you’re back! Are you alright?” Even the stern-faced Granny Qu couldn’t conceal her excitement.
Feng Wu nodded. “I’m fine. Have you figured out who poisoned Mrs Ning?”
