Chapter 221: Chapter 221

However, in the eyes of others, Feng Qiwu’s words became a confirmation that the Mad Crown Prince was indeed twisted! It’s such a pity for Bai Susu, such an exceptionally clever woman, to fall into the hands of a freak like Feng Qiwu.

Feng Qiwu had yet to marry her, but he publicly tormented her ; once they were wed, it would be even more unbearable for her.

For a moment, countless glances, either pitying or gloating, swept silently over Bai Susu. Content orıginally comes from N()velFire.net

Bai Susu simply lowered her head expressionlessly, staring at the tip of Feng Qiwu’s shoe.

She feared that if she looked at Feng Qiwu at that moment, she might not be able to resist laughing and give herself away.

But holding in laughter was truly a hard task.

Who asked her to be a performer now? In such circumstances, she had to hold it in.

Meanwhile, Zhao Sheng was momentarily speechless but quickly recovered to say coldly, "Crown Prince Qin, don’t you think you’re going too far? Miss Bai is a living person, not some object for your amusement and competition! Aren’t you afraid of hurting Miss Bai’s feelings by speaking ?"

In his heart, he wished for Feng Qiwu to say more hurtful things to make Bai Susu feel sadder.

Because the more it went , the less Bai Susu would expect from Feng Qiwu and the more she would despise him.

At that time, he just needed to employ a small trick to win the heart of this beauty.

And Bai Susu, seeing that Zhao Sheng was determined to drag the topic to her today, was speechless too.

With her eyes lowered, she secretly rolled them and subtly leaned closer to Feng Qiwu before lifting them slightly to say to Zhao Sheng, "Crown Prince Zhao, please watch your words. As I am now the Crown Prince’s fiancée, I must prioritize him in all matters. Moreover, I have not been upset by the Crown Prince’s words, so please do not speculate on others’ thoughts lightly."

Does Zhao Sheng think that by speaking with these green tea comments, he can make her disappointed in Feng Qiwu?

But unfortunately, the one who will be disappointed is likely to be himself.

Even Zhao Sheng hadn’t expected Bai Susu would stand out at this moment to defend Feng Qiwu.

He couldn’t help but glare at Bai Susu and say, "Miss Bai, you’ve read so many books; you should be a sensible woman. Even though he tramples on you , you still speak for him?"

After speaking, he deliberately feigned realization and continued to speculate, "I see, he must have threatened you to say this, correct? Don’t worry, the envoys from various countries are here today. If you are wronged or frightened, just speak up—I trust the Emperor of Da Qin will stand up for you."

Then he addressed Feng Qingyang, "I sincerely ask the Emperor of Da Qin, if Miss Bai doesn’t wish to marry, please consider the face of us envoys from various countries and grant Miss Bai her freedom."

Feng Qingyang listened and immediately narrowed his eyes coldly.

Then he suddenly looked at Bai Susu.

"Bai Susu, what do you think?" Feng Qingyang asked.

Upon hearing this, Bai Susu quickly bowed and responded, "Your Majesty, I believe Crown Prince Zhao has overstepped. Since ancient times, marriage has been a matter of parents’ orders and matchmakers’ words. As for the marriage between His Highness and me, my grandfather and Your Majesty are taking care of it—what business is it to Crown Prince Zhao, an outsider?"

"Moreover, marrying His Highness does not make me feel aggrieved or afraid at all."

After speaking, she addressed Zhao Sheng righteously, "Crown Prince of Zhao Country, I will say again, please cease to speculate randomly about my feelings. In terms of identity, my fiancé is the Crown Prince of Da Qin, noble in status; in terms of appearance, sorry for offending the young men present, but who among you can compare to His Highness in looks? Just these two points make me willing to marry His Highness."

However, Zhao Sheng heard this and aggressively asked, "So, you’re marrying the Da Qin Crown Prince not because you like him, correct?"

His eyes then had a mocking look directed at Feng Qiwu, as if laughing at Feng Qiwu for indeed being unliked by women.

If Bai Susu initially just found this person annoying, at this moment she utterly despised him.

Is this person a leech that he has to stick to her relentlessly?

So insolent, might as well sew up his mouth!

Just as Bai Susu was about to retaliate impolitely, Feng Qiwu suddenly tightened his grip on her hand, then coldly laughed at Zhao Sheng.

"You seemed to like your little cousin, but in the end, didn’t you personally send her to your father’s bed? If you liked her so much, why didn’t you marry her?"

"Anyway, I heard your current Crown Princess Consort really likes you. To marry you, she even brought half of her father’s Tiger Talisman as dowry! With such a Crown Princess Consort who loves you, you must be very happy, right?"

After Feng Qiwu finished speaking, someone in the crowd suddenly let out a muffled laugh.

Everyone knew that Zhao Sheng’s Crown Princess Consort was also an "extraordinary woman."

It’s said that the woman’s weight was over two hundred pounds, her looks hideous and plain, like a she-devil.

But she just so happened to be the most beloved daughter of the Zhao Country’s great general, not to mention her several brothers were the backbones of Zhao Country.

So when this extraordinary woman fell for Zhao Sheng and wanted to marry him, even Zhao Sheng as the Crown Prince couldn’t casually choose in this matter.

Thus, Zhao Sheng’s wedding became a source of amusement for people from other countries at the time.

But no one dared to mention it in front of him.

Feng Qiwu’s mouth was truly venomous, bringing up just the worst possible topic.

Still, what’s this about the little cousin Feng Qiwu mentioned?

Soon, everyone’s gossipy eyes were on Zhao Sheng.

At this time, Zhao Sheng was completely stunned, as if he had been hit hard with a blunt object.

How did Feng Qiwu know about the cousin matter?

What exactly does he know?

No wonder Yu Qingfeng warned them not to continue offending Feng Qiwu when he withdrew.

It turns out he wasn’t afraid of him, but he had already seen the terrifying side of Feng Qiwu.

This person was practically a demon, able to find out even such secretive things he did back then!

In an instant, Zhao Sheng was utterly terrified.

His body trembled slightly, and he quickly stiffened his mouth to defend, "I don’t know what nonsense you’re talking about, you must not shift the topic."

"Don’t know... maybe I should show some evidence for everyone to see?" Feng Qiwu said.

Zhao Sheng’s face turned pale, and he hastily said, "Crown Prince Qin, why must you be so aggressive? I merely admire Miss Bai’s talents, and I want her to have a better life, thus paying extra attention to some of her situations, worried she might be entrusted to the wrong person."

"Since you all think I’m meddling too much, then I’ll not mention it anymore."

After speaking, he directly looked up to Feng Qingyang, "Forgive me, Emperor of Da Qin. I was imprudent just now, I apologize."

Feng Qingyang immediately smiled and gestured that it was fine.

Feng Qiwu’s eyes grew even more sinister.

"You offended Susu, what are you apologizing to Father for?"
