C218 I Am Going to Pursue the Past!
As she thought about it, a vague outline appeared in Feng Yu’s mind. When she realized who the person in her mind was, she couldn’t help but be shocked.
Feng Yu held her chest as a stunned expression appeared in her eyes. How could she have thought that the person who saved her was her master?
She probably had delusions. At that time, she didn’t have any relationship with her master, so how could her master not save her and not let her know?
But who else could it be other than her master?
Feng Yu’s brain cells had died countless times, but she didn’t think of a second person. She sighed. She would definitely ask her master when she saw her master a few days later.
Since she already suspected him, she had to find out the truth.
The study room in the Chen Mansion.
Bei Mingchen sat behind the desk with an ice-cold expression. Two guards were kneeling on the ground, and the night wind stood by the side with a cold expression.
He looked at Bei Mingchen and said respectfully, “Your Highness, I have investigated. The two people who were guarding Miss Feng that day were these two people. They must know what happened that day. If Your Highness wants to know, you can ask them.”
Bei Mingchen raised his eyes and looked at the two guards kneeling on the ground. When they felt his gaze, the two guards trembled even more. Their heads were lowered so low that they almost fell to the ground. Their foreheads were covered in cold sweat, and even their faces were as pale as ghosts because of their fear.
"Repeat what you said to me last time."
Beiming Chen squinted his eyes and opened his thin red lips. His voice was bone-chilling. When the two guards heard his voice, fear appeared in their eyes. Beads of sweat started to fall from their foreheads. Their lips kept trembling, but they couldn’t say a single word.
Beiming Chen clenched his fists and said coldly, "Repeat."
His voice wasn’t very loud, but it seemed to contain a lot of power. The two guards on the floor instantly turned pale, as if they were about to die.
"You can’t hear what I said, right?"
Ye Feng walked over with his hands behind his back and kicked one of the guards. He stepped on his chest and said coldly, "Tell me, what did you say to me last time?"
The guard groaned in pain and said in fear, "Master, please forgive me. Master, please forgive me. Princess Xue forced me to say that last time. I couldn’t do anything about it. I beg you to let me go."
Ye Feng kicked him again and said angrily, "How dare you! You don’t even know who your master is? How dare you lie to the master? You must be tired of living."
"I don’t dare to. I don’t dare to…"
The guard was trembling, and the other one was terrified. Ye Feng’s eyes turned cold. He kicked the other one to the ground and said angrily, "Tell me."
“Yes, yes. Master Ye, please don’t be angry. I will tell you right now.”
The guard who was kicked to the ground by Ye Feng raised his head and spoke with a terrified voice, “Princess Snow and Princess Ling Yan gave the spiritual cat to Miss Feng together. However, for some reason, Miss Feng and Princess Snow started a fight. They started a fight because they didn’t like each other. After Miss Feng injured Princess Snow, she left with the spiritual cat without looking back… Ah…”
Before he finished, he was kicked on the chest by Ye Feng. He spat out a mouthful of blood and couldn’t help but scream.
Ye Feng looked at him indifferently. He turned around and stepped on another guard. He said in a cold voice, “Tell me now. What is the truth?”
The guard was breathing heavily and he swallowed his saliva. He spoke with a trembling voice, “My lord, Master Ye, it was Princess Snow. She blocked Miss Feng’s provocation with the spiritual cat. She said that my lord gave the spiritual cat to Princess Ling Yan because he wanted to please Princess Ling Yan. She also attacked Miss Feng. The two of them started a fight.”
“Miss Feng kicked Princess Snow. Princess Ling Yan hit Miss Feng. Miss Feng was severely injured. She took the spiritual cat and ran away when the two princesses were not paying attention. My lord, please forgive us. Master Ye, please forgive us. It was Princess Snow who threatened us to not talk. Otherwise, she would kill us. We wouldn’t dare to disobey the princess. My lord, please forgive us…”
Darkness appeared in Beiming Chen’s eyes. He squinted his eyes and said in a cold voice, “So, you only care about Beiming Xue and not me.”
The two guards shook their heads in fear and kept kowtowing. Beiming Chen moved his lips and said in a cold voice, “Ye Feng, take them away. I don’t want to see them again.”
The two guards were scared out of their wits after hearing this. They even forgot to beg for mercy. They just looked at Beiming Chen in a daze.
“Yes, Your Highness.”
Ye Feng answered respectfully and shouted outside, “Men, take these two idiots away.”
After he said that, four guards walked in and dragged the two guards away.
The two guards screamed and struggled when they were dragged away, but they couldn’t break free from the two guards. They were dragged away very quickly. Their screams became softer and softer until they completely disappeared.
Behind the desk, Beiming Chen was sitting quietly. He didn’t even raise his eyelids, but his handsome face was covered in a layer of ice. His dark face made people feel suffocated.
Ye Feng didn’t dare to speak recklessly. He just stood on the ground and looked at Beiming Chen. He didn’t say anything.
“Ye Feng, send someone to bring Beiming Xue back.”
Bei Mingchen suddenly raised his head and looked at the wind. His voice was calm and he nodded, “Yes, Your Royal Highness.”
The next day.
Feng Yu woke up early in the morning. Although she slept very late the previous night, she didn’t feel sleepy and didn’t get up early because she had something on her mind.
She washed herself and took off her house clothes. She changed into a clean black dress and planned to go find Bei Mingchen to talk about leaving.
It was already the 14th of the month and there were six more days until her graduation. Her brother had said that he would go back to the Imperial Capital with her, but she was unexpectedly brought back to the Imperial Capital by Bei Mingchen.
If her brother went to find her at the Purple Bamboo Peak but couldn’t find her, he would be very worried. In order to avoid making her brother worry, she could only go back to find her brother.
She pushed open the door and saw a slender dark figure standing outside. Bei Mingchen? Why is he here? A trace of doubt flashed through Feng Yu’s eyes.
Their eyes met and she saw fatigue in his eyes.
Feng Yu took a step back and went back into the room. Bei Mingchen’s throat rolled and he stepped into the room. His dark eyes kept on looking at her.
He walked past her and pulled out a chair to sit down. He poured himself a cup of tea. The sound of the tea was soft and it was accompanied by his cold voice.
“Yun Fengyu, I didn’t give the spiritual cat to Ling Yan.”
Feng Yu’s eyelids twitched as she said, “Yesterday, Young Master Ye said that I misunderstood you. However, this matter has already passed and the misunderstanding has been resolved, so I hope that we don’t talk about it anymore.”
Maybe he didn’t do anything wrong, but Feng Yu had indeed been angry for a long time. Even if she talked about it now, she wouldn’t regret misunderstanding him.
When he left, he could have left the Dark Spirit by her side. He couldn’t have asked someone to give it to her. If she saw the Dark Spirit after she woke up, would she not understand what he meant?
However, he didn’t do that, so even if she misunderstood him, he deserved it.
Bei Mingchen held the teacup in his hand and lowered his head slightly. He lowered his eyes and said coldly, “Why didn’t you tell me that you were injured by Ling Yan?”
Feng Yu raised her eyebrows and looked at him with a cold smile. She said, “Why should I tell you? Will you return me justice?”
At that time, she wanted to question him, but she felt embarrassed. He didn’t promise her anything, so what right did she have to question him?
At that time, she was too eager to get the fragment in Bei Mingchen’s hand, so they didn’t make any formal agreements. Even verbal agreements weren’t made, so even if he broke the agreement and played with her, it was her bad luck.
What right did she have to question him?
Beiming Chen fell silent and didn’t speak anymore. He had no way to answer Feng Yu’s question.
Feng Yu sneered. She already knew the answer, so she wasn’t surprised when she saw him fall silent.
“Beiming Chen, I’m leaving.” She crossed her arms and looked down at him.
Beiming Chen raised his head and looked at her. He shook his head and said coldly, “No.” He moved his throat and added, “Yun Fengyu, without my permission, you are not allowed to leave the Chen mansion.”
“What do you mean?” Feng Yu looked at him coldly.
Beiming Chen turned his head away and took a sip of the tea in front of him. He didn’t speak. Feng Yu walked in front of him and pinched his chin. She forced him to look at her and said mockingly, “What? Beiming Chen, are you trying to imprison me?”
Beiming Chen’s eyelids twitched a few times. He didn’t open her fingers and put down the teacup. He looked at her with his eyes.
Feng Yu suddenly shook his chin and took a step back. She looked at him with narrowed eyes and smiled coldly. She said, “Beiming Chen, you really want to imprison me. You are a pervert.”
She humphed and turned her head away. She said, “Tell me, how can you release my spiritual energy and let me go?”
She could release the sealed Spiritual Qi, but it was too troublesome. Last time, it took her three days to release the Spiritual Qi. This time, it would take her a lot longer.
Bei Mingchen rubbed the teacup in his hand and said indifferently, “I’ve already given you the five hundred thousand gold coins you wanted. Now tell me if you want me to help you get rid of the Demonic Seed in your body or not.”
“If I say I won’t help you, you won’t let me go, right?”
Feng Yu’s eyes were cold and she smiled mockingly. This man was overbearing. He looked calm, but he wouldn’t stop until he got what he wanted. He had already set his eyes on her, so how could he let her go before he got what he wanted?
She understood everything, but she just didn’t want to accept this result.
