Queen of flowers - chapter 106

She sighed secretly, and gently touched the tea with her lips.

One second, two seconds, three seconds…

“Congratulations to the host for earning 3,000 points. The balance now is 7,870 points.”

Yong Ruo was very satisfied. Today, she had gained a lot of points, which was higher than the total points of those drugs in Lin Fangfei’s body.

“Well, exchange points for a cramp in my right thumb.”

“Successful. After deducting 20 points, the balance is 7850 points.”

Yong Ru felt a pain in her right thumb, and she threw the tea cup in her hand.

With a “crack” sound, the tea cup fell to the ground and broke into several pieces.

Everyone in the room looked at Yong Ruo in surprise.

Taifei’s face was somber as if dripping with hate.

Seeing Yong Ruo’s pain, Feng Liao immediately asked with concern, “What happened?”

Yong Ruo raised her right hand and turned it over. The tendon under the thumb was very tight and visible to the naked eye.

“My finger is cramped! It hurts a lot …”

Feng Liao reached out and shook her hand.

Yong Ruo quickly avoided it—she didn’t want them to display affection in front of Shen Teifei. She got up and saluted Shen Taifei, “Please forgive me! Just now my finger suddenly cramped, and I accidentally dropped the tea cup. I am really ashamed!”

Shen Taifei gritted her teeth slightly, the expression on her face didn’t show anything. It took a while for her to say bluntly, “Well, your fingers are cramped! It’s not intentional …”

Yong Ruo said respectfully, “Thank you Taifei!”

Feng Liao got up and said to Shen Taifei, “Mother, I’ll take Yongshi to the doctor. Why is there a sudden cramp?”

Shen Taifei waved, motioning for them to leave.

Feng Liao and Yong Ruo left.

Shen Taifei sat on the couch and watched their back disappear. It took a while before she waved her hand and most of the maids left, leaving only Du Fu and Zhu Xing; the mother and daughter.

“Yong’s fingers are really cramped?” Shen Taifei’s face was somber. She asked this question not only to them, but also to herself.

“It looked like … it’s really …” Zhu Xing, who was standing behind Yong Ruo, answered carefully, “But, this is too weird. Damn, why did she suddenly have a cramp in her finger?”

Shen Taifei’s face was even more gloomy. She gritted her teeth and said, “What kind of dragon and the phoenix luck she has? We failed, she dodged our every attempt!”

(the dragon and the phoenix bringing prosperity* means auspicious events. )

Du Yan and Zhu Xing looked at each other and did not dare to answer this, but they had the same doubts in their hearts.

After a while, Shen Tai Fei’s face was overcast, and she said, “Continue! I’ll ask her to meet me tomorrow, I don’t believe she will still have a cramp in her hands tomorrow!”

——————

Feng Yao took Yong Ruo and rubbed her cramped fingers while walking towards the Dustless hall.

Out of the Shou’an Hall, Feng Liao asked someone to ask for a doctor.

Yong Ruo quickly persuaded, “It’s only a finger cramp. Asking for a doctor is too frivolous! Mr. Xu Taiyi will come tomorrow, let him take a look then. It is not an emergency, don’t trouble the doctor! Maybe it’s because I wrote too much these two days? “

Feng Liao looked at her firm expression and compromised, “Then you don’t write anymore, take a good rest for a few days. Your writing strokes are quite sharp. If you want to improve, go slow, don’t worry about it.”

“Okay, I will listen to Wang Ye!”

Back to the Dustless hall, Yong Ruo’s fingers were not cramped anymore.

Feng Liao’s mood was bad. He waved his servant to go out, pulled Yong Ruo together to sit on the couch and closed his eyes.

After a while, Feng Liao opened his eyes and looked at Yong Ruo, and asked, “What did my sister tell you?”

Yong Ruo hesitated a little.

“You only said that my sister did not want to let people know what you both talked about, but you did not explicitly promise my sister to keep it secret. Won’t you tell me the truth? Should there be secrets between you and me? “

Yong Ruo sighed and decided not to conceal any more. She said to Feng Liao, “It’s okay to tell you, but you promise me first, don’t get angry and pretend you don’t know about it.”

Feng Liao looked at her, and couldn’t help but smile bitterly, “I am suddenly scared to hear it now and I don’t dare ask any questions!”

“Does Wang Ye have to know about it?”

Feng Liao sighed heavily, staring blindly at the curtains in the room, his eyes were slightly moist. After a long time, he said softly, “I want to hear about it!” Although his voice was soft, his tone was firm.

Yong Ruo told him about the conversation she had with the Princess of Xing’an County.

When Feng Liao heard about the life and death bet, the blood on his face faded and he turned pale.

Yong Ruo watched his eyes gradually turn red and comforted him, “Well, Wang Ye this may be a mere joke.”

Feng Liao smiled bleakly, “A joke? Who would make such a joke? You don’t need to comfort me anymore, I know how naive I was before!”

A crystal tear slipped from his cheeks, dripped on the cushions of the couch, and disappeared without trace.

Not long after, Du Yan came again, brought some things that Shen Taifei rewarded, and sent a message to Yong Ruo, “The Taifei said that now that Madam Yong is sealed, she is eligible to go to the Shou’an hall for morning greeting. The greeting will be at Chen Zheng’s time. Don’t miss it, Madam.”

(ChengZhen’s time:7-9am)

Yong Ruo smiled, “Thank you for telling me! I will go on time tomorrow!”

She just smashed a cup today, but it wouldn’t work tomorrow, unfortunately!

As soon as Du Yan left, another person in the palace sent a message saying that the emperor called Feng Liao and Feng Shi to meet him the next day.

Feng Liao said to Yong Ruo, “Be careful tomorrow!”

Yong Ruo laughed, “Rest assured, the Princess of Xing’an County is still recuperating! And you have known me for so long, when did you see me suffering? I will be fine, you should worry about the emperor.”

Feng Liao smiled, “Uncle Huang loves me very much! You don’t need to worry about me.”

That night, neither Feng Liao nor Yong Ruo slept well. The next day, he had to enter the palace.
