Chapter 279: Chapter 279: Breakthrough to Innate (Part Seven) Chapter 279: Chapter 279: Breakthrough to Innate (Part Seven) Mu Ruyue’s eyes were slightly lowered in silence, her stunning face devoid of any expression. This man indeed deserved sympathy, but… that was before he did these things to her…
“Feng Jingtian, letting me leave is the best protection for me.”
“Impossible!” Feng Jingtian’s face changed drastically, he tightly gripped Mu Ruyue’s shoulders, and yelled somewhat agitatedly, “I will never let you leave! Wait for me, I will be back soon, and by then, no matter who tries to stop me, I will marry you!”
Mu Ruyue chuckled softly twice, she closed her eyes and decided to remain silent.
Feng Jingtian gently released his hands, took one last look at the girl with her eyes closed, and turned to stride towards the door, his red figure disappearing under the sunlight.
It was only after his departure that Mu Ruyue opened her eyes…
She understood that once Feng Jingtian left, she would probably not have peace, so leaving was indeed the best protection for her, as the people from the Lan Family would not let her off.
But Feng Jingtian oversimplified everything.
If she had strength, she could completely protect herself; as for now, she was nothing but a powerless being, bewildered by how Feng Jingtian could make such a promise in the menacing environment of the Feng Family.
However, no matter what, seeking a man’s protection was something Mu Ruyue never needed, especially if that man was Feng Jingtian…
Mu Ruyue looked at her palm and a faint smile curled the corners of her mouth.
Only by breaking through to the Innate level soon could she protect herself from harm, and compared to men, she trusted her own prowess more…
Within the backyard, led by Lan Xin, a group was furiously advancing towards Mu Ruyue’s location. Perhaps because Feng Xiang had already promised Feng Jingtian, he had instructed all members of the Feng Family not to intervene.
Lan Xin lifted her leg and fiercely kicked open the door; her arrogance accentuated by her appearance as her beautiful eyes soon fell upon Mu Ruyue and she issued a cold snort.
“Wench, now that Feng Jingtian isn’t here, I’d like to see who can protect you. Do you think you can become the Young Madam of the Feng Family? Stop dreaming, that position belongs to my sister Lan Yue, but since sister Lan Yue is kind-hearted and didn’t come to teach you, a husband-snatching wench, a lesson herself, I’ll do it for her!”
The thought that Feng Jingtian had slapped himself because of this woman made Lan Xin clench her teeth in anger, her eyes glaring fiercely at the young girl sitting calmly on the bed.
It must be said, this woman was truly stunning; her beauty wasn’t just from her looks but also from the composed demeanor that radiated from within that was even more mesmerizing.
Even when faced with so many provocations, she remained calm and unruffled without displaying any panic.
No wonder Feng Jingtian was taken with her, but it’s a pity that even though she might look good and manage to appear calm and composed, she was nothing more than a useless person who couldn’t make a real stand.
Wasn’t dealing with such a useless person a piece of cake?
“They’ve finally come?” Mu Ruyue smiled faintly, her gaze turning cold as an ancient pond, “I thought as soon as Feng Jingtian left, you would follow immediately, yet you still made me wait a while.”
“Keep pretending,” Lan Xin huffed, convinced that the girl’s composure was all an act; in her heart, she must be scared to death but too concerned with face to show it.
