Chapter 287: Their Suspicion III
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The members of the Fengyun clan had been checking on Tang Yu’s background ever since she came into Fengyun Manor, but none of them were successful.
It turned out that Tang Yu had never gotten onto anyone except the people in the Tang family. Moreover, Tang Yu was secretly apprenticed to the lady of Fengyun Manor. Hence, the Tang family was not aware of it.
Back then, the master of the Tang family—Tang Luo, brought a woman who had lost her memory back to the manor. As the Tang family was afraid that this woman might ruin the Tang family’s reputation, they had covered it up, even the servants in the Tang family had no idea that there was such a woman staying in the manor.
Moreover, Rong Yan had never left the mountain behind the manor. Hence, the people of Fengyun Manor could never find her.
However, Feng Ying did not give up checking on Tang Yu as he believed that he could ultimately find the lady of the Fengyun Manor.
“Hong Yu, it must be very hard for you.” Qing Yuan felt sympathy for Hong Yu.
“Don’t worry about me. Tang Yu wants me to serve her as she knows that the Lady of the Fengyun Manor was very good to me. The only thing that upset me is that Tang Yu had taken over Fengqing Court.” Hong Yu shook her head with a faint smile on her face.
Even if Tang Yu was truly the Lady of the Fengyun Manor’s apprentice, Fengqing Court was meant for the Lady of the Fengyun Manor’s daughter and she had put in a lot of effort in building Fengqing Court. She would take her daughter back once she had taken her revenge. Now that Tang Yu had settled down in Fengqing Court, when her daughter returned to the manor, Fengqing Court was no longer a brand new court.
“Well, we can’t do anything to her now. Just let it go.” Feng Ying sighed, as his heart ached.
After all, everyone in Fengyun Manor had poured their blood, sweat, and tears into Fengqing Court. Now that Tang Yu had simply taken it over. Naturally, their hearts were broken.
However, they simply could not do anything to Tang Yu. Hence, they could only focus on searching for the lady of Fengyun Manor.
After Feng Ruqing had signed the contract with the spirit beasts, she had bid all the spirit beasts goodbye and left the Forest of Spirit Beasts.
There were two petite maidens walking after Feng Ruqing. Suddenly, Feng Ruqing stopped in her tracks. The petite maiden behind her did not manage to stop in time and bumped into Feng Ruqing’s back.
Biting back the pain, Tang Yin rubbed her red nose and raised her head to look at the lady before her. Her eyes were flooded with tears.
“Why are you stalking me?” Feng Ruqing’s brows knitted together as she asked.
Pursing her lips together, Tang Yin knew that Feng Ruqing had a bad impression of her. Even though Feng Ruqing seemed unapproachable and cold, she was actually warm and caring. Otherwise, she would not have put herself in trouble by messing with the people from Fengyun Manor because of Tang Yin.
“I… I want to stay with you. Didn’t you agree that I just need to pay rent to do so?” Tang Yin lowered her head bashfully.
“I said that I will consider. After all, I am not sure of your background. If you are here to harm me…” Feng Ruqing raised her eyebrows.
Hearing this, Tang Yin panicked. She raised her anxious face that was covered with dirt.
“I won’t harm you.”
Feng Ruqing’s eyes scanned Tang Yin’s body from top to toe.
‘This little maiden is gullible and cannot even hide her own feelings. Even if she wants to harm me, she can never make it.’
“Let’s see how you can afford the rent. Let’s get back to the imperial city now.” Feng Ruqing headed toward the imperial city. As she had left the city for a few months, the emperor must be extremely worried about her. Hence, Feng Ruqing did not want to continue wasting time with Tang Yin.
