Chapter 1845: A Return Note
Although Ying Su made this vow, inside, she was probably already thinking about getting revenge and making her pay back double.
Ning Shu just smiled. Ying Su really shouldn’t treat everyone as fools. Vengeful people like Ying Su would eradicate others from the roots even if they were only slightly offended. Ying Su was extremely ruthless.
With how terribly she had treated Ying Su, it would be strange if Ying Su would let her off. When dealing with people like Ying Su, one must completely exterminate them.
There was no way she could help Ying Su find a body. Ying Su could easily cripple the original host considering the original host’s meager ability. It would be like leaving a bomb for the original host.
“Feng Qingqian, I have already made a vow. Now you should be relieved,” said Ying Su, looking at Ning Shu.
Ning Shu replied indifferently, “You want me to run errands for you with this powerless vow and work so hard looking for a body? I’m not as stupid as you think.”
Ning Shu closed her eyes to cultivate and ignored Ying Su’s shouts.
Early next morning, the elderly maid that served Madam Feng brought over a set of clothes and some jewelry.
The elderly maid said stiffly, “Fourth Miss, these are the clothes sent by the madam. After you have freshened up, please go to the palace with the family to celebrate the birthday of the empress dowager.”
Ning Shu replied gently, “Thank you for coming here, and thank Mother for me.”
The elderly maid stiffened her face and nodded, but deep in her eyes, there was disgust and contempt for Ning Shu.
Ning Shu simply didn’t care about the attitude of this elderly maid. The other party was no longer indignant. She was still the fourth miss of the Feng family, and no matter how irritated this maid was, there was nothing this maid could do.
The elderly maid ordered a few maids to help freshen her up. Ning Shu marveled as she looked at the person in the bronze mirror who looked very beautiful after dressing up a bit.
The original host of this body was a budding beauty and that was why Ying Su later turned out to be so gorgeous. If the foundation wasn’t good then how could she have attracted so many men?
After all, men looked at a woman’s exterior to decide whether or not to dig deeper into the woman’s inner beauty.
Ning Shu came out of the Feng Residence with her hair in a thick bun fixed by hairpins.
Feng Chang and Madam Feng were waiting for Ning Shu. When Feng Feiyan saw Ning Shu, she sarcastically said, “Fourth Sister is really delicate. Even Father and Mother have to wait for you.”
“Enough. Feiyan, we are leaving.” Madam Feng swept a glance at Ning Shu and helped Feng Feiyan on the carriage.
Feng Feiyan glared at Ning Shu, but Ning Shu didn’t care about these sorts of conflicts between small girls. She wasn’t going to bicker with a girl who was a generation younger than her.
Ning Shu tilted her face towards Feng Chang and spoke, “This daughter came late.”
“Just mind your manners at the banquet and call for me if there’s anything,” said Feng Chang, then he rode off on his horse.
Ning Shu got into the palanquin that was at the rear end of the procession.
Inside the palanquin was a box. Apparently, it was a birthday gift that the Feng family had prepared for her to give to the Empress Dowager.
During the entire banquet, Ning Shu held no presence. She basically did not speak, and no one noticed Ning Shu. There was only one person who was always looking at Ning Shu with deep eyes that seemed to be stifling a great many words.
It was the second prince who kept winking at Ning Shu, but she simply ignored him.
The second prince wanted to speak with her alone, so he was very depressed at her lack of response. Even the jade pendant that he sent to her last time had been returned.
There was even a note clipped to it, with very messy and crude handwriting that read: “Your Highness, this subject already has a wife and family.”
