Chapter 473 Chu Feng: Madam, Do You Wish to Kill and Destroy the Heart?
"Madam, Madam, there is some excitement to watch outside."
Within the guest courtyard of the Extreme Cold Mountain Villa.
Chu Feng and Bing Yan were sitting before a tea table, discussing cultivation over tea. Just as their conversation reached a fascinating point, it was interrupted by Chen Qianqian's gloating voice.
"You little girl, we are not here to watch the excitement."
Chu Feng lovingly chided her.
Chen Qianqian tilted her little head and said with a smile, "But this time, the excitement is quite interesting."
"Oh?"
Chu Feng asked with a smile, "What excitement?"
"It's a middle-aged man, bare-chested, carrying thorns on his back, walking barefoot in the snow. Behind him, there is a woman. It looks like that story you once told us about, what was it called, apologizing..."
Chen Qianqian thought for a long time but could not recall the idiom.
"That is called 'Carrying Thorns to Ask for Forgiveness'. I told you to read more books, but you never listen. When we get back, I will punish you to copy a book a thousand times." Chu Feng said with a stern face.
"Ah?"
Chen Qianqian never expected that just watching some excitement would get her punished. She dreaded copying books the most, and in her heart, she resented the man who was the source of the excitement.
"You may go now."
Seeing the little girl's drooping head, Chu Feng waved his hand.
"Oh."
Chen Qianqian turned and left, planning to mock the man severely. Otherwise, wouldn't her punishment be for nothing?
She and the other little girl, Bai Qian, brought Cai Yu Hou to the entrance of the guest courtyard.
Soon, they saw the bare-chested middle-aged man walking towards them. Behind him, many people were pointing and whispering.
But the middle-aged man paid them no mind, his steps unhurried. The cold wind blowing against his body did not cause him any harm.
"This guy can't be coming for us, can he?"
Chen Qianqian murmured.
"He's definitely not coming for us. He must be coming for Madam."
Bai Qian added from the side.
"Madam is my mother. For him to be so disrespectful, it's only right for me, as her daughter, to teach him a lesson, right?" As Chen Qianqian spoke, a mocking smile appeared on her face.
Seeing this expression on her senior sister's face, Bai Qian knew the man was in for great misfortune. She said with a smile, "Senior sister is right. Cai Yu, absolutely do not let that man in later."
"Yes, Young Mistress."
Cai Yu Hou knew the tempers of these two young ladies well, and she was also happy to act on their behalf. She could teach others a lesson, and no one would dare to trouble her for it. Where else could one find such a good thing?
As they spoke, Bing Xiaofeng and Mu Rou had already arrived outside the guest courtyard.
Just as Bing Xiaofeng was about to speak, Chen Qianqian spoke first: "You audacious rogue! How dare you commit such an indecent act in broad daylight! Cai Yu, get him!"
"Wai..."
The word 'wait' had just left Bing Xiaofeng's mouth when he felt a Marquis Realm's pressure descend upon him.
It wasn't just him; even Mu Rou beside him was stunned. The curious onlookers were frozen in place.
Bing Xiaofeng's act of carrying thorns to apologize had already attracted a lot of attention. After all, he was the Young Master of the Extreme Cold Mountain Villa and held a high status within the villa. The person who could make him adopt such a humble posture to apologize was clearly a significant figure.
But who would have thought that the important figure in the guest courtyard would not give the Extreme Cold Mountain Villa any face, ordering an attack right away? Did they not hold their Extreme Cold Mountain Villa in any regard?
Slap!
A crisp slap echoed through the surroundings. Bing Xiaofeng spun around three times on the spot before he could steady himself. Just as he was about to explain, he saw another slap coming towards him.
"Stop!"
A loud roar soon erupted from the crowd.
Although the Young Master of the Extreme Cold Mountain Villa, Bing Xiaofeng, was of average ability and had secured his position through his father, he nonetheless represented the face of the Extreme Cold Mountain Villa.
For the other party to strike the Young Master's face within the Extreme Cold Mountain Villa, was that not striking the face of the entire Extreme Cold Mountain Villa?
Slap!
Cai Yu Hou paid no heed to such matters, fiercely slapping the other side of his face. Now both sides of his face were symmetrical, and it did not look so strange.
At this, the surrounding onlookers became incensed, glaring angrily at Cai Yu Hou and the others. Some even drew their weapons.
Mu Rou also recovered from her shock and quickly shouted, "Stop fighting, stop fighting, this is all a misunderstanding. My husband is here to apologize to Sister Bing Yan."
???
Hearing this, everyone present showed confused expressions on their faces.
Chen Qianqian was stunned for a moment, then said, "How audacious! How dare you utter the name of my master's wife?"
Mu Rou said, "Little sister, my husband is the younger brother of your master's wife. I am her sister-in-law. It is not presumptuous for me to call her by name."
Hearing this, the onlookers grew even more confused, and their gazes towards Mu Rou became very strange.
You see, this Young Mistress usually relied on her extraordinary background and looked down on everyone. Why was she so humble today?
Could it be that a truly remarkable figure had come to their Extreme Cold Mountain Villa?
This was fine until it was mentioned, but the mention made Chen Qianqian angry. She knew that her master's wife was displeased with her family.
She said with a cold face, "You should go back. My master's wife is already resting."
Mu Rou had not expected her self-punishment plan to fail before she could even use it, receiving a closed door. But when she thought that as long as she pleased Bing Yan, her child would have a chance to become a disciple of the Qiankun Great Sage Gate, she could only harden her scalp and say:
"Little sister, please trouble you to pass on a message. Just say that my husband and I have come to apologize to my sister."
Chen Qianqian's mouth curled into a slight smile: "Since you are a couple, why is it that only this uncle is carrying thorns to apologize, and not you?"
...
Mu Rou never expected that this little girl would be so difficult to deal with.
Just as she was at a loss for what to do, a cold voice came from within the guest courtyard.
"Let bygones be bygones. You may go now."
As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of Mu Rou and Bing Xiaofeng immediately became incredibly ugly.
They had not expected that even after lowering themselves so much, the woman was still unwilling to give them the slightest chance.
How detestable!!!
Mu Rou quickly composed herself and said respectfully, "Thank you for your understanding, Sister Bing Yan. I have already prepared the Wind Flower Courtyard. Please, Sister Bing Yan, come and stay for a few days."
Inside the guest courtyard.
Hearing this, Bing Yan did not respond. Instead, she turned her gaze to Chu Feng.
"Husband, what do you think their intentions are?"
Chu Feng said with a smile, "It's nothing more than two things. First, to seek your forgiveness, and second, to have you accept a disciple."
"Hmph!"
Bing Yan snorted coldly, "They've got their calculations all figured out. Do they really think I need this kind of insignificant family affection now?"
"Madam, do you wish to kill and destroy the heart?"
Chu Feng asked with a playful expression on his face.
Bing Yan asked, "What brilliant plan does my husband have?"
Chu Feng said with a smile, "What do you think it would feel like for them, if the thing they seek but cannot obtain was taken by someone they look down upon?"
Hearing this, Bing Yan's eyes lit up: "Husband, I didn't know you had this side to you. Let's do as you say."
