Feng Wu Is Brilliant! (6)

Why did she get the feeling that Xuan Yi was behaving differently today? And did he seem more talkative than usual?2

Feng Wu said, "I'll pay you a hundred-fold."

Xuan Yi chuckled. "Little Feng Wu, do you think I'm in need of small change like that?"

Taking a deep breath, Feng Wu looked into his eyes. "Chaoge is mortally wounded and she needs those Cleansing Bee Pills, which you don't really need at the moment. Please let me use them. I'll owe you a big favor."

Xuan Yi only smiled, but wouldn't reply.

Feng Wu darted a look at the tent entrance.

Xuan Yi said casually, "Feng Xun has gone to His Royal Highness and won't be back for a while."

"So, you came prepared." Putting the dagger away, Feng Wu stared at Xuan Yi. "We'll talk outside!"

Holding his sword between his crossed arms, Xuan Yi followed Feng Wu out.

Once they walked behind an ice wall, Feng Wu narrowed her eyes in an intimidating manner.

"Xuan the Second, speak your mind." She stared at him.

Feng Wu believed that she knew Xuan Yi well enough to know that he wouldn't turn away from the wounded. It was obvious that he had his own reasons.

"It's nothing, really."

"I can tell there's something behind it. Just say it."

"I won't put it that way."

"You sent Feng Xun off on purpose before coming to me and you're using Cleansing Bee Pills as bait. If that's not deliberate, I don't know what is."

"Well…" Xuan Yi rubbed his nose.

"You've been acting strangely these days. What's going on?" Feng Wu narrowed her eyes and looked Xuan Yi up and down.

"No, I haven't." Xuan Yi didn't sound so sure.

"You used to be as prim as an old man. What happened? You're all nosy and meddling."

Xuan Yi looked embarrassed. He then stared at Feng Wu. "Do you want those Cleansing Bee Pills or not?"

Feng Wu said, "Tell me what's on your mind."

Xuan Yi rubbed his nose again. Feng Wu's intense gaze made him fidget a little. "Actually… I was going to save those Cleansing Bee Pills for myself."

Feng Wu nodded. "Alright."

"But if you really want them… We'll leave it up to God's will."

"What do you mean by 'God's will'?"

"Easy. Let's make a bet."

"What bet?"

"The simplest one. How about rock, paper, scissors? I'll give you those pills if you win. But if you lose… I can still give you those pills, but on one condition."

Feng Wu smiled a little. There we go.

Xuan Yi lowered his head and whispered something in Feng Wu's ear.

Feng Wu's face darkened immediately!

"What's that supposed to mean?!" She flared up.

Xuan Yi shrugged. "You heard me. It's up to you whether to take the offer or not."

In Xuan Yi's hand was that bottle of Cleansing Bee Pills, which cost next to nothing in the outside world, but was invaluable here.

Feng Wu took a deep breath.

"What will you get out of this? Nothing!" Feng Wu was torn inside, for that offer was so… She felt like freaking out just thinking about it.

"You can always say no." Xuan Yi turned to leave.

"Wait!" Feng Wu called after Xuan Yi.

The teenager smiled a little.

"Fine. Alright." Feng Wu ground her teeth.

Her top priority now was Chaoge. If that wound was left untreated and something else unexpected happened… Feng Wu couldn't take that risk.
