Godly Empress Doctor - Chapter 1289
Chapter 1289: Slander
Feng Wu went back to Fallen Star Yard to find a lot of people waiting for her.
Feng Xun and Xuan Yi were there, as well as Jun Linyuan!
They were all sitting in the courtyard, and Feng Xiaoqi was pouring tea for them.
Feng Xun shouted in an exaggerated tone, “Hey, Feng Xiaoqi, what is it with your family and geniuses? Why is everyone here making breakthroughs so quickly?!”
Feng Xiaoqi was about to answer, when he heard footsteps. He threw himself into Feng Wu’s arms when he saw who it was.
“Sister! You’re back!”
Feng Wu patted Feng Xiaoqi on the head. He was usually a naive and shy boy, and entertaining guests was still a bit too much for him.
But it was a necessary part of being a grown up, so Feng Wu was determined to keep training him.
Interacting with other people was as important as his cultivation practice.
A grasp of mundane affairs was genuine knowledge; an understanding of worldly wisdom was true learning. Feng Wu didn’t want Feng Xiaoqi to turn into a nerd that only cared about cultivation.
“Why are all of you here?” Feng Wu asked Feng Xun in confusion.
Feng Xun grinned. “For fun, of course! Didn’t you hear?”
“About what?” Feng Wu was perplexed.
Feng Xun said, “That sister of yours, isn’t Dugu Mengxi supposed to marry her? They’re bringing the betrothal gifts today. How can you not know that?”
As a matter of fact, Feng Wu really didn’t know.
She asked curiously, “Does the Dugu family really want her as a daughter-in-law?”
Feng Xun smiled. “Not exactly. My info says that Dugu Mengxi will take her in as a concubine.”
That was to say, Feng Liu wasn’t going to be the official wife.
Feng Wu found that very reasonable.
However, Feng Xun said, “Of course I won’t let them do that, so I said no.”
Feng Wu stared at Feng Xun. “But why?”
“Don’t you understand? You little fool.” Feng Xun jabbed Feng Wu’s smooth forehead with a finger. “Feng Liu is your sister. If she becomes the Dugu family’s concubine, your reputation will be ruined along with hers. That’s why I won’t let it happen.”
Feng Wu was speechless.
“You little fool…” If those words had been from Jun Linyuan, she would be halfway through the fourth trial already.
“By the way, I heard that you went to Imperial College.” Feng Xun didn’t care about Feng Liu, but he wanted to know everything Feng Wu did.
It suddenly occurred to Feng Wu that Jun Linyuan needed to be present at the trials seven days later. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to finish her task.
So, she nodded immediately. “That’s right. I’m going to skip Year 1.”
“That’s my sister! How ambitious!” Feng Xun gave her a thumbs up. “With your capability, you totally deserve to be in Year 2.”
“If that’s the case, make sure you all come to watch me take the challenge seven days later.” Feng Wu grabbed the opportunity and invited the three men.
“The challenge?” Feng Xun raised an eyebrow. “Are you saying that Qiao Lingxiao won’t let you skip grades?”
Feng Wu smiled. “It doesn’t matter. I’ll prove my capability.”
Feng Xun was confused. “But he should have let you. That old man likes talented students the most; he should think very highly of you.”
Chaoge added, “Chief Qiao’s daughter is Qiao Yi.”
Feng Xun immediately saw the light. “So, someone has been saying bad things about you.”
He then smirked. “She’s not the only person who knows how to do that. After what she did to you, I’ll make sure she’s no longer a teacher of Imperial College!”
