Chapter 1203: The Engagement

Lu Yeming smiled when he saw Tang Mo’er reject him with such decisiveness.

“Also, Yeming,” Tang Mo’er looked at Lu Yeming and asked, “Who are you bringing with you to Silver Mask King’s engagement banquet? Why don’t you take Qingqing with you?”

It was clear Tang Mo’er wanted to make him a pair with Jun Xiqing.

Lu Yeming didn’t have any expression on his face, he had one hand in his pocket and he answered, “I have something on tonight, so I’m not going either.”

...

At night, at the South Palace.

Two maids pushed Feng Lingxue into a room. “Go inside, Young Master is still waiting for you inside!”

The room door was slammed shut.

Feng Lingxue could barely stand up straight. She lifted her eyes, noticing Xuan Mu, who sat on the bed while giving her a cold-eyed stare.

After a period of extensive treatment, Xuan Mu had recovered his health but he was still impotent. He could no longer get laid, he was just like a eunuch. Though his body was fine, his heart was broken into pieces.

Xuan Mu glared at Feng Lingxue. The way he was staring at her was just like a vicious scorpion that was sinister, poisonous and very perverted.

He was just like the South Duchess, his hatred for Xuan Ying was all directed towards Feng Lingxue now.

There was no way they could do anything to Xuan Ying so they could only change their target and deal with her. They tormented her, humiliating her every single day.

That was Xuan Ying’s purpose behind sending her to the South Palace.

“Lingxue, change into this outfit, you don’t need to do any chores today.” Xuan Mu pointed at an outfit placed on the counter.

Feng Lingxue took a look at it. “Where are you taking me?”

“Where?” Xuan Mu laughed creepily. “Brother Ying is getting engaged with Shi Xiaoxiao today. Of course I must take you with me to their engagement banquet.”

Engagement banquet?

Oh, that’s right, he was getting engaged tonight. But why must she be there?

He had everything in life now. Status, power, wealth... Everything. She on the other hand was so pathetic, she didn’t want to appear as a laughing stock.

She was human too.

Her heart ached, it hurt so much she wanted to dig her heart out.

“No, I’m not going!” Feng Lingxue shook her head.

“You don’t want to go? Did I give you a choice? Even if you don’t want to, you must go tonight!”

“I’m not going!” Feng Lingxue turned around to run away.

But just after a few steps, when her hand was on the doorknob and just as she was about to get out, Xuan Mu charged over and grasped her slender arm forcibly.

Piak! Xuan Mu lifted his arm, giving her one tight slap.

The corner of Feng Lingxue’s mouth bled, her head started spinning after being hit. She staggered, falling onto the carpeted ground.

Xuan Mu bent over, squeezing her face, exerting so much force that her face contorted. “Feng Lingxue, you slut! I was courteous last time and you really think you can ride on my head now? Who the hell do you think you are? You’ve slept with Xuan Ying so many times and now that you’ve lost your worth, Xuan Ying kicked you away and gave you to me. His intentions are clear, he sent you here for me to torture you!

“Don’t worry, I can’t let my Brother Ying be disappointed, I’ll make sure to do my best in torturing you! For however much pain Xuan Ying inflicted on me, I’ll make sure to inflict double the amount, ten times, even a thousand times more pain on you. Ha ha ha ha!” Xuan Mu laughed maliciously as he leered at her.

By now, Feng Lingxue was numb to everything. Only one thing rang inside her ears, ‘Xuan Ying’...

...

At the Snow Mountain Residence, the engagement banquet.

The rich and affluent of Country A all gathered at the engagement banquet. It was really a spectacular scene.

The star of the show, Xuan Ying, stood under the bright lights in the middle of the hall. He held a glass of wine in his hand and was surrounded by a group of magnates, they were all sucking up to him.

The daughters of distinguished families all snuck furtive glances at Xuan Ying. He wore a custom-made black shirt, perfectly ironed till there wasn’t a single crease. He was tall and suave, his gold cufflinks shiny and were embossed with an ‘X’.

This ‘X’ was just like its owner, exuding a cold, devilish, beastly and overbearing charm.

Silver Mask King, Xuan Ying, seemed to be a little ahead of the race now in front of the West Duke, Lu Yeming. ‘X’ was everywhere now, just like a gust of frosty wind from hell, it really made one shudder without even doing anything.

Everyone had to be careful around Xuan Ying and if given the opportunity, they would gladly suck up to him. Even those daughters of distinguished families were filled with admiration for him.

Xuan Ying didn’t have any expression on his face. The few magnates continued talking but he didn’t say a word, only bringing the glass to his lips and he took a sip of it.

The few magnates exchanged glances, they had all noticed that he wasn’t exactly in the mood today, he seemed disinterested.

But why was he like that?

He had reached the pinnacle of success, what else could he be troubled with?

“Ying.” The other star of the show, Shi Xiaoxiao walked over. Dressed in an off-shoulder white gown, Shi Xiaoxiao wore her makeup well and she was very elegant tonight.

—-Wow, Miss Shi is really pretty tonight.

—-That’s right, Silver Mask King and Miss Shi are really a match made in heaven.

—-Silver Mask King, Miss Shi, wishing you a blissful marriage and that you will have children soon.

Everyone congratulated them.

Shi Xiaoxiao walked in front with her high heels, holding Xuan Ying’s muscular arm intimately. “Ying.”

Xuan Ying gave her a glance and had a poker face on. They suddenly heard a familiar voice. “Brother Ying, Miss Shi, we’re late. Congratulations.”

Xuan Ying lifted his head, everyone made way for Xuan Mu and Feng Lingxue. Xuan Ying glanced at Xuan Mu before his gaze landed on Feng Lingxue.

Feng Lingxue wore a black dress with a high lace collar and flared sleeves. The dress was cut off at the ankles and she wore a pair of stilettos.

Today she was dressed very modestly. Socialites like Shi Xiaoxiao would wear off-shoulder styles and reveal their calves and slender arms but she was fully covered up. However, this modest dressing made her appear even more contrasting compared to the rest.

With a tiny face, radiant skin, long silky hair and red lips, once she appeared, she easily won over every other woman in the room.

There was a reason why women hated Feng Lingxue so much. That was because whenever she appeared, all women would pale starkly in comparison to her. She really killed all of them with her appearance.

Even the star of the show, Shi Xiaoxiao was nothing compared to her.
