Chapter 753: This Is My Consort
Feng Tianlan did not deny this and nodded her head. “We’ve known each other for ten years. Brother Jin, Sister Lin, and He Lian. I appreciate all the good they’ve done for me. You’re important to me, but they, too, are important people to me. If I lose any one of them, my life will be plagued with regret.”
Familial love, friendship, and romantic love. These three entities coexisted. She would not give up on a single one, and they were all equally important to her.
“Alright.” Si Mobai turned his head and agreed affectionately as he glanced at Feng Tianlan’s chin. He would help Lan’er with whatever she wanted to do as long as it didn’t involve her leaving his side.
Feng Tianlan lowered her head and swooped over to plant a kiss on his cheeks. “And, given the way Shen Yunya treated me, how can I allow her desires to be fulfilled?”
Xi Jin was the crown prince. At this point, there were only a few days left until the wedding day. Emissaries from various countries and innumerable guests had already arrived. If he annulled the marriage at this time, it would be detrimental to his reputation. Hence, voluntarily making cancellations wasn’t going to be a possibility for him.
She made drastic preparations. Furthermore, the 22nd day of the fourth month was a special day – It was the anniversary of her death in her previous life, as well as Shen Yunya’s wedding day. If she disrupted her marriage affairs at this time, Shen Yunya would probably go mad.
When Si Mobai saw the smirk on Feng Tianlan’s face, he knew that she had concocted an evil plan. He smiled dotingly – Lan’er’s happiness was better than anything else.
“Your husband needs to head out to do some stuff. If you’re bored, you can ask Xiao Xiao to come over and accompany you. Azurite will also attend to you,” Si Mobai said.
Feng Tianlan loosened her hand and stood up hastily. “Alright, go on then. These next two days, I want to break through to Earth Supreme. Hence, I won’t have much time to spend with you. You can finish what you need to do.”
Si Mobai gently acknowledged her words as he stood up. “Okay. I will get someone to watch over you.”
“Don’t you have matters to attend to? Why are you walking inside?” Feng Tianlan asked.
Si Mobai turned his head back slightly to look at her. The corner of his lips slipped into a devilish grin. “Because just now, two meat buns burned your husband. So, I need to go and take a cold shower.”
“Meat buns?” Feng Tianlan was puzzled. Then, she lowered her head and stared at her bulging chest. Instantly, her face turned red as she glared furiously at him. “Hooligan.” After a soft harrumph, she turned around.
When he saw her like this, Si Mobai laughed cheerfully. Only his days with Lan’er were worth living.
Feng Tianlan watched him head in, and the sound of running water could soon be heard from inside. After thinking for a moment, she sat before her dressing table and realized that everything that needed to be done had been done. Hence, she retrieved some Spiritual Water from her Pill Scroll Realm before cleansing off the layer of Face Changing Elixir from her face. Gradually, her original appearance was restored, and she changed into her female attire.
Wearing her male disguise and going out with Mobai would cause the world to misunderstand that Mobai was a cut sleeve*. It was still better if she reverted back to her female appearance.
Si Mobai exited the shower room and saw Feng Tianlan sitting before the dressing table, seemingly searching for something. He went forward and noticed that she was digging through her chest of earrings. Hence, he stretched out a hand and picked up a white jade earring. Bending over, he helped her put it on. “Why are you back to wearing your female outfit?”
“Although it’s convenient being a male, it’s still better to be female when I’m with Mobai.” Feng Tianlan watched as he clumsily helped her put on the earring and suddenly felt as though their pairing was truly one of equality.
Si Mobai softly acknowledged her words, and when he saw how befitting the earring was when it was worn on her, he said, “Since you’ve switched back to female clothes, then you should stay with your husband at the front. In a while, your husband will bring you out to shop along the streets. Have a look and see what you’re still lacking.”
“Alright.” Feng Tianlan nodded her head.
Si Mobai grasped her hands and helped her up. When they arrived at the Bailan Alliance’s board room, someone immediately added a chair next to the head seat.
“Master.”
Si Mobai got Feng Tianlan to take her seat first before he sat down as well. His eyes swept past the four people below him. In a cold voice, he said, “This is my consort. All of you are to bear this in mind. In the future, my consort’s words are equivalent to my words. There is no room for non-compliance.”
