Chapter 756: Shen Yunya Looks for Feng Tianlan
The next day, Feng Tianlan prepared to cultivate in seclusion in order to break through to Earth Supreme. However, just before she started, Azurite came forward to report Shen Yunya’s arrival, claiming that she wanted to meet Mobai. However, the message had been delivered to her instead, and it was clear that she wanted to meet her, not Mobai.
Shen Yunya followed closely behind Azurite and entered Si Feng Pavilion. As she walked in, she caught sight of Feng Tianlan sitting in the courtyard, in the midst of watering a patch of white orchids. Her white silhouette shined in the sea of white orchids, giving her the likeness of a goddess. This scene seemed to possess a timeless form of stillness.
“Miss Feng, it’s been a long time since we’ve last met.” Shen Yunya walked over and greeted Feng Tianlan with elegance.
Feng Tianlan’s hands paused midair as she lifted her eyes to glance at Shen Yunya. She was also wearing a white robe, although it was embroidered with crab apple flowers instead. She noticed the dark circles around Shen Yunya’s eyes and smiled. “I heard Miss Shen is about to get married?”
Fortunately, they had met one year ago, and fortunately, she now had Mobai by her side. Otherwise, she would not have been able to control her hatred for Shen Yunya, and there would have been no way for her to display a smile on her face while suppressing the contempt in her heart.
A bashful hint of red surfaced on Shen Yunya’s face. “Yes. I heard that Feng Tianlan had arrived and recalled our past affinity. Hence, I came to gift you a wedding invitation and invite you out for a round of celebratory wine.” As she said this, she held out a bright red wedding invitation.
When Feng Tianlan saw that scarlet wedding invitation, she placed her watering ladle down before looking up at the bashful Shen Yunya once more. She extended a hand to receive the invitation. “I will definitely be there. Only, my appearance will steal the limelight from Miss Shen. I’m only worried that Miss Shen will regret inviting me.”
“Although Miss Feng possesses a beauty that is capable of toppling cities, the bride is still the prettiest woman in the world. You won’t be able to snatch the limelight that easily. So, Miss Feng, feel free to attend,” Shen Yunya said. Her smile was especially wide and confident. When her eyes fell on the half heart ring on Feng Tianlan’s fingers, she only glanced at it for a second before looking away.
Feng Tianlan gripped the wedding invitation in her hand before glancing at Shen Yunya, who still had a bashful grin plastered on her face. At that point, she still could not discern what was on Shen Yunya’s mind. She handed the wedding invitation over to Azurite. “Since that is the case, I will definitely be there.”
Shen Yunya’s thoughts and intentions were truly too profound. She was also especially careful and cautious. At present, Feng Tianlan still had no idea what Shen Yunya’s intentions were in coming, so it was best if she did not act at whim.
“I personally delivered a wedding invitation to Miss Feng. Why don’t we sit down and have a cup of tea?” Shen Yunya glanced at the stone table at the side, as well as the tea set on its surface.
Feng Tianlan exchanged a glance with her and smiled. “Of course we should. Azurite, serve the tea.”
Shen Yunya only took a seat once Feng Tianlan had sat down. “I heard Brother Jin mention that you all went to Xuantian Continent three months ago. I wonder where Miss Feng visited in the last three months. Did you go through any hardships?”
“I just casually walked around.” Feng Tianlan gave a cursory response. Shen Yunya probably wasn’t the one who wanted her killed, she thought. Unless there were suspicions that she was Dai’er and Shen Yunya was willing to ignore the possibility of killing the wrong person as a precaution.
Additionally, Shen Yunya recognized Sister Lin’s calligraphy. She might have intended to incite animosity between her and Sister Lin in the event that she had truly returned.
“Have flowers started blooming on my face?” When Shen Yunya noticed Feng Tianlan staring fixedly at her face, seemingly in contemplation, she smiled and stroked her face with an outstretched hand.
Feng Tianlan snapped out of her stupor. “You’re about to become a bride very soon. You should indeed grow a few flowers on your face so that you’ll become prettier.”
Shen Yunya grinned. “I feel the same way. On the wedding day, I’ll put on a few floral ornaments. Brother Jin will definitely like it.”
Feng Tianlan smiled wordlessly at Shen Yunya. She was about to become a bride. Had she specifically come to Feng Tianlan’s place to engage in small talk? Or was she really here to feel her out?
