Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

With a wave of her hand, Lin Ling called out to the entire neighborhood, “Auntie Wang, Grandma Zhang, Uncle Zhao… Come here! These people are saying bad things about Miss Wu!”

WHAT?!

Everyone running their small businesses along the street exploded at Lin Ling’s words!

Auntie Wang charged at them with a spatula in her hand. “Who was it? Who said bad things about Miss Wu?!”

Holding a kitchen knife, Grandma Zhang tottered toward them. “Who are these people? What did they say about Miss Wu?”

Uncle Zhao, Auntie Zhou, Grandpa Zheng… Everyone who had been busy with their own chores ran to Lin Ling’s side with various tools as weapons. They then surrounded Feng Xun.

Feng Xun had been standing with Jun Linyuan and the others, but was separated from them by the crowd.

Circling Feng Xun, everyone brandished their weapons and yelled at him angrily.

“Who are you to say such things about Miss Wu?!”

“How dare you insult Miss Wu!”

“I see you’ve got some balls!”

–

Feng Xun was dumbfounded!

What the heck?!

Had these people lost their minds?!

“L- let go of me! Stop tearing my clothes!” Feng Xun was pulled this way and that by what felt like a hundred pairs of hands and he thought that his robe was going to be ripped off.

“Miss Wu is a great young lady! She saved my boy’s life! My family would have been ruined if it wasn’t for her! No one can say anything bad about Miss Wu when I’m around!” Uncle Zhao glared at Feng Xun.

Feng Xun was speechless.

“Exactly! I’d be long dead if it wasn’t for Miss Wu! She’s my savior! How dare you say she doesn’t go anywhere apart from her bedchamber! What kind of person are you?!”

Feng Xun was still speechless.

“Miss Wu went to help a patient in the next town just the other day! How can you say such things about such a kind person? Do you even have a heart at all? What an ugly personality you have under that pretty face!”

Feng Xun kept his silence.

Seeing Feng Xun stumble back in bewilderment as the folks jabbed their fingers in his chest, Fairy Muyao patted her chest, feeling very lucky.

It was a good thing she hadn’t stepped out just then, or she would be the one getting attacked now.

With his hands behind his back, Jun Linyuan watched what was happening, lost in his thoughts… However, he seemed to look past the crowd, his gaze fixed somewhere in the distance.

“Who was it? Who said unpleasant things about Miss Wu?”

Just then, an elderly couple hobbled toward them, one holding a rolling pin and the other a cleaver.

Despite their old age, they moved rather fast. The looks on their faces were very eager.

“Grandpa, Grandma —” Lin Ling rushed to their sides, steadying them.

“Xiao Ling, who’s saying bad things about Miss Wu? Tell me, quickly! I’m going to kick their asses!” Holding a cleaver, Grandpa Lin was panting from all the running, his voice filled with righteous indignation.

Next to him, Grandma Lin was also furious. She had always been a mild old lady and had never lost her temper like this. Grabbing Lin Ling’s hand, she said loudly, “Xiao Ling, how can people nowadays be so ungrateful?! Throwing mud at Miss Wu after all those things she has done for us! Now, tell me who the bad man is!”

Feng Xun was speechless.

He hadn’t expected things to turn out this way from a single sarcastic comment!
