Chapter 4 - Preparing To Watch A Show

“Wicked girl, what do you want?!”

A blast of sound was heard, glinting silver flashed, and several silk threads aimed straight at a sleepy man on the tree.

Then it was seen that the half-sleepy man leaped flexibly, escaping the murderous attempt. He pulled and wrapped the silver threads around his hands and landed lightly.

“Not bad!”

The white-haired old man snorted, “Do you have any knowledge? This is the ice jade silk. I have tried very hard to find it for you.” Unexpectedly, he wanted to send her away with two words.

Feng Lingxi put the silk thread away and gave him a bear hug with a smile on her lips.

“Very well, Old man. Good job!”

The old man’s face was red. He slapped her hard, “Wicked girl, you actually dare to take advantage of me!”

Feng Lingxi touched her nose and laughed. Whenever she was happy, she forgot that the world was reversed regarding the relationship between men and women. In addition, she paid special attention to it because men and women weren’t supposed to touch each other. But the Old man was so old, what was there to take advantage of?

Looking at Feng Lingxi’s disapproving expression, the old man pointed at her nose and warned her, “I tell you, don’t go out to harm men in the world…”

Feng Lingxi felt a terrible headache. Every time she came back, she had to hear about the same thing repeatedly. She herself was about to consider herself as an absolute wicked girl beyond redemption. A girl who was specialized in abusing respectable family and devoted herself in plucking flowers.

Ignoring the old man’s lecture, Feng Lingxi leaned against the trunk of the tree, and closed her eyes.

This nagging old man was her life-saving benefactor, nicknamed Mad Old Man. Mad Old Man was actually a great man. It was said that he was an absolute evil fox spirit which attracted the souls of many young girls, but nobody looked down on him, and he was still a lonely man.

But now, he had been living in seclusion and isolation in the mountains. Resolutely, no longer in contact with the worldly disputes, but he would go out from time to time to steal a chicken and pet a dog.

Because of Xie Li’s betrayal, she was fortunate to have traversed to a world where women dominated. However, because of her strong adaptability, she didn’t have any problem as she could still live freely.

This body had the same appearance as her original one, but the internal force of this body was much weaker than herself. She was lucky to meet the Mad Old man who passed on his skills to her. After training, added up with her original skills, she received unexpected results which made her very satisfied.

No matter where she went, she always had the ability to live well. She understood that in her previous life, she was brought back to the Feng family because of her gift.

Of course, she adapted quickly to this extraordinary society, thanks to the memory that remained intact.

For this world’s Feng Lingxi’s encounter, she only sighed. She always seemed to be hurt by the closest people, first relatives, then lover.

Some things, she could understand, but couldn’t accept, let alone forgive. So, she had been living in pain.

Originally, she thought Ou Yang Lingge would be her redemption. But in the end, she only got another kind of pain.

The empress was so proud that she didn’t even want to kneel. But for a person, she was willing to kneel to Ou Yang Ying, that stubborn old man. Feng Lingxi didn’t want much. As long as Ou Yang Lingge supported her, she could firmly go on.

In this society, where a woman can have three husband, Feng Lingxi, as the empress’ daughter, thought of marrying only Ou Yang Lingge.

Unfortunately, she got disappointed.

Thinking about it, if it was her, even if she liked that person, she would have given up long ago. When she took ninety-nine steps for the sake of their love, he was supposed to have taken at least one step. After all, love is a matter of two people.

She would have the opportunity to be Feng Lingxi. Feng Lingxi was assassinated after drinking to soothe her sorrow, fell off the cliff and died. But then she was saved by the Mad Old man.

Looking at the wicked girl who hardly heard his words, Mad old man regretted saving her. He had previously felt that the unlucky child looked very honest and kind, but who knew that he had saved such a trouble.

Thinking that he had saved such a seductive beauty, even him, an old man with thick-skin face, turned red. It could be imagined that if she went out to hook up with those ignorant little boys, what kind of tragedy would it be. If that was the case, he would really feel guilty.

Remembering that charming face and seeing the ordinary face in front of him, the Mad Old man stopped his chattering and asked, “Why do you bother to change your appearance? Isn’t that annoying?” That appearance didn’t really suit the girl’s personality.

Feng Lingxi lazily replied, “Old man, if you were not afraid to reveal your whereabouts and your relationship with me, would I need to change every time I come back?”

The Mad Old man sneered, “Who made your present position so important?”

Feng Lingxi was speechless, her position wasn’t important, alright? She just had a sinecure position.

The Mad Old man seemed to be impatient with her nonsense again and started to drive her away, “Get your stuff and roll quickly. Don’t rush back next time!”

Got it! She rarely came back to see him and everytime he would dismiss her. He always ignored her even when she was good to him. Touching the ice-jade silk in her arms, Feng Lingxi decided not to argue with the old man.

Out of the small valley where the old man lived, Feng Lingxi called Ta Xue. She jumped on the horse’s back and laid with her legs crossed. She let Ta Xue choose the direction and rode slowly to spend more free time.

After walking for most of the day and waiting for Ta Xue to stop, Feng Lingxi opened her eyes and sighed, “Do you want to see the sunrise?”

This was a cliff. It was perfect to see the sunrise.

Feng Lingxi jumped down from the horse’s back, reached out and patted the horse’s buttocks. It seemed helpless.”Since you think so, let’s wait until the sunrise tomorrow.”

Ta Xue snorted, and stomped its horse hoof. It was as if Ta Xue was protesting against her decision. Anyway, Feng Lingxi ignored it.

But her desire to see the sunrise was doomed to fail.

She sent Ta Xue away and was ready to find a comfortable branch to sleep on. All of a sudden, there was a sound of fighting in the distance, and the sound was getting closer.

“Little poison, you can’t escape today!”

A roar pierced the sky. Feng Lingxi raised her eyebrows, then looked around for a place to hide in. The branch she was looking at was not strong enough. It couldn’t hide an adult. So the plan of hiding could not be implemented.

Then she began to look at herself. In order to avoid the old man hating her for exposing all the information of his whereabouts, she made herself look like a weak scholar. Would those people bully a weak women? She touched her face again in deep thought. The face she was wearing was too ordinary. So, there was no need to worry that someone would be interested.

Well, in fact, she was a woman, and it was a world of women. So, her worries were superfluous.

In general, her situation would be fairly safe. Would she be able to sit back and enjoy the show?
