Chapter 324 - Insidious Woman (2)
Wu Xuanyi has never been this humiliated before. She was clearly speaking to Qu Xing Xu loudly through the thousands of gallops of horses and chattering of soldiers around them. As expected those who were closer to them heard what she had said and also witnessed how Qu Xing Xu completely ignored her.
Her cheeks reddened in embarrassment.
Although everyone knew that Qu Xing Xu was a cold-hearted man, he wouldn\'t blatantly ignore her since they\'ve known each other for a few years and were able to converse more casually.
Unlike the women who tried so hard to get close to Qu Xing Xu by using every means they could think of, Wu Xuanyi prided herself to be the only woman who has ever crossed the boundaries that no one has dared to cross. For example, she could freely talk to him and even stand next to him without worrying about getting dragged away.
And because of that, many thought that she would be the Duchess of Xin.
Unfortunately, Wu Xuanyi\'s dreams and everyone else\'s expectations were thwarted by an unknown woman who suddenly appeared out of nowhere while Qu Xing Xu was back to the capital.
Some of the men who were close enough to Qu Xing Xu knew him better and thought that the woman he found in the capital was just someone who caught his interest, but who would have thought that he would actually marry that woman named Lin Xiaofei.
Thus not only Wu Xuanyi was shocked to learn of this event, but it involved everyone wanting to know more about Lin Xiaofei.
But who knew that Qu Xing Xu didn\'t even let anyone find a single thing about Lin Xiaofei other than the basic things that were already widely known in the capital. Aside from being the granddaughter of Lin Xiaomeng, she was a bully and a foolish and spoiled young lady who shouldn\'t even know how to truss a chicken.
So, how the hell did she catch Qu Xing Xu and marry him?
Did she use evil and insidious methods to get him to marry her? Or did the Great General Lin force Qu Xing Xu to marry her?
Of course, these questions were mostly what entered one\'s mind but they soon threw it at the back of their heads, thinking that it was too absurd since they all knew who Qu Xing Xu was and knew how capable he was. So, how could an old man who already retired from the war zone possibly force Qu Xing Xu to marry his granddaughter?
But if it was not that then, there could only be one or two answers to their question. It must be that the woman named Lin Xiaofei was an exquisite and rare beauty or perhaps, Qu Xing Xu really fell for her.
In truth, their guesses weren\'t really far from the truth. However, there were still some who didn\'t believe this and it was Wu Xuanyi and her family. Among them were also some people who will never believe that Qu Xing Xu would settle down in this lifetime.
There were also the three brothers who at first didn\'t meet Lin Xiaofei. Now, the three didn\'t have anything to say anymore after they met Lin Xiaofei.
Wu Xuanyi still wanted to go over and talk to Qu Xing Xu, but as if there was a tall wall of thick steel between them, her efforts were wasted and she could only stand next to Ni Zixuan.
"Xuan ge, did you meet Brother Xing Xu\'s wife?" Wu Xuanyi asked.
Ni Zixuan paused and gave her a look. Then he looked as if he was contemplating before he nodded at her. "We did see her."
Seeing that Ni Zixuan was willing to speak to her and tell her about the woman who stole the man who was supposed to be hers, Wu Xuanyi couldn\'t hide her malicious intention.
But who was Ni Zixuan? He was one of the four brothers who were feared by a lot of people. He was also the son of a prestigious wealthy family. How could he not tell what was inside her mind?
The few years that he had helped her get close to Qu Xing Xu was only because he thought that she was good enough to be Qu Xing Xu\'s partner. He also treated Wu Xuanyi like a little sister who was precious to hima and thus, he would always try to go along with her wishes.
But lately after Qu Xing Xu got married and she found out about it, Ni Zixuan thought that this little sister of his was not as good as he initially thought she was. She didn\'t even try to hide her malicious thoughts in front of him and showed unshed tears to him just because she thought that he was the most gullible and easy to fool after he spoiled her too much.
Thinking back to the last time he conversed with Lin Xiaofei, Ni Zixuan\'s lips curved into a smirk. That sister-in-law was certainly something else. Something more interesting than Wu Xuanyi at least.
"She\'s really beautiful." Ni Zixuan told Wu Xuanyi. The latter showed her distaste immediately after he said that as though she hated that compliment and wished she could tear the person who received such compliment to pieces.
"What the... So, she only has a pretty face. How could Brother Xing Xu like her?" Wu Xuanyi grumbled and lowered her face so that only those who were five meters away from her could hear what she was grumbling.
Sitting on his horse beside Ni Zixuan, Qi Yandi could hear her words and instantly felt that she said something wrong. He frowned and said to her, "We shouldn\'t talk about this. It\'s Qu Xing Xu\'s wife and if he hears us talking about her, he would surely get angry."
"But why?" Wu Xuanyi was one who didn\'t easily give up. She continued to say, "I\'m only curious to know more about her. I\'m sure everyone also wanted to know and meet her."
Qi Yandi snorted: "Ha! And what kind of identity does everyone have to meet her? Even us brothers couldn\'t easily meet her because that lovesick brother of ours securely kept her hidden from us!"
