Chapter 22 What are you anyway?



Another day of missing Rong Qi. It had been several days since Rong Qi had escorted her home after the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet at the palace.

She had no idea where he had gone; he hadn't even told her. That wretched Rong Qi. As the youngest daughter, she couldn't very well go to the Phoenix Prince's mansion to look for him.

Suddenly, Feng Qinghuang had a flash of inspiration. She could go to the Underworld Pavilion to ask. Why hadn't she thought of that before?

Feng Qinghuang's body moved faster than her mind; the moment the thought crossed her mind, she had already leaped onto the roof.

She didn't even bother to answer when her own maid asked her where she was going.

Tinglan sighed, her young mistress was getting worse every day...

Her soul had been completely captivated by Prince Rong. It had only been a few days since she last saw him, and he was sighing and groaning in the courtyard every day, making her feel depressed.

Who knows what he's thinking now, he's vanished again.

Feng Qinghuang was naturally unaware of her maid's thoughts; at that moment, he was already at the entrance of the Underworld Pavilion.

Feng Qinghuang pushed open the door and entered. The room was empty, with only a table and no one else around.

The last time she came, Rong Qi took her directly to the third floor, so she didn't know the procedures for handling matters at the Underworld Pavilion.

"Hello, is anyone there...?"

The sound echoed in the room.

As soon as the words were spoken, a stunningly beautiful woman floated down from the second floor, dressed in a red veil, her beauty breathtaking.

Hongwu stared at the little girl in front of her; her face was unbelievably beautiful, and she even seemed to have some baby fat.

Her eyes were clear and innocent, like a little white rabbit.

Hongwu took a liking to the little baby at first sight.

Hongwu leaned close to Feng Qinghuang and whispered, "Little white rabbit, this isn't a place for you."

Feng Qinghuang tilted her head to look at her: "Little white rabbit? Me? Why can't I come?"

Hongwu gave a wicked smile: "Do you know what the Underworld Pavilion does?"

Feng Qinghuang nodded: "Of course I know, otherwise why would I come here?"

This answer truly surprised Hongwu. Since the little white rabbit knew this and still came, someone must have a deep-seated grudge against her.

This doll is so cute, how could anyone be her enemy?

She made up her mind: she would help her get revenge without taking any money.

Hongwu didn't know Feng Qinghuang's identity, which is why she kept asking her.

Hongwu: "Little white rabbit, tell me, who do you have a grudge against? I'll help you get revenge."

Feng Qinghuang was confused. What revenge? Her? She wasn't! She was just here to gather information.

Feng Qinghuang shook her head: "Nobody has a grudge against me?"

Hongwu looked at her in confusion: "Then what are you doing at the Underworld Pavilion?"

Feng Qinghuang clenched her small hand: "I came to inquire where Rong Qi is now and what he is doing? I haven't seen him for several days."

Hongwu didn't really care, as long as there was no enmity.

But then he suddenly realized that this little girl had come to inquire about her master's whereabouts, and he spat out the tea he had just drunk.

Who are you talking about?

"Rong Qi!"

"Cough cough cough..." Hongwu confirmed that she hadn't misheard and almost choked on her tea.

Hongwu: "Why are you asking about... why is Prince Rong?"

Feng Qinghuang: "Oh dear, sister, I know about Rong Qi's relationship with the Underworld Pavilion. You don't need to hide it from me."

Hongwu looked puzzled; how did this little girl know?

Seeing the confusion on Hong Wu's face and her refusal to speak, Feng Qinghuang felt an eerie silence.

Feng Qinghuang chuckled and reached out her small hand to take out the jade thumb ring that Rong Qi had given her.

Upon seeing the jade thumb ring, Hongwu jumped to her feet.

Pointing at the jade thumb ring, he asked Feng Qinghuang, "You... how could you..."

Feng Qinghuang smiled and said, "Aqi gave it to me."

Hongwu no longer knows how to describe her feelings.

I thought she was an innocent little rabbit, but I didn't expect her to be such a ruthless person. She even managed to take down the Pavilion Master. This innocent little rabbit is amazing.

"Miss, only the two protectors and his personal guards know about the sect leader's whereabouts. I don't know anything about him."

Feng Qinghuang: "No need to call me Miss. My name is Feng Qinghuang. Just call me Huang'er, okay, sister?"

Hongwu stammered again: "You...you...you are that little princess?"

"Hmm, you got it right."

Feng Qinghuang was secretly delighted; she hadn't expected to be so famous.

Hongwu's mood was on and off today, like a rollercoaster. Luckily, she has a strong mentality, otherwise she would have collapsed.

Hongwu: "Phoenix, please wait a moment. I'll go and call two guardians in."

"Okay, sister."

Hongwu gave a slight bow and left.

A moment later, footsteps were heard, and two women and a man walked in.

The one in front is Hong Wu, who just went out. The two cold-faced ones behind her should be the two guardians.

The female protector Bai Qing stared at Feng Qinghuang for a long time. This was the woman who took her sect leader's jade thumb ring? She's not that great, just a little pretty, but what use is she? She can't help with anything, and she's so young.

Perhaps the master simply had a crush on her, and it was because she insisted on asking him for it that he had no choice but to give it to her.

Bai Qing turned to Hong Wu and asked, "Is this the person you were talking about, the one holding the master's jade ring?"

Hongwu nodded.

However, Hongwu found Bai Hufa's tone strange just now. When she went to find them, she had already explained that this person might be the mistress of the house, so how could Bai Hufa still dare to use such a tone?

Bai Qing snorted.

"Who are you, woman, daring to take our sect leader's jade thumb ring? Our sect leader only did it on a whim. I advise you to hand over the jade thumb ring obediently, otherwise..."

The male protector next to her tugged at Bai Qing's arm, signaling that she should be mindful of her status.

However, the male protector did not reprimand Bai Qing, presumably because he condoned her actions.

Feng Qinghuang looked at Bai Qing, who was furious, and was completely baffled. What was she angry about? Was she angry about her relationship with Rong Qi? Was she angry that Rong Qi gave her the jade ring? What did all this have to do with her?

Could it be...?

Feng Qinghuang stared intently at Bai Qing. Could this person like her Aqi? No way, Aqi is hers, and no one can take her away.

The little girl, Feng Qinghuang, got angry.

"And who are you? It's none of your business whether Aqi gave me the jade thumb ring or not. Whether Aqi did it on a whim or not is none of your concern. What are you anyway, and what gives you the right to ask?"

An angry Feng Qinghuang is not as harmless as she usually is.

Hongwu stared wide-eyed at Feng Qinghuang. If she was a little white rabbit just now, she was now a big bad wolf.

Bai Qing seemed to be angry when she heard Feng Qinghuang's words.
