Chapter 1648: Unt.i.tled
Master Jue suddenly turned around and stared at Feng Wu with cold eyes. “Have you spoken with the princess?”
Luckily, Feng Wu had learned many things from Catnine, and she was able to answer the question.
“Yes, master,” she said respectfully.
“Remember, nothing is more important than the seed of the spirit source this time!” Master Jue said solemnly.
“Yes, master.” Feng Wu nodded.
Just then, Feng Wu felt a shadow towering over her.
She wondered why Master Jue was standing so close.
Did he have to stand so close to his subordinate?
She was still wondering, when a finger raised her chin.
WHAT?!
Feng Wu went stiff, and her eyes widened.
Had she been discovered?
Was Master Jue teasing her now?
Should she make a move?
What if Master Jue didn’t have any evidence?
Feng Wu was still hesitating, when the hand suddenly gripped her chin!
“What are you thinking?” Master Jue didn’t sound so stiff now.
Feng Wu didn’t know what to say.
It wasn’t that she didn’t want to speak; she just didn’t know what to say.
Because if she said the wrong thing, she would expose herself.
“Jiang Yan, you’re still so stubborn.” He sounded a little helpless, and there was also a little affection in his voice.
Jiang Yan?
Feng Wu’s stomach lurched when she heard the name.
That was familiar. She had heard it before.
Ah, right —
It came back to her.
She had seen the name on Steward Mu’s plate.
That name was Jiang Yan.
Feng Wu heaved a sigh in relief, because —
Master Jue didn’t realize that this “Catnine” was a fake one. He was acting strangely precisely because he thought he was with Catnine.
However —
Master Jue’s affectionate touch gave Feng Wu a strange idea.
Could it be really like that?
If that was the case… Feng Wu shuddered. No, it couldn’t be like that…
However, luck seemed to be working against her. While she was trying to convince herself, Master Jue put his hands on her shoulders.
This wasn’t happening!
Feng Wu’s stomach lurched and she almost fought back.
“Yan, you’re always like this.” The affection in Master Jue’s eyes gradually turned into sorrow. “Why are you always running away from me?”
Feng Wu didn’t know what to say.
Was this the cruel, mysterious man in black she met before?
So, he would show sadness and weakness with certain people. However…
A chill ran down Feng Wu’s spine.
Judging by Master Jue’s att.i.tude toward Jiang Yan, she couldn’t imagine how much rage and hatred he would unleash on her when he learned that she had killed Jiang Yan.
At that thought, Feng Wu felt uneasy.
With that, she shuddered.
But her shudder only made Master Jue want to make another move. He reached out with his big warm hand and caressed Feng Wu’s cheek.
“Yan, for you, I can betray the whole world. Why do you always feel ashamed?”
Master Jue slowly stroked Feng Wu’s face. “You’ve worn this mask for so long that I’ve almost forgotten what you look like.”
As Master Jue caressed her face, his finger…
