Farmer Lady of Fortune, Imperial Concubine, Don't Be Too Sweet

Chapter 160: Why is it taking you so long to win?

There were glints and flashes of cold steel. Blood splashed, and screaming chaos reigned underneath them.

Everyone in each pleasure-boat on the lake suddenly turned like headless flies, looking for a place to flee.

“Feng Qingbai, here, throw it over there!”

“And over there, three people are surrounding Wei Hong. Throw, throw!”

“Wei Zi is also in danger. Quick, go and support!”

The young lady hanging in his arms kept exclaiming, commanding him around, and looking very much like coordinating the whole scene of the battle. Feng Qingbai’s mouth twitched. For some reason, he had the urge to laugh. 

Most of the black-clad people surrounded him – well, five, but his Shengsheng wasn’t nervous at all.

Was she so secure by his side?

For the first time in a critical fight, Feng Qingbai felt like laughing.

She could always give him unexpected joy in inexplicable occasions.

“Feng Qingbai, Wei Bai! Wei Bai is over there!”

“Shengsheng, you can’t throw it over there. If you throw it, Wei Bai will fall into the water along with them,” Feng Qingbai sighed helplessly.

“Oh,” Liu Yusheng paused, “Feng Qingbai, how many of these assassins can you deal with alone?”

“Put my best foot forward, ten.” Raising his hand to swat away the sharp blade stabbing in front of him and giving the assassin on his right a fatal blow, Feng Qingbai replied with ease.

“Wow! You are awesome!”

“…” Shengsheng, I don’t mind you praising me to your heart’s content after the fight is over.

“Then, how come it’s taking you long to win when you’re only dealing with five now?”

“…Shengsheng, I am carrying you in one hand now.”

“…”

The three hidden guards surrounding Feng Qingbai and keeping their enemies at bay, heard their conversation and almost simultaneously crashed down.

Even the black-clad assassins lurched for a moment.

Fifteen people attacked, but because of his concern for the woman in his arms, the end of the fight got delayed a bit.

It finally ended with the black-clad men’s corpses sunk in Xingyue Lake.

Justice court officials and soldiers arrived last. Feng Qingbai handed Wei Zi the aftermath to deal with, and took Liu Yusheng back to the small courtyard ahead of them.

On the way back, Feng Qingbai asked, “Are you scared, Shengsheng?”

“I’m not afraid. You’re here, aren’t you?” Liu Yusheng answered as a matter of course.

“What if I can’t?”

“What? You can’t what?”

Following behind the two, Wei Zi and Wei Hong looked at the sky and looked at the ground respectively, pretending that they weren’t hearing anything.

Before long, they heard their master grit his teeth, “… I can!”

The conversation ended. 

 Feng Qingbai felt that he had underestimated his girl all along.

He always knew that she wasn’t a doddering flower. He just didn’t expect her to be so bold to this extent.
