Chapter 758: Next Time, I’ll Have Self-Control

Shen Yunya pressed her palms against her face, which had just been slapped. When she noticed Xi Lin’s indolence, hatred instantly rippled her heart. They had both been daughters of the Shen Family, but Xi Lin treated her with such indifference from the very start. Now, she had even slapped her across the face!

Ever since she was young, she had never been slapped by someone. Xi Lin was the first person to do so.

Xi Lin glared coldly at Shen Yunya before sneering, “In the future, you are not to address this Princess as Sister Lin. You are not fit. And the title of my Imperial Sister-in-Law? You are also not fit!”

“Zhaoyang...” Shen Yunya started to say.

Xi Lin cut her off coldly. “Get lost. This Princess wants to speak to Miss Feng.”

Shen Yunya clenched her fists and bowed her head slightly, saying, “Yes.” Then, she turned to take her leave.

Xi Lin glanced at her departing silhouette before taking a seat opposite Feng Tianlan. She tossed Shen Yunya’s used teacup straight at Azurite. “I heard she’s been here for a long time. How did you manage to hold a conversation with her for so long?”

Azurite held the teacup and looked at Feng Tianlan in confusion.

“Throw it out. She despises filth,” Feng Tianlan said.

When she heard Feng Tianlan’s words, Xi Lin cupped her hands around her face. With a languid smile, she said, “As expected, Dai’er knows me best.”

“It’s Tianlan,” Feng Tianlan corrected her with a frown on her face.

Xi Lin nodded her head in acknowledgment. She looked up and carefully scrutinized Feng Tianlan’s figure. She was truly identical to a painting, possibly even more beautiful than the painted figure. If the subject of that painting was a goddess, then the Tianlan before her was a goddess that had walked straight out of a picture.

“In the past, your beauty was the subject of everyone’s envy. Unexpectedly, you are even more beautiful now. No one can even dare to be envious of you,” Xi Lin said.

Feng Tianlan watched her indolence, a drastic contrast to her cold demeanor a while back. She could not help but furrow her brows. “You shouldn’t have hit her.”

Shen Yunya was someone who held grudges, and Sister Lin’s sudden sternness towards her would only raise suspicions.

“Even if she is someone that cannot be beaten or killed, I still need to give her at least one hit in order to vent my hatred. Otherwise, it’ll be too difficult for me to endure.” Xi Lin noticed Feng Tianlan’s worried expression. “Don’t overthink things. See, she didn’t even dare to show a trace of anger. She had to take proper consideration of the situation. What more, I am still a Princess in any case. What can she do to me?”

“Sister Lin...”

Xi Lin chuckled and tugged her hand. “Alright, alright. Next time I’ll have some self-control. Don’t keep that grave expression on your face anymore; it’s so unsightly. In a while, the Demon King might scorn you for having the face of an old woman at such a young age.”

When Feng Tianlan heard her, she was at a complete loss. However, she still spoke solemnly, saying, “When I told you my identity, I didn’t want you to act on it. I simply wanted you to help me convince Brother Jin. Don’t assume that Shen Yunya won’t dare to do anything. She is willing to endure it all as long as the time is not ripe yet.”

This was a lesson that she learned only after suffering a tragic death. She didn’t want Sister to be the subject of Shen Yunya’s hatred as well.

Xi Lin obediently nodded her head. However, she still could not help but retort, “Originally after that incident, my interactions with her lessened. I also didn’t like her addressing me in that manner. Back in those days, I only treated them well because they were always stuck to you. In the end, they turned out to be a pair of white-eyed wolves.”

Truly, that slap was considered very lenient to her. If it weren’t for the bigger picture holding her back, she would have killed her. She wanted to kill Shen Yunya!

“Why did you visit?” Feng Tianlan looked at her with exasperation. Although Xi Lin appeared very indifferent and indolent on the surface, the moment you provoked her, the imperious wrath of her imperial status would immediately descend on you.

“After you left yesterday, my Imperial brother came as well. I spoke with him for a while...” Xi Lin wanted to recline backward, but she realized her seat had no backrest. Hence, she continued, “Can we speak inside? Without a backrest, sitting is really tiring.”
