Refining the Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 1078 – Maternal Instincts

Qin Yu entered the carriage with a face full of black lines. Feature soon sat down. She held up a book with a ‘gorgeous’ cover and put on an appearance of carefully reading it.

At the side, Mian Ya kept her head low as she prepared tea. Her cheeks seemed to turn red as the steam brushed against her face.

The two children had no flaws, but it was naturally impossible for children to completely hide their emotions with their disposition.

The two nine-tailed demon fox kids were still pale. They constantly glanced at Qin Yu, a strange and pitiable look in their eyes.

The Nine-tailed Demon Fox Clan were born with a high level of intelligence. They knew from early on what they needed to understand and what they didn’t need to understand.

They certainly knew just what Feature and Mian Ya were quietly talking about when they whispered to each other beneath their breath.

They really couldn’t imagine it. Such a carefree and extraordinary person was actually…was actually…he was just too pitiful!

Qin Yu’s eyes twitched and blue veins rose up on his neck. If looks could kill, he would have cut Feature to dozens of pieces by now.

This damned woman, just what had she said? Did she really think he wouldn’t do anything because he dreaded her status!?

“Feature…”

“Ah, I haven’t said anything at all. You have to believe me! It’s Mian Ya…she figured it out herself!” Feature said with a flustered panic. The book in her hands fell to the floor with a loud thump.

Qin Yu almost laughed from anger. I didn’t even say anything and you already know what I am speaking about? If you are so capable, why don’t you just rise to the heavens!

And also Mian Ya. It seemed the lesson he gave her using Spring Breeze 13th Madame’s hand wasn’t sufficient. He would need to leave a deeper impression on her so that she knew men weren’t allowed to be ridiculed in some aspects.

That’s right, not even a little bit was allowed.

If they did it once he would hate it, if they did it twice he would hate it, and if they kept on doing it he would still keep hating it!

The carriage came to a sudden stop. After a light cough, Black Astral’s voice rose up from outside, “Sir, miss, a visitor has come.”

Feature’s eyes brightened. She stared at Qin Yu and said, “I apologize. I will never tell anyone about this later. Cooperate with me on this and don’t ruin my plans!”

When she finished speaking she glanced at Mian Ya.

This nine-tailed demon fox woman felt as if she had received a life-saving pardon. The look in Qin Yu’s eyes had really left her scared just now. She quickly stood up and opened the carriage window.

Outside, a convoy of carriages had stopped not too far away. Blue Wave stood outside and when he saw a window open, he revealed a dashing smile.

“Miss Feature, it’s such a coincidence to meet you here again.”

Feature had a calm expression and she comported herself with poise and dignity. All of the strange behaviors she displayed before had disappeared.

Looking at her putting on such airs, Qin Yu’s lips twitched. He thought that when it came to acting and deceiving, women possessed an inconceivable talent.

He considered ruining her plans and watching this woman leap into the air…this thought percolated in his mind for a moment before he told himself to endure it.

Seeing her constantly banter back and forth with this person at the auction hall, even teasing him with words, no matter what the reason behind it, it had still taken a great deal of effort. If he really ruined her plans and she became enraged out of shame, there was no telling what she would do.

“Oh. So it’s Sir Blue Wave. It’s a coincidence meeting you here today. May I ask where you are going?”

Blue Wave was overjoyed. She had taken the initiative to ask what he was doing. It seemed that his decision to have a ‘chance meeting’ moment was effective.

Everyone here was smart, so it was naturally impossible to meet by chance. If they met again today, it proved that Blue Wave was taking the initiative to approach her.

After the auction, he had endured for a long time but eventually couldn’t hold it in and decided to rush here to see her. He would use the somewhat shameful method of a ‘chance encounter’ as an excuse to greet her.

Although it was a bit funny saying this, when he thought about it he could feel the entanglement and cuteness in it. This was evidence of his attentiveness.

And women, no matter what background or personality, had different attitudes towards men that pursued them.

So, Feature knew all of this but didn’t expose it; that was giving him enough face. Not just that, but she had taken the initiative to ask him where he was going, bypassing all the awkwardness.

Everything indicated the things were progressing in a manner much smoother than expected.

Perhaps because she was a royal and also had a formidable background, she was inexperienced in this aspect.

If true, capturing her heart would be much less difficult than he thought.

This was undoubtedly the best news to Blue Wave. The reduction in difficulty was one part of it. When it came to this kind of woman who was just getting interested in things like love, once she recognized him she would never let go.

If the two could truly arrive at the same place in the future, this would play a crucial role in it.

Blue Wave’s thoughts raced as he maintained his composure. He said, “I heard that your brother came into conflict with Spring Breeze 13th Madame…this woman has an extremely mysterious background. It’s impossible to say that she could be disadvantageous to you. But if she ruins your fun, that’s not good. So today, allow me to escort you out of the city. Consider me to be acting as a guard – a way to repay miss for yielding to me at the auction.”

He paused, as if afraid Feature would refuse him. “After all, Miss Feature never gave me a chance to retreat in the following auctions.”

Feature blinked her eyes, “How did you know we were leaving the city?”

Blue Wave was at a momentary loss for words as his face flushed red and panic rose in his eyes. He hesitated repeatedly before Feature smiled and said, “However, I still must thank Sir Blue Wave for your kindness. But won’t this be too troublesome for you?”

“Ah…no, no it won’t…this is my honor!” As if afraid she would go back on her word, Blue Wave mounted his carriage and the convoy followed behind. The two groups made their way towards the city gates.

When Blue Wave sat down in his carriage, all of the panic on his face vanished, replaced with a smug self-satisfaction.

As he thought, women liked men that appeared a little nervous and stupid in front of them.

It gave them a sort of self-confidence and pride that they could see everything and that all was within their grasp.

Because of this, it was easy for them to lower their guard. They would even feel some sympathy and protective instincts for that man.

Perhaps he could call it…a woman’s inborn maternal glory?

Of course, it didn’t matter what it was called. What was important was that Blue Wave discovered he had taken another step forward to his goal.

Perhaps before long, he could achieve what he wished and hug that arrogant royal woman in his arms, recklessly ravaging her.

As Blue Wave was indulging in his fantasies and feeling a fire burning in his chest, in the carriage in front of him, Feature narrowed her eyes and jeered, “That little thing, he really is courting death.”

Qin Yu glanced at her. “I think that you can tell me a little about your plans first. For instance, that person behind us. What do you want from him?”

Feature rolled her eyes. “Do you think my judgment would be wrong? Is there anything on his mind that is worthy of me remembering?”

Qin Yu furrowed his eyebrows. “Then what are you doing all of this for? Don’t tell me it’s only for your own amusement.”

Pa –

Feature snapped her fingers and looked at Qin Yu as if she never imagined he was such a smart person. “Congratulations for having the correct answer!”

Qin Yu clenched his jaws and roared, “Feature!”

“I only spoke the truth, so why blame me if you don’t believe it?” Feature raised her hand and lifted up the ‘gorgeous’ book cover once more. “There are many scenes in this that depict a young master harassing a beautiful girl. Although it’s refreshing to read, there is one point about it that leaves me dissatisfied. Why does the young master in these stories always harass the girl, and why does she always fall in love with him in the end, become willing to do anything and everything for him…because of this ridiculousness, I have to speak up for all beautiful girls!”

Qin Yu’s face darkened, “Speak logically!”

Feature stood and placed her hands on her hips. “I want to let everyone know that beautiful young girls can also play with young masters in the palms of their hands! They can make them feel joy with just a smile and despair with a single rejection!”

Qin Yu was left speechless. If anyone else said this he would definitely not believe them. He would even curse them out loud and ask if they were taking him for a fool.

But this person was Feature.

He had said this woman was strange and bizarre countless times before. He still didn’t fully understand her, but he knew that when it came to her, there was nothing that was impossible.

Could it be that she had gone through so much effort to act out this nonsensical play for such an incomparably ridiculous reason?

Hoho, she really had too much spare time!

Qin Yu closed his eyes. Although he guessed that this matter wasn’t exactly what Feature had said, since she didn’t want to explain herself there was no point in asking. Once the drama reached the peak, he would naturally understand everything.

With Feature’s personality, she could play around but she definitely had no patience.

So Qin Yu thought that this Blue Wave boy in the rear carriage would be happy for another day or two before being ruthlessly kicked into the mud.

Tsk tsk. At that time, he hoped that fellow’s expression wouldn’t be too splendid.
