- Chapter 39 - Exposing the Truth on the Spot
As soon as he finished speaking, Nan Gong Feng led Xiao Qingcheng through the main hall, along the colonnade, and around the small garden towards the wing’s entrance.
From a distance, Xiao Qingcheng immediately spotted Xiao Feng and Lin Fen guarding the entrance to the wing.
At that moment, Lin Fen was pulling a pretty young woman into the wing.
The sounds of intimacy from inside the wing still echoed loudly, filling the air.
“Ah? Is Lady Xiao planning to add another beauty to my second brother’s harem?” Nan Gong Feng’s voice, imbued with a sense of primal energy and authority, radiated in all directions.
Everyone present instinctively turned their heads towards Nan Gong Feng upon hearing his voice.
In just one glance, they were all stunned on the spot.
Nan Gong Feng, dressed in a white cloak and walking gracefully with the moonlight behind him, approached with an air of superiority. Behind him followed a cold, golden-masked woman.
The two of them seemed like celestial beings, looking down upon the crowd of insignificant people before them.
Xiao Feng was the first to regain his composure. He stepped forward respectfully to block Nan Gong Feng’s path: “Greetings, Eldest Young Master Nan Gong!”
Lin Fen, standing not far away, quickly snapped back to reality and hurriedly pushed the courtesan she was holding towards Nan Gongyu’s inner room.
“Quickly! Hurry up!”
“I sell my art, not my body!”
“Isn’t money what you want? Here, ten thousand taels of silver, just get on that bed.”
Lin Fen whispered to the courtesan, negotiating a price.
From a short distance away, Xiao Qingcheng watched the scene with a cold smile.
“Master, what should we do? This good show is about to be ruined! Boohoo…”
“Don’t worry. Nan Gong Feng is still here. He won’t let his trip be in vain.”
As soon as Xiao Qingcheng finished speaking, Nan Gong Feng addressed Xiao Feng in front of him: “You all are guarding the entrance to my second brother’s bedroom, chatting with him through the window?”
Xiao Feng’s face darkened, and after a moment of hesitation, he gritted his teeth and said: “Actually… actually, this matter is really hard for me to talk about.”
Seeing that he couldn’t hide it anymore, Xiao Feng quickly thought of another tactic.
Nan Gong Feng raised an eyebrow, looking at Lin Fen who had already entered the room, and playfully questioned Xiao Feng: “Oh? What matter?”
“It’s… it’s that Qingcheng, the child has done something foolish and actually… with Young Master Nan Gong…”
When Xiao Feng said this, Nan Gong Feng’s face momentarily stiffened.
“Whoa! Master, unfasten your sleeves, this divine beast is going to go out and beat him up!”
“I’ve seen ruthless people, but someone as ruthless as Xiao Feng is the first time I’ve seen.”
“Oh? So you mean… Miss Xiao is rolling around with my second brother, disregarding ethics and morals?”
Nan Gong Feng narrowed his eyes, his expression dark as he questioned.
Xiao Feng, under pressure, deliberately shouted loudly: “That’s right! It’s Xiao Qingcheng who disregarded ethics and morals, rolling around with Young Master Nan Gong, losing her own reputation!”
Xiao Qingcheng couldn’t help but question: “Then may I ask the head of the Xiao family, without seeing the person… how can you be sure that the one lying naked in bed is Miss Xiao?”
“Who is this young lady? Being in my Xiao residence, how dare you question the head of my family?”
Xiao Feng’s face turned displeased as he shouted at Xiao Qingcheng.
“This is my junior sister. She came over today to catch up with me.”
Nan Gong Feng interjected, pulling Xiao Feng’s attention back to himself.
Xiao Feng pursed his lips, suppressing the redness in his eyes, and replied as respectfully as possible: “Since this young lady is neither from the Xiao family nor the Nan Gong family, she shouldn’t meddle in matters unrelated to her.”
Xiao Qingcheng folded her arms and let out a cold laugh: “How can it be unrelated? Since my senior brother wants to ask, I naturally have to help get to the bottom of it.
Just now, we saw Second Miss Xiao deliberately blocking our way. But as for Eldest Miss Xiao, we haven’t seen her along the way.”
At this moment, Lin Fen had already heard Xiao Feng’s loud hint and disguised the courtesan to look like a disheveled Xiao Qingcheng.
Xiao Qingxue was also partially sobered up by a cup of cold water from Lin Fen.
“Mother! Why are you here?”
Lin Fen immediately slapped her: “Wretched girl! How could you do such a thing! Hurry up and jump out of the back window and leave. If Eldest Young Master Nan Gong catches you, you won’t be able to marry the young master!”
Nan Gongyu, whose desires had not yet subsided, saw another young woman standing nearby and pulled her onto the bed without hesitation.
Xiao Qingxue, who was barely clothed, quickly dressed herself and looked at Lin Fen with disheveled hair: “Mother, where did this wretched woman come from? She mustn’t contaminate my Yu!”
Lin Fen growled anxiously: “What time is it now? Are you still counting these petty gains and losses? Do you know how many people outside the door want you dead? Hurry up and leave!”
Lin Fen’s words finally brought Xiao Qingxue to her senses.
“Mother, I’m leaving now!”
With that, Xiao Qingxue opened the back window and jumped out.
Lin Fen glanced back and quickly returned to the entrance of the room, opened the door, and shouted: “Heaven! How could Qingcheng be so shameless?”
The maidservants guarding outside also sighed: “Yes! I said I couldn’t find this third miss. It turns out she ran to Young Master Nan Gong’s bed!”
Xiao Qingcheng outside the door heard everything clearly.
Little Pearl inside the sleeve was already furious: “Whoa! I can’t stand it anymore! Master, move aside, I’m going to kill them!”
“Don’t be impulsive! Don’t you think… someone is missing from the scene right now?”
“Who? Oh, right! The Esteemed One! Let the Esteemed One come and clear your name! Master, wait for me, I’ll go find the Esteemed One!”
As soon as Little Pearl finished speaking, Nan Gong Feng spoke again: “No matter who is inside, we should see them with our own eyes to get to the truth, right?”
Lin Fen tidied up her appearance and walked towards Nan Gong Feng and Xiao Qingcheng: “Of course, Eldest Young Master Nan Gong is right. As the saying goes, to catch an adulteress, you need to catch both. Without solid evidence, it is indeed hard to explain clearly.
However, since Qingcheng is now barely clothed, how about… let her sit on the bed in the inner room, and we sober up the young master and ask him directly?”
Xiao Qingcheng let out a cold laugh: “Lin Fen’s calculations are quite good!”
Little Pearl was anxious, tumbling around inside the sleeve: “Master, master! Open your sleeve! I want to go out! I want to go out!”
“Calm down first! Your Miss Three is standing right here! What are you afraid of?”
Regarding Lin Fen’s distortion of facts and pointing a deer as a horse, Nan Gong Feng let out a cold laugh: “Hmm! Since Lady Xiao has spoken, let’s go take a look.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the black-clothed guards behind Nan Gong Feng suddenly lined up and charged forward.
All the guards gathered their primal energy,
with a “boom!” sound,
the entire wing collapsed in an instant.
The surrounding brick walls shattered, and except for the two walls forming an angle in the inner room that did not collapse, the rest… turned into ruins and debris.
Amidst the loud noise, the wobbly bed was directly presented before everyone’s eyes.
