Scheidung ist eine Kleinigkeit - Kapitel 30
Volume 1: A Folk Heroine's Duel (5)
Jun Wuhen's brows had been furrowed ever since he stepped onto the pleasure boat. He utterly loathed the strong, nauseating smell of rouge.
“My Lord, if you want to back out, you can leave now.” Feng Xue raised her eyebrows, “but don’t even think about taking the pear blossom bracelet back.”
“No, it’s just that I hate the smell of rouge.” Jun Wuhen’s brows furrowed more and more. “I prefer the stench of a rotting corpse to that.”
Feng Xue paused, her shoulders trembling slightly. Suddenly, she laughed, her willow-leaf eyebrows curving upwards, a stark contrast to her previous indifference.
Jun Wuhen's brows also relaxed considerably.
Feng Xue's laughter was clear and melodious, like a nightingale singing in a valley, attracting the attention of everyone in the boat, even drawing out the nanny.
The old woman strode over, her slender eyebrows raised high, her eyes darting up and down as she carefully examined Feng Xue and Jun Wuhen.
The woman's attire was simple, yet she exuded an innate air of nobility. The guards behind her commanded respect without a hint of anger. The maid beside her was also quite beautiful. The man, dressed in black, possessed a domineering presence in his blue eyes.
The old woman thought to herself: These two are not people to be trifled with!
She quickly smiled and said, "Madam, young master, what brings you to our Drunken Flower Boat?" Then she looked at Feng Xue, "Madam, our boat does not usually entertain female guests, and..."
“Qingyi…” Feng Xue said calmly.
The woman in green immediately handed the old woman a heavy gold ingot, and the old woman's face lit up with a smile. "Of course, if Madam wishes to come and enjoy the song and dance, that's fine too. The dancers on our boat are all stunning beauties." Whether male or female, money makes a customer.
“Granny, I’m not the main character today!” Feng Xue looked at Jun Wuhen. “But what about this young master?”
"Hehe, if it's you, young master, then things will be even easier." The old woman laughed even more, gently fanning herself with her bright red feather fan, a strong scent of rouge wafting towards Jun Wuhen. "Which young master is looking for?"
His brows furrowed again. "Miss Lianxin."
The old woman's expression changed at first, then she said with a forced smile, "I'm sorry, Miss Lianxin has guests today. Please find another young lady, sir. How about Miss Lianyin? She's Miss Lianxin's younger sister, just as beautiful, and her singing voice is also extremely moving, and..."
"Miss Lianxin." Jun Wuhen narrowed his eyes, a chilling blue light flashing within them. Instantly, a dangerous aura filled the entire pleasure boat.
Even the old nanny couldn't help but swallow hard, but when she thought of Miss Lianxin's guest, she broke out in a cold sweat. The person above was someone she couldn't afford to offend!
It's better to offend only one than both.
The old woman's face immediately turned cold. She lightly waved her feather fan and said, "Although Miss Lianxin is not as good as Miss Shuangdie, she is still a famous girl in our Drunken Flower Pavilion. How could you possibly see her without a rich man?"
“Lotus, Heart, Aunt.” Jun Wuhen said each word slowly and deliberately, his blue eyes filled with a cold, eerie light, as if one had fallen into an icy pool in the twelfth lunar month.
The old woman gasped and staggered back a few steps.
"Granny!" A maidservant rushed forward to support her.
Immediately, a commotion erupted.
"Why is it so noisy?" Suddenly, a calm yet authoritative voice came from upstairs, and the downstairs immediately fell silent.
Upon hearing this voice, Feng Xue, Qingyi, and several guards all trembled.
Looking up, a man in a blue brocade robe slowly descended the stairs, followed by a beautiful woman. The man was none other than Situ Xingyun.

"Your Highness..." The old woman was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she couldn't even finish her sentence.
Situ Xingyun ignored the old woman. From the moment he saw Feng Xue, his brows were furrowed, just like when Jun Wuhen heard Situ Xingyun's name, a complex light flashed in his blue eyes.
The air in the entire pleasure boat suddenly became tense. At this moment, Feng Xue chuckled and went to greet him. She walked up to Situ Xingyun with a smile and said softly, "Has Your Highness finished your important business?" Her eyes glanced at Lianxin behind him.
At this moment, a hint of embarrassment flashed quickly in Situ Xingyun's eyes. His voice was a little nervous, as if he was afraid that he would be misunderstood by the people next to him. He quickly said, "It was just a coincidence that I ran into an acquaintance."
The people in the pleasure boat looked at the two of them in surprise, their eyes all focused on Feng Xue, and they all had the same question in their minds: Who exactly is this woman?
Feng Xue just smiled and remained silent.
Situ Xingyun was slightly annoyed and said angrily to Qingyi and several guards, "How have you taken care of the princess? How could you let her come to a place like this?"
Situ Xingyun's outburst revealed to everyone present that the woman was none other than Princess Fengxue, the Emperor's most beloved concubine and also the Princess Consort of Prince Pingyan. Some guests began to watch the scene with keen interest.
Was the princess coming to the pleasure boat to see the prince, or was the princess bringing a man to the pleasure boat?
Wow, this is going to be interesting.
"Your Highness, please don't be angry. Let Feng Xue explain herself first." Feng Xue's voice was gentle, her eyes flickering. "Is Your Highness sure we want to talk in this kind of setting?"
Looking around, Situ Xingyun instructed the nanny, "Clear out a room."
The old woman nodded repeatedly.
After bowing to Jun Wuhen, Feng Xue said, "Young Master Jun, please come in." For some reason, Feng Xue didn't want Jun Wuhen to reveal his identity on the pleasure boat.
A moment later, the nanny immediately prepared a comfortable room.
From the moment Situ Xingyun first saw Feng Xue, he noticed the man in black beside her. Even without uttering a word, that man was impossible to ignore. He possessed an aura of dominance, an innate and undeniable power!
Suddenly, upon seeing his blue eyes, Situ Xingyun was taken aback, and immediately clasped his hands in greeting, saying, "I have long admired your esteemed name, Your Excellency."
Jun Wuhen didn't react much, only nodding slightly, "Your Highness."
