Chapter 50: Pitiful Little Thing

Lei Min said each word with no shame, whereas Linghe and the rest already had faces as black as the base of a pot!

“If Sister Fengyan thinks that she cannot choose based on this, she can follow us to the City Lord’s residence and slowly make her pick there,” Lei Min looked at Ji Fengyan and smiled very gently, but an angry look flashed across his eyes.

So what if she was a terminator?

Just a half mature young girl like her would still be toyed within their control once she was at a foreign place away from home.

Linghe and the rest looked extremely displeased. This was obviously the Lei family’s father and son trying to make things difficult for Ji Fengyan, God knew what other tricks they have up their sleeves even if they had gone to the City Lord’s residence.

Just when Lei Min was waiting for Ji Fengyan to compromise, Ji Fengyan acted like nothing had happened and started to walk in circles around the cages.

“There’s no need for this much trouble,” Ji Fengyan replied smilingly, as she did not even take a glance at that pair of father and son. Instead, she was very interested in those pitiful small animals in the cages.

Ji Fengyan circled a few rounds and said nothing else.

Lei Min slightly frowned. He was not sure whether Ji Fengyan really did not know the mystery behind the animals or that she was really dumb. They randomly brought these small animals—even if she had chosen any of them, wasn’t the corresponding mount still up to them to arrange?

Their intentions this time were to establish an imposing air on Ji Fengyan, but there was no reaction from her at all. This made Lei Min surprised and he involuntarily looked at Lei Xu, but Lei Xu only shot him a gaze to stay quiet.

“Fengyan, you can take your time to pick. After you have chosen, I’ll let someone take care of your mount, the mounts delivered now are still young, and you are also still young, I’m afraid that you won’t be able to take care of these pampered mounts. After the mount you have chosen has been raised for some time, I’ll hand it over to you,” Lei Xu smiled kindly but each word in his sentence revealed his intention to threaten.

This was a plan to completely detain Ji Fengyan’s mount!

If the mount was not brought up personally by the owner, there was unlikely to be any chemistry between the owner and the mount on the battlefield, Lei Xu was obviously trying to plot against Ji Fengyan!

Linghe and the rest already turned already pale from their rage. They were just waiting for Ji Fengyan’s command, so that even if they have to risk their lives, they would still kill these pair of shameless father and son here.

But...

Ji Fengyan did not take any action even after a long time.

Her gaze was currently drawn to a ball of white fur that was trapped in the cage. She stopped in her tracks and squatted in front of the cage. Then, she opened her eyes wide to look at that small figure hiding in the corner.

That was a small deer with a body entirely snow white. There were even fresh bloodstains on the joints of its left hooves. Obviously, it was injured during the process of being hunted. That small deer looked very weak and lay there with little breath left. Its teary big eyes were also squinted with little energy left. When Ji Fengyan approached it, its small body shivered uncontrollably and it curled tighter.

“Brother Ling, where is your knife?” Ji Fengyan suddenly turned and looked at Linghe, who had a darkened face.

Linghe snapped out of his daze and look at Ji Fengyan’s eyes and then at that half dead, small deer. He thought that his Miss had placed her guards up and immediately carried his sword and walked to the side of the cage.

Ji Fengyan directly stood up and took the sword in Linghe’s hands. With a loud clack, she immediately cut open the chains on the cage.

The piercing sound made Lei Xu and Lei Min frown. They quietly looked as Ji Fengyan reached out her hands to carry the terror-stricken small white deer out of the cage.
