Ms. Diviner: The Prodigal Daughter's Return

Chapter 454: 454 A Night of Ye Lanfeng Filled with Memories Triggered by Things Seen

Zhou Binghai glared at Jin Yuguang, still intending to give him a lesson, when suddenly a clear and pleasant voice rang out.

”Yu Guang, Bing Hai, come here.” The speaker, of course, was Ye Lanfeng.

Jin Yuguang’s face color subtly changed, and he wanted to put down the food box and Brocade Box in his hands before heading over, but Ye Lanfeng’s voice came once again: ”Bring everything in your hands with you.”

The color drained from Jin Yuguang’s face in an instant, as if he were constipated, and he looked pitifully at Zhou Binghai. Zhou Binghai coldly glanced at Jin Yuguang, his eyes spelling two words: Serves you right!

Carrying a pile of things, Jin Yuguang hung his head low and joined Zhou Binghai in front of Ye Lanfeng.

Ye Lanfeng caressed the Jade Pendant in his hand and looked indifferently at the pitiful Jin Yuguang, speaking slowly, ”Leave the roast duck, take the Brocade Boxes. If there’s clothing inside, you’ll wear it out tomorrow. If there are accessories, then wear them. Also, you must wear those items and strut before Princess Jin Hua three times tomorrow. Any less, and it won’t count.”

”Lord~~~” Jin Yuguang’s eyes filled with hot tears, and his voice was mournfully melodious, almost to the point of hugging Ye Lanfeng’s leg and sobbing for mercy. This punishment was too cruel—the delicious food was confiscated, and he had to wear the gifts from Princess Jin Hua to provoke her. He could figure out using his behind how humiliated Princess Jin Hua would feel, and he himself would die of embarrassment.

”Enough, talk more and I’ll add to the count.” Ye Lanfeng waved his hand, shooing Jin Yuguang away like a fly.

With tears in his eyes, Jin Yuguang clutched the Brocade Boxes and resolutely went back to his room, swearing on his ”chrysanthemum” that he would never covet snacks or make decisions to accept women’s gifts for his master again.

Zhou Binghai didn’t feel a shred of sympathy for Jin Yuguang, rather he felt a schadenfreude. Thinking back... thinking back to when they were also unable to withstand some women’s earnest pleas, agreeing to help those women bring scented sachets and handkerchiefs to their lord, only for the lord to then demand they wear the scented sachet and handkerchief to face those women. Naturally, the women thought they had used the items themselves. The women’s hurt and resentment don’t need mentioning, and they themselves were equally uncomfortable under those gazes.

Their lord’s personal integrity was never just lip service. Moreover, he never rejected anyone gently but always bluntly, without a hint of pity for the fairer sex, never giving those people any hope. Hence, later on, hardly any woman dared to pester their lord. But this time in Anyun Country, they encountered Princess Jin Hua. This scoundrel Yu Guang indeed deserved a lesson; otherwise, he would never learn his limits, and that would spell trouble for the future.

At that time, Zhou Binghai still didn’t realize it wasn’t that Ye Lanfeng lacked compassion or tenderness, but rather he hadn’t met the right person. In the future, he witnessed the tenderness his lord showed towards Mu Hanyan, and as a single man himself, he truly felt like he was eating dog food to the point of bursting every day.

Zhou Binghai was mulling things over, only to have his thoughts interrupted by Ye Lanfeng’s words, which set off a storm in his heart.

Because their noble and aloof lord suddenly uttered, ”What do you think Han Yan is doing right now?”

Despite the ten thousand metaphorical alpacas trampling through Zhou Binghai’s heart, he managed to keep an extreme calmness as he responded methodically, ”Young Master Mu should be participating in the trials at Zhengying Academy right now.” Lord, please wake up, that playboy is a man, really, even though he is very good-looking, he is genuinely a man.

”Nonsense. Of course, I know that, I am asking what she is doing right now.” Ye Lanfeng put away the Jade Pendant and glanced at Zhou Binghai, ”You should spend less time on those erotic novels and pay more attention to Mu Hanyan’s business. Report back to me immediately with any news.”
