Chapter 736 - Chen Xinlu Brazenly Asks for a Token
The Tempestuous Consort – Wilfully Pampered by the Beastly Highness
Feng Tianlan turned around and said coldly, âIs anything the matter?â
âWhat about us?â
Feng Tianlan looked at her, puzzled. âWhat is it?â
âThe Bailan Allianceâs Honorary Guest Token.â Chen Xinlu glanced at the token in Xiao Xiaoâs hand. âWe all journeyed together. Youâve given one to them. What about us?â
â...â
Everyone was stunned when they heard Chen Xinluâs words. They turned to look at her with disbelief in their eyes. Was she really begging for the Bailan Allianceâs Honorary Guest Token?
âLuâer.â Shi Yiqing felt thoroughly embarrassed. How could she feel comfortable asking for this?
Chen Xinyiâs complexion paled, and she lowered her voice and said, âLittle sister.â
On the other hand, Shi Moning didnât say a word. He gaped at Chen Xinlu as he watched her make a fool of herself. She brazenly wanted a token. If she could get it, itâd benefit them. But if she couldnât obtain it, she wouldâve only embarrassed herself. Therefore, he simply needed to watch the show unfold to see what happened.
Feng Tianlan stared at Chen Xinlu amusedly. âYouâre asking me for it?â
âShouldnât I be?â Chen Xinlu seemed convinced in herself. When she saw Chen Xinyi tug on her clothes as a signal to stop, she glared at her. âYou useless trash. Iâm asking for your sake. Donât make trouble.â
It was fine to not be able to conquer a man, but she had actually lost to another man. Now, she even wanted to stop her from asking for the token? What was the point in keeping her pride? Was her pride worth more than the Bailan Allianceâs Honorary Guest Token?
âWhy must I give one to you?â Feng Tianlan found this even more comical. She was asking for a favor and yet sheâd asked for one so demandingly. This had completely refreshed her understanding of what it meant to be thick-skinned.
âWe protected you from Kaiyang City all the way to Linâan City. Even though we didnât make any contributions or do any menial work, itâs only reasonable that you give us a token as remuneration for our services. How can you favor them and give them a token and not us?â Chen Xinlu spoke with such great conviction, as though it were completely wrong of Feng Tianlan to withhold a token from her.
âMaster Shen, donât listen to her...â
Chen Xinlu interrupted Chen Xinyiâs words with a grunt. âShut up!â
Chen Xinyi and Shi Yiqing glanced at her. They covered their faces with their hands and turned to the side, completely ashamed. They truly didnât want to acknowledge that they knew her.
âA remuneration for protecting me all the way into the city?â Feng Tianlan found this amusing. âIn Kaiyang City, who rescued you? It was us. Then, speaking of remuneration, donât you have to pay me? Oh, and in the suburbs, we also saved you. For saving you twice, donât you have to pay me double?â
Even though theyâd been targeted because of her, sheâd still rescued them, yet she wanted to ask for a reward?
Her reasoning was comical!n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Chen Xinyiâs complexion gradually changed. She responded with a hint of awkwardness and guilt, âBut I didnât ask you to save me.â Hence, there was no need for them to repay her.
Feng Tianlan burst into laughter. âLetâs put aside the fact that I didnât even ask you to escort me. However, even if I had, exactly who escorted who during this journey?â
When Chen Xinluâs eyes fell on the Bailan Alliance Honorary Guest Token crafted from special spiritual jade, she pushed on self-righteously. âFor this journey, you should give us what you gave her. Otherwise, youâre discriminating against us and showing favoritism. Itâs immoral. Furthermore, we were targeted by assassins because of your man. So, you need to compensate us.â
If remuneration wasnât possible, then the token should just be treated as a form of compensation.
âLittle sister, you canât...â
Chen Xinlu glared at her. âShut up.â Unable to accomplish anything yet always making trouble. How dare she speak up!
â...â Meiâer and the rest were rendered speechless by her. They were completely flabbergasted by her antics and couldnât believe that she was so brazenly seeking a favor from their savior. Was this what they called being a âwhite-eyed wolf?â
Whatâs more, they were sisters, yet why were they so completely different? Were they even biologically related?
