Oh man... you serious?? Leng Feiyan!!! YAN YAN, AH ZUO'S ONLY GIRLFIREND NNNNOOOOOOOO!!!!!! PS this feng Guy is so annoying... sigh. Hes jealous of everyone because of his own mediocrity... MY's going to end up alone with no one loyal to him at this rate. And who the hell was the one who spilt the details to this feng guy.. who is the spy in the swallow nest?!?!
ReplyDeleteMany thanks
That bastard Feng Ping!!!
ReplyDeleteWhy is Feiyan so confident, I really don’t understand. When we first see her interact with Morang Yan she couldn’t even speak in front of him and was shocked ZC was able to.. then she was bold enough to fake seduce him as a warning.. now she’s directly disobeying him.. for a boy. The progression is crazy. I think even if she didn’t disobey him this time, her days were numbered because she can see what he’s doing to ZC and she has no fear even though she has everything because he let her live
