Chapter 169: Reap What One Had Sown (1)

 “The water surface was rippled by the wind. There’s no fish!” Murong Ye said leisurely, suddenly tilting his body.

Murong Ji failed to push Murong Ye but touched the air and his thin body went straight forward. He was shocked and tried to stabilize himself. However, he did not expect a stone flew out of thin air and hit him heavily on the knee. His body tilted, with a ‘plop’, he fell into the pond, arising countless splash!

“Who is it? Who jumped into the water?” Accompanied by a rough female voice of inquiry, a figure swam out from behind the rockery. One could easily tell the woman was the darling daughter of the General Mansion Yuan Fangfei from her heavy eyebrow and dark face!

Under the dim light, her stout body was bare and naked and completely exposed to them, her sere hair was tied into a bundle on top of her head. Such a strong chest was looming in the clear water, and the black breasts were closely connected with her strong muscles, making people completely unable to distinguish whether it was a woman’s breasts or the man’s chest muscle.

When Murong Ji saw this scene, his mouth twitched and he said hastily, “I’m sorry, I’m so sorry…”

“Could a ‘sorry’ solve all the problem?” Yuan Fangfei strode over and picked up Murong Ji’s collar, giving him a ferocious scold, “This is the pond where I bathe. Who let you jump in?”

Murong Ji’s lean body was lifted off the ground in an instant. His neck was tightly restrained by his collar, making it difficult for him to breathe. His pale face was flushed and he coughed heavily, “No… But, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to…”

“Even if you didn’t mean it, you’ve disturbed me …” Yuan Fang Fei interrupted him maliciously, and her eyes were fierce. She lost all her interest after being disturbed by him, what a hateful guy…

“Miss Yuan, please show some mercy, Ye’er didn’t mean it…” An anxious explanation sounded. Murong Jian and Mrs. Zhou, surrounded by maids, nannies and servants, came up in a hurry. A sly smile curled around Murong Jian’s mouth: Murong Ye had been fallen into the trap, Ji’er would soon be able to enter the barracks and show his talents…

Yuan Fangfei was now standing in the pond with her thick body, there was fierce in her eyes. Like an eagle catching a chick, she was holding a young man by his collar. The young man was kicking his legs and struggling desperately, but he still could not get rid of her clutches. His white face turned slightly red.

Seeing this scene, Mrs. Zhou’s eyes widened in surprise and she blurted out, “Ji’er, why is it you?” Shouldn’t it be Murong Ye who fell into the pond?

“Mother, help me!” Murong Ji looked at Mrs. Zhou pitifully. His dark pupil was covered with a layer of mist, revealing endless pain and injustice…

Mrs. Zhou suddenly realized the whole story, and her eyes narrowed slightly. Murong Ye didn’t fall for it. It seemed that he was not too stupid. However, all the plays today were arranged for him. He could not stay out of it.

Looking up at Murong Ji, Mrs. Zhou raised her voice and said, “How could you fall into the pond?”

Murong Ji’s eyes flashed and he said with tacit cooperation, “I don’t know what happened. I was walking along the pond with my cousin. Suddenly someone gave me a push and I fell in…”

Mrs. Zhou’s eyes were like sharp arrows, shooting fiercely at Murong Ye, “Ye’er, what were you doing?”

“Auntie, when I walked alongside your son, I walked beside the pond and he walked to my left. If I want to push him into the water, I should pull or drag him, not push him.” Murong Ye looked at her with his eyebrows raised and his eyes beamed with scorn.

“Don’t quibble, even if you are near the pond, you can quietly walk to the back and push him into the water with your left hand…” Mrs. Zhou’s harsh voice retorted, her eyes glistening with cold.

“What you said is really vivid, as if you had done such a thing yourself…” Murong Ye’s eyes widened in surprise. Mrs. Zhou choked immediately. Her chest swelled with rage, “Murong Ye…”

Murong Ye motioned with his hand to interrupt her words and said coldly, “Auntie, why should I push your son into the water?”

“Because… Because…” Mrs. Zhou’s eyes turned sharply and said, “You don’t like Ji’er…”

Murong Ye snorted contemptuously and said, “If I really don’t like your son, I would have kicked him out as early as when he went to the Falling Snow Pavilion, I would not have waited until now. The water in the pond is not deep enough to drown him…”

Zhou was furious and sharply reprimanded, “Murong Ye…”

“Stop!” A dignified and rough voice sounded. A tall figure came along, his dark skin, thick black eyebrows and intense eyes were much similar to that of Yuan Fangfei, making Murong Xue’s eyelids jump. Was he Yuan Fangfei’s father, General Yuan?  They were so alike.

Murong Xue looked up at Yuan Fangfei, and the other party called out to the man, “Father!”

General Yuan gave a faint sigh. His majestic eyes swept over Murong Ye and Murong Ji lightly and fell on Mrs. Zhou, “The feud between Murong Ye and Murong Ji is a family matter of your mansion. I won’t participate in. However, your son should take the responsibility since he has seen my daughter’s body!”

Yuan Fangfei’s body was no different from that of men. How ridiculous he was to let her son take the responsibility.

Mrs. Zhou laughed in her heart, but her face looked apologetic. She said slowly, “We will arrange a gift and come to your Manor for a solemn apology to your family!”

General Yuan’s face darkened instantly, “My daughter is an unmarried girl from a noble family. Your son has seen her body and she has been stained. We won’t accept your sole apology.”

Mrs. Zhou’s eyelids jumped and she felt a bad premonition, “What does General Yuan mean?”

“Your son is not engaged, Fangfei is not yet, either. Then let the two of them make up a pair!” General Yuan burst out laughing. The daughter who stayed at home for years finally found her husband.

“How could that work?” Mrs. Zhou refused at once without thinking. Her son was smart and would become a young general. He should marry a woman of good family background, pretty looks and gentle temper to spend his rest of life with.

And Yuan Fangfei, her strong body, dark skin and rude actions make her totally a reckless and rough man. How could her son marry a ‘man’?

General Yuan’s face was instantly gloomy, “Shouldn’t your son be responsible for ruining my daughter’s reputation?”

His rough roar spread through the clouds and resounded through the sky, making Mrs. Zhou’s ears buzzing. She had no doubt that if she dared to say no again, his family would severely punish them. Now their own family only had a shallow foundation and was not suitable to be the enemy with General Yuan!

“No… no… I didn’t mean that… I mean, Ye’er has been here too, he also saw the body of your daughter, and he is bigger than Ji’er, even if you want an engagement, it is more suitable for him to marry your daughter…”
