My Scheming Little Devil-Chapter 1968: Unexpected Developments
She breathed a complete sigh of relief, cooperating fully as she nestled in Fengye Wuyin’s arms, looking shy and gentle, with a gaze full of tenderness and emotion.
Pretending has to be realistic; otherwise, how could she outwit this annoying old fox?
"You two are living together?"
Accompanied by a voice so deep and shadowy it seemed to pierce through, a chilling air current from behind akin to the icy expanse of the Antarctic swept across, causing everyone present to inexplicably shiver, feeling their skin tingle as if the temperature had suddenly plummeted by dozens of degrees.
Yet Jun Yiyi was still immersed in the atmosphere of acting just moments ago, completely unresponsive and subconsciously blurted out.
"Of course, he and I are an engaged couple, mutually in love and about to marry, isn’t that normal? Soon, we’ll have our baby."
Jun Yiyi’s face was full of shy expression. She said this purely to completely dispel any ideas the men present had about her, so she exaggerated to the extreme.
But she didn’t expect the chill from behind to grow more intense and sharp, like a tornado storming in with unrepressible fury.
"Jun Yiyi, say that again—" A voice like thunder erupting out of nowhere, Ji Lingkong’s face full of anger, his eyes cold and fierce as if they could cut her into pieces.
Jun Yiyi’s spine instantly turned cold, finally recognizing his voice. She involuntarily turned back inch by inch, having thought that sinister voice came from someone else, not noticing at all that it was him.
Only now did she realize, feeling as if her heart was frozen stiff.
Because his voice sounded as if it came from the depths of hell, tinted with blazing fury, as if it wanted to burn her to the ground, leaving no ashes behind.
Finished, Jun Yiyi trembled as she widened her eyes, seeing his terrifying expression, immediately picturing these two words in her mind.
He stood at the outer edge of the crowd, far away, yet his power felt like sudden thunder in a tranquil night sky, with a terrifying force that could tear everything apart, making people involuntarily feel a strong sense of oppression, inciting fear, leaving them breathless.
The guests standing beside him all recoiled in fright, their faces subtly pale with eyes full of surprise and dread. Because this young man, at this moment, seemed to have stripped away any semblance of gentleness, revealing the fierce and dark nature of a demon lord, his entire being enveloped in an intense aura of darkness!
In fact, all the guests were stunned, unexpecting this development.
After all, if anyone were to be angry, should it not be those who were deceived by General Fengye, thinking this girl was truly his daughter, sparking their interest to secure a good marriage?
Not to mention them, the one who should be most furious should be Zhao Zhixuan, who was humiliated and lost face because of Fengye Wuyin, right?
Why then, was the one who exploded the most fiercely, bursting with uncontrollable rage against Fengye Family father and son, precisely this young gentleman of the Aus Empire, who had always seemed aloof, indifferent to the girl?
Moreover, his tone was that of natural questioning, like someone unintentionally catching an affair in progress.
This was indeed an astonishingly unexpected turn of events.
The guests exchanged glances, their curious gazes moving from Jun Yiyi to Ji Lingkong, yet none dared to meet Ji Lingkong’s eyes, which were far too terrifying, making them feel like they’d be instantly frozen solid if they looked into them.
The entire banquet hall was as silent as death, so quiet it left everyone breathless, inexplicably tense.
Fengye Wuyin looked toward Ji Lingkong in astonishment, his heart jolting.
