Feng Tianlan’s lips twitched when she saw the State Preceptor’s childish behavior. Then, she raised her leg and kicked him. However, he seemed to have eyes at the back of his head and quickly dodged. He then turned around and looked at her.
“Kicking people from behind, is this your way of begging people?” His voice was slightly raised as he looked at her sullenly.
Feng Tianlan retracted her foot indifferently, the corners of her lips curled imperceptibly. “Your methods of toying with people are also impressive. Moreover, I’m only stretching my foot and moving my muscles, when did I kick you?”
“If it weren’t for my quick reflex, your foot would have landed on my… body.” He was embarrassed to mention the word ‘butt’, so he abruptly changed it.
“I’m sorry, my leg is too long. Moreover, I was blind for a moment, so I didn’t see anyone.” Feng Tianlan replied casually.
Hearing Feng Tianlan’s words, the State Preceptor was at a loss for words. Her foot didn’t land on his body after all, so she could say whatever she wanted. He couldn’t possibly ask her to kick him again just to prove her intention.
He took a deep breath and discontinued the argument. It wouldn’t do to ruin his State Preceptor image.
“Do you still remember that I mentioned before that you would beg me one day?”
Feng Tianlan raised her eyebrows. “Is that so? I won’t take such words to heart.” She did not see a need for her to remember his words.
“If you are willing to beg, I promise to tell you what you want to know and give you the help that you need,” the State Preceptor raised his eyebrows and looked at her.
Feng Tianlan was a very proud woman. He felt that it was impossible for her to beg, so he deliberately made things difficult for her.
But Feng Tianlan said without hesitation, “I beg you.”
“Uh…” he was stunned. He didn’t expect her to give in so quickly and without any trace of arrogance at all. However, it was too easy for her to just pay lip service. “Miss Feng, don’t you know how to beg someone?”
She looked at him, then without another word, she knelt on the floor with a thud. The slight sound resounded in his ears and hit him like a thunderbolt, stunning him.
Feng Tianlan pressed her forehead against the ground as she said sincerely, “Please, I beg you. Please save Mobai and Sheng’er. I am willing to go through hell and high water for you.”
The State Preceptor was so shocked by Feng Tianlan’s gesture that he took two steps back and looked at her with an astounded expression.
He did not expect this from someone as arrogant as her, yet she was now kneeling in front of him and begging him earnestly to save Feng Yunsheng and Si Mobai.
Seeing that he did not speak, she thought that she was not sincere enough, so she kowtowed heavily and said even more sincerely, “I beg you once again to please help me. I will never forget this favor.”
As long as she could save Mobai and Sheng’er, she was willing to kowtow and grovel. She was willing to throw away her dignity and pride for them.
The State Preceptor was brought back to his senses by Feng Tianlan’s sincere plea. He asked in disbelief, “Why?”
How could such an arrogant person like her do such a thing?
Feng Tianlan paused for a moment before she said, “Mobai and Sheng’er are people I care about deeply, they are very important to me. Dignity and pride are insignificant compared to them.”
She did not understand Sheng’er, but despite her previous attitude towards Sheng’er, Feng Tianlan was still willing to save her life in times of danger. She was definitely sincere and treasured their kinship. She was different from Tu Xiupei and Shen Yunya..
