“Beautiful palaces?” Lin Feng was surprised by her choice of words and looked back at his beloved. At that moment, Wang Xiaoyun’s eyes sparkled with excitement, no longer showing any sign of the fear that had previously shocked her. She seemed eager to rush towards those beautiful palaces.
“Women! Your name is stupidity! What kind of logic is this? Beautiful palaces mean safe? Beautiful palaces mean we can just walk in? Just because they’re beautiful, we can ignore everything?” These thoughts, of course, he only pondered to himself, not daring to voice them out loud.
As he was still hesitating on how to explain, Wang Xiaoyun was already rubbing her hands together, ready for action. Lin Feng had a bad feeling. Sure enough, he heard Wang Xiaoyun murmur dreamily, “We must have traveled back in time to ancient times, I wonder which dynasty it is, what roles will we play? Are we the prince and princess of those palaces? I’m so looking forward to it!”
“Cough, cough, excuse me, miss…” Lin Feng felt that if he didn’t interrupt, who knows what bizarre events might unfold. What if this young lady suddenly got the urge to stop fantasizing about being a princess and instead decided to become the empress of the harem, and in the process, considered him her personal eunuch? He’d be in for a real shock.
“What did you just call me?!”
“Uh, your highness, are you well?”
“Ha, Lin Feng, why does your face look so bad? What is this place? Can we go into the palaces to have a look? I was scared to death just now, I thought you had gone mad!”
“You’re the one who’s gone mad! You have no sense of romance!” Wang Xiaoyun gave Lin Feng a disdainful look and urged, “Quick, tell me, you brought me here, you must know what this place is, right? These floating palaces, could they be celestial abodes? I really want to see them.”
Lin Feng was sweating bullets, no longer daring to keep up the suspense. Seeing his beloved’s eager look, she must have read too many time-travel novels and wanted to experience ancient life. Straightening up, he said earnestly, “Have you seen the four big characters above your head? ‘The Mirage of the Sky’?”
