She was so doomed!
Feng Wu's heart was thumping so hard that she thought it was going to jump out of her mouth!
Knock, knock —
Knock, knock —
They kept tapping on the door outside and Feng Xun said insistently, "What's going on in there? Open up! Are you refining something now?"
Old Man Ba stroked his white goatee and said, "I don't think so. She wasn't refining anything when I left. What's going on? Is she alright in there?"
Feng Xun said grumpily, "Old Man Ba, since the girl won't open up, leave her be. We don't really want to meet her either. We'll be on our way."
Yes!
Feng Wu was so excited to hear that, that the hand holding the porcelain bottle shook!
Yes! Be on your way! Now… Feng Wu was almost in tears.
However, Old Man Ba didn't hear Feng Wu's silent prayer. Throwing a dirty look at Feng Xun, he said, "I'm not introducing her to you. It's the crown prince I want to show her to."
