"Good." Lin Xiaofei took back her hand and sat on the chair on the side while Su Tang poured her a cup of tea.

After wetting her lips with the tea, Lin Xiaofei asked him, "And what have you learned so far from that book?"

Kael was full of smiles as he narrated what he learned from the start till where he stopped from the book he was reading while Lin Xiaofei nodded her head.

It seems that Kael really did read the book and he was not pretending to have read it.

"But my lady, I can\'t understand why must one not kill their enemies on the spot? Why must we wait till our enemies grow?" Kael looked at her with a pout.

Lin Xiaofei softly tapped her finger on the table once and said, "It\'s for one\'s satisfaction."

"Satisfaction?" Kael raised his eyebrows.

"Wouldn\'t it be such a great pleasure to see one\'s enemies grow its legs and climb up the ladder with a smile before dragging it down to its death?"

"I see." Kael nodded his head and take note of her words.

However, Lin Xiaofei only said those words to make him understand what he was confused about in the book.

Like what was said in the book, Lin Xiaofei also finds it quite entertaining to see her enemies growing before she eliminates them from her chessboard if she was still inside her previous body.

Unfortunately, she was living someone else\'s body and life thus, she can\'t say the same. In this lifetime, she doesn\'t find it pleasurable to see Yu Fangzhu working his way up and take the crown from his father nor does she want to wait for Emperor Yun to die because of old age.

She can\'t let Yu Fangzhu get what he wanted. She must stop him before he could become the next emperor. At least, that is her real goal for now.

"Young miss, the Duke\'s servants are standing outside the young lady\'s courtyard." Bai Lu informed her after a servant came rushing to inform Lin Xiaofei.

The servant was stopped in front of Kael\'s room and only talked with Bai Lu.

"The Duke?" Kael asked as he didn\'t know what happened this morning in the East Courtyard. "Why are the Duke\'s servants here? Aren\'t they supposed to come to my lady\'s grandfather?"

Bai Lu smiled and informed the young boy that their young lady brought back one day, "Young Master, you must not know that our young miss is now engaged to Duke Qu Xing Xu."

"What?!" Su Tang and Kael simultaneously shouted in shock.

They were inside the room this whole time and the news of her betrothal hasn\'t even reached the farthest corners of the Lin residence.

"I know it\'s shocking but early this morning, the Duke came to propose to our young lady and even brought the dowries with him!" Bai Lu continued to say as if Lin Xiaofei wasn\'t in the same room.

Lin Xiaofei frowned upon seeing the shock in their faces. She didn\'t understand why must everyone look shocked at the news of her engagement with that man. Even her grandfather whom she already informed that someone will come to their residence to ask her hand for marriage looked like he was about to faint on the spot before he called Qu Xing Xu his beloved grandson.

Su Tang suddenly kneeled on the floor and happily said, "Congratulations, young miss! You\'re finally marrying the man of your dreams!"

Lin Xiaofei had a bitter look on her face as she was suddenly reminded of the previous Lin Xiaofei\'s obsession with Qu Xing Xu that her maids and lady Liu Shishi misunderstood her.

While Su Tang and Bai Lu were enjoying the fact that their young miss managed to snag the most sought after bachelor and hero in the capital as well her first love, Kael was on the other hand had a weird expression on his face.

He was looking strangely at Lin Xiaofei as if he had just seen a monster sitting in front of him before a pitiful look flashed on his eyes.

Sighing, Kael felt sympathy for the Duke that will marry his young lady. He hoped that the Duke will not find how villainous Lin Xiaofei was and end up dying in his own house.

Offering an awkward smile, he said, "Congratulations, my lady."

"But what is the name of the Duke you\'re destined to marry?" Kael asked and drank tea. He was acting like a proper young master from a respectable family after being trained under Su Tang\'s guidance.

"Duke Qu Xing Xu." Lin Xiaofei answered nonchalantly.

"Puu!!" Kael spurted out the tea in his mouth and Lin Xiaofei masterfully avoided the splattered tea that came out of his mouth.

\'Bang!\'

Kael put down the teacup with a loud crisp sound and pointed his finger at Lin Xiaofei, "Y-you! My lady! How can you force the Duke to marry you?!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Lin Xiaofei asked with a glare. Who\'s forcing who? She thought.

"But how can the Duke willingly propose to you? You must have taken him hostage!"

Lin Xiaofei suddenly had the urge to hit the kid\'s head to get his thoughts straight.

To Kael, Duke Qu Xing Xu was a hero even though he was an outsider. He heard of the battles that Qu Xing Xu fought and how valiant and amazing he was in the war and couldn\'t help but idolize him just like any young boy and men who dreamed of being a hero and protect what they love.

Seeing the glare that she was using to look at him, Karl cautiously said, "You really didn\'t force him?"

"Do you want me to kick you out?" Lin Xiaofei snapped at him and Kael awkwardly smiled.

"Oh no. Of course, my lady. Congratulations on your engagement. I\'m so happy for you." Kael was forced to say this. He wished he could save the hero from his deadly mistress.
