she found herself chatting with a killer boss she'd never even seen. Thinking about it, it was rather ridiculous.Dugu Cheng listened quietly to her pouring out her heart. He knew that by saying these..."Don't worry too much, there are still over eight years before Wan'er turns ten. I will find out the purpose of the Ghost Saint Nation Yao Clan. Besides, whether or not Wan'er is allowed to go to the Yao Clan in the future won't be up to them."
Dugu Cheng was comforting Feng Ling Xi, it turned out that Xier still had these things she hadn't told him.
These days, he has been preoccupied with Feng Aotian, not expecting any trouble from the Yao Clan. However, this isn't too surprising. Wan'er is only two years old now, still far from ten. As long as they guide her well, perhaps one day she'll be able to stand on her own.
"Then you'll have to put some thought into it."
Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu City, her eyes filled with tenderness. "I owe Wan'er a lot. I gave birth to her but didn't raise her well. At such a young age, she has suffered so much."
"Wǎn'er won't blame you, especially since it was I who treated Wǎn'er poorly, not you."
Dugu City held Feng Ling Xi, reminiscing about how he had feigned amnesia back then, causing some things that shouldn't have happened to occur. Now thinking about it, it seemed foolish.
I am sleepy.
Feng Lingxi whispered softly, nestled in Dugu City's embrace, feeling a sense of warmth. She relished this warmth and yearned for it to protect her for a lifetime. However, she knew she couldn't dare to ask for too much.
Some things, she had to do on her own.
Dugu Cheng pressed a kiss to her forehead. "Sleep."
I thought Dugu City would endure this night, but he didn't hold back in the end. However, he was very restrained, and Feng Lingxi could accept it after all. After all, the effect of the medicine wasn't something they could control.
Pleasant days always make time fly by, these beautiful and carefree days are something to cherish, but they don't last long.
As the year draws to a close, Feng Aotian still shows no sign of leaving. Dugu City practically returns every day, and Shutai's nourishing soup continues daily. However, thankfully, the portion size from Shutai has decreased.
The effects of the following medicines are all ordinary soups and nothing special.
On this day, after a heavy snowfall, the weather cleared, and the wind was calm. Feng Lingxi had just gotten up when he saw a figure running towards him, reaching out to embrace Wan'er. Looking at the smile on her face, Feng Lingxi planted a kiss on her cheek.
"Why are you so happy Where did you go with Fourteen"
"Mother, I have learned martial arts."
Wind Lingxi gazed at Wan'er's rosy smile, her eyes crinkled with amusement. She looked back at the fourteen behind Wan'er.
"Fourteen taught you martial arts, then what did you learn"
"Shi Fourteen said, 'Light work is the most impressive.'"
Feng Lingxi raised an eyebrow and looked at Shi Fourteen. Seeing her innocent expression, she reached out and lightly tapped Wan'er's nose.
"Since you want to learn, then learn well from the fourteenth."
Wan'er nodded and quickly ran off. What was called "light work" was simply her daily training of running to build up her body.
"My Lord, the young mistress is famished. That's why I..."
"It's fine, if she likes it, then teach her. If she learns light kung fu well, her self-defense ability will also be strong."
Feng Lingxi didn't expect that Wan'er would like martial arts. It's a good thing for a girl to have martial arts skills.
"My subordinate shall go tend to the young master first."
Shifu followed Wan'er away. Feng Lingxi got up and walked to the door, looking at the thick snow on the road. There was still no news from the capital city. Was this Dugu Xiu's life a bit too tough
As time went on, his time was drawing to a close.
"Fourth Royal Wife, wanting to see you is truly difficult."
Feng Aotian's voice entered her ears. Feng Aotian walked over from behind the stone pillar, his aged face carrying a hint of mockery. Feng Lingxi frowned. Wasn't he supposed to be at the military camp He was in civilian clothes and had found his way here.
It seems that Dugu City kept it a secret from her, and Feng Aotian wasn't staying in the barracks at all. He was trapped there by him.
"So it's General Zhen Guo, haven't seen you in ages."
Feng Ling's tone was cold, she stood there without inviting him in.
Feng Aotian stood there, his eyes meeting those of Feng Lingxi. Gazing at the eternally beautiful Feng Lingxi, his eyes were filled with coldness. This Feng Lingxi was indeed getting better and better; her lips were red, her teeth white, and her complexion rosy. It seemed she was living well in Linxi County.
"Won't you let me come in for a bit How can I say I don't owe you any kindness"
"A drop of water's grace should be repaid with a spring, but since you never nurtured me like a drop of water, why should I repay your kindness"
Feng Lingxi coldly opened his mouth, addressing Feng Aotien without a shred of affection.
"Don't you want to know why I'm here"
If you want to say it, you will say it. If you don't, I can't force you.
They stared at each other for a long time. As if in response to their silence, snowflakes began to fall from the sky, blanketing Ao Tian's shoulders with white.
I have news about your parents. You don't want to know
"My parents"
It's truly fascinating, Mother hid herself so well that even her own daughter doesn't know where she is. As for this so-called father, well, let's just say she has no idea who he is either.
"Yes, your biological parents."
Feng Aotian stared at Feng Lingxi, as if he was sure she would answer, but unexpectedly, Feng Lingxi smiled.
"Why are you smiling Don't you want to know about your biological parents Haven't you always been looking for them"
"Who told you I've been looking for them all along Don't you know my mother is hiding Not to mention I can't find her, even the people in this Ghost Saint Nation can't find her. Do you think you can find her"
"I really have news about her, and your real father..."
Feng Aotian's eyes were firm, not like he was joking.
"What news I don't even want to see them. You're telling me this, and I'm not interested at all. If you really want to say it, then just go ahead. As for making demands of me, I'm sorry, but I won't."
Wind Lingxi stood at the door of her house with her arms crossed, watching Feng Aotian's changing expression. She remained calm, as coming here was not just to tell her parents' news.
He brought Duguo Xiu here, not just to take away his military power. There must be other reasons.
"Don't you really want to know about them"
"Do I look like I'm deceiving you"
Feng Aotian stared at Feng Lingxi for a while, his expression complex.
"You are truly unfilial."
"You're not the first to know I'm unfilial. Didn't you call me a rebellious daughter, unfilial back then Now you ask again, it's rather ridiculous."
Feng Lingxi talked to him without the slightest anxiety or the hatred from before.
Feng Aotian had already taken away her interest in everything. Now, to even speak a few words with him felt like an unnecessary burden to Feng Lingxi. She thought that perhaps staying at the manor for too long had made her rusty. A little practice of her rhetoric wouldn't hurt.
"You want to know about their messages, but what about Dugu City's You must be interested in that too"
Feng Ling Xi's smile widened at the corner of her lips, Feng Ao Tian narrowed his eyes, "What are you laughing at"
“Tell me, isn't it ridiculous to say that the man I share a bed with is my husband”
"Sharing a bed with him, how much do you really know about him Do you know what he's been hiding from you lately"
Feng Aotiān's words made Feng Língxī's expression stiffen for a moment, but she quickly adjusted it.
"What did he do I have no idea. Do you I've always been curious, what made you so willingly give your life for them"wherever they go. Have you all considered the consequences"Feng Lingxi's words silenced them all. Glancing at the noisy crowd outside, Feng Lingxi walked towards them. This time, Lu Nian didn't stop h...
