Feng Ning hated these kind of banquets.
She was thankful that she had the skill of putting on a152Please respect copyright.PENANA7v0joVvLgD
blank and innocent face due to the fact that it was her natural face. After152Please respect copyright.PENANAgmTH8iNP5i
all, in her past life, she was so gullible that she ended up destroying herself152Please respect copyright.PENANADL9qeh37Tm
because of her kindness.
The others didn’t seem to be willing to talk to her that152Please respect copyright.PENANA1aQb5WfmSb
much here. Even her elder sister, Feng Quan was busy to talk with the other152Please respect copyright.PENANAvGpyeKkJGx
girls and didn’t have time to care for her. As for Feng Zhi Liu, she was too152Please respect copyright.PENANAvpl4aPGX1N
young to make trouble.
‘I’ll walk around now.’
Now that the Emperor had left the scene towards the garden,152Please respect copyright.PENANACbPPiQzLZZ
only half of the people stayed here. Most of them were the children and the152Please respect copyright.PENANAKYzkCgY5c5
younger generations along with their mothers.
“You should stay here and don’t embarrass me.”
The voice was low, but Feng Ning could hear it clearly. She152Please respect copyright.PENANALXKOTYXUPZ
raised her head, noticing that the one who talked was Lin Han Xing. Because he152Please respect copyright.PENANAb1RIElRvhC
was not far from her, she could hear his voice was he berated his first son.
Lin Zi Xuan looked straight to his father and nodded152Please respect copyright.PENANA0FujWIEFd0
faintly. It seemed that he didn’t seem to care that much about what his father152Please respect copyright.PENANAESCr6rnW9x
thought.
Lin Han Xing snorted. “Come with me, Hu Xi.”
“Yes, Father.”
As he watched them left, Lin Zi Xuan’s eyes darkened152Please respect copyright.PENANAGXAM8xinZw
considerably. However, he didn’t leave his seat and merely played with the cup152Please respect copyright.PENANAaeL3qmKSJP
in his hand. He raised his head towards the three young girls who sat not far152Please respect copyright.PENANAvl7ytPd9qR
from him, one was busy talking with others, another one was carried by the152Please respect copyright.PENANAOYicv4DVCy
servant, and the last one was walking towards him.
…Walking towards him?
“Imperial Cousin Zi Xuan.” A soft and childish voice rang in152Please respect copyright.PENANAPydkbmnDar
his ear. The tone was low and gentle, giving off refreshing feeling. Yet at the152Please respect copyright.PENANADg4548Lut6
same time, the voice carried the hint of carefulness, one that shouldn’t have152Please respect copyright.PENANAnF1VWsu7L2
appeared in such a young girl.
Lin Zi Xuan lowered his head and looked at the young girl152Please respect copyright.PENANAA2dMykZLwJ
who was only 6 years old in front of him. “Princess Ning.”
Feng Ning’s lips twitched slightly. She was certainly not152Please respect copyright.PENANAGWGlnKdrKr
used with being addressed like that. Even though her servants sometimes called152Please respect copyright.PENANAMw2UfJSgja
her with the word princess, she didn’t pay much attention to them in the past.
Thus, she didn’t really care that much.
But hearing it from an outsider made her felt strange.
“Imperial Cousin Zi Xuan, are you not allowed to walk152Please respect copyright.PENANAZRW576t69i
around?” Feng Ning asked while tilting her head, looking like an innocent young152Please respect copyright.PENANAw3zpinno8e
girl.
Lin Zi Xuan was staring at the young girl in front of him.152Please respect copyright.PENANAJWns2wSHsH
“Father didn’t want me to create any trouble.”
“I see.”
Feng Ning could sense that this prince was keeping his152Please respect copyright.PENANAUg285UCcMQ
distance, so she didn’t want to try probing him anymore. She turned around,152Please respect copyright.PENANABDTCvg6eaS
right at the time Feng Quan was looking for her. “Sister, let’s go to the152Please respect copyright.PENANAgFKDMrn4wT
garden. The others said that outside is very beautiful.”
“Yes, Sister.”
The two of them walked out while Feng Zhi Liu was still152Please respect copyright.PENANA9C0tIYmjXJ
resting in her maidservants’ hand. She was still three years old, so it was152Please respect copyright.PENANABWTqlvipn7
only natural that she would feel sleepy most of the time. Even her twin brother152Please respect copyright.PENANAzqFI81LCur
was not in much better condition under their mother’s hand.
Lin Zi Xuan stayed still in his place when he saw his father152Please respect copyright.PENANAJzdvZB55xa
went back with Prime Minister Fang Hou Zheng. His father’s face was dark as he152Please respect copyright.PENANAtX5jKiDvgF
pointed at him. “Go to the garden and accompany the princesses!”
“Yes, Father.”
Reaching the garden, Lin Zi Xuan could instantly see that152Please respect copyright.PENANA8urctMOkX8
his half younger brother, Lin Hu Xi, was also talking with the two princess.152Please respect copyright.PENANAh89mSdkkbv
However, it was clear that Feng Quan refused to get close to him and even gave152Please respect copyright.PENANAp7SYFRRgbi
him polite distance.
The two of them were more or less of the same age and Feng152Please respect copyright.PENANAj49RiiR9Ma
Quan was someone who had learned etiquette more, so she refused.
“Are you not willing to play with me, Cousin Quan?” Lin Hu152Please respect copyright.PENANAk2qyO0bZM1
Xi asked in low tone.
Feng Quan was smiling without mirth. “I’m afraid that it’ll152Please respect copyright.PENANAdEVyF9GJJK
be inappropriate, Your Highness. How about if you play with the other boys?”
Even though she was calling with the word ‘Your Highness,’152Please respect copyright.PENANAyauRMwRxAU
Lin Hu Xi could sense the coldness from deep within Feng Quan’s bone. Because152Please respect copyright.PENANAiYwEvm1Hz4
of that, Lin Hu Xi knew that he wouldn’t have any chance to get close to her.
Feng Ning blinked her eyes and shook her head. “Your Highness,152Please respect copyright.PENANAc3riZuqi5M
I want to play with the other girls.”
Both rejection.
Lin Hu Xi could only watch helplessly as the two of them152Please respect copyright.PENANAZbKWK27VDR
headed to the group of girls. He looked in the direction of Princess Lin Mei152Please respect copyright.PENANAvCObh1f7x3
Ni, but he knew very well that it was harder to get close to that young girl.
At the side, Lin Zi Xuan watched everything and stayed near152Please respect copyright.PENANAEXBTcGoYhN
an empty table, finding a random chair to sit. His dark eyes were watching the152Please respect copyright.PENANAp7gEeswT6n
three princesses who were staying at this place one by one.
He hadn’t returned to the Capital City in many years and he152Please respect copyright.PENANA9AY7uf4LSr
knew very well that his father wished for his younger brother to be able to152Please respect copyright.PENANAUyfIEl1ez9
marry one of the princess. Based on the age, his younger brother might be152Please respect copyright.PENANAk4oxexqKdx
targeting either Lin Mei Ni or Feng Ning. But so far, he hadn’t been152Please respect copyright.PENANAsXy0t0La5w
successful.
‘How tiring.’
Looking at how these girls had been learning how to bootlick152Please respect copyright.PENANAA3aQm2y9YE
at young age, Feng Ning was finding it harder and harder to maintain her sweet152Please respect copyright.PENANAGHMYxvEVYC
and foolish smile. She really need to take a break.
“Sister, I want to sit down.” Feng Ning’s voice sounded a bit152Please respect copyright.PENANAHaMccawde6
pleading.
Feng Quan looked at her younger sister and nodded her head.152Please respect copyright.PENANApwKiXqIbhg
“In that case, please be careful, Sister. We wouldn’t want anything to happen152Please respect copyright.PENANAKZC6clLUog
to you.”
“Yes, I will be careful.”
Feng Ning sighed internally, knowing full well that her152Please respect copyright.PENANAmNd3ksDcHE
older sister must be hoping that something happened to her. She glanced around152Please respect copyright.PENANAggolxPfgud
and walked towards the tables. At this moment, she noticed that Lin Zi Xuan was152Please respect copyright.PENANAnAvCtNc2xW
sitting on the empty table, his dark eyes were watching his surroundings like a152Please respect copyright.PENANANA5XqNmro7
patient wolf that was waiting for its prey.
As their gaze met, Feng Ning felt that his gaze was somewhat152Please respect copyright.PENANAN7cOg5ytQH
familiar. It was not like she had seen him before, but she had seen that type152Please respect copyright.PENANAYcSA8mznN5
of gaze on someone else before.
‘Should I try?’
A bold thought appeared within Feng Ning’s mind.
In this kind of world where women would find it difficult to152Please respect copyright.PENANAyQkP4mXI6Z
survive, they would have to rely on their man if they wished to do anything. It152Please respect copyright.PENANAX5JvIdPaFC
was not like she didn’t want to be independent, but she realized that many152Please respect copyright.PENANAfAHpi06U73
things she thought she could do was actually impossible.
Those things that she read from the novel was all bulls***.
There were a lot of people who were guarding the manor,152Please respect copyright.PENANAx7dJJ6huYz
there were a lot of things that she had to pay attention to, and most152Please respect copyright.PENANATx5QIVCVHL
importantly, being in the Imperial Family meant that they had to mind their152Please respect copyright.PENANADa2a7TWUku
every action. It was tiring. There was never actually a time when she was not152Please respect copyright.PENANAgt0WUrlLQ4
watched by anyone.
Even at home, the servants would be watching her. They would152Please respect copyright.PENANAttYvVmU09e
only pretend that they didn’t on some specific time.
She wouldn’t be able to get away.
As for making money? She couldn’t even touch any property152Please respect copyright.PENANAdQkm5fRKA8
because she was too young and those would only be given to her after she was152Please respect copyright.PENANAsFoRdWphdM
married as part of dowry.
As for marriage? There were only a few people of similar152Please respect copyright.PENANAS7i9EOS91B
status whom her mother would consider.
Feng Ning originally planned to stay calm and composed,152Please respect copyright.PENANANOunNKuGb5
pulling the servants to her side with the most harmless and slow methods. She152Please respect copyright.PENANA7EpaTsym9V
didn’t want to be seen as a threat by anyone, keen on persevering her peaceful152Please respect copyright.PENANAv26dRSPqzA
life.
Now that she had seen his gaze…
She was tempted.
Tempted to take that chance.
‘I have died once, there’s nothing wrong with trying, is152Please respect copyright.PENANAtYCy0LXFys
it?’
