Feng Ning hated these kind of banquets.
She was thankful that she had the skill of putting on a430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqoXcs0kZU
blank and innocent face due to the fact that it was her natural face. After430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Cz7HHdhzi
all, in her past life, she was so gullible that she ended up destroying herself430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfBUspWcfO
because of her kindness.
The others didn’t seem to be willing to talk to her that430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DYhfs9uzs
much here. Even her elder sister, Feng Quan was busy to talk with the other430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kpXcNRcqT
girls and didn’t have time to care for her. As for Feng Zhi Liu, she was too430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGh6h5RGbbq
young to make trouble.
‘I’ll walk around now.’
Now that the Emperor had left the scene towards the garden,430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmVdukWilL
only half of the people stayed here. Most of them were the children and the430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEbN60N1Yi
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. She430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tZyloYb4h
raised her head, noticing that the one who talked was Lin Han Xing. Because he430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXufUSGGyfy
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 nodded430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRs2rToHOd
faintly. It seemed that he didn’t seem to care that much about what his father430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2W858DGInp
thought.
Lin Han Xing snorted. “Come with me, Hu Xi.”
“Yes, Father.”
As he watched them left, Lin Zi Xuan’s eyes darkened430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFU5r4mXzpz
considerably. However, he didn’t leave his seat and merely played with the cup430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAG0xqm8z9
in his hand. He raised his head towards the three young girls who sat not far430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPVC9e5mdm
from him, one was busy talking with others, another one was carried by the430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7tEYCOEtB
servant, and the last one was walking towards him.
…Walking towards him?
“Imperial Cousin Zi Xuan.” A soft and childish voice rang in430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNaqs2vZhiv
his ear. The tone was low and gentle, giving off refreshing feeling. Yet at the430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdiooScYEg
same time, the voice carried the hint of carefulness, one that shouldn’t have430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE4eJNW2lRG
appeared in such a young girl.
Lin Zi Xuan lowered his head and looked at the young girl430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlOOcXcFUJ
who was only 6 years old in front of him. “Princess Ning.”
Feng Ning’s lips twitched slightly. She was certainly not430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZ64P15PXj
used with being addressed like that. Even though her servants sometimes called430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7yEZFEJgL
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 walk430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFlhAfTVMn
around?” Feng Ning asked while tilting her head, looking like an innocent young430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcInn901MN
girl.
Lin Zi Xuan was staring at the young girl in front of him.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmjhhBz3cY
“Father didn’t want me to create any trouble.”
“I see.”
Feng Ning could sense that this prince was keeping his430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdX0Ncd65th
distance, so she didn’t want to try probing him anymore. She turned around,430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcm62VZKzm
right at the time Feng Quan was looking for her. “Sister, let’s go to the430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSowAdouw3J
garden. The others said that outside is very beautiful.”
“Yes, Sister.”
The two of them walked out while Feng Zhi Liu was still430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlNBKD3THz
resting in her maidservants’ hand. She was still three years old, so it was430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBqYYJCh5c
only natural that she would feel sleepy most of the time. Even her twin brother430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvw06Mdx08l
was not in much better condition under their mother’s hand.
Lin Zi Xuan stayed still in his place when he saw his father430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYi9l4sKVZ
went back with Prime Minister Fang Hou Zheng. His father’s face was dark as he430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOFkiHxCp2
pointed at him. “Go to the garden and accompany the princesses!”
“Yes, Father.”
Reaching the garden, Lin Zi Xuan could instantly see that430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERKwbQ9Gxi
his half younger brother, Lin Hu Xi, was also talking with the two princess.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RsJKJLluT
However, it was clear that Feng Quan refused to get close to him and even gave430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wBZQiVRSB
him polite distance.
The two of them were more or less of the same age and Feng430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2mR5Z03TD
Quan was someone who had learned etiquette more, so she refused.
“Are you not willing to play with me, Cousin Quan?” Lin Hu430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYJuToX4nT
Xi asked in low tone.
Feng Quan was smiling without mirth. “I’m afraid that it’ll430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVytOpv9DO
be inappropriate, Your Highness. How about if you play with the other boys?”
Even though she was calling with the word ‘Your Highness,’430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH7HSHeoD8U
Lin Hu Xi could sense the coldness from deep within Feng Quan’s bone. Because430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWgFQME6DF
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,430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddOM2irQjF
I want to play with the other girls.”
Both rejection.
Lin Hu Xi could only watch helplessly as the two of them430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHa4speVq6
headed to the group of girls. He looked in the direction of Princess Lin Mei430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLst0swbOO
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 near430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolqKgDacpJ
an empty table, finding a random chair to sit. His dark eyes were watching the430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Ybvfk0hFZ
three princesses who were staying at this place one by one.
He hadn’t returned to the Capital City in many years and he430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezvZbXiq9M
knew very well that his father wished for his younger brother to be able to430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvdQJHMzHG
marry one of the princess. Based on the age, his younger brother might be430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKr27ugFP6
targeting either Lin Mei Ni or Feng Ning. But so far, he hadn’t been430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGjdTOk8aw
successful.
‘How tiring.’
Looking at how these girls had been learning how to bootlick430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrJZuNfxdT
at young age, Feng Ning was finding it harder and harder to maintain her sweet430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJrOJBkkiw
and foolish smile. She really need to take a break.
“Sister, I want to sit down.” Feng Ning’s voice sounded a bit430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuv8NlumLHx
pleading.
Feng Quan looked at her younger sister and nodded her head.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTUqkB0fCS
“In that case, please be careful, Sister. We wouldn’t want anything to happen430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbuXZMkE1H
to you.”
“Yes, I will be careful.”
Feng Ning sighed internally, knowing full well that her430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWyC4bQrIB
older sister must be hoping that something happened to her. She glanced around430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMa5PuaNXCt
and walked towards the tables. At this moment, she noticed that Lin Zi Xuan was430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbaQHcqyec8
sitting on the empty table, his dark eyes were watching his surroundings like a430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2vu34h6e3
patient wolf that was waiting for its prey.
As their gaze met, Feng Ning felt that his gaze was somewhat430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJAolhASIwp
familiar. It was not like she had seen him before, but she had seen that type430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAZse8zwoO
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 to430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkhHKPZUX3
survive, they would have to rely on their man if they wished to do anything. It430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6S2OLGyOtP
was not like she didn’t want to be independent, but she realized that many430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8iZZsXwpk
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,430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJBuaq3Q0L
there were a lot of things that she had to pay attention to, and most430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lngEShP4Z
importantly, being in the Imperial Family meant that they had to mind their430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uTJvBOxCE
every action. It was tiring. There was never actually a time when she was not430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEWduq8F6g
watched by anyone.
Even at home, the servants would be watching her. They would430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXOh97s1xf
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 property430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsb8hgkHLh
because she was too young and those would only be given to her after she was430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyM7iMH2XAA
married as part of dowry.
As for marriage? There were only a few people of similar430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsDh7CEeSQ
status whom her mother would consider.
Feng Ning originally planned to stay calm and composed,430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgoJohWUDa
pulling the servants to her side with the most harmless and slow methods. She430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFM8UqfHBJ
didn’t want to be seen as a threat by anyone, keen on persevering her peaceful430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGThWt9uoo
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, is430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwH3K5t0HN4
it?’
