Feng Ning hated these kind of banquets.
She was thankful that she had the skill of putting on a387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiaO0agZgD
blank and innocent face due to the fact that it was her natural face. After387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwt2nzxOhrk
all, in her past life, she was so gullible that she ended up destroying herself387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczlNdOeZKl
because of her kindness.
The others didn’t seem to be willing to talk to her that387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkRkqFjR9I
much here. Even her elder sister, Feng Quan was busy to talk with the other387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFCUdUN601
girls and didn’t have time to care for her. As for Feng Zhi Liu, she was too387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYrJwoQI2m
young to make trouble.
‘I’ll walk around now.’
Now that the Emperor had left the scene towards the garden,387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISx7PVGQon
only half of the people stayed here. Most of them were the children and the387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIlhOiMm6kz
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. She387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaXdlkWaS8
raised her head, noticing that the one who talked was Lin Han Xing. Because he387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4e6bjyt4Uu
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 nodded387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68GBrAOW3D
faintly. It seemed that he didn’t seem to care that much about what his father387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8huQLbsty2
thought.
Lin Han Xing snorted. “Come with me, Hu Xi.”
“Yes, Father.”
As he watched them left, Lin Zi Xuan’s eyes darkened387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5FGTu1HCO
considerably. However, he didn’t leave his seat and merely played with the cup387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4spUTAEND
in his hand. He raised his head towards the three young girls who sat not far387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nkpqJbEJJ
from him, one was busy talking with others, another one was carried by the387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IKBHtxNYI
servant, and the last one was walking towards him.
…Walking towards him?
“Imperial Cousin Zi Xuan.” A soft and childish voice rang in387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYwlXDOAjE
his ear. The tone was low and gentle, giving off refreshing feeling. Yet at the387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡscdGhEchA4
same time, the voice carried the hint of carefulness, one that shouldn’t have387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlow5r6avK
appeared in such a young girl.
Lin Zi Xuan lowered his head and looked at the young girl387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlfKrXyVUo
who was only 6 years old in front of him. “Princess Ning.”
Feng Ning’s lips twitched slightly. She was certainly not387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfUesk8QVP
used with being addressed like that. Even though her servants sometimes called387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOIH9eYr24
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 walk387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCnehFxh7m
around?” Feng Ning asked while tilting her head, looking like an innocent young387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeT10ts5wdy
girl.
Lin Zi Xuan was staring at the young girl in front of him.387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7YkXZgVXWg
“Father didn’t want me to create any trouble.”
“I see.”
Feng Ning could sense that this prince was keeping his387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyB3fq8oLVw
distance, so she didn’t want to try probing him anymore. She turned around,387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJj5gpdMVp
right at the time Feng Quan was looking for her. “Sister, let’s go to the387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILpMjacvbd
garden. The others said that outside is very beautiful.”
“Yes, Sister.”
The two of them walked out while Feng Zhi Liu was still387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRIh4qDqaB2
resting in her maidservants’ hand. She was still three years old, so it was387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8J2BoNqbqx
only natural that she would feel sleepy most of the time. Even her twin brother387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDguAth9pGH
was not in much better condition under their mother’s hand.
Lin Zi Xuan stayed still in his place when he saw his father387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1pTiqysbD
went back with Prime Minister Fang Hou Zheng. His father’s face was dark as he387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCe8clEginw
pointed at him. “Go to the garden and accompany the princesses!”
“Yes, Father.”
Reaching the garden, Lin Zi Xuan could instantly see that387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaC2P89IRy
his half younger brother, Lin Hu Xi, was also talking with the two princess.387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTA4IB00FOu
However, it was clear that Feng Quan refused to get close to him and even gave387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPcg4l1bu7
him polite distance.
The two of them were more or less of the same age and Feng387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXGAQHSx7C
Quan was someone who had learned etiquette more, so she refused.
“Are you not willing to play with me, Cousin Quan?” Lin Hu387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcp47VsYtr
Xi asked in low tone.
Feng Quan was smiling without mirth. “I’m afraid that it’ll387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gYh59uGaV
be inappropriate, Your Highness. How about if you play with the other boys?”
Even though she was calling with the word ‘Your Highness,’387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dC3Mi2N4k
Lin Hu Xi could sense the coldness from deep within Feng Quan’s bone. Because387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqm4sEKUllr
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,387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAQhjsIeS6
I want to play with the other girls.”
Both rejection.
Lin Hu Xi could only watch helplessly as the two of them387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJuNTkGa0Rs
headed to the group of girls. He looked in the direction of Princess Lin Mei387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHMY58ri5S
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 near387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLh3312ZThK
an empty table, finding a random chair to sit. His dark eyes were watching the387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpkZgGD8uR
three princesses who were staying at this place one by one.
He hadn’t returned to the Capital City in many years and he387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0STqk6In5
knew very well that his father wished for his younger brother to be able to387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78pM2yFSOz
marry one of the princess. Based on the age, his younger brother might be387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKG8S394JUY
targeting either Lin Mei Ni or Feng Ning. But so far, he hadn’t been387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtfnn9ONwz
successful.
‘How tiring.’
Looking at how these girls had been learning how to bootlick387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKQgFDJXuS
at young age, Feng Ning was finding it harder and harder to maintain her sweet387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwl9lvVYRr
and foolish smile. She really need to take a break.
“Sister, I want to sit down.” Feng Ning’s voice sounded a bit387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nQATfMZEl
pleading.
Feng Quan looked at her younger sister and nodded her head.387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJykiSQStha
“In that case, please be careful, Sister. We wouldn’t want anything to happen387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbJolBNLQl
to you.”
“Yes, I will be careful.”
Feng Ning sighed internally, knowing full well that her387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5aCdSWDpTo
older sister must be hoping that something happened to her. She glanced around387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JVY47DkEn
and walked towards the tables. At this moment, she noticed that Lin Zi Xuan was387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtBrLbZllS
sitting on the empty table, his dark eyes were watching his surroundings like a387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡviEKfnf0Pu
patient wolf that was waiting for its prey.
As their gaze met, Feng Ning felt that his gaze was somewhat387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWj1wHUSGZ
familiar. It was not like she had seen him before, but she had seen that type387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0MiFeQnRS
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 to387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkhQqgcQWO
survive, they would have to rely on their man if they wished to do anything. It387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCzPSMfzoS
was not like she didn’t want to be independent, but she realized that many387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ39bm2K2aez
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,387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdfqbl6bWm
there were a lot of things that she had to pay attention to, and most387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKmIXMog09
importantly, being in the Imperial Family meant that they had to mind their387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmWKlIlDgi
every action. It was tiring. There was never actually a time when she was not387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsaiGfF4YL
watched by anyone.
Even at home, the servants would be watching her. They would387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡel3NdLT70M
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 property387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWfQ4K42HD
because she was too young and those would only be given to her after she was387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMF7LOLxgw
married as part of dowry.
As for marriage? There were only a few people of similar387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6gJAtF3fF
status whom her mother would consider.
Feng Ning originally planned to stay calm and composed,387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIen7pW8Jm5
pulling the servants to her side with the most harmless and slow methods. She387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwYDYyRTIY
didn’t want to be seen as a threat by anyone, keen on persevering her peaceful387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicHvHylClC
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, is387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFIAFqwCHQ
it?’
