Feng Ning hated these kind of banquets.
She was thankful that she had the skill of putting on a163Please respect copyright.PENANAVZEoZGcJ3J
blank and innocent face due to the fact that it was her natural face. After163Please respect copyright.PENANAU9sXTLDvAR
all, in her past life, she was so gullible that she ended up destroying herself163Please respect copyright.PENANAorGBpjl3Yl
because of her kindness.
The others didn’t seem to be willing to talk to her that163Please respect copyright.PENANAp7ptthyzg1
much here. Even her elder sister, Feng Quan was busy to talk with the other163Please respect copyright.PENANAmGaEgQ5b3e
girls and didn’t have time to care for her. As for Feng Zhi Liu, she was too163Please respect copyright.PENANAA01VPnnL1T
young to make trouble.
‘I’ll walk around now.’
Now that the Emperor had left the scene towards the garden,163Please respect copyright.PENANA7cd4iClYxR
only half of the people stayed here. Most of them were the children and the163Please respect copyright.PENANANLbiRzQ4bd
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. She163Please respect copyright.PENANAVOnkYF2CqH
raised her head, noticing that the one who talked was Lin Han Xing. Because he163Please respect copyright.PENANAZBOC3xX5RT
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 nodded163Please respect copyright.PENANAd0CHvtw2Ht
faintly. It seemed that he didn’t seem to care that much about what his father163Please respect copyright.PENANAkP8n3tAD8k
thought.
Lin Han Xing snorted. “Come with me, Hu Xi.”
“Yes, Father.”
As he watched them left, Lin Zi Xuan’s eyes darkened163Please respect copyright.PENANApDpwfjO391
considerably. However, he didn’t leave his seat and merely played with the cup163Please respect copyright.PENANAoRkUC8z2Tq
in his hand. He raised his head towards the three young girls who sat not far163Please respect copyright.PENANAvNVMfr5hom
from him, one was busy talking with others, another one was carried by the163Please respect copyright.PENANAj6dj2zvKt1
servant, and the last one was walking towards him.
…Walking towards him?
“Imperial Cousin Zi Xuan.” A soft and childish voice rang in163Please respect copyright.PENANAAWb96VdpfV
his ear. The tone was low and gentle, giving off refreshing feeling. Yet at the163Please respect copyright.PENANAvxKXya8s1U
same time, the voice carried the hint of carefulness, one that shouldn’t have163Please respect copyright.PENANAB3rp2AZ2Oe
appeared in such a young girl.
Lin Zi Xuan lowered his head and looked at the young girl163Please respect copyright.PENANArJmMO1vBD9
who was only 6 years old in front of him. “Princess Ning.”
Feng Ning’s lips twitched slightly. She was certainly not163Please respect copyright.PENANA5g8hqAuYBz
used with being addressed like that. Even though her servants sometimes called163Please respect copyright.PENANAFwwVR3E6Qr
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 walk163Please respect copyright.PENANArM73RjGdrn
around?” Feng Ning asked while tilting her head, looking like an innocent young163Please respect copyright.PENANA4eFi594WLI
girl.
Lin Zi Xuan was staring at the young girl in front of him.163Please respect copyright.PENANAPgoDrg6Lvl
“Father didn’t want me to create any trouble.”
“I see.”
Feng Ning could sense that this prince was keeping his163Please respect copyright.PENANAQ7Eq8c0V2J
distance, so she didn’t want to try probing him anymore. She turned around,163Please respect copyright.PENANA3eQmRqeZps
right at the time Feng Quan was looking for her. “Sister, let’s go to the163Please respect copyright.PENANA7Fq2L0KvTk
garden. The others said that outside is very beautiful.”
“Yes, Sister.”
The two of them walked out while Feng Zhi Liu was still163Please respect copyright.PENANAD6rDD3DjZ1
resting in her maidservants’ hand. She was still three years old, so it was163Please respect copyright.PENANAruOfKK6Soo
only natural that she would feel sleepy most of the time. Even her twin brother163Please respect copyright.PENANA6dJV3XKPxQ
was not in much better condition under their mother’s hand.
Lin Zi Xuan stayed still in his place when he saw his father163Please respect copyright.PENANAduOr0ofGit
went back with Prime Minister Fang Hou Zheng. His father’s face was dark as he163Please respect copyright.PENANAx0GvbUDr2A
pointed at him. “Go to the garden and accompany the princesses!”
“Yes, Father.”
Reaching the garden, Lin Zi Xuan could instantly see that163Please respect copyright.PENANAyLKJ7MVuwZ
his half younger brother, Lin Hu Xi, was also talking with the two princess.163Please respect copyright.PENANApUnRXIRGbw
However, it was clear that Feng Quan refused to get close to him and even gave163Please respect copyright.PENANARGq1Ggrhcg
him polite distance.
The two of them were more or less of the same age and Feng163Please respect copyright.PENANAKM2Pfxl7AX
Quan was someone who had learned etiquette more, so she refused.
“Are you not willing to play with me, Cousin Quan?” Lin Hu163Please respect copyright.PENANAR80uuRyXJm
Xi asked in low tone.
Feng Quan was smiling without mirth. “I’m afraid that it’ll163Please respect copyright.PENANAPdU2i6CK0d
be inappropriate, Your Highness. How about if you play with the other boys?”
Even though she was calling with the word ‘Your Highness,’163Please respect copyright.PENANAvYGbU3JRko
Lin Hu Xi could sense the coldness from deep within Feng Quan’s bone. Because163Please respect copyright.PENANAGVsY43e760
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,163Please respect copyright.PENANAsUgM57Rr2p
I want to play with the other girls.”
Both rejection.
Lin Hu Xi could only watch helplessly as the two of them163Please respect copyright.PENANA6rhlJSLWWs
headed to the group of girls. He looked in the direction of Princess Lin Mei163Please respect copyright.PENANAX2HZOg63tS
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 near163Please respect copyright.PENANAGydSMOW36b
an empty table, finding a random chair to sit. His dark eyes were watching the163Please respect copyright.PENANAI1qKmok8Oa
three princesses who were staying at this place one by one.
He hadn’t returned to the Capital City in many years and he163Please respect copyright.PENANA7E9PITbQjG
knew very well that his father wished for his younger brother to be able to163Please respect copyright.PENANAeaudjnvNb7
marry one of the princess. Based on the age, his younger brother might be163Please respect copyright.PENANAz0wo2RxVUP
targeting either Lin Mei Ni or Feng Ning. But so far, he hadn’t been163Please respect copyright.PENANAFcAljlCYND
successful.
‘How tiring.’
Looking at how these girls had been learning how to bootlick163Please respect copyright.PENANAbglxMKUBjv
at young age, Feng Ning was finding it harder and harder to maintain her sweet163Please respect copyright.PENANAurSx3chvUU
and foolish smile. She really need to take a break.
“Sister, I want to sit down.” Feng Ning’s voice sounded a bit163Please respect copyright.PENANAY3qK9kwJyB
pleading.
Feng Quan looked at her younger sister and nodded her head.163Please respect copyright.PENANAvk7CIgb34c
“In that case, please be careful, Sister. We wouldn’t want anything to happen163Please respect copyright.PENANAGJX5rVbFGm
to you.”
“Yes, I will be careful.”
Feng Ning sighed internally, knowing full well that her163Please respect copyright.PENANAElQ4RWTvBm
older sister must be hoping that something happened to her. She glanced around163Please respect copyright.PENANAPKRxX7cA0r
and walked towards the tables. At this moment, she noticed that Lin Zi Xuan was163Please respect copyright.PENANAcZlMfAZaS8
sitting on the empty table, his dark eyes were watching his surroundings like a163Please respect copyright.PENANAz7q1heUDKm
patient wolf that was waiting for its prey.
As their gaze met, Feng Ning felt that his gaze was somewhat163Please respect copyright.PENANAEqCHpC9u32
familiar. It was not like she had seen him before, but she had seen that type163Please respect copyright.PENANAXzRCXvSx6U
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 to163Please respect copyright.PENANA2RUoudgLDU
survive, they would have to rely on their man if they wished to do anything. It163Please respect copyright.PENANAbq4PTr7I4x
was not like she didn’t want to be independent, but she realized that many163Please respect copyright.PENANA6a1MJwWmFN
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,163Please respect copyright.PENANA0rEZk74v5t
there were a lot of things that she had to pay attention to, and most163Please respect copyright.PENANAvSVU8GymJL
importantly, being in the Imperial Family meant that they had to mind their163Please respect copyright.PENANAIIFPTo5TBu
every action. It was tiring. There was never actually a time when she was not163Please respect copyright.PENANAXsUFq881Yl
watched by anyone.
Even at home, the servants would be watching her. They would163Please respect copyright.PENANAEodRFqqgvb
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 property163Please respect copyright.PENANA2cQ6eKMCGK
because she was too young and those would only be given to her after she was163Please respect copyright.PENANA6ByMDjiqT9
married as part of dowry.
As for marriage? There were only a few people of similar163Please respect copyright.PENANAvSpteUsRNL
status whom her mother would consider.
Feng Ning originally planned to stay calm and composed,163Please respect copyright.PENANAfJ6wwnP1cZ
pulling the servants to her side with the most harmless and slow methods. She163Please respect copyright.PENANA2VA5AScZzD
didn’t want to be seen as a threat by anyone, keen on persevering her peaceful163Please respect copyright.PENANAZpKy4QyDrn
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, is163Please respect copyright.PENANA18CsNNMFTd
it?’
