Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Master, it seems there’s a mistake on the name list. Isn’t Gu Xiaonan Miss Go’s son? That child should be about the same age as the Young Master, right?”
Feng Tianlan raised his eyes from the book, giving him a silent glance.
His eyes were black and deep, like an endless abyss, emanating a hint of danger.
Jing Feng shivered, instantly realizing that he had made such an obvious mistake while his master was reading.
He quickly lowered his head and apologized, then informed him of his discovery, “Master, the selection tournament is extremely dangerous. By putting Gu Xiaonan’s name on the list, isn’t Gu’s family endangering him?”
Feng Tianlan replied calmly, “He can choose not to participate.”
Indeed, he could choose not to participate, but the rules of the Qiankun Academy stated that if one abstained, they could never participate in the selection tournament again.
Was Gu’s family intentionally setting him up?
If Gu Xiaonan competed, losing would be a minor matter, but if something happened to him, what would Gu Qingluan do?
But if Gu Xiaonan gave up, he could never participate in the selection tournament again.
Was Gu’s family intentionally doing this?
Their intentions were too malicious!
“Master, 1 think we should inform Miss Gu about this. At the very least, she should be aware that Gu’s family is trying to hinder her,” Jing Feng said, feeling a chilling breeze as if it came from the Arctic, freezing him to the bone.
Fine, he had violated his master’s taboo again.
He couldn’t mention Miss Gu on his own!
Jing Feng mentally scolded himself and chuckled, “Master, please continue reading. 1 won’t disturb you, and I’ll keep my mouth shut!”
Feng Tianlan lowered his head once again.
Jing Feng inwardly sighed in relief.
Fortunately, the master didn’t pursue the matter.
But now that he knew about it, he couldn’t pretend he didn’t know.
If the master found out he’d secretly gone to see Miss Gu, there’d be trouble.
Jing Feng requested permission from Feng Tianlan to go find the Young Master.
Feng Tianlan had no objections, and so Jing Feng quietly left the study, flying off to find Feng Yuanxi.
In the study, it took a while before Feng Tianlan put down the books, rubbing his tired eyes.
If Jing Feng were there, he would surely be astonished to see the title of the book he had just read—
“Parenting Guide”!
After reading for so long, Feng Tianlan left the study to find his son. As expected, he didn’t find him there; most likely, Jing Feng’s loose tongue had already told Feng Yuanxi about the list.
He remembered what he had just read in the parenting guide:
“Parents are indispensable to their children; lacking one would hinder their growth.”
“Strictness and kindness should be balanced for the best results.”
“Parents’ absence will impede their child’s development.”
The book mentioned that whether it was the lack of a mother or a father, it could easily cause defects in a child’s personality. Moreover, the more a child lacked something, the more they would desire it.
His son constantly seeking Gu Qingluan’s company seemed to confirm the book’s wisdom.
Was he only left with the option of finding a woman to be his son’s mother?
A strong aversion welled up in Feng Tianlan’s heart.
No one was perfect, and he refused to believe that his son would be worse off without a mother!
Taking a deep breath, Feng Tianlan decided to end this round of the selection tournament as soon as possible and bring his son back to the Holy Heaven Dynasty.
At this moment, Feng Yuanxi was blissfully unaware of his father’s plan.
After reporting to the Jun Mansion, he was surprised to learn that Gu Xiaonan wanted to participate in the selection tournament.
Then he found out that Gu Qingluan and Gu Xiaonan planned to go to the Qiankun Academy. Feng Yuanxi was delighted.
The Qiankun Academy was located in the Holy Heaven Dynasty. Although it was not close to his home, it was much closer than the Cangyuan Kingdom.
Moreover, he could tell his father that he wanted to go to the Qiankun Academy to study.
By then, wouldn’t he be able to see Beautiful Sister again?
Previously, he was worried that he wouldn’t be able to persuade Beautiful Sister to marry his father in a short time, and they might have to be separated.
Now this problem was easily solved, and things couldn’t be better for him.
What would the certain man, who was preparing to leave as soon as possible, feel if he found out about this news?
Night fell, and the morning light shone again.
In the blink of an eye, it was the second day—the day of the selection tournament..
