Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Feng Ruqing followed Suyi’s glance. It was Liu Yuchen who was hiding in the corner of the street.
With a drunken look and a flushed face, Liu Yuchen seemed to have drunk plenty of wine. He was like a lingering soul that keeps haunting Feng Ruqing. His eyes were still fixed on her.
“It’s him again! Is he planning to ruin my princess manor because Nan Xian had tasked Xiao Qing to set fire to the chancellor manor?” Feng Ruqing frowned slightly.
Hearing this, Suyi’s body stiffened.
‘Nan Xian tasked Xiao Qing to set fire to a manor? Xiao Qing is capable of setting a fire? Wait… Nan Xian has actually done this?’
“Or would it be that Nan Xian spiked the Liu family’s food with laxatives? Xiao Qing told me that Nan Xian spiked everyone in the Divine Herbs Sect by putting laxatives into their food before. Perhaps, he did the same thing to the Liu family?” Feng Ruqing frowned even harder.
‘Nan Xian spiked food with laxatives?’
Suyi’s face was stiffened. Her son who had always been holding himself with a noble bearing had actually resorted to such a despicable mean—spiking food with laxatives?
“Qing’er. That man… is your ex-husband?”
“Um… I dumped him. After that my friend set fire to his manor. My mother dismissed his father from the chancellor post. Not long after the chancellor’s manor was fixed, Xiao Qing had once again set fire to the manor. Hence, he hates me so much and has been stalking me since. His eyes are truly vicious and cunning. I don’t know what he is after.”
Suyi glanced at Liu Yuchen.
‘Eyes filled with viciousness and cunning?’
Suyi felt that Feng Ruqing had gotten the wrong message. The man’s eyes were full of affection. Apparently, he still loved Feng Ruqing.
“Qing’er, you don’t like him?” Suyi smiled lightly. Her smile was so beautiful that it could bring everyone to their knees.
“I only like the state preceptor— Nan Xian.” Apparently, Feng Ruqing did not notice the way Suyi had addressed her.
Hearing this, Suyi broke into a smile—warm and heart-melting.
Feng Ruqing jumped down from the wolf’s back with a smile in her eyes.
“You are the same like the state preceptor. Both of you don’t like smiling. In fact, both of you look stunning when you smile. You don’t need to hold yourself back on purpose.”
“I have gotten used to this.” The corner of Suyi’s lips curved into a faint smile.
Ever since Suyi left the Mu family, she had gotten used to hiding all her feelings. She could never change it after so many years…
Feng Ruqing raised her arm to stroke Suyi’s face.
“There must be a reason behind this for both you and the state preceptor. I won’t ask the state preceptor. I am waiting for him to tell me on his own. As for you… I won’t ask either. You should not wait for the person who has made you who you are today. He is not worthy of your effort.”
Suyi’s body stiffened. Previously, if she had heard Feng Ruqing’s words, she would have felt touched. However, she felt that if Feng Ruqing were a man, she would be the master of flirting. 1

Knowing that Feng Ruqing had returned to Liu Yun Kingdom, Tang Yin was thrilled and rushed out the manor together with Nalan Jing only to see Feng Ruqing stroking another lady’s face.
Although Nan Xian had grown up and Suyi was no longer young, time did not leave its traces on Suyi’s face. Simply no one would know that Nan Xian was her son if she did not tell.
Seeing Feng Ruqing was so close to Suyi, poor Tang Yin’s eyes reddened, her heart was filled with grievance.
“Xiao Qing, you don’t love me anymore?”
“Have we ever been in love before?” Feng Ruqing was startled as she stared at Tang Yin for a while before she asked.
