Suyi raised her head only to see a white figure plunging toward her.
The white phoenix opened its arms widely in excitement and buried Suyi in its embrace.
“Sob… sob… Suyi, I’m finally back! You truly have no idea how many struggles I have gone through. I have lost my way for half a year. Those humans are truly mean. Knowing that I am lost, they had shown me the wrong way. I have been to the Northern Wilderness, traveled all the way from there to the Southern Ocean. I have even reached the Western Desert…”
Fortunately, the white phoenix was finally back to Liu Yun Kingdom after half a year.
The white phoenix scanned its surroundings and saw Nan Xian.
“Nan Xian, why are you here?” The white phoenix snorted disdainfully.
“You are no better than those vicious humans. You took my storeroom away and stole my tear in a bottle…”
Nan Xian disregarded the white phoenix and did not even spare a glance at it. His eyes fixed on the devastatingly stunning lady who was coming his way from not far away.
The white phoenix turned its head to look in the direction that Nan Xian was looking. Seeing Feng Ruqing, its eyes lit up.
“Xiao Qingqing, good to see you again. I am White Phoenix. I am the best friend of your future mother-in-law!” The white phoenix said reluctantly when it said the word ‘friend’. However, there was ample time ahead. It would definitely become Feng Ruqing future father-in-law one day.
“Suyi, I told you that Xiao Qingqing is pretty and amazing. Their children will definitely look better. Suyi, you will become a grandmother soon.” The white phoenix did not notice that Suyi’s face had stiffened.
‘What can I do now? How do I make phoenix soup?’
‘Did I say something wrong? I don’t think I did. Nan Xian and Xiao Qingqing are so in love with each other. Suyi will definitely have grandchildren soon.’ The white phoenix could finally sense the awkward atmosphere and rubbed its head. Its eyes were empty.
‘Calm down! I must calm down! I can’t lose my composure before Qing’er.’ Suyi’s hand on her sides balled into fists.
“Qing’er… I don’t mean to lie to you. I am just…” Suyi’s face stiffened. She turned her head around, her face was still calm as if nothing had happened.
“I know. You don’t want me to know anything about the Mu family.” Feng Ruqing broke into a bright smile.
“You’re right… but…” Suyi sighed.
“How do you know that?” Just as Suyi wanted to say something, she paused as her elegant face stiffened.
“I knew that Nan Xian is your son a long time ago.”
Otherwise, Feng Ruqing would never have let Suyi stay in the princess manor for half a year.
“When you did you find out?” Startled, Suyi asked.
“Half a year ago. More precisely, I knew it since the second day I met you.” Feng Ruqing shrugged as she smiled.
Suyi stroked the hair near her ear gently to hide her anxiety.
“Why did you never tell me that before?” Suyi thought that she had hidden it very well. She had never thought that Feng Ruqing had found out about her relationship with Nan Xian a long time ago.
“Oh, you seemed happy when you were pretending. I didn’t want to upset you. Hence, I pretended that didn’t know about it.” Her squinting eyes shone with delight. Her smile was as dazzling as a bright ray of sunlight.
“Have you settled everything?” Nan Xian walked forward, his slender fingers stroking the hair on Feng Ruqing’s forehead.
Nan Xian knew that Feng Ruqing went into closed-door cultivation as she had something on. However, he did not ask further and only stared calmly at the lady before him.
