But, Feng Ruqing’s eyes dilated in fear because of this face which was covered in dust.
“Roar!”
The youth roared. His power was suddenly unleashed and exploded in the air. The grass and trees nearby were completely destroyed by his power.
Soon, the youth fell backward and hit the ground loudly and helplessly.
Feng Ruqing’s face changed and turned pale at that moment. Her eyes were filled with deep fear. She rushed toward the youth who lay on the ground unconscious.
Her hand was trembling terribly and she hugged the young beggar tightly. She got up and went out of the manor.
There were two masters from the palace hidden in the dark corner. The looked at each other in astonishment.
Did the princess fall in love with the youth? Would she try to sleep with him when he is out cold?
The first secret guard kept quiet for a moment and asked, “Do we need to report to His Majesty?”
Report to His Majesty? How to report? Just say that the princess picked up a youth as her gigolo?
But if they did not report to His Majesty when they knew of the truth, His Majesty would surely make them pay for it when His Majesty learned about it later.
The second guard hinted at the first guard and said, “You go and continue protecting the princess. I’ll go and report to His Majesty.”
“Alright.”

Feng Ruqing had always been called the most obese person in Liu Yun Kingdom. The public had a very deep impression on her even when she seldom left the palace in the first place.
Thus, the whole Liu Yun Kingdom was in great shock when they found out that Feng Ruqing brought a youth back to the princess’s manor.
Especially when that youth was still unconscious. They gossiped about it then. They thought that Feng Ruqing had fallen for the youth and had given an order to knock him unconscious before bringing him back to the princess’s manor.
Therefore, her bad reputation was made even worse because of this incident.
In the princess’s manor, Liu Li and Qing Ling were stunned as they watched Feng Ruqing bring a youth back to her room. They were so shocked that none of them uttered a word and just watched with dull eyes.
The princess... brought a man back? And they went straight into her room?
Did she not want to sleep with the state preceptor before this? Was the state preceptor too difficult to be conquered that the princess knocked down some random man and brought him back out of anger?
“No, I need to go and stop the princess.” Qing Ling almost burst into tears.
They could forget about when the princess fell for Liu Yuchen before. But now, the princess had brought some random man home and did he even deserve the princess?
She did not hope that the princess would give herself up in a rush.
Liu Li quickly held Qing Ling back by holding her sleeve when she saw that Qing Ling was about to break into the princess’s room. “The princess is no longer her old self anymore. I believe that she has changed. Let’s wait and see. If we do hear the man crying for help, we will go and stop the princess...”
...
The wind blew softly. The bedsheet ruffled slightly.
Feng Ruqing stared at the youth who was lying on the bed. She could not help but reach out to touch the youth’s face gently.
It resembled him so much... so much...
His facial features, his eyebrows... All resembled Che’er so much.
‘Che’er, is that you?’
Suddenly, the youth who was lying on the bed opened his eyes.
His eyes were so clear that she never saw them before.
Feng Ruqing recovered her composure and closed her eyes slightly.
He was not Che’er.
Even if his facial features resembled Che’er, she could see from his eyes that he was not her younger brother, Feng Jianche.
“Who are you?” The youth gazed at Feng Ruqing and asked in his clear and loud voice.
Feng Ruqing’s eyes narrowed and said, “I’m Feng Ruqing.”
Her gaze was locked onto the youth’s face. But, she was disappointed to find out that the youth did not show any change in his emotion after hearing this name. His eyes were still so clear and honest.
