Duke Gu Yu. I'm thinking, Duke Gu Yu is so nervous about this token, knowing it's in your hands, he must feel very unsafe for you. Perhaps it's better to keep it here with me.""Could Xi'er suspect t...Luo Li smiled, "You're becoming more and more carefree now."
Feng Lingxi held her teacup and took a sip. “I learned it all from the chief, besides, in this situation, what else can I do but be carefree Should I explain to each and every one of them that Feng Lingxi and Dugu Cheng didn’t have an argument, and we aren’t separating”
"That's right."
Luo Li glanced at Feng Ling Xi's eyes, filled with disdain, "I heard the Fourth Prince placed a bet at the gambling den and is about to make a fortune again."
"I also bought a share, otherwise where would I get the money to treat you all to dinner at Tianxianglou" Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu City, "Where's the landlord Want to take a gamble too"
"How much money do you think I'm short"
Dugu City's voice was a bit muffled. Xi'er seemed very interested in the identity of the owner of Tianxiang Building. Dugu City felt like he was eating his own vinegar. This feeling was really bad, but he didn't like hearing Xi'er's interest in the identity of the owner of Tianxiang Building. That tone made him sour.
Feng Lingxi heard his words, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she smiled, saying, "It seems like the host isn't in a good mood"
He is indeed in a bad mood today.
He walked away, looking at the eyes beneath Dugu City's mask. It was so much trouble to put on such a tough act. If Xi'er knew he was Dugu City, there wouldn't be so much brooding around.
Even now, if I'm uncomfortable, I can only bear it.
No one could have expected this, that Dugu City would eat his own vinegar.
"Oh"
Feng Lingxi frowned, her expression becoming serious. "Did the poster encounter something unpleasant Perhaps you could tell me about it. Maybe I can be of help."
"Aren't you afraid that the Fourth Prince will be angry if you help me"
Dugu Cheng lowered his voice, the displeasure in his tone causing Feng Lingxi to frown.
"Why is he angry You've helped me so many times, if I could, I would help you once too"
Du Gu Cheng felt speechless, it was like hitting himself in the foot with a stone. Looking into Feng Ling Xi's earnest eyes, what could he say
"Girl, the owner of Tianxiang Building is a wealthy and powerful figure that everyone in the world wants to befriend. His troubles are probably not something you can help with. You're barely looking after yourself right now, so it's best not to cause trouble for him."
Feng Cangkai spoke, looking at Dugu City, and cupped his hands together, "The host is so young and already has such accomplishments. The old man admires you."
"I don't dare."
Dugu Cheng returned the gift, hearing Feng Cangkai's words, Dugu Cheng retracted his emotions and made himself aware of his own identity, not forgetting who he was.
"The OP's situation is probably something only he can handle, you can't help."
Luo Li looked at Dugu Cheng with a profound meaning in her eyes. Feng Ling Xi caught Luo Li's gaze, and an idea flashed through her mind, but she quickly dismissed it. How was that possible She wasn't that charming yet.
"Well then, I won't say anything more."
Feng Lingxi served Feng Cangkai dishes, "Grandpa, try the dishes from Tianxiang Building. They taste much better than the imperial cuisine here."
"That must have cost a lot of money, right"
Feng Cangkai looked at the table full of dishes with a pained expression. He was heartbroken.
"I'll treat you, old general. You don't have to worry about it."
Dugu Cheng spoke, and Feng Cangkai's face of pain instantly vanished, replaced by a smile. "Then thank you, Lord of the House, this old man will not be polite."
Feng Lingxi was amused by her grandfather, he really is a mischievous old man.
"Your Highness."
Xiao Li walked in, leaned down to Feng Ling Xi's ear and whispered a few words. After listening, Feng Ling Xi stood up and said to Luo Li and the others, "I'll be right back, you guys eat first."
Watching her leave the private room, Dugu City's eyes followed her. He watched Feng Lingxi go out, whispering something to an unknown person. Feng Lingxi's expression was serious, as was Xiao Li's, as if something had happened.
The poster seems to be very concerned about Xi'er.
Feng Cangkai was eating, but his eyes were fixed on Dugu City's every move. From the moment Xi'er entered, this host had been paying attention to her from time to time. Every move, every word and deed of Xi'er, he paid close attention to.
In this situation, it is very dangerous.
"A debt of gratitude must be repaid with loyalty."
獨孤城 raised his wine cup and took a sip, his eyes deep and fathomless like the sea. He turned to Feng Cangkai, "General Lao, do you find this inappropriate"
Feng Cangkai bowed to Dugu City, "The old man thanks the master of the building for taking care of Xi'er."
Dugu Cheng nodded, but didn't say much. He restored his cold gaze.
Luo Li looked at Dugu Cheng like this, she felt quite sorry for him. This dual identity couldn't be revealed to outsiders, and the feeling of being suffocated was truly hard on him.
Feng Lingxi waited outside for a while before coming back. Looking at the heavy atmosphere inside, he asked in confusion, "What's going on"
"Grandpa said a few words to the landlord, nothing important. But you, what happened"
Feng Cangkai genuinely cares for Feng Lingxi. It's rare for Xi'er to bring him out to meet her friends. He wasn't interested in the Yaozu chieftain, but he didn't like the owner of Tianxianglou seeming interested in Xi'er.
Dai and Dugu Cheng are already married, even if this poster is excellent, it's too late. Xi'er can't be with him.
"Yao people's affairs."
Feng Lingxi looked at Luo Li, "This matter still needs to trouble the clan chief to help."
Luo Li frowned, watching Feng Ling Xi gesture towards him and ask, "Is it troublesome"
"As for the Yao people's matters, please ask the chieftain to help handle these things."
"I'll see you later," said Luoli, nodding her head. "Let's talk alone after this."
Feng Lingxi responded, “This is urgent. Chieftain, may I have a word with you privately”
Luo Li got up and went out, only then did Feng Ling Xi tell the truth.
The Yao people's recent location has been discovered by people from all over the world. They have taken people to their country, imprisoned them, and sent a letter to the Yao people saying that the people are in their possession and they want to discuss matters with Feng Lingxi in detail.
They abducted Yaozhu people from various countries and threatened her into meeting them. These people's only intention was to obtain the treasures of the Yaozhu clan.
And the news of her presence in the Yuan Dynasty was no longer a secret. Her dealings with Empress Cen had also been exposed, and this was not a secret either. These people wanted to see her now, for fear that if she went, she would not agree to hand over the Yao Clan Treasure, they wouldn't let her live.
"How can these people be so foolish They think the Yao Clan would disregard the Holy Master for their lives and deaths. What a joke."
The smile on Luo Li's face gradually vanished, replaced by a chilling iciness.
He hated being threatened the most, and they, for some reason, came looking for trouble, threatening him. They must be tired of living.
"Leave this to me."
Luo Li gave an order and glanced inside. "It's been several days since you left the Fourth Prince's Mansion. When you've had enough fun at the General's Mansion, return early to avoid causing unnecessary trouble. As for Empress Cen, since she's willing to test you, might as well confront her directly and see what she's trying to do."
Feng Lingxi nodded, "I have this under control, Elder. Thank you for your concern."
Luo Li leaned down and whispered in Feng Ling Xi's ear, "Let me remind you, the owner of this Tian Xiang Lou is acquainted with the Fourth Prince. He can be a great help to you. If you need anything, just find him. Don't miss out on such a good helper."really betrayed her, then she would leave this world without regrets."Is Xi'er really willing to stay here"Feng Ling Xi looked at Du Gu Cheng, her eyes soft, "Do you still remember our promise back th...
