Yunchen looked at the familiar flowers and spoke first, "Miss...haven't we met before""!"Mo Yunchen's first words instantly made Hua Duo'er's body stiffen even more. She smiled bitterly in her heart,...If an ordinary woman heard Phoenix's icy voice, she would have been frightened out of her wits long ago.

A normal woman, after being spoken to like that, would have long since been so ashamed she’d want to bury her head in the ground. And what’s more, Feng Ming's attitude at this very moment was so cold and distant.

But Xi Zi Ke'er was different from ordinary women. The women of their Xiliang country were bold and fearless, unlike the timid and coy women of other countries.

In their Xiliang country, women are respected.

If one encounters a man she likes, she naturally should boldly ask him if he is available for marriage and if he would be willing to marry her.

So, facing Fengming's cold words and his chilling eyes, Xizi Ke'er did not shy away. Instead, she boldly met Fengming's gaze.

She blinked and stared straight at Feng Ming, asking, "Master Feng, do you have a spouse"

Puu~

An Xuetang was currently holding a bowl of warm water Phoenix Ming had just passed her, about to take a sip.

Who knew that suddenly heard Xi Zi Ke'er's question, she almost scared her to spit it out.

A hint of shock flashed in her eyes, but it was quickly replaced by a look of gossip. Her gaze swept back and forth between Feng Ming and Xi Zi Ke'er.

Phoenix's gaze caught her watching the commotion with amusement. His brows furrowed, he turned his head to glance at her, his voice icy, "Is there anything else that needs to be addressed tonight If not, you should go rest."

Having said that, he stood up and walked two steps towards An Xue Tang, intending to pull her away.

But how could Xizi Ke'er let him go so easily After all these years, she had finally set her sights on a man, oh no... she had also fallen for the King of Beijang.

It's a pity that King Beijiang and Queen Beijiang are the perfect match, so she won't try to be disliked.

Besides, she only admired the looks of King Beijang. At this moment, she felt that Fengming was a different kind of handsome, and it was completely different from King Beijang's style.

When she looked at King Beijiang, she only admired him without feeling moved.

But at that moment, looking at Feng Ming, she truly felt what it meant to have a heart flutter and her heart race.

Initially, for the sake of the Northern Frontier King, she would even dare to risk her life and run to the Northern Frontier City. Now that Phoenix Call has fallen into her possession within the Princess Mansion, how could she bear to let him leave without any answers

But she also knew not to easily provoke Fēngmíng, so she cleverly changed the subject and suddenly reached out to grab n Xuětáng's arm.

Indeed, as she approached An Xuetang, Feng Ming instinctively stopped and did not continue forward.

He was clearly extremely displeased with Xizi Ke'er's actions. At this time, his deep and cold eyes only glanced at her once, his voice devoid of any emotion, "Let go."

Although he looks pretty scary like that, as if he's about to attack her at any moment.

But Xi Zier still gritted her teeth and shook her head, "Lord Feng... Lord Feng, you haven't answered my question yet. Are you married If not, what do you think of me"

"...."

Feng Ming not only didn't answer, but his voice grew colder at that moment, a chill radiating from him. "I said, let go."

"!"

At this time, An Xuetang also realized that her older brother seemed to be truly angry. She quickly took the initiative to pry open Xizi Ke'er's hand and then comforted Xizi Ke'er:

"It's late. Let's save any matters for tomorrow. Get some rest now. Today, I saw you running around in your courtyard several times. We can discuss anything further tomorrow."

After she finished speaking, she walked over to Fengming's side on her own accord.

Feng Ming didn't even glance at Xi Zi Ke Er. Right now, he had a cold face and directly grabbed An Xue Tang's wrist, pulling her out the door.

Xizi Ke'er pursed her lips. She wasn't stupid, of course she also felt Feng Ming's changing expression and the sudden drop in air pressure.

But she didn't think she asked anything out of line, why was he so angry

It's really something... This person has such a big temper.

She just asked if he was married or not. He could have just said yes or no, why get angry

Xizi Ke'er pouted, but she still didn't forget to instruct her subordinates to lead the Northern Frontier Princess and Young Master Feng to a prepared courtyard for rest.

......

Coming out of Xizi Ke'er's courtyard, An Xue Tang walked behind Feng Ming. She glanced at his still sullen profile and, for some reason, her eyes darkened instantly.

After a moment's hesitation, I couldn't help but ask, "Brother, are you still unable to let go of Fu'er"

"!"

Feng Ming stopped her steps, subconsciously turning around. Her face grew even darker, her brows furrowed tightly, and a pair of extremely displeased eyes stared straight at An Xue Tang. "What do you mean by that"

To hear An Xue Tang actually ask such a question, Feng Ming tightened his grip on her wrist, knowing she must have misunderstood something. His face was covered in black lines:

"What could you possibly have to let go of her for An Xue Tang, remember this for me: I am severing all romantic attachments from this day forward. Besides our familial bond, there will be no other emotional ties in my life. Don't joke about this with me, and if you dare speak such nonsense again, beware of my wrath."

An Xuetang, looking at his earnest eyes, could also tell that he seemed to have no feelings for Fu'er.

But he was extremely averse to anyone bringing up his personal affairs, this... what on earth was the reason

Besides, why would a perfectly normal person choose to cut off all romantic ties

But looking at Feng Ming's attitude now, she didn't dare to ask further, lest she upset him even more.

After Feng Ming finished speaking, he reached out and rubbed her hair. "Alright, live your life well and don't worry about my affairs."

"Got it."

……

Meanwhile, Xi Zi and her daughter anxiously waited for several hours, but no one returned with news.

She sat in the study, expressionless, continuing to wait. Two bodyguards stood flanking her on either side, their breathing deliberately shallow.

The room was stiflingly hot, the air thick with an oppressive silence. Everyone felt it—the weight of unspoken words hanging heavy in the stillness. A palpable gloom seemed to cling to Xi Zi's face, casting a shadow over her features. The very air around them felt stagnant, making it hard to breathe.

Just then, someone knocked and came in. The person looked visibly disappointed.

Xi Zi Pan'er immediately knew that the person sent out tonight was surely another failure.

Her piercing cold eyes stared at her loyal subordinate before her, fists clenched and teeth gritted, "How is it going"

The confidants knew that Her Highness would be furious, but they still mustered their courage and bowed, saying, "My Lady, those people...none survived."

"!"

Xizi Pander at this moment, anger surged through her, “Trash... you're all a bunch of trash! What use are you to me!”

She was furious, her eyes wide with anger, her features contorted into a mask of rage. Her face was flushed a purplish red, as if about to explode.ginally, Dr. Chen thought they were just looking for someone and didn't seem like they would do anything to him.But right now, he clearly saw killing intent in this person's eyes.Upon seeing this poin...
