The Mysterious Figure
The man's gaze swept lightly over Feng Mian Xue's pale face, and a faint sense of pity arose in his heart.
For a moment, he had forgotten that he couldn't touch women casually, or else his body would automatically react with rejection. When he saw her fall down, there was an impulse in his heart to pick her up.
He had always been one to think of something and then do it without any hesitation, so he picked her up in his arms.
It wasn't until everything had happened that he realized what he was doing!
However, what puzzled him was that his body didn't feel uncomfortable at all, but instead had a lingering affection for the soft and warm feeling on her body.
Not just him, even the hidden guards were shocked and stunned.
The master clearly couldn't touch women, but this time he hugged Miss Feng's fourth daughter and didn't throw her away directly!
The man didn't delve deeper into why he wasn't repelled by her alone, his movements gentle to the extreme, afraid that if he wasn't careful, he would hurt her.
He received the news that Chang Ge had arrived at Feng Fu, and he knew something would happen. So he put down his urgent matters and rushed over. Just in time to see this soft-looking little woman, grasping a washing board, killing all around her with a majestic scene.
His originally worried heart finally relaxed a bit. When he thought of those snake-like beauties being beaten and fleeing, the corners of his lips couldn't help but curve upwards slightly, drawing an arc that was like a crescent moon in the dark night sky, shining brightly and dazzlingly to the extreme.
It had been many years since he last saw her, she had grown up a lot, but still retained the appearance of her childhood, allowing him to recognize her at a glance.
Under the sunlight, a few strands of crimson hair fluttered like silk, falling on Feng Mian Xue's cheeks.
A soft and gentle voice whispered with a faint smile:
"You little kitten, with your teeth and claws out, are truly adorable!"
Feng Mei Xue heard the seductive magnetic voice by her ear, and she really wanted to open her eyes. However, this body was truly too weak, having gone hungry for many days, and after her previous intense exertion, she had already been exhausted to the point of collapse. Even lifting an eyelid seemed especially difficult.
She always had a strong sense of defense, even in a man's arms, she wouldn't forget to frown and struggle a bit.
Her clothes were wet and dirty, staining the man's clean and dust-free clothes, but he seemed to have not noticed. His gaze fell on her tattered clothes, noticing that her sleeves had obvious signs of being torn, and the man's originally gentle eyes suddenly turned cold.
A pair of profound eyes, containing icy coldness, enough to freeze the entire sky and earth into a frozen landscape.
"Go and investigate what happened at Feng Manor today!"
The man's cold and detached voice floated lightly in the air, a ripple that vanished from his side, disappearing on the spot, just like an invisible and intangible breeze had passed by, leaving no trace.
"It seems it's time for you to leave! Although it's dangerous there, at least you'll have a place to settle down!"
A sigh-like voice, like a dream, lingered and turned into wisps of smoke, dispersing and disappearing.
He should have come earlier. Originally thought that the Feng Mansion would treat them well, but it seems that some people have forgotten their past kindness and did not treat them kindly.
Through a forest of plum blossoms, early summer has just arrived, the plum blossoms have not yet bloomed in profusion, only the lush leaves, washed by last night's rain, are softly translucent, filled with a fresh scent.
After the plum forest, there is a cold and quiet building. The three characters "Mei Yin Lou" are flying and dancing on the golden signboard, looking very elegant. The strokes of the characters do not seem as strong and hard as those written by men, but instead have an extra touch of elegance.
The woman living in Mei Yun Lou was also a strange woman who made countless men willing to surrender, but ultimately ended up with the fate of a phoenix with broken wings, humbled in this small Phoenix Mansion.
The man put Feng Yuxue on the soft couch beside him, covered her with a thin blanket, and then turned to leave.
"Wait for me to take you away!"
Feng Mei Xue heard the voice that seemed like a promise in her daze, the faint scent of plum blossoms lingering around her nostrils, making it seem as if she could see a tree full of white plum blossoms blooming luxuriantly, big petals dancing wildly in the air, filling the space with fragrance.
He, who is he?
When Feng Mei Xue slowly woke up, she found herself back in the Mei Yin Lou, still vaguely remembering the clear and crisp sound of the palace bell echoing in her ears.
The vast Mei Yun Lou, apart from her and her mother's cold and cheerful faces, had no one else. If she told anyone, they wouldn't believe it - the noble Madame of the Feng Manor and the legitimate Miss, yet there wasn't a single servant by their side.
The Plum Blossom Pavilion was originally built in a secluded place, and with no one asking about it, it became even more desolate and quiet.
The small path is overgrown with weeds, the windowsill is covered with green moss and vines, sunlight is blocked outside the window, only seeing a few rays of light floating in the air. Dusty mist wanders, sunlight is thin.
Feng Mei Xue suddenly sat up, remembering that her mother had not taken her medicine yet. She quickly got down from the old soft couch and threw off the thin quilt covering her body. Her wet clothes were somehow already dry.
Look at those marks, as if they had been steamed dry, without a single wisp of steam.
The thin blanket that had been used for many years was laid aside, the blanket was washed thinner and thinner, but it was very clean. Her gaze lingered on the thin blanket, the faint warmth seemed to still retain a hint of cold fragrance. Like plum blossoms in the snow, the fragrance floated subtly, not strong, but extremely special.
She averted her gaze and walked into the inner bedroom, where she saw her mother's pale face. Her skin was almost transparent, her complexion wan, her eye sockets sunken, with a sense of emaciation, where could one still see the beauty of the past? It seemed that just a gust of wind could blow her away.
Feng Mei Xue looked at her lying quietly on the bed, and her heart trembled slightly. Feeling the sadness surging from the bottom of her heart, she knew that this was not her own emotion, but belonged to the original owner of this body.
At the moment when she was about to be humiliated, Feng Muxue had no other choice. She was a weak woman, how could she escape from those hungry wolves?
If she hadn't been determined to seek death, losing her innocence and ruining her reputation, Mother would only be blamed for being too lenient. At that time, she didn't think much, cowardly all her life, she was brave only once at the moment of death!
If she were dead, Father might remember Mother's lonely and helpless situation, cherish the love between husband and wife, and send someone to take care of Mother.
It was just that in her heart, she still couldn't put her mind at ease about her mother, which is why at this moment, she had such a strong emotional fluctuation, even affecting Feng Mian Xue's emotions.
"Don't worry! I'll take care of her for you!"
Feng Mei Xue silently recited in her heart, and the intense emotions at the bottom of her heart finally subsided.
Dragging his weak body, he took a deep breath and walked towards the bedside. He reached out to touch his mother's forehead, which was unusually hot to the touch.
The window that she had closed before leaving was somehow opened, and the cold wind blew in all night, chilling her fragile body to the bone; it would be strange if she didn't catch a fever!
No one else will come here except her, if she dies, even if Mother only has a fever, it's fatal!
Feng Mei Xue's eyes flashed a cold light, her hands clenched into fists.
I knew it was those people who did it!
On one hand, he was determined to put her to death, and on the other hand, he ruthlessly laid hands on his own mother!
These people really have no shame!
She's low-key and easy to bully? Then she'll show these people in a high-profile way who's really easy to bully!
