Si Xin Xin’s gaze kept darting behind Si Jian Ye.
“Daddy, I’m feeling much better. Where did the pretty sister go?”
She blinked her bright eyes, her small face filled with anticipation.
Si Jian Ye crouched down and took her hand, his voice full of tenderness. “The pretty sister went back to rest.”
Si Xin Xin couldn’t hide her disappointment. She drooped her head dejectedly. “I thought I’d see the pretty sister when I woke up. She promised to play with me after my treatment was finished.”
Seeing her dejected expression, Si Jian Ye’s heart softened. He gently tapped her nose. “Feng Ning He has already spent a day with you. She needs to rest too. I’ll take you to see her tomorrow.”
His words brightened Si Xin Xin’s eyes. She nodded obediently. “Okay! Daddy, you have to keep your promise!”
Shi Wan.
It wasn’t until she returned to her room that Feng Ning He gradually accepted the fact that Si Xin Xin’s father was Si Jian Ye.
She felt a headache coming on and instinctively reached up to gently rub her temples.
She racked her brain but never imagined that such a troublesome figure would be so close by.
*Ying ying!*
Xiao Zhao, who had just woken up from a nap, emerged from her dantian. It blinked its sapphire eyes and nudged her arm with its round body.
*Master, what are you thinking about?*
Feng Ning He gently stroked the soft fur on Xiao Zhao’s body and smiled. “Do you know who Si Xin Xin’s father is?”
Xiao Zhao shook its head, its clear, glass-like pupils looking at her with a watery gaze.
*Master, who is Xin Xin’s father?*
*I can sense that this person’s identity is extraordinary. How can someone in the small country of Li see through my identity at a glance!*
Feng Ning He’s gaze deepened. She moved her lips and slowly uttered a few crisp words: “King of Hell, Si Jian Ye.”
Xiao Zhao was stunned. Its fur seemed to puff up instantly, as if it had been shocked. It rubbed its eyes with its small hands, its eyes filled with astonishment, and it cried out anxiously.
*Xin Xin’s father is actually Si Jian Ye?*
*Si Jian Ye is the notorious King of Hell! How can such a terrifying person have such an adorable daughter!*
For Feng Ning He, none of this was the main point.
The only thing that could affect her emotions was everything that had happened in the Tian Xue Mountain secret realm.
That day, she not only fell onto Si Jian Ye, but she had also kissed him…
In just a moment, she shook off all the emotions from her mind, hugged Xiao Zhao, and bounced onto the bed. “No matter what Si Xin Xin’s father’s identity is, Si Jian Ye and I only had a transaction.”
She would pretend that nothing had happened.
Once the transaction was complete, they would have no further connection.
The next day.
Feng Tong Tong was getting ready in her room.
Tao Hua styled her hair for her, praising her. “Third Miss, you are truly beautiful. Only you are worthy of the position of Imperial Consort.”
The compliments made Feng Tong Tong beam with joy, her eyes full of smiles. “You always know what to say. Is it almost time? The First Prince should be arriving soon.”
With the wedding approaching, the entire Feng family was busy with the preparations.
Feng Tong Tong was discussing the selection of wedding items with Bai Li Ye.
Tao Hua busied herself nearby, saying, “In a little while, the First Prince will be here too.”
“Tong Tong, good news!”
A cheerful female voice quickly reached the room.
Zhang Shi, with a smile in her eyes, stepped into the room. “Your second sister has replied.”
As soon as she heard news of her second sister, Feng Tong Tong’s eyes lit up, and her voice became noticeably eager. “Did she say when she’ll be back?”
The person she was most looking forward to now was Feng Qing Cheng’s return.
Feng Ning He had already caused so much trouble for the Feng family. If this continued, the Feng family might even change hands.
Zhang Shi replied without hesitation. “She said she will definitely arrive before your wedding to congratulate you.”
Feng Qing Cheng was a disciple of the Immortal Sect. Her presence to offer congratulations would also bring Feng Tong Tong honor.
Feng Tong Tong smirked, her exquisitely made-up face breaking into a bright smile. “This is wonderful! With second sister back, I’ll finally have someone to support me!”
With Immortal Xu present, they wouldn’t dare to touch Feng Ning He.
But Feng Qing Cheng had the backing of the Immortal Sect. At that time, let alone Feng Ning He, even Immortal Xu wouldn’t be worth mentioning.
Zhang Shi was equally pleased, a smile in her eyes. She gently patted Feng Tong Tong’s shoulder. “For the next few days, you just need to focus on marrying the First Prince. You don’t need to worry about anything else.”
Feng Tong Tong beamed, her beautiful eyes filled with anticipation. “Mother is right. Once I marry the First Prince, it will be easy to control Feng Ning He.”
Shi Wan.
Feng Ning He was sleeping soundly.
Xiao Zhao was lazily lying beside her.
“Pretty sister.”
At that moment, a childish female voice reached her ears.
Feng Ning He, in her sleep, raised her delicate eyebrows and instinctively opened her eyes.
As she opened her eyes, she saw a petite and adorable figure standing in front of her.
“Xin Xin?”
She uttered the two crisp words with slight surprise, questioning herself if she was hallucinating.
Si Xin Xin blinked her bright eyes, her long, curled eyelashes fluttering slightly. Two dimples appeared and disappeared on her tender cheeks as she smiled.
Seeing the smiling face before her, Feng Ning He was so startled that she quickly sat up, looking at her with wide eyes. “Xin Xin, is it really you? How are you here?”
In response to her question, Si Xin Xin smiled sweetly and happily burrowed into the quilt. “Pretty sister, I came to play with you! You promised me yesterday that you would play with me after my treatment was finished.”
Xiao Zhao was woken by the commotion.
Seeing that it was Si Xin Xin, Xiao Zhao nudged her with its round body.
Feng Ning He then remembered the promise she had made to Si Xin Xin yesterday.
She nodded generously. “I’ll get up first and play with you later. By the way, Xin Xin, why are you alone? Where is your father?”
“The First Miss of the Feng family has just woken up and is already so eager to see me?”
A cold male voice sounded from outside the room.
As the door was pushed open, a tall figure entered.
The sunlight enveloped the man, illuminating his figure. The golden mask covering his face shone even more brightly.
Si Jian Ye was followed by A Xi.
It was clear that they had brought Si Xin Xin.
The male voice reached Feng Ning He’s ears, causing her to raise her eyebrows slightly, a hint of displeasure in her eyes. “What is the King of Hell saying? I was just worried that Xin Xin might have run off without you knowing.”
Si Xin Xin’s eyes widened noticeably.
She quickly shifted her gaze to Feng Ning He, the two little pigtails on her head bobbing with her movement. “Pretty sister, you know my daddy’s identity?”
Rumor had it that the King of Hell was fierce and cruel, killing without batting an eye.
This also caused Si Xin Xin to worry.
She was afraid that the pretty sister would become scared because of this. She was still hoping that the pretty sister would become her mother!
Feng Ning He nodded without hesitation. “Yes, I know your father’s identity.”
The notorious King of Hell’s reputation spread far and wide; it was hard not to know.
