"Sister, let me, your older brother, have a look at you."

Lu Nian walked to Feng Ling Xi's face, looking at the slender Feng Ling Xi, his eyes turned red. This five years must have been very difficult for his sister, right Although her appearance had matured a lot, her beauty was still breathtaking. However, there was an indescribable sadness between her brows, which made him feel heartbroken just by looking at it.

"I'm doing well, thank you, Brother Lu."

Feng Lingxi shouted, looking at Lu Nian's eyes filled with distress, she turned in a circle.

"I'm really doing fine, nothing much has changed."

"I've lost weight."

As soon as Lu Nian spoke, Feng Lingxi's smile widened. "But I've also become prettier," she said. "Besides, what woman would let herself get chubby At least I wouldn't." She might not need a man, but she couldn't let herself become a plump woman. It was uncomfortable and inconvenient.

Lü Nian stepped forward and took a good look at Feng Lingxi, taking a deep breath.

"Tell me about how you've been these past five years, and also, who are you"

Lu Nian pointed at Tao Su standing with Lu Hao. Hearing Lu Nian's question, Tao Su was also quite surprised. Just as he was about to speak, Feng Lingxi introduced herself to Lu Nian.

"He's Tao Su, a friend I met when I went down the mountain. He's been very kind to me."

Tao Su bowed, "Greetings, Master Lu."

Lu Nian nodded, but his eyes were not very friendly. After all, he had not agreed to let Xi'er be with him. This younger sister belonged to Dugu City. He had promised Dugu City that he would take good care of his sister. If he let this boy get ahead now, how could he explain himself to Dugu City

Tao Su felt Lu Nian's unfriendly gaze, but he didn't react much. Being misunderstood wasn't a new thing for him, and besides, being able to be friends with Xiao Feng was already a stroke of luck and blessing in his life. He didn't dare think about anything else.

"Little sister, big brother heard about what happened from our parents. But you're still a daughter of the family, don't get too close to men."

"Lu Ge, you're overthinking things." Feng Lingxi looked at Tao Su. "Tao Su and I aren't the kind of relationship you think we are. We're friends, and besides, be a little kinder to him." Feng Lingxi's words made Lu Nian feel even more crisis. No, he had to inform Dugu Cheng. He couldn't let his sister run off with someone else later on.

Tao Su nodded in agreement, "Xiao Feng and I are friends. Young Master Lu can rest assured, Tao Su knows his place and would never overstep."

"Brother Lu."

Feng Lingxi saw Tao Su's embarrassed expression and hurriedly spoke to stop him. Tao Su smiled at Feng Lingxi, "It's fine, sometimes it's good to say things out loud so everyone feels more comfortable, besides, your brother just cares about you, I understand."

Lu Nian hadn't had a particularly good impression of Tao Su before, but hearing his words now, she felt quite comfortable. It was enough that he understood, so there was no need for her to explain further. After all, her sister was a married woman, and it wasn't appropriate for her to be too close to an unmarried man.

"Just ignore him, that's just how he is."

Lu Hao spoke first, warning them. Lu Nian wanted to speak, but when she met her father's warning gaze, she had no choice but to shut up.

Feng Lingxi looked at Lu Nian, "You just said you had something to ask me, didn't you Let's go outside and talk."

After glancing at Wan'er, she saw that she was engrossed in conversation with the elderly Madam and Grand Tutor, while Lady Lu was also there with them, completely absorbed. Feng Lingxi knew that Lu Nian had many things to tell her, so when they were finished talking, it would be almost time for her to take Wan'er away.

"Mr. Tao, let's talk here."

Lu Hao took Tao Su over there to drink tea. Tao Su nodded at Lu Nian and, seeing them walk away, went over to Lu Hao.

"Lu Nian, did she know that Wan'er is coming with you this time"

Feng Lingxi was straightforward. Seeing Lu Nian staring at her, Feng Lingxi instinctively touched her face. She had taken good care of herself over the years, and at over twenty, she was in her prime. She wouldn't tell him that having three children made her old, would she

"Do you hate him"

Lu Nian's expression became serious, and when he asked Feng Lingxi, his eyes were fixed on hers.

"Not hating, it's normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, let alone he is a prince. A man like him, how could he possibly only marry one wife in his lifetime But I will not give in either. I have my principles. He can betray me and take another woman, but I will not be like other women, sharing a husband."

Feng Ling's tone was very flat. That was simply her thought.

Du Gu Cheng can marry someone else, but the prerequisite is that they must be divorced. Moreover, she won't hate him. For a man who doesn't love her, it's not worth hating him and living in hatred. She just wants to live a good life.

"Have you ever truly loved him"

Lu Nian, listening to her words, truly doubted if his younger sister had ever genuinely fallen for Dugu City. If this were any other woman, could she be so rational

"If one has never loved, how could they give birth to a child"

Feng Lingxi looked at Lu Nian, her eyes slightly cold. "Are you here to intercede for him, or to investigate me"

"I didn't mean that. There are some things I've never been able to figure out. You're my sister, of course I'm on your side."

Lu Nian feared that Feng Lingxi wouldn't believe her, so she raised her hand and swore to the heavens, "Everything I said is true. It's your carefree nature that makes you seem unlike a normal woman. Your husband has found someone new, and you simply divorced him, handing over the position of princess without any hesitation. You didn't even make a fuss like other women who would cry, throw a tantrum, or attempt suicide."

"If his heart is no longer with you, who are you crying for Who are you making a fuss for Who are you hanging yourself for" Feng Lingxi sneered, her teeth cold. "Am I living just for a man"

Her life is hard enough as it is, how could she possibly throw it all away for a man, especially one who doesn't even love her

Hearing her sister's words, Lu Nian thought of Dugu Cheng turning his hair white for her and his liver qi being stagnant. She felt very uncomfortable, but right now, if she said anything, her sister wouldn't listen and would think he was speaking up for Dugu Cheng.

"Hearing you say that, big brother's heart is finally at ease. Where have you been all these years Why didn't you leave any word Didn't you know how worried father and mother have been about you all these years"

As soon as Lu Nian thought about how hard he'd been searching for her all these years, his heart ached. He was so distraught that he almost hated himself for not being able to find her.

Seeing Lu Nian like this, Feng Lingxi's face softened considerably. She spoke softly and gently.

“Back then, Li Wuyan brought me to the junction of the Aoxiang Dynasty and Xigu Kingdom. I didn't want to go to Aoxiang Dynasty to look for Huangfu Qingyun, so I decided to head towards Xigu Kingdom. Later, I met my master there, and we both went into seclusion in the mountains to improve my medical skills.”

"Have you become your master's disciple"

Lu Nian's face was full of surprise. Could it be that they hadn't found her sister back then because of her master

Feng Lingxi nodded, “Well, Master was very kind to me. He took me back to the mountains, and only recently came down.”ted and eaten."Are you sure such a large rabbit is suitable for keeping indoors and won't run away"獨孤城看著兮兒充滿食慾的眼神，有些哭笑不得，他當時買的時候根本冇想過這些，可是如今看著這體型肥胖的兔子，這好像養也不太適合。"Mother, the rabbit might have more bab...
