At this time, Feng Zhiyi, who was in the house, heard footsteps outside and subconsciously turned his head to look at the door.
In an instant—
Their eyes met.
A fleeting look of astonishment crossed Feng Zhiyi's eyes.
As expected of a big shot, his deep, narrow phoenix eyes exuded sharpness.
Like a bottomless ocean, it is so deep that one dares not look directly at it.
At the same time, she also saw the man's appearance clearly. He had delicate features and smooth facial contours, as if he had been carefully painted by an artist, without the slightest flaw.
As the man stepped into the room, his handsome face became increasingly clear. He was dressed in a military uniform, which made him look noble and aloof. He seemed to be out of place in this woodshed, yet he gave off an oppressive feeling that could not be ignored.
Feng Zhiyi calmly observed the other person without changing her expression, her gaze unwavering. Her poised and confident demeanor caused a flicker of surprise to cross Lu Lingxiao's deep eyes before returning to calm.
Lu Lingxiao's lips curled into a hint of interest. This girl seemed to be somewhat different from the situation his mother had described!
According to his mother, although Feng Zhiyi also has the surname Feng, she is not related to the Feng family by blood, and her situation in the Feng family is not very good.
She is a hardworking, sensible, and kind girl, but she is a bit weak-willed.
But the girl in front of him had no trace of weakness or timidity in her clear almond-shaped eyes. Instead, they were bright and spirited, and she even dared to look him in the eye!
And, under his probing gaze, she was actually sizing him up as well.
Lu Lingxiao walked forward step by step without making a sound, until he stopped in front of Feng Zhiyi.
His gaze fell on that delicate and tender little face. His thin lips parted slightly, and a cold voice rang out, "Yesterday, your grandma came to my house and told us that you were willing to marry your eldest sister, and they didn't force you to marry me. Is this true?"
The first thing the man said when he came in wasn't "I've come to pick you up!" But he asked Feng Zhiyi if she really agreed to the exchange marriage willingly, as Old Madam Feng had said, or if she was forced to agree by her family.
“It’s true!”
A moment of surprise flashed across Feng Zhiyi's exquisite and perfect face before she quickly regained her composure and nodded slightly.
Suddenly, a faint curve appeared at the corner of her mouth, and then she asked him in a slightly playful tone, "You ask me this, don't you think I'm not as pretty as my stepsister and don't want to marry me?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Lingxiao's lips twitched slightly. He hadn't expected her to ask him the same question. What surprised him even more was how insecure she was about her own appearance that she thought she wasn't as pretty as her stepsister.
etc......
Lu Lingxiao suddenly realized that, even now, he didn't seem to remember what Feng Qiulan looked like.
If his father had not accidentally sprained his ankle while collecting herbs in the mountains a few years ago, and happened to meet the old man of the Feng family and was rescued by him, and if the old man Feng had not learned that his father's son was a soldier, he would have taken advantage of this life-saving favor to propose the idea of marrying into the Lu family.
Lu Lingxiao would never agree to this marriage.
Moreover, although his marriage to Feng Qiulan had been arranged for several years, he only met Feng Qiulan in person for the first time last week when the elders of both families were discussing the wedding date.
But I only glanced at it casually and didn't pay any more attention to it.
so--
Throughout the entire ordeal, Lu Lingxiao had absolutely no memory of Feng Qiulan, let alone what she looked like...
Lu Lingxiao concealed the emotions in his eyes and then explained to Feng Zhiyi, "You misunderstood. I was afraid you would regret it. After all, you are still young. If you are not willing to marry, I can tell your family to cancel the marriage between our two families."
So, you don't need to wrong yourself.
However--
What Lu Lingxiao never expected was that this girl suddenly asked, "Small? How is it small?"
Lu Lingxiao was momentarily stunned.
Unexpectedly, he heard Feng Zhiyi add cheerfully, "Besides, didn't you just say I was still young? So, I will continue to grow in the future!"
Although she is indeed a little thinner, she has everything she needs.
There is nothing to say about her appearance.
The original owner looked exactly like her mother Lan Guixiang, with a pair of beautiful almond-shaped eyes, black and bright, and skin as white as snow. She was a typical beauty!
Feng Qiuyue's appearance, however, resembled that of her father, Feng Zhiqiang, and was quite ordinary.
That's why Feng Qiuyue and Feng Qiulan have always disliked the original Feng Zhiyi; Feng Zhiyi was just too beautiful, which made them extremely jealous.
Lu Lingxiao's eyes flickered slightly, and he thought to himself: What did she just say "long?" What is it...long?
Lu Lingxiao looked down at that bright smile, his heart suddenly struck by something, but his voice was very serious, "I am a soldier, military marriage cannot be divorced. Once you marry me, there will be no room for regret!"
"So, you really need to think this through..."
"Just tell me, will you marry me or not?" Feng Zhiyi interrupted him directly.
She looked at Lu Lingxiao with a firm and serious gaze, "I am confident that I can be a good military wife, and I believe that I will be a virtuous wife and loving mother! Although we don't have feelings for each other now, it doesn't matter. Feelings can be cultivated slowly after marriage!"
"As long as we support and trust each other, how can we not manage our little family well?"
Anyway, she can't go back to her original world, and it's impossible for her to stay in the Feng family. In this case, she might as well marry Lu Lingxiao and live a good life with him!
Putting everything else aside, Lu Lingxiao's looks alone have completely captured her heart!
For her, who is obsessed with looks, Lu Lingxiao is the clear winner in terms of appearance alone.
Moreover, she had a good impression of him, and he was also a soldier.
Can the people trained by the army be bad?
So, only a fool would turn down such a good man.
Oh, don't mention it, there really is a fool...
Perhaps it was the word "family," or perhaps it was Feng Zhiyi's sincere and firm words, that suddenly and gradually penetrated into Lu Lingxiao's heart, melting his heart, which was like an ice sculpture.
His Adam's apple bobbed, then he straightened up, reached out to Feng Zhiyi, and although his tone was still somewhat stiff, it was noticeably gentler than before.
"Let's go, let's go home!"
After saying that, he picked Feng Zhiyi up in his arms.
Then they walked outside.
The steps are steady and the embrace is stable.
