Thinking this, she didn't show it, but instead asked, "Are you sure you had sex with him?"
Feng Xin's face flushed, and she stammered, "There's blood on the blanket..."
Rong Qingqing rubbed her forehead, "Besides this, don't you have any recollection of it at all?"
"No," Feng Xin shook her head and said with certainty, "I have absolutely no recollection of it."
Rong Qingqing found it strange. Even if she was drunk and confused, she shouldn't have no memory of what happened last night. This meant that the events of last night were not what she thought, and it was very likely that nothing had happened between her and Li Mu.
Thinking of this, she asked, "Have you started your period yet?"
Feng Xin was stunned for a moment, "My period is always unpredictable, sometimes it comes early, sometimes it comes late, but it came today..."
Upon hearing this, Rong Qingqing's lips twitched slightly. "They probably didn't come today. It's very likely they came last night." As she spoke, she breathed a sigh of relief for her.
It was probably because her period was suddenly approaching that her chastity was preserved.
If her period hadn't suddenly arrived, perhaps she would have already lost her innocence last night.
What a silly girl, so incredibly foolish.
Feng Xin was stunned. "You mean, the blood on the blanket wasn't mine... but my menstrual blood?"
"Hmm." Rong Qingqing nodded, then said jokingly, "Congratulations, you've preserved your chastity."
Nothing happened, and Feng Xin should have been happy, but she felt a little disappointed instead.
It seems that even if something really happened between her and Li Mu, she wouldn't care much.
Why would she have such a thought?
She felt that she was quite ill.
Thinking of this, she frowned and forced a smile.
Rong Qingqing saw her reaction and couldn't help but sigh in her heart, but she didn't say anything. She only reminded her, "You've reached the age. A few days ago, the Emperor Emeritus asked the Emperor to help you find a suitable husband. Perhaps soon, he will issue an imperial decree to grant you a marriage."
"What?" Feng Xin had clearly not considered this question, and stared blankly at her upon hearing it.
Rong Qingqing said with amusement, "What's wrong? Do you want to never find a husband for the rest of your life?"
Feng Xin said dejectedly, "I didn't expect it to be so fast..."
"You should be prepared that when your princess residence is completed, you will probably be married off. Your consort will likely be chosen from among the sons of various aristocratic families," Rong Qingqing continued.
Upon hearing this, Feng Xin's heart sank, and she felt somewhat lost and helpless.
She had known for a long time that this day would come, but when it actually arrived, she felt lost and helpless.
She should actually be grateful to her father and brothers for not letting her marry into a foreign land for political reasons, but after what happened last night, she felt even more resistant to the idea of selecting a consort.
"Don't overthink it. Nothing happened between you and Li Mu. You can forget about it and focus on getting married," Rong Qingqing comforted her. "The Emperor's choice of a consort for you will also be reviewed by the Emperor Emeritus, so you don't need to worry. Your future consort will definitely be excellent."
Feng Xin forced a smile that looked more like a grimace, "Sister-in-law, I don't want to find a husband..."
Rong Qingqing paused for a moment, then asked, "Why? Is it because of Li Mu?"
Feng Xin paused for a moment, then shook her head, "That's not true..."
“If not, why don’t you want to find a consort?” Rong Qingqing raised an eyebrow.
Feng Xin paused for a moment, then couldn't help but say, "I know all the young masters from prominent families in the capital, but I don't like any of them."
