Chapter 36: To Be Rejected



Imperial City, Fengyi Palace.

Feng Yu was wearing a purple robe with golden dragon patterns, which should have made him look majestic, but at this moment, he was clinging to the window and peeking through the crack with one eye closed.

But before I could see clearly what was going on, I heard the sound of a door opening next to me.

Feng Yu immediately stopped, coughed twice, put one hand behind his back, raised his right hand to touch the window frame, knocked on the window, and muttered to himself: "This window should be replaced, the paint is peeling."

"Your Majesty, eavesdropping and peeping are not the behavior of a gentleman."

A clear voice sounded, with a hint of coldness.

Feng Yu turned around with a wry smile, patted his head, and called out softly, "Ning An."

All the palace maids were sent away, and Feng Yu did not want to lose his imperial dignity in front of everyone.

Everyone said that your dignity is long gone.

There were only two people left in the yard. Feng Yu no longer pretended to be polite and rushed over to hug Zhou Ning'an, his voice full of resentment and grievance: "Ning'an, it's been four or five days, are you still angry with me?"

The woman he was hugging was tall and slender. She was wearing a red double-breasted skirt with a neckline and cuffs embroidered with flower patterns in gold and silver thread.

A pair of peach blossom eyes, with slightly upturned eye corners, long curled eyelashes, slightly furrowed eyebrows, a straight nose, and smooth undulating lips, which are slightly pouting at this moment, showing the owner's displeasure.

Zhou Ning'an pushed Feng Yu, but someone was holding him too tightly and he couldn't push him away.

"Hua Xu is only four years old, and you took her horseback riding. It would have been fine if you just wanted to have fun, but you actually didn't take your daughter's safety seriously." Zhou Ning'an let him hold her and began to accuse him.

Seeing that she was finally willing to pay attention to him, Feng Yu quickly admitted his mistake again: "Ning An, I was wrong. Liefeng is always gentle. I just wanted to take her for a ride. Who knew that she would be thrown off the track when she got unstable."

He lowered his eyes in grievance, "From now on, without your consent, I will never take Hua Xu out to play without permission. Don't be angry, okay?"

Zhou Ning'an sighed, but didn't want to forgive him just like that.

Hua Xu cried the whole day.

It made her feel so sad.

He must be taught a lesson. He is already a father, yet he is still so reckless.

She was about to speak when she was interrupted by Feng Yu.

He rolled his eyes and decided to betray his best friend for the time being.

I won't say anything. I'm sorry.

This matter is urgent, so I need you to help out first.

Feng Yu said seriously, "Ning An, I have something to report."

"What's the matter?" Zhou Ning'an was a little impatient and wanted to hear what he was going to say to change the subject.

Feng Yu was very serious, "It's a lifelong matter that cannot be discussed."

"What?" Zhou Ning'an paused and looked at him, "Whose life event are you talking about?"

Seeing that the man was willing to look him in the eye, Feng Yu quickly hugged him tighter and said with a smile, "Bu Yan, let me tell you, he seems to be in trouble."

Zhou Ning'an became interested and asked, "Whose family is she from? How old is she? Is she married?"

Feng Yu couldn't help laughing. They were indeed husband and wife, even the questions they asked were the same.

"Hurry up and tell me." Zhou Ning'an punched him in dissatisfaction.

Feng Yu pretended to cry out in pain, and while recounting how Zhou Jing'an had saved the girl from the Jiang family twice, he coaxed people into the pavilion.

"......You didn't see Buyan's expression at that time. He was smiling with a look of amorous feelings on his face." Feng Yu added fuel to the fire seriously.

Seeing Zhou Ning'an asking him excitedly, the smile in his eyes became even wider, and he pulled him closer to his arms.

He had already held the dazed woman in his arms and sat her on his lap while he was telling her a story.

Finally hugging the person he had been thinking about for several days, Feng Yu was in high spirits. He buried his head in her neck and responded to her words.

Zhou Ning'an also naturally put his hand on his shoulder, "According to you, Bu Yan has feelings for Miss Jiang?"

"Of course, this is the first time I've seen Buyan show that expression."

Feng Yu's breath was blowing on Zhou Ning'an's neck, which made her tremble. She suddenly realized why she was sitting in his arms.

"You!" Zhou Ning'an pushed him and was about to stand up. How could Feng Yu give her this opportunity? She pouted in grievance, "Ning'an, I haven't spoken to you like this in several days."

The dog's eyes were fixed on her without blinking, and they were full of disappointment and grievance, so bright that it made people feel soft-hearted.

Zhou Ning'an sighed, feeling that he was really captivated by his appearance.

She climbed onto his shoulders and said, "Forget it. Don't make me angry again, or I will take Hua Xu back to my parents' home."

Feng Yu panicked when he heard this and repeatedly assured her that he would never do anything to make her angry or sad again.

Seeing how nervous and anxious he was, Zhou Ning'an chuckled, "Okay, tell me more about Bu Yan and Miss Jiang."

"I'm not really sure either. Since Bu Yan denied it flatly, I couldn't find out." Feng Yu explained everything he could.

"Have you ever seen that girl? What does she look like?"

Feng Yu shook his head, "No."

Zhou Ning'an pondered for a moment, then suddenly his eyes lit up and he had an idea. "Then I'll hold a tea banquet in a few days and invite the young ladies from all the mansions. It would be a good opportunity to see her."

Feng Yu responded with a smile: "Good idea, Ning An is very smart."

He hugged his beloved wife, and gradually began to have evil thoughts. He called her in a soft voice: "Ning An, I miss you so much..."

Zhou Ning'an knew exactly what he meant. Her pretty face flushed, and she grabbed his dishonest hand and whispered, "Go back to the bedroom."

Feng Yu smiled loudly and picked her up horizontally, "I will obey the imperial decree."

-

Tianxiang Tower.

After Jiang Ling finished ordering the dishes, she instructed Zizhen, "Go to the horse farm to find Zhou Jing'an and tell him that I'm hosting a banquet at Tianxiang Tower to thank him for saving my life."

Then he specifically instructed, "Remember, there's no need to avoid others. Just state my name openly."

Zizhen replied, "Oh, I'll remember that."

Jiang Ling took two sips of tea and instructed Lu Zhu, "Is Qianfangzhai nearby? Go buy me some chestnut cakes and send them to Xiao Anan and Wanying."

"Hey, I'll go right away." After receiving the order, Lu Zhu also went out.

Hu Hu didn't understand Jiang Ling's operation, "Host, aren't you going to find Zhou Jing'an? Why don't you go directly to the horse farm?"

Jiang Ling said calmly, "Isn't it time for lunch? It would be nice to have a meal here."

"Oh, I see." Fox sat down cross-legged on the table and asked, "Host, are you sure the male protagonist will come?"

It would probably be taboo for a single man and a single woman to have dinner together in this era.

Jiang Ling shook his head and said calmly and firmly: "He won't come to the banquet."

Fox Fox:?

"Then why invite him to dinner?"

Just to be rejected?

Jiang Ling smiled at Hu Hu's odd look and rubbed his head: "You guessed right, it's just to be rejected."

Foxy was puzzled.

After a while, Zizhen came back, but she looked unhappy and said cautiously: "Miss, Master Zhou said you don't have to be polite, so you don't have to eat."
