After passing through a courtyard, we arrived at a rather secluded pavilion. There was a pine tree on the pavilion, and Huan'er was lying on the table below.
Feng Guang didn't see the man in black. She went straight to Huan'er's side and shook her shoulder. "Huan'er? What's wrong?"
After a while, Huan'er yawned and opened her eyes. When she saw that it was her older sister, she immediately smiled and said, "Sister, the pastries here are so delicious!"
It turned out that Huan'er was just asleep.
Upon seeing the plates of pastries on the stone table, Feng Guang's temper flared immediately. "Didn't I tell you not to go with strangers? What, someone gave you some food, and you've completely forgotten what I always tell you!"
"I...I didn't..." Huan'er saw Feng Guang's anger for the first time, her little mouth trembled, and she burst into tears.
Feng Guang hardened his heart and refused to hug her. "If you run into some bad person and go with him, your parents and I won't be able to find you. Do you know what will become of you?"
"I'll...I'll be grabbed, have my arms and legs broken, and be forced to beg..."
"I'm so glad you still remember!" Feng Guang said, "It's good that I found you this time. If you run away with someone else next time, I can't guarantee that I can find you again. I'll just go and take another girl from another family to be the young lady of the Xie family. You won't be allowed to come back even if you want to."
"Sister! No!" Huan'er cried out in fright, reaching out to hug Fengguang's neck. "I won't go with strangers, don't leave me!"
Even the stern-faced Feng Guang softened. She picked up Huan'er, patted her head, and said, "Alright, don't cry. Huan'er won't go with strangers, so how could your sister abandon Huan'er?"
"Hmm..." Huan'er hiccuped as she cried, unable to stop.
Feng Guang, with her sharp eyes, noticed a piece of white paper with writing on it under a plate. She first put Huan'er down, then picked up the paper. It read:
Between your child and your husband, what would you choose?
After a moment of glory, she was unsure whether someone had deliberately left this piece of paper for her, since she had no husband and no children... Perhaps, this piece of paper was just a prank by the person who brought Huan'er out.
"Sister..." Huan'er pitifully tugged at Feng Guang's clothes.
Feng Guang immediately crumpled the paper into a ball, intending to throw it away, but after thinking about it, she put it in her purse close to her body. She picked up Huan'er and said, "Mother is still waiting for us. Let's go back quickly."
"Mmm..." Huan'er was like a frightened bird, afraid that Fengguang would say he didn't want her anymore.
On the way back, Feng Guang bumped into Xie Yaoyao. She only had time to see a glimpse of a blue dress disappear around the corner. When Xie Yaoyao turned around and saw Feng Guang, she was surprised for a moment, but she quickly regained her composure.
"Go ahead and act, Fengguang," she thought. Did she not know that the person who had just been talking to Xie Yaoyao was Luo Yuanzhi? But she didn't intend to expose Xie Yaoyao's acting skills yet. She just said as they brushed past each other, "Your second aunt and the others are looking for you. You should go back quickly."
Feng Guang reminded Xie Yaoyao that her attitude was neither friendly nor arrogant, but to those who were interested, it was interpreted differently.
A pebble flew out of nowhere and headed straight for Fengguang's knee, but then a bamboo leaf flew by and made the pebble fall to the ground.
This little incident is something that those who are not skilled in martial arts would naturally not notice.
