The lark looked up blankly, "Princess?"
"Shut up!" Feng Guang glared at Yun Que. "I'm not talking to you, I'm asking Su Fa."
Upon hearing this, Su Fa smiled slightly and asked, "Why would Feng Guang say that? Did Yun Que say something?"
Upon hearing the last sentence, Yun Que's face immediately turned pale.
Feng Guang shook her head. "She didn't say anything, but she always talked about how good you were to me. Tell me, if she wasn't interested in you, why would she keep saying that?"
"I see." Su Fa took Feng Guang's hand, smiled slightly, and said softly, "I have always been very good to Feng Guang, which is something everyone knows."
"But she's my personal maid, she came to Weiming Residence with me, and Yun Que is quite pretty. During the days I was unconscious, didn't you ever have the urge to have a passionate affair with her?"
“Dry wood needs to meet a raging fire to become unstoppable. I am not dry wood, and the lark is not a raging fire. How could I be entangled with her?” A faint smile appeared on his lips, as gentle as the wind. “My heart is only for the scenery. Other women naturally cannot catch my eye.”
Feng Guang asked doubtfully, "Really?"
"Of course it's true. No matter how long my life is, I only need Fengguang." He smiled slightly, and his eyes were filled with deep affection and seriousness, like a whirlpool that could easily draw people in.
She couldn't help but laugh. "Okay, I'll trust you this once."
The sweetness in her smile almost fooled even herself.
"Is Feng Guang no longer jealous?"
"I'm not jealous at all!" Feng Guang snorted a few times, then pointed at Yun Que kneeling on the ground and said, "Although you and she are nothing, I'm afraid she might have something going on with you. Today I have to send her back to the Heavenly Palace. I don't want to see her in Weiming Residence."
Sufa smiled indulgently and said, "Fengguang can do whatever he wants with it."
"Princess!" Lark cried out, his eyes filled with fear.
Feng Guang looked at her for a while, then said, "You should go back to the Heavenly Palace first and learn properly from the maids around my mother. When my mother says you are qualified, you can come back."
Yun Que couldn't possibly misunderstand the meaning behind her words; sending her to the Empress's side was tantamount to preventing Su Fa from doing anything to her.
“Yes…Princess.” Hibari bowed his head respectfully and said.
Feng Guang said impatiently, "Alright, you can leave now."
"This servant takes her leave." Yun Que glanced at Su Fa again, but Su Fa did not look at her. She lowered her head and left quickly.
Feng Guang let out a sigh of relief. "I feel so much more relaxed now that she's gone."
"As long as Fengguang is happy." Sufa pulled her into his arms and kissed the top of her head, saying, "Even without Yun Que, I can take good care of you."
"Then this princess is counting on you."
Sufa smiled and said, "I will certainly not disappoint Your Highness."
The banter between the couple seems even sweeter when it comes to this handsome young man and beautiful woman.
However, it's only superficially similar.
As night fell, the tightly closed door opened.
Wearing a coat, Feng Guang carefully walked out of the room and closed the door behind her. She moved very quietly because she didn't want to wake the person who was still sleeping inside. She had made quite a few sacrifices tonight to help Su Fa sleep more soundly... cough, that's not something she can tell outsiders.
The path to the other unnamed residence was in the kitchen. As Hibari had said, stepping on the moonlit floor, one side of the kitchen wall opened up, revealing a staircase leading down.
Feng Guang walked in without hesitation. Before long, she found herself back in the kitchen, no... another kitchen in Weiming Residence. Her intuition told her that she could go and check out their bedroom.
The two unnamed residences had the same layout, so she quickly walked to the room that was equivalent to her bedroom. Feng Guang hesitated for a moment this time, but still pushed the door open and went in.
This bedroom was much larger than the one on the ground floor. The room was filled with luminous pearls that served as candlelight, the fragrance of flowers, and even more than a dozen beds covered with fresh flowers... The light from the luminous pearls allowed her to see the scene before her clearly.
On each flower bed lay a person, or rather... a person with the same face, a face identical to Feng Guang's, their serene expressions as if they were asleep.
Feng Guang was speechless with shock and horrified. She walked to a bed and tremblingly reached out her hand. The person on the bed was not breathing. Naturally, she was not breathing either, because her lips were bluish-black, indicating that she had died of poisoning. Out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly caught sight of another woman lying on the bed next to her, who looked exactly like her. On her neck... there was a wound.
Fengguang slowly placed her hand on her neck... Her heart pounded, and she felt... she suddenly understood something.
Chapter 677: Conquering the Heavenly Schoolteacher
She didn't want to believe the answer...
His blank gaze suddenly shifted, and Feng Guang, as if possessed, began to examine the condition of each woman lying on the bed. Without exception, they were not breathing. Some had died from poisoning, some had sharp blades piercing their chests, and naturally, some had... committed suicide.
There are thirteen corpses here, all of them looking exactly like her...
She lost all strength and slowly sat down on the ground, her eyes filled with deep despair. Thinking about it from another perspective, hadn't she always wanted to know how many times she had lost her memory? Now, she didn't need to guess anymore; the number of corpses here directly told her the answer. But she couldn't be optimistic; she only felt despair now.
She didn't know how many times she had chosen to kill herself, but she was certain that no matter how many times she died or how she died, he always had a way to bring her back to life... Even though she didn't understand why he could give her a healthy body again, Feng Guang knew that no matter how many times she was reborn, the despair that she couldn't escape even after death filled her with fear.
However, she didn't have much time to think about this right now; she needed to find Xiaoxiao.
Thinking of Xiaoxiao, she suddenly felt motivated. She stood up from the ground, glanced again at the furnishings in the room that terrified her, and walked out without looking back.
In a dimly lit room, she saw many human pigs. This was the dark room that Yun Que had mentioned. Surprisingly, Feng Guang didn't feel anything when she saw it. Perhaps after seeing so many of her own corpses, she wouldn't feel anything no matter what more terrifying things she saw. She was only focused on one thing now, which was to find Xiao Xiao.
To Feng Guang's relief, there were no babies or little girls among these so-called human pigs. She was able to walk through these human pigs with such seriousness, something she had never imagined before.
She searched the entire nameless residence but still couldn't find any useful clues. Did that mean Xiaoxiao wasn't here? Perhaps she wasn't in the Heavenly Realm?
Feng Guang calmly analyzed the situation. Su Fa wouldn't let her die because he needed her heart. The key point was that he needed her to willingly give up her heart. There was nothing more suitable than threatening her with Xiao Xiao. So... she could think with peace of mind for the time being that Xiao Xiao was still alive because, in his eyes, Xiao Xiao still had value.
Feng Guang walked out of the nameless underground residence. Unlike the anxiety she felt when she left, she was now feeling extremely heavy-hearted. Anyone who could remain calm after knowing that they had died countless times and seeing so many corpses that looked just like themselves would probably not be a normal person.
Not a normal person? Isn't Suva a normal person?
Feng Guang knew herself well. She was very clear that even if she didn't like her husband, she would never have a child with another man during their marriage. This was her principle and code of conduct. Yun Que had also said that she was pregnant at the time, and it was indeed Su Fa's child. Xiao Xiao was her daughter, and also his daughter. How could he be so heartless as to imprison his own daughter...
Yes, he is not a normal person at all.
Feng Guang's rationality had just told her to stay calm, but now she couldn't help feeling helpless and panicked. If Su Fa were a normal person, perhaps she could still hope that after she met his demands, he would consider their father-daughter relationship and let Xiao Xiao go. But now she couldn't think that way at all. She was afraid... afraid that if she really died, Xiao Xiao wouldn't be able to live either.
