Hua Yan added, "Cousin, believe me, I already have someone I like."
"You have someone you like?" Feng Guang immediately thought of Ling Jiusheng, the male lead of the book. The only one who could win the female lead's heart is the male lead, right?
Hua Yan smiled and took out a dried flower from her purse. She said, "Although that person is just a gardener in the manor, and I have only met him twice, I know that I have already fallen for him."
"A gardener?" Feng Guang frowned. "What gardener? And where did you meet this gardener?"
"Not long ago, I first met him at sunset. He helped me keep a dying orchid alive. The second time we met, also at sunset, he gave me an iris..." Hua Yan lowered her head and smiled. This shy and speechless state was the appearance of someone who had fallen in love.
Feng Guang was a little confused by Hua Yan's state. Hua Yan was the female lead, and she was supposed to like a cool, domineering male lead! How did she end up liking a gardener?!
etc……
Suddenly remembering something, Fengguang asked again, "What's the name of the gardener you like?"
He said he was the ninth child in his family, so he was called Ah Jiu.
Feng Guang's expression changed. Without saying a word, she turned and ran back, quickly leaving Hua Yan, who was still confused about the situation, behind.
She was in a hurry, and as she was about to run across a long corridor, a hand grabbed her wrist. She was startled, and when she looked up, she saw a familiar face.
Qi Chang'an chuckled, "Running so fast, you'd better be careful not to fall."
"Qi Chang'an!" Before Feng Guang could argue with him, she grabbed his hand and said, "I have something important to tell you!"
"What is it?" Qi Chang'an was naturally curious. She rarely called him by his full name, which showed that she was really anxious.
Feng Guang said anxiously, "I suspect that the leader of the Demonic Sect has infiltrated our Hidden Army Mansion."
"The leader of the Demonic Cult?" Qi Chang'an knew that although Feng Guang had a bad temper, she wouldn't treat such a thing as a prank. Seeing that she was still breathing heavily because she had run too fast, he patted her back tenderly. "Don't rush, speak slowly, I'm here for you."
Perhaps Qi Chang'an's words had an effect, Feng Guang's previously impatient mood gradually calmed down, but she still looked up at him nervously, "Hua Yan said he met a gardener named A Jiu, but our Hidden Army Mansion only has Uncle Lu and Xiao Guo as gardeners, and isn't the leader of the Demonic Sect named Ling Jiusheng? He must have infiltrated."
"Alright, Fengguang, calm down first." Qi Chang'an patted her head again. He didn't doubt her words. He wasn't in a hurry to verify whether Ling Jiusheng had infiltrated the Hidden Military Headquarters. The most important thing now was to soothe her emotions. "In the Hidden Military Headquarters, we outnumber him. If Ling Jiusheng dares to come, he won't dare to act rashly. Fengguang only said she suspected something. Maybe one day Uncle Lu won't be able to come, so he'll find other gardeners to help him. Shall we go ask Uncle Lu first?"
As expected of someone who has been the leader of the martial arts alliance for so many years, he can always think rationally, no matter the situation.
Feng Guang's only thought now is that if Ling Jiusheng comes, her family may be in danger. After all, in the original story, Ling Jiusheng slaughtered her entire family. With the enemy in the shadows, it's understandable that Feng Guang feels lost and helpless at this moment.
