"Miss Xia, are you no longer resentful of your senior brother?" Qi Chang'an asked curiously, watching her retreating figure.
Feng Guang was silent for a while before saying, "There's nothing to complain about. He doesn't like me, and that's it. I can't force him. When it comes to feelings, it's never the case that if one person likes another, the other person has to reciprocate with the same feelings. Mutual affection is certainly good, but if you can't get what you want... then you can only say that you're just unlucky."
"So..." A hint of amusement flashed in Qi Chang'an's eyes, hidden from view, "Miss Xia doesn't resent Miss Hua Yan either?"
"Do you resent her?" Feng Guang paused involuntarily.
Qi Chang'an said slowly, "It's understandable that Miss Xia would resent Miss Hua Yan, since it was because of her that Young Master Wanxuan rejected Miss Xia's feelings."
“Resentment…maybe there is some…” Feng Guang slowly spoke. It would be impossible not to resent. She resented Hua Yan’s protagonist halo, first winning the attention of the second senior brother, and then winning the favor of the eldest senior brother. She also hated that just when she realized that she liked Wan Xuan, Wan Xuan had already fallen in love with someone else.
But she also knew very well that Hua Yan, apart from radiating the heroine's aura at certain times, did not use any schemes or plots like those scheming women.
However, few people can think rationally when faced with relationship setbacks.
Qi Chang'an said gently, "I can understand why Miss Xia resents Miss Hua Yan. Miss Xia is the eldest daughter of the Hidden Army Mansion and is loved by everyone, while Miss Hua Yan... comes from an ordinary background. Whether in terms of status or position, she is not as good as Miss Xia. It is only natural for Miss Xia to feel resentful."
“I…” Feng Guang looked at the fallen leaves on the ground, clutching her skirt tightly, “I am indeed unwilling…”
In terms of beauty and family background, she was far superior to Hua Yan. However, no matter how long they had known her, everyone treated Hua Yan differently when they met her again.
Simply because Hua Yan is the female lead, while she is just a supporting character...
Qi Chang'an continued, "Perhaps, if Miss Hua Yan were no longer here, Young Master Wan Xuan might have changed his mind. Just like before Miss Hua Yan arrived, Miss Xia and Young Master Wan Xuan were a pair of very close senior and junior disciples. If their relationship had deepened a little more, then becoming husband and wife wouldn't have been impossible. Alas, what a pity..."
Qi Chang'an shook his head and sighed, "I was only talking about the possibility when Miss Hua Yan didn't appear. Since Miss Hua Yan is staying safely in the Hidden Army Mansion, how can we let her disappear?"
Yes, that is indeed a difficult thing.
But it's not difficult. As long as Fengguang... can take advantage of his status to make Huayan disappear from this world.
A girl's clear voice echoed from the woods, "I don't want her to disappear."
Qi Chang'an paused slightly, then asked with a smile, "Why?"
“If it weren’t for Hua Yan, my senior brother and I would have really been together… I would never have known that he would fall in love with other women…” Feng Guang rested her head on her knees, picked up a fallen leaf from the ground, and unconsciously tore it into pieces little by little, saying calmly, “I don’t care for a man who can change his mind so easily.”
A rare look of confusion appeared in Qi Chang'an's eyes, but it seemed like a mere illusion. "Miss Xia, didn't you like Young Master Wanxuan very much? Why are you giving up so easily?"
