"I'm not joking." Feng Xixuan's tone remained calm, making it impossible to tell whether he was joking or serious.
Su Ziqing remained silent for three seconds before asking hesitantly, "Senior brother, are you asking for my opinion?"
Feng Xixuan hummed in agreement.
He has always treated Su Ziqing like a younger sister, but when it comes to marriage, he did consult her beforehand and would not force her.
Ultimately, everyone has a bottom line. Even the people you care about most shouldn't be forced to do something under the guise of "I'm doing this for your own good."
"I……"
“I can consider it,” Feng Xixuan said calmly. “Maybe she can still show up at the wedding.”
"Huh?" This is completely different now.
To be honest, if there were a fake wedding, and the person her senior brother had been searching for for years appeared, she might even become his sister-in-law. Su Ziqing had that kind of willingness to make sacrifices.
Anyway, if she were to marry Feng Xixuan, it would only be a rumor circulating domestically. As for whether they would actually get married, who knows?
It's also possible to change the bride on the spot at the wedding...
This can be considered killing two birds with one stone.
Since Su Ziqing had the call on speakerphone, Lu Linghong, who hadn't uttered a sound, heard it clearly and thought speechlessly, "Don't they have enough respect for marriage?"
"A kitten?" Su Ziqing asked timidly, afraid that these three words might accidentally become a taboo.
You know, in all the years she's known Feng Xixuan, he spends half his time working and the other half... searching for kittens while working.
She was very curious about what kind of girl made her senior brother so infatuated with her.
"Hmm," Feng Xixuan replied indifferently, clearly not intending to discuss further.
"Senior brother, have you found any trace of the kitten in Japan?" He's really good at hiding!
Feng Xixuan has been away from the capital for quite some time now, and Su Ziqing doesn't know if he has finished his business in the capital, let alone whether he will come back.
Anyway, she hardly ever goes back to the capital anymore.
Feng Xixuan never told her the purpose of his trip to the capital.
But she guessed it was probably also to find the kitten?
"No." Feng Xixuan's voice lowered, sounding somewhat frantic. Su Ziqing wasn't sure if she was mistaken.
"How about... I ask Mr. Sakai again?" She just didn't know if it would be of any use, or if Sakai would even tell her.
"Heh." Feng Xixuan's tone was unfriendly. "He's too busy taking care of himself right now."
Su Ziqing sensed the scent of 'revenge'.
Blinking, "Senior brother, about this..."
"To get married or not?" Feng Xixuan showed no intention of letting her skip the topic.
"You make it sound like getting married is just like having a meal." Su Ziqing was speechless; she could practically sense his perfunctory attitude.
Feng Xixuan chuckled lightly, "Could it be that you really want to marry me?"
"No, no, no, you mustn't think like that." She would never dare to even dream of such a man.
Showing mercy and tenderness to women? That's not an option.
It haunted her for life; she could never forget how 'cold-blooded' he was when he taught her self-defense.
Moreover, he is far too ignorant of her, capable of completely controlling her. A man like that, haha, do you want him?
Do you want to die?
When she first met Gong Chengjue, she felt a sense of familiarity. Then she realized, "Of course! Men are all the same when they're being bad!"
If no feelings had developed between them, Gong Chengjue's attitude towards her would have been pretty much the same, but since feelings had developed...
She must have had the worst luck imaginable! Su Ziqing finally realized why she was so angry: when Gong Chengjue threatened her just now, he acted exactly like Feng Xixuan…
Suddenly, a lightbulb went off in her head. She wondered if the kitten had said something harsh to Senior Brother Feng, since he had been avoiding her.
She suddenly felt like she had discovered the truth...
"Let me think about it." Su Ziqing bit her lip. It was too terrifying. She looked at Lu Linghong and felt that sacrificing herself was not as good as sacrificing Lu Linghong.
Ugh, she can't be so selfish.
"Keep the child." Feng Xixuan only said these four words.
Su Ziqing was startled. If she wasn't sure that Feng Xixuan wasn't around at the moment, she would have thought that she had been seen through.
Yes, she wavered.
“No matter what Gong Chengjue said, ignore him,” Feng Xixuan said softly. “If you want, the child can take my surname, Feng, and can grow up abroad.”
“Senior brother…” Su Ziqing did not expect Feng Xixuan to be so persistent about the existence of the child. Did something happen in the past?
But to have a heart-to-heart talk with her? That's impossible. There's no one who can have a heart-to-heart talk with Feng Xixuan. Maybe that little kitten is one?
"I'll take care of Gong Chengjue for you," Feng Xixuan sneered. "I guarantee he won't have time to bother you."
"Senior brother, I..."
"Feeling sorry for her?" Feng Xixuan noticed her hesitation.
"Ignore him." Yes, she felt sorry for him. She didn't want things to develop from lovers to enemies.
"Oh, I'll listen to you." Feng Xixuan wasn't making decisions unilaterally, at least not in this matter.
After hanging up the phone, Su Ziqing had a night to think it over. She looked at Lu Linghong, a headache in her eyes, "Why did you tell Senior Brother Feng?"
"I just want to tell you that you're not alone. Senior Brother Feng and I are both behind you." He didn't want the past to repeat itself. How did Su Ziqing get involved with Gong Chengjue in the first place?
If Su Ziqing had contacted them from the beginning, Gong Chengjue wouldn't have been involved. However, because they were all abroad and believed she could handle it, they missed the opportunity to resolve the situation.
I never imagined that this silly girl would choose that way, afraid of troubling them...
Su Ziqing was moved. "I know." She knew. Although she no longer had any family, he and Feng Xixuan were her family.
But the thought of having a wedding with Feng Xixuan, even if it's fake, makes her feel like she'll have nightmares.
She shook her head decisively, "Gong Chengjue won't believe that the child is Feng Shixiong's."
When Lu Linghong heard her words, he knew that she had completely given up on marrying him. He was heartbroken, but he still tried his best to cheer up. "It doesn't have to be Senior Brother Feng's."
"Huh?" Su Ziqing blinked. "What do you mean?"
Lu Linghong coughed lightly, "You've been in contact with quite a few men these past two months."
Su Ziqing understood, "Ah...you mean, let the child remain an unknown?"
Lu Linghong nodded, "But that's a bad idea, and it's not good for your reputation either." Although people are more accepting now, if even the mother doesn't know who the father of the child is, it's as if Su Ziqing is promiscuous.
This is worse than marrying him and assuming the child is hers.
Su Ziqing looked at him and nodded. It was indeed a poor choice, but better than nothing.
