As if she had already guessed the outcome, Lihua showed no sign of sadness at being rejected.
Feng Che paused. Although he had lived for so long, he had no experience in matters of the heart and did not understand the thoughts of these girls. He looked at Ji Jiuying with pleading eyes.
Ji Jiuying couldn't help but chuckle. Lihua looked up at her and said, seemingly understanding but not quite, "I know, it must be because you already have a beauty by your side that you rejected me."
Feng Che; "..."
puff--
Ji Jiuying couldn't help but laugh. "Miss Lihua, he is my second uncle. Although he is not married yet, he already has someone he likes, and you have even met her."
Ji Jiuying thought to herself, "It seems that if I want my aunt, I'll have to ask her. Sister Feng, this is all I can do for you."
Feng Che: "..."
He has someone he likes? How come he doesn't know? Li Hua has met him before, which means she was one of the people present. He didn't have time to think about the look Ji Jiu Ying gave him, so he could only nod reluctantly.
Feng Qingxue, still reeling from Feng Che's rejection of Li Hua, froze in place upon hearing Ji Jiuying's words.
Li Hua has seen her before... Could it be her? Feng Qingxue felt nervous and uneasy, her hands unconsciously clenching her sleeves.
"Huh? Who is it?"
Lihua looked depressed.
Ji Jiuying glanced at Feng Che out of the corner of her eye and said with a smile, "She's the woman in blue who came with us just now."
Feng Che was stunned. The woman in green, besides Feng Qingxue, could be someone else?
Upon hearing this, the people in the space kept glancing at Feng Qingxue. They couldn't believe it; it turned out that Second Master Feng liked Feng Qingxue.
【Jiu'er, you—don't be ridiculous! You're ruining Feng'er's reputation! What kind of terrible idea is this?】
Are we really going to let her leave with us? Besides, Sister Feng certainly wouldn't mind helping you fend off these unwanted suitors.
Feng Che's lips twitched slightly. She must have heard these words in Jiu'er's space. Oh well, he'd explain to her after he finished his business.
"Brother Feng, is what she said true?"
"Yes, it's true..." Feng Che said these words against his will, his ears turning red. He felt awkward, especially when he thought that Feng Qingxue could see it too.
Feng Qingxue stood there dumbfounded, her body seemingly frozen in place by an invisible force. Her eyes were filled with astonishment and bewilderment. Feng Che's words kept echoing in her ears. Although she knew they were false, they still stirred up waves in her heart.
"Qingxue?"
Yuehua pulled her thoughts back, only to find that everyone in the space was looking at her. Her face flushed slightly and she felt flustered. She wanted to explain but didn't know where to begin.
"I, I, I..."
"Senior Sister, you guys really kept it well hidden. I didn't notice anything amiss along the way," Bai Lisha teased.
“That’s right, even I didn’t notice,” Hei Xiangling agreed.
Little Phoenix stepped forward and took Feng Qingxue's hand: "Sister, does that mean we'll be getting wedding candy soon?"
"·····"
"No, you've all misunderstood me. Feng Erye and I aren't what you think. We're just friends." Feng Qingxue blushed as she listened to their words and quickly explained.
“I understand. My mother and father were friends first, and then they became partners,” Xiao Huang’er said earnestly.
"·····"
Seeing that the more Feng Qingxue explained, the less clear it became, she simply stopped explaining and decided to wait for Master Feng to arrive before explaining further. She continued to observe the situation outside.
Hearing Xiao Huang'er's words from not far away, Gong Mingyue paused, taken aback. Xiao Huang'er calling Jiu'er "Mother" and him "Father" didn't seem out of place; it felt...quite nice...
Lihua was half-believing, half-doubting, and looked dejected. She sighed softly, "I finally fell for someone, but it turns out they belong to someone else..."
“Miss Lihua, you are beautiful and kind-hearted. You will definitely meet someone even better than my second uncle. My second uncle is sometimes like a blockhead; he's not good at all…”
Ji Jiuying smiled and comforted Lihua.
Feng Che: ?
Li Hua looked at Ji Jiu Ying, "If he's not good, why does that woman like him?"
"..."
"Of course it's because, in Sister Feng's heart, Second Uncle is perfect, and no one can replace him."
Good heavens!
Feng Che watched as she made up a story so convincingly that he almost believed it himself!
