They witnessed Li Hua and Feng Che's confession this morning clearly from their spatial dimension, and naturally knew that this whole thing was just a ploy to get rid of Li Hua.
“Miss Lihua, don’t just stare at us. If you don’t eat soon, the food will get cold…” Feng Che said with a smile.
"No, I need to keep an eye on you, because I suspect you two are lying to me."
"No, no, we really are!"
At this moment, for some reason, Feng Qingxue suddenly looked up, picked up a piece of fish and placed it in Feng Che's bowl. Even Feng Che was slightly taken aback for a moment, but after regaining his senses, he smiled and said, "Yes, let's eat!"
Feng Che thought to himself, "This little girl is too difficult to deal with!" Little did he know that the real trouble was yet to come.
After dinner, Lihua kept a close eye on the two of them, and they were forced to stay together, even in the rooms they were assigned. Only after they turned off the lights did Lihua dispel her suspicions and sigh softly. This love ended before it even began!
After realizing that Lihua had left, the two breathed a sigh of relief, and in an instant, the atmosphere in the room became subtle.
Feng Che spoke first, "Feng girl, today's incident was caused by Xiao Jiu's naughtiness. Please don't take it to heart. What I said was just to appease Li Hua. It was a temporary measure, so please don't mind it."
In the room, the candlelight flickered in the breeze, making the two people's faces flushed and their outlines clearly visible. Feng Qingxue found it somewhat amusing to watch Feng Che nervously explaining himself incoherently for fear of her misunderstanding.
A slight smile played on his lips: "Second Master Feng, I know you don't need to explain so much."
Actually, I...
Feng Qingxue thought for a long time, wanting to take the opportunity to say what was on her mind, but when she was about to speak, she remembered what he had said today. He said that he had no intention of getting married for the time being... She thought that if she told him, he would reject her just like he rejected Lihua. After thinking about it, she decided to give up on the matter.
"What?"
Feng Che looked at Feng Qingxue in confusion, and Feng Qingxue shook her head: "N-nothing!"
"Feng girl, you sleep here first. I'll find somewhere outside to make do."
“Wait a minute, Master Feng, this place is near the sea, and it can get windy and rainy at any time. It might be inconvenient to stay outside. Also, if Li Hua bumps into us, we'll have to explain ourselves. There's a soft couch over there. If you don't mind, Master Feng, you can make do with it for the night.”
Feng Qingxue didn't think much about it, she was just really worried about him. As for her reputation, she trusted him because that person was him, and she really didn't care.
Although Feng Qingxue's words made sense, Feng Che still felt it was somewhat inappropriate. After all, it was just a man and a woman alone together, and even if they were completely innocent, it would inevitably cause people to overthink things.
Just as he was about to refuse, Lihua reappeared outside the door.
"·····"
But it seems she was just passing by the outhouse...
At night, the wind blew across the sea, making the windows creak.
Two figures moved silently in the darkness, then slipped into one of the rooms.
By the dim moonlight, he could see the sleeping face of the girl on the bed. She seemed to be dreaming of something wonderful, and her mouth unconsciously turned up.
A tiny silver needle appeared in Ji Jiuying's hand. With a flick of her finger, the needle flew swiftly toward Lihua's neck, accompanied by a soft hum.
"Ah Yue, is this okay?"
Gong Mingyue stood in the darkness three meters away from the bed and responded in a low voice. A stream of spiritual energy continuously gathered from his palm, and wisps of spiritual energy enveloped Lihua.
Lost in her reverie, Lihua let out a painful murmur, her brows furrowed, as if she were having a terrible dream in which a demon had killed all her loved ones right before her eyes... Fear spread through her heart.
A scream pierced the sky, and Lihua sat up abruptly, unable to calm herself down for a long time. It was just a dream, so why did her heart hurt so much, so much that she couldn't breathe? How could she have such a terrible dream?
It was so real, as if it had actually happened. Those images lingered in her mind. After this ordeal, Lihua had no desire to sleep anymore. She quietly went to the balcony and stared blankly at the dark sea in front of her.
Ji Jiuying and Gong Mingyue returned to the room, and from the window they could see where Lihua was.
"It seems our guesses were right. Lihua is definitely not just a small fisherman on this island."
"Luckily I was cautious just now, otherwise I would have suffered a backlash."
Gong Mingyue hugged her from behind: "Jiu'er, if your mother doesn't break free of the restrictions tomorrow, what do you want to do?"
"Then it's a fight to the death..."
——
Feng Lan was also sleepless.
Looking at the Illusionary Demon Sword floating in front of her, she still couldn't remember anything, except for the headache. Helplessly, she slumped onto the table.
The Phantom Sword sensed something and nuzzled her arm.
"What's wrong?"
The hilt of the Illusionary Demon Sword flew into her hand on its own, as if by telepathy, and Feng Lan immediately knew what it wanted to do.
"You mean you want me to practice swordsmanship?"
Buzz—
The Illusionary Demon Sword made a sound, as if in response to her.
"But I have no spiritual power left, and I have no memory of my previous sword techniques..."
At this moment, the Illusionary Demon Sword seemed to stick to her hand, and Feng Lan's body involuntarily followed the movement of the Illusionary Demon Sword. Soon, that familiar feeling came again, and every move was so familiar.
Gradually, without the guidance of the Illusionary Demon Sword, she was able to wield the sword on her own, and the constraints in her mind became looser and looser.
Fragmented images drifted through Feng Lan's mind, so quietly and silently...
The next morning, Canghai Island was as usual, but the atmosphere in the air had become somewhat oppressive.
Feng Che and Ji Jiuying exchanged a glance, both seeing confusion in each other's eyes. When they arrived at the entrance of Tongxin Hall, there was no one in line, and a bad feeling began to spread in their hearts.
"Could it be that that bastard Kamakura found out about Mother?!"
"Just ask someone." Feng Che looked at the crowd coming and going, and casually pulled a man aside to ask, "Brother, why didn't Physician Canglan come to Tongxin Hall today?"
"You don't know this, do you? Today is the wedding day of the Island Lord and the Divine Physician Canglan."
The two women stared wide-eyed. What was going on? Why hadn't their mother mentioned this to them?
"You're both shocked, aren't you?" the man said with a smile, looking at their expressions.
"Yes, yes, it was so sudden..." Feng Che said perfunctorily. The man added, "That's right, there wasn't a word of it beforehand."
After saying that, the man looked around and leaned closer, saying, "I've heard some inside information. I heard that the Divine Physician Canglan was unwilling to get married, but somehow he suddenly agreed, and in such a hasty manner."
The two exchanged a glance, and Feng Che asked again, "Is that so?"
"That's right."
