Li Ruolan's eyes widened, her heart filled with anger and resentment, but also with relief that the person was Feng Che. She respected Feng Che's character, and his sudden visit to the Feng family today was also for this matter.
However, given the immense power of the Feng family, would he be willing to marry into the Feng family for Xue'er's sake?
"Xue'er, now that you've consummated your marriage, why don't I speak to him about it tomorrow?"
Feng Qingxue quickly shook her head: "Mother, this matter is not urgent, I..."
"How can we not be anxious? You two have already consummated your marriage. What if you get pregnant with his child? You can't just go public with this while you're heavily pregnant. What will people think of you, the Feng family, and the Feng family?"
Feng Qingxue's face turned bright red: "Oh dear, Mother, you're making things more and more outrageous. I know you mean well, but such a thing happened so suddenly, and we need time to deal with it. Please don't get involved."
Seeing that she insisted on handling it herself, Li Ruolan sighed softly, "Alright, alright... then you can handle it yourself. If you don't understand anything, come and find your mother."
"Thank you, Mother."
"Alright, get some rest. We have to get up early tomorrow."
"knew."
After Li Ruolan left, Feng Qingxue stood by the window, gazing at the bright moon in the sky, lost in thought.
Was his sudden visit to the Feng family because of that matter? She wanted to ask but didn't know how to bring it up. Did he save her because of a promise he made to her before? She couldn't figure out what he was thinking, which was why she hadn't explained that matter to her mother in the first place.
Or should we go and ask him?
Feng Qingxue shook her head. How could she possibly say such a thing? She sighed softly and decided to make a plan for tomorrow. Just as she was about to close the window, a large hand stopped her. She suddenly looked up and met those dark eyes.
"You... how did you get here?"
"I've been here for a while, let's go outside and talk."
They've been here... for quite a while now? How come she didn't notice?
As he spoke, Feng Che turned and walked into the courtyard. Feng Qingxue also came to his side anxiously. Although Feng Che's face was expressionless, his uneasy hands under his sleeves betrayed him.
"Qingxue, about that matter... I said I would take responsibility for you. If you don't mind, I will propose marriage tomorrow after you inherit the family headship..."
Feng Qingxue looked up at him in disbelief, her hands and feet feeling weak, whether from nervousness or excitement.
"No, how could I mind, A-Che? You know what I'm thinking."
"only······"
Feng Qingxue hesitated, unable to speak.
"But are there still any concerns? Feel free to speak your mind."
"Tomorrow is the day I inherit the position of family head. Inheriting the position means I can only... I can only..."
Feng Qingxue gritted her teeth but couldn't bring herself to say it. Feng Che was slightly taken aback, but quickly understood what she meant.
"Don't worry about that. The betrothal gifts and dowry are just a formality. You can decide on those yourself."
Upon hearing this, a look of surprise flashed across Feng Qingxue's eyes. Did he really not mind at all?
For a large family, marrying into another's family is a taboo... What if it causes discord between him and the Feng family because of her?
"Will this have any impact on you? For example, will Grandpa Feng and Madam Feng agree to it...?" Feng Qingxue asked with some concern.
"Won't."
"real?"
Feng Che responded in a low voice, his gaze falling on her lips, his eyes slightly evasive.
"By the way, this jade pendant is for you. If you need to contact me, just put spiritual energy into it. If you put mental energy into it, it can also sense the other person's location."
Then, as if remembering something, Feng Che added, "This jade pendant can be used an unlimited number of times..."
Feng Qingxue was slightly taken aback, took the jade pendant from his hand, and smiled slightly.
Thank you.
"We are about to become husband and wife, so there's no need for thanks."
Feng Qingxue's face flushed again. Seeing her shy appearance, Feng Che recalled the scene by the ice spring and became uneasy. He coughed lightly and said, "Since everything has been agreed upon, I will send the message back to the Feng family and have them prepare the betrothal...dowry."
Feng Qingxue nodded.
"Then you go back to sleep first. I'll go and tell Grandpa Feng and your mother about this."
"Wait!"
Feng Qingxue quickly grabbed Feng Che's sleeve, "I'll go with you."
Feng Che turned and glanced at her for a long while.
"good--"
Then, with his other hand, he took her hand that was gripping his sleeve and held it in his palm. Feng Qingxue's pupils shrank, and she froze on the spot for a moment. Noticing her unusual behavior, Feng Che asked, "What's wrong?"
"N-nothing, let's go!"
After the two left together, Ji Jiuying and Qingling emerged from the space, narrowing their eyes as they looked in the direction the two had gone.
"They got married so quickly? But what was that thing they were talking about?"
Qingling shook her head: "If you don't know, sister, then I know even less."
At that moment, Yingyue appeared behind the two of them: "I think it must be about her disappearance a while ago."
Ji Jiuying looked at Yingyue in confusion: "What disappearance?"
Yingyue recounted the incident of Feng Qingxue's disappearance when she last inherited the position of family head. Coincidentally, it happened on the same day that Feng Qingxue caused a scene at the Feng family. Ji Jiuying instantly understood why her second uncle was nowhere to be seen that day.
"So, it's possible that Sister Feng went missing, and Second Master Feng went to rescue her, and sparks flew between them?"
