Chapter 29: The Youth of the General Manor III

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Her soul was much stronger than other people, so she could sense the danger. However, her body was too weak and too plump, which prevented her from escaping it. If someone didn’t rescue her on time, she would not have survived the arrow.

Feng Ruqing turned around. She saw a youth wearing long sleeves standing not far away from her.

The youth had a cold and emotionless expression as if the incident that had happened just now was not related to him.

“Thank you…” Feng Ruqing pursed her lips and thanked him sincerely.

The young guy seemed calm but deep in his heart, he mocked her sincerity.

‘This woman… knows how to say thank you too?’

“I saved you because I don’t want grandpa to feel sad. Although he does not want to see you, he won’t wish for something bad to happen to you,” he said with apathetic eyes and a mean tone. He added, “One more thing, since I have saved you once, you better not appear in front of Dai’er. She is afraid to see you.”

Dai’er had a disability since birth—she had autism. However when she first met Feng Ruqing, maybe due to their blood relation, she tried to approach her.

But what did Feng Ruqing do?

Just because Dai’er surprised Feng Ruqig unintentionally, she gave Dai’er a ruthless kick and even bullied her mercilessly for many years after the incident.

This caused her parents to lock Dai’er at home. They did not dare to let her out from home again.

Feng Ruqing was in a daze, she knew that the real bully was the owner of her body, but she still unknowingly felt sad.

“I am sorry…”

This apology was made on behalf of the original Feng Ruqing. Sincerity could be seen in her eyes.

The youth was taken aback and shocked. He lowered his gaze and clenched his fists.

He never expected Feng Ruqing to apologize to him, but he kept warning himself that he should stop being soft-hearted to her again.

Despite countless times of being soft-hearted, their kindness only led to more hurt and damage.

“The person you should apologize to is not me, but Dai’er. She is the one hurt by you the most. Moreover, my grandpa is very old now and he is not feeling very well recently. I know that you had moved out of the palace. I beg you not to come close to the general manor, they cannot endure any forms of hurt now.”

Feng Ruqing stayed silent. She knew that no matter how many times she apologized, it would not erase the pain caused by her.

The only thing she could do now was to spend her whole life making up for their loss.

“That’s it, princess. I won’t give you any more advice. I just hope that you will think for the sake of His Majesty. He is a … very good father. You have hurt so many people, please don’t hurt him anymore.”

The youth glanced at Feng Ruqing with an icy and distant expression, then he turned and walked toward the other side of the street.

Actually, he did not even know the reason behind his sudden decision to rescue Feng Ruqing. It was obvious that she was the culprit behind Dai’er’s suffering!

Maybe… he did not have the heart to see her die in front of him as she was the only bloodline left by his aunt.

Or it might be due to the incident that had happened at the beast court. The words she said to Feng Rushuang somehow gave him a glimmer of hope that she might have changed?

However, he did not dare to bet on it. He was afraid that if he lost the bet, what waited for the whole general’s manor was another heartbreak.

Feng Ruqing stood in place, watching the youth leave.

At this moment, her heart was filled with agony and despair.

She felt sorry for Nalan Dai’er who had suffered so much grievances. She even felt very sorry for the old general who had been pissed off by her at such an age.

“Looks like I need to pay a visit to the general’s manor after I have made the necessary arrangements for the princess’s manor. Will he be shocked to see me then?”
