However, Feng Tianyu coughed out loud before Liu Rong could answer Feng Rushuang.

He was not coughing out blood but just to remind Nan Xian to let go of his hand.

Nan Xian ignored Feng Tianyu and continued to put Feng Ruqing’s palm in his hand.

Feng Tianyu somehow looked annoyed.

He likes the state preceptor, but his fondness was only limited to the state preceptor taking Feng Ruqing as his disciple.

Back then, he was reluctant for Feng Ruqing to marry Liu Yuchen, but he was forced to agree on the marriage when his daughter threatened to kill herself. Now, his daughter was finally divorced, and it was only natural for him to be reluctant for her daughter to be married to someone again.

Son-in-law and father-in-law… are always enemies.

“State preceptor…” Feng Tian finally tried to remind him. “You may let go of your hand now.”

Nan Xian finally turned to look at Feng Tianyu.

He slightly frowned and asked, “Who hurt you?”

Feng Tianyu honestly answered to Nan Xian in surprise. “Gu Zhenyang.”

“Two punches, two lives.”

Feng Tianyu was speechless.

‘Wait, that’s not the problem now. State preceptor, can you let go of your hand first? When will you stop holding her?’

“Nan Xian!”

Feng Rushuang rushed in front of Nan Xian before she could wait for Liu Rong’s response. She asked furiously. “Tell me, what’s your relationship with Feng Ruqing?”

Nan Xian looked coldly at Feng Rushuang as if he was thinking about something. However, he still could not come up with an idea after a while. So, he blurted out and called, “Xiao Qing.”

“Master, I’m Xiao Qing.” Qing Zhu’s little head popped out as it protested weakly.

“Xiao Qing, who is she?”

Feng Rushuang said nothing.

“Master, she’s Feng Rushuang.” Qing Zhu grudgingly humped, twice. “You have asked me the same questions twice, do you really have a memory of seven seconds? You asked me who she was just now and you have forgotten now.”

Feng Rushuang almost stopped breathing. Her delicate face was red with anger.

“State Preceptor, how could you be so heartless? Are you deliberately trying to distance yourself from me? Is it because of Feng Ruqing? Did you fall for her because she has turned pretty now? You came to send me off that day before I was sent to the barracks in borders!”

Nan Xian coldly replied, “Oh, Qing’er doesn’t like Xiao Qing so I threw it away that day.”

Feng Ruqing was stunned.

When did she hate Qing Zhu? How could she not know?

Perhaps only Qing Zhu knew what was going on. Its master was envious of it when Feng Ruqing said she wanted to give birth to a nest of little snakey. So, he got so envious and wanted to abandon it without caring for its feelings.

“But… but then you still watched me leaving?” Feng Rushuang bit her lip. Her eyes were red.

It was true that the state preceptor liked her, or else, why would he feel reluctant to send her off?

“Yup, it was because Xiao Qing told me that Qing’er would be happy if I killed you,” Nan Xian still spoke with a light voice, but his voice could easily send chills down a person’s spine. “But Qing’er told me not to meddle in her affairs, so I was thinking to teach you a lesson that time… it wasn’t considered as murder, is it?”

The man’s words were just like a pot of cold water that was poured onto Feng Rushuang’s heart, soaking it in coldness.

Before that, no matter how many times she lost to Feng Ruqing, she still did not feel hopeless.

It was because she had always believed that the state preceptor loved her!

Or else she could never have been able to bear to live through the sufferings and nightmarish life back in the barrack. She even had sneaked out just to come to see him!

Why…

Why would she get such an ending!

“No, that’s not it!” Feng Rushuang’s eyes were filled with agony. “Nan Xian, I’ve loved you for so many years! Why would you treat me like this?”
