"Surely she would never want Qing"er to know about that.""But, she"s too naive. She did not conceal the truth very well."
"Qing"er is very smart. Surely, she would know about our relations.h.i.+p.
"But, she"s quite smug and she thought that Qing"er really believes what she said."
But, they were indeed mother and son. Nan Xian knew perfectly well what was up in Suyi"s sleeves.
Feng Ruqing nodded, approvingly. "It"s really funny. But, I like her."
"I like her beauty, her physique, and also her ident.i.ty as Nan Xian"s mother."
Nan Xian"s face sank. "You cannot like her."
"Why?" Feng Ruqing was shocked.
"I like Nan Xian and that"s why I like Suyi. Isn"t that nice?
"Don"t tell me that you want us to be enemies?"
"No." Nan Xian hugged Feng Ruqing. He said, calmly, "She"s not as beautiful as me. You don"t have to like her."
Feng Ruqing was speechless.
Nan Xian continued calmly. "If she wants to kidnap you in the future, you don"t have to bother about her."
Feng Ruqing kept quiet.
"What"s wrong with Nan Xian? Is he jealous of his own mother?"
"Furthermore…" Nan Xian stopped talking for a while. "She"s too old for you. It"s not a good match."
"Nan Xian." Feng Ruqing raised her head. "What"s wrong with you today?"
"I"m fine." Nan Xian lowered his eyes. He smiled softly. He seemed quite gentle. "I won"t allow anybody to take you away from me."
"No one could do that!"
"Your mother is just like you." Feng Ruqing smiled. "So, I fount out about the truth very soon. By the way, what"s the matter with the Mu family?"
Nan Xian"s fingers froze midair. His gaze became cold and distant. He seemed to be extremely cool.
"Qing"er, you just have to remember that I have only my mother and I don"t have a father. You don"t have to acknowledge him even if you meet him."
Feng Ruqing squinted. "Did the Mu family hurt Suyi before?"
"Yes." Nan Xian remained calm. But, his calmness was frightening. "He got a concubine but he did not allow my mother to leave him. Moreover, he had even harmed her many times for that woman."
Some pain remained in one"s life forever once they were inflicted upon them. That pain was unforgivable.
Feng Ruqing was quiet. She clenched her fists tightly. Suddenly, she laughed coldly.
"That kind of person has no right to be your father! He doesn"t even have any right to be together with Suyi!"
Feng Ruqing could clearly understand what kind of pain Suyi had endured in the Mu family just by listening to what Nan Xian said.
"That kind of b.a.s.t.a.r.d! He has no right to ask for Suyi"s forgiveness even if he regrets it in the future!"
Nan Xian smiled a little. He did not tell Feng Ruqing that he almost died in the Mu family when he was young.
"She did not see what kind of man he was. She"s not like you."
Feng Ruqing"s facial expression darkened. She did not know how to respond to that.
"Why do I feel like he"s boasting about himself?"
"I was quite naive too…"
"The previous owner was quite naive and that was why she had fallen for Liu Yuchen."
Nan Xian frowned slightly. "That was not you."
At that moment, Feng Ruqing was stunned. She stared at Nan Xian.
"Does he know that?"
Nan Xian seemed to not notice the change in her facial expression. He smiled softly. "I have always felt that that was not you. The day we first met was when you came to Southern Bamboo Grove."
