Chapter 353: The Crying Phoenix I
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Outside the ancestral hall.
Tang Yin saw a young girl kneeling in front of the ancestral tablets just as she pushed open the door of the ancestral hall. There were tears in her eyes and her voice turned shaky. “Qian Ning.”
‘I’m sorry, Qian Ning. I have caused you pain.
‘So, you can now run into my arms and express all your sadness.’
Tang Yin opened her arms for Qian Ning.
Qian Ning would always cry in Tang Yin’s embrace since young whenever Qian Ning was bullied or wronged.
They were master and servant. They were also sisters.
Tang Yin could predict Qian Ning’s action from then on but although her arms were stretched out, Qian Ning did not rush toward her. That young girl kneeling in front of the ancestral tablets did not move at all.
Tang Yin was shocked. ‘Is Qian Ning sick?’
Tang Yin walked toward Qian Ning when she thought of this.
Qian Ning’s soft muttering voice was heard by Tang Yin when she walked into the ancestral hall. Soon, Tang Yin’s beautiful face darkened.
“I must’ve heard it wrongly. Little Lady is a person who focuses more on love than friendship. She must be staying in the princess’s manor now and it’s impossible that she’ll return to the Tang family.” Qian Ning bit her lip. “I heard Little Lady’s voice just now. But, I must’ve heard it wrongly. She will never come back here.”
Tang Yin’s was infuriated now. She pulled at Qian Ning’s ear and scolded her.
“Now, is this a painful feeling? Or, is this a fake one?”
“It hurts! It hurts!” Qian Ning stood up because of Tang Yin’s action. Qian Ning nearly burst into tears because of the pain.
There was excitement in Qian Ning’s eyes when she saw the infuriated Tang Yin in front of her. Qian Ning’s tears ran down like a flowing river.
“Little Lady, you’re back. You’ve finally come back.”
Qian Ning threw herself into Tang Yin’s embrace. Qian Ning could not help but cry ceaselessly. She wanted to express all the sadness and grief which she had felt recently.
“Those people gave the Five Spirit Gra.s.s to Tang Yu. I wanted to go and steal the Five Spirit Gra.s.s but I was caught. The first elder protected me and just asked me to reflect on my mistake here. Little Lady, I’m sorry. I didn’t bring the Five Spirit Gra.s.s to you so you’re thrown out of the princess’s manor.”

Feng Ruqing’s face darkened when she heard what Qian Ning had said just as she stepped into the ancestral hall.
“Am I that kind of a person?”
Tang Yin glared at Qian Ning. “Qian Ning, I don’t know that you’ve turned quite bad when you’re not by my side. You said that Xiao Qing is unkind. Did Tang Yu teach you that?”
Qian Ning did not know what to say.
‘What did I say?
‘Little Lady has changed indeed!
‘Have you forgotten the reason you had when you initially approached Feng Ruqing? It’s because of Nan Xian.
‘Why do I think that you have never liked Nan Xian at all? If not, your change of heart seems a little bit too fast.’
Feng Ruqing smiled slightly. She scanned Qian Ning’s body and realized that Qian Ning’s knees were injured. She frowned slightly.
“You’re injured.”
Qian Ning was stunned. She was too excited just now that she had forgotten about her injuries.
Feng Ruqing did not say anything. She took out a Divine-Spirit Fruit from the medium. Then, she took out a white cloth. She squeezed the juice of the spirit fruit onto the cloth. After that, she gave the white cloth to Qian Ning.
“Your injuries are not serious. You don’t have to eat the Divine-Spirit Fruit. Just bandage your knees with the white cloth and your injuries will heal soon.”
Qian Ning looked at the white cloth given by Feng Ruqing. She finally realized why Little Lady liked Feng Ruqing so much.
Her gentleness, her attentiveness, and also her loving and caring heart. These were all the reasons why one fell for her.
The most important thing was that Feng Ruqing was beautiful.
Qian Ning took the white cloth from Feng Ruqing’s hand. “Thank you.”
